Randall Cobb Shouldn't Be Trusted Against Patriots

Houston Texans wide receiver Randall Cobb has a tough matchup on tap against the Patriots Defense in Week 11. Cobb has seen at least five targets in five contests this year, though he could be hard-pressed to reach that number against New England. Their defense has surrendered the second-fewest targets per game to wideouts. Teammates […]

Mark Ingram II Absent From Thursday’s Practice

Baltimore Ravens running back Mark Ingram II (non-injury related) did not practice Thursday, adding a wrinkle to his status for Sunday's contest against Tennessee. Ingram has battled injuries throughout 2020, but this appears to be a separate issue that should gain clarity throughout the week. Baltimore's backfield relied upon a three-headed by-committee division of labor […]

Brandin Cooks In The WR3 Range For Week 11

Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks is coming off a quiet performance last week against the Browns. Despite this, the former Ram is averaging 9.4 targets per game over his last five contests, which puts him squarely in the WR2 conversation most weeks. However, this week's matchup is not like most weeks, as the Patriots […]

Joe Mixon Still Absent From Practice, Week 11 Status In Doubt

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (foot) has been one of the most watched practice participants of 2020 over the past handful of weeks, yet Thursday provided little by way of progress in his return from a foot injury. Mixon has been listed as a "DNP" both Wednesday and Thursday, leading to the belief that […]

C.J. Ham Lands On COVID-19 Reserve List

Minnesota Vikings fullback C.J. Ham has been placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list, although that does not necessarily mean that Ham has tested positive for the virus. Having touched the ball just five times this season, Ham has essentially no fantasy intrigue, but sharing a backfield room with Dalvin Cook potentially could throw Sunday's plans versus Dallas […]

Myles Garrett Misses Practice Thursday, Hopeful To Play Sunday

Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett (illness) missed practice both Wednesday and Thursday, throwing his availability for Sunday's game against Philadelphia into flux. But the organization expects Garrett to return in at least a limited capacity on Friday, which would begin to trend him in the right direction for taking the field. The Browns Defense […]

Cardinals Defense Loses Corey Peters, Jordan Phillips To Injury

The Arizona Cardinals placed defensive lineman Corey Peters (knee) and Jordan Phillips (hamstring) on Injured Reserve on Thursday, thereby officially ruling the duo out for their Week 11 matchup against Seattle. Domata Peko was brought in to help serve as depth on the defensive front, but with both players having logged a pair of sacks […]

Jaguars Defense Gets D.J. Hayden Back For Week 11

Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback D.J. Hayden (hamstring) will be activated off of Injured Reserve to take the field for Sunday's game versus Pittsburgh. Hayden has started just one of the four games that he has appeared in this season for the Jaguars, having accrued 13 total tackles and one pass defensed in that span. Even with […]

Tyler Lockett Gets Green Light To Suit Up Thursday

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (knee) may not have been able to practice heading into Thursday's contest versus Arizona, but he has been given the thumbs up to take the field. Lockett had the defining performance of his career versus the Cardinals earlier this season when he hauled in 15 receptions for 200 yards […]

Chris Carson, Travis Homer Ruled Out For Thursday’s Contest

Seattle Seahawks running backs Chris Carson (foot) and Travis Homer (knee, thumb) have both officially been ruled inactive for Thursday's game against the Cardinals, paving the way for the duo of Carlos Hyde and DeeJay Dallas to handle the backfield load. Carson's absence will now stretch into a fourth week, as he will have ample […]

Tee Higgins Held Out Of Practice Thursday Due To Illness

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins (illness) was kept out of practice Thursday, making his status for Sunday's game versus Washington unclear. Higgins has emerged as a favorite target of fellow rookie, Joe Burrow, since Week 1, having thrust his name into Offensive Rookie of the Year conversation with 40 receptions for 603 yards and […]

Clyde Edwards-Helaire Misses Thursday’s Practice With Illness

Kansas City Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire (illness) was held out of practice Thursday, thereby throwing his status for Sunday's game versus the Raiders into flux. Since Edwards-Helaire's breakout game in Week 6 against Buffalo, he has seen a sharp downturn in production as Kansas City has both focused more heavily in the passing game, […]

Sammy Watkins Limited During Thursday’s Practice

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins (calf) popped up on the team's injury report again Thursday as a limited practice participant, this time due to a calf ailment. Watkins has been out of the mix since Week 5 due to a recurrent hamstring injury and was trending toward being cleared to play Sunday versus […]

Will Fuller V Faces Tough Test Against Patriots

Houston Texans wide receiver Will Fuller V faces a tough matchup in Week 11 against the Patriots. New England's defense has surrendered the second-fewest targets per game and the 10th-fewest receiving yards to opposing wideouts this season. However, they've also allowed 12 touchdowns to receivers, which is the seventh-most in the league. That just so […]

Duke Johnson An RB2 Play If He Suits Up

Houston Texans running back Duke Johnson (illness) was able to practice in a limited fashion on Thursday. That's a step in the right direction for Johnson, who was unable to take the practice field on Wednesday. If he's able to go, he'll be looking at an RB2-like workload, as he's handled 18 and 14 touches […]

Deshaun Watson Gets Bounce-Back Spot In Week 11

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson gets a great chance to redeem himself against the Patriots in Week 11 after last week's dud. Week 10 was the first time Watson has failed to throw for at least 250 yards this year and just the third time that he's been held to one touchdown pass- that's how […]

Eric Fisher, Mitchell Schwartz Good To Go For Sunday

Kansas City Chiefs offensive tackles Eric Fisher and Mitchell Schwartz were activated from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Thursday and are good to go for Week 11 against the division-rival Raiders. It's great news for KC's offensive line, quarterback Patrick Mahomes and the running game as they look to avenge their loss earlier this season to […]

Eagles To Visit With Jordan Howard

The Philadelphia Eagles are bringing in free-agent running back Jordan Howard for a visit. Howard was a free-agent bust for the Dolphins after playing in just five games for them this year. He was cut three days ago and passed through waivers unclaimed, so he's free to sign with any team at this point. Howard […]

Corey Clement, Vinny Curry Placed On COVID-19 List

The Philadelphia Eagles placed running back Corey Clement and defensive end Vinny Curry on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Thursday as close contacts of an individual that tested positive for coronavirus. Wide receivers J.J. Arcega-Whiteside, John Hightower and Deontay Burnett were also put on the COVID-19 list on Thursday. Miles Sanders is the team's lead running […]

Alvin Kamara Doesn't Practice Thursday

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (foot) wasn't seen at practice on Thursday. Kamara was able to get in a limited practice on Wednesday, so the Saints may just be giving him a little breather similar to a few weeