Hunter Henry Should Bounce Back Against Jets

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry was quiet during the season debut against the Miami Dolphins. He hauled in all three of his targets for 31 yards in the loss.

Bass Pro Shops NRA Night Race: DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy NASCAR Lineup Picks

After running on dirt at Bristol Motor Speedway in March, the NASCAR Cup Series returns to the famed short track this weekend to compete on the concrete. What a relief for some drivers. But, Bristol is one of the most challenging tracks on the circuit. Turning sub-15 second lap times, things happen very quickly at […]

Hector Neris Earns Relief Win With Two Strong Innings

Philadelphia Phillies relief pitcher Hector Neris allowed one run across two innings to earn the relief win on Thursday against the Cubs. The former closer has had an up-and-down season, but he's been better lately and is a candidate to earn saves as closer Ian Kennedy has struggled mightily. Kennedy has a 6.32 ERA since […]

Will Fuller Won't Play In Week 2

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Will Fuller (personal) won't suit up for the Week 2 matchup against the Buffalo Bills. He missed Week 1 while serving the final game of his suspension from last season. It doesn't sound like Fuller is ready to play yet, so he'll miss at least one more week. That means, DeVante […]

Nelson Agholor Should Have Success Versus Jets

New England Patriots wide receiver Nelson Agholor made a strong team debut during the season opener against the Miami Dolphins. He hauled in five of his seven targets for 72 yards and one touchdown. The Pats brought Agholor in this offseason to be their deep threat in the passing game. It worked in Week 1 […]

Kyle Rudolph Catches Two Passes In Week 2 Loss

New York Giants tight end Kyle Rudolph caught both of his targets for 25 yards in Thursday's 30-29 loss to the Washington Football Team. With starting tight end Evan Engram (calf) ruled out the first two games, Rudolph has been targeted seven times. The 31-year-old has four catches for 33 yards in 2021. Rudolph is […]

Jakobi Meyers An Interesting PPR Option For Week 2

New England Patriots wide receiver Jakobi Meyers was unsurprisingly busy during the season opener versus the Miami Dolphins. He saw nine targets and hauled in six of them for 44 yards in the loss. Clearly, rookie quarterback Mac Jones has found a safety net in the passing game with Meyers. None of those receptions were […]

J.T. Realmuto Exits After Hit By Pitch, X-Rays Negative

Philadelphia Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto (elbow) left Thursday's win over the Cubs after being hit by a pitch in the left elbow/triceps area, according to Jim Salisbury of NBC Sports Philadelphia. Andrew Knapp came in at catcher after Realmuto posted another solid game as he collected an RBI and scored a run. According to manager […]

James White Might See Uptick In Usage

New England Patriots running back James White was able to get significantly involved during the Week 1 loss to the Miami Dolphins. He only carried the ball four times, but hauled in six receptions through the air. The Patriots could lean on White more frequently now after Damien Harris had a critical fumble late in […]

Graham Gano Drills Five Field Goals In Week 2 Loss

New York Giants kicker Graham Gano converted all five of his field-goal attempts in Thursday's 30-29 loss to the Washington Football Team. He was also 2-for-2 in field-goal tries beyond 50 yards. The 34-year-old has now converted 35 straight field goals. Gano is a strong kicking option, but his production relies on an inconsistent Giants […]

J.J. Taylor Could Sneak Up The Depth Chart

New England Patriots running back J.J. Taylor was not seen during the season opener against the Miami Dolphins. Instead, the Pats went with Damien Harris, James White, and Rhamondre Stevenson in the backfield. Harris saw 23 carries, but had a critical fumble, which could cost him playing time in Week 2. Stevenson was barely seen […]

The Book of Eli - Who is Elijah Mitchell?

It's crazy that just a few short weeks ago, millions of fantasy managers around the globe were proudly smashing the draft button to acquire 49ers rookie running back Trey Sermon on their rosters. Thousands of articles were written and plenty of tweets were carefully crafted, detailing just how perfect Sermon would fit into head coach […]

Damien Harris Could Have Reduced Role

New England Patriots running back Damien Harris might've peaked during the season opener. He rushed 23 times for 100 yards in the close loss to the Miami Dolphins in Week 1. Sadly, Harris lost a fumble, which ended up costing the Patriots the game. It sounds like the team could reduce his role going forward […]

Darius Slayton Hauls In 33-Yard Touchdown In Week 2

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton caught 3-of-6 targets for 54 yards and a touchdown in Thursday's 30-29 loss to the Washington Football Team. QB Daniel Jones connected with Slayton on a 33-yard touchdown strike to give the Giants a 20-13 lead. The 24-year-old continues to be a downfield threat and is averaging 19.8 […]

Bryce Harper Homers Again To Pad His MVP Case

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Bryce Harper had another monster game on Thursday as he launched a three-run homer and had two doubles in a wild 17-8 win over the Cubs. Harper is among the hottest hitters on the planet; over his last 22 games, the NL MVP candidate has 10 homers, 10 doubles, 26 RBI, and […]

Mac Jones Has Excellent Matchup Versus Jets

New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones looked sharp during his NFL debut against the Miami Dolphins in Week 1. He threw for 281 yards and one touchdown in what ended up being a close loss. This time around, Jones will get a much easier matchup against the New York Jets defense. A unit that allowed […]

Kenny Golladay Sees Eight Targets, Quiet In Week 2 Loss

New York Giants wide receiver Kenny Golladay secured three of eight targets for 38 yards in Thursday's 30-29 loss to the Washington Football Team. He saw a bump in targets from Week 1, but Giants quarterback Daniel Jones and Golladay have been unable to build a rapport in the first two games. The former Detroit Lion […]

Kolby Allard Roughed Up In Relief Appearance

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Kolby Allard missed his previous start due to a non-COVID related illness. The organization decided to have him piggyback right-hander Glenn Otto who started Thursday's game against the Houston Astros. Allard didn't fare well in his outing and allowed five earned runs, four walks, and registered four strikeouts in 3 2/3 […]

Glenn Otto Torched For Seven Runs

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Glenn Otto cruised through three innings during Thursday's game against the Houston Astros. It looked like Otto was going to have a bounce back game until the fourth inning. He allowed seven runs that inning and finished with seven hits allowed, four walks, and three strikeouts in 3 1/3 innings of […]

Odubel Herrera Drives In Three In Win Over Cubs

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Odubel Herrera went 2-for-5 with three RBI, two runs scored, and a walk to help beat the Cubs on Thursday.

Saquon Barkley Rushes For 56 Yards In Week 2 Loss

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (knee) rushed 13 times for 57 yards and hauled in two of three targets for 12 yards in Thursday's 30-29 loss to the Washington Football Team.

Evan Longoria Hits 13th Homer Of Season Thursday

San Francisco Giants third baseman Evan Longoria was at it again in Thursday's 7-4 loss to the Padres, going 2-for-4 with a double and a solo home run.

Jack Mayfield Drives In Four Thursday

Los Angeles Angels infielder Jack Mayfield had a four-RBI game during Thursday's 9-3 win over the Chicago White Sox. He went 1-for-4 with a bases-loaded double, an RBI groundout, a run, and two strikeouts. Mayfield is slashing .202/.260/.384 with nine home runs and two stolen bases across 71 games thus far. He can be left […]

San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Kevin Gausman fell to 14-6 in Thursday's 7-4 loss to the Padres.

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Austin Hays made his one hit count in Thursday's 3-2 extra-innings win over the Yankees, going 1-for-5 with an RBI single to win the game and a strikeout.

Jean Segura Drives In Three And Scores Three Runs Versus Cubs

Philadelphia Phillies second baseman Jean Segura went 3-for-6 with three RBI and three runs scored in a wild 17-8 win over the Cubs on Thursday night. He's not the most heralded Phillie, but Segura has pieced together another strong season in red and white as he's slashing a healthy .298/.358/.443 with 12 homers, nine steals, […]

Early-Season Dynasty Trade Targets

After one week of NFL action, the fantasy overreaction is already at a critical mass. Seasoned dynasty league managers have learned to take a patient, long-term approach to roster construction. Others are in the business of making knee-jerk reactions and filling their trade block with underperforming players from the results of a single game. We […]

Ryan Mountcastle Hits 29th Homer Of Season Thursday

Baltimore Orioles first baseman/outfielder Ryan Mountcastle went 1-for-5 with a solo home run and two strikeouts in Thursday's 3-2 extra-innings win over the Yankees. Mountcastle demolished a sixth-inning Jordan Montgomery pitch over the center-field wall for his 29th HR of the season. The 24-year-old now holds the O's record for most HR by a rookie. […]
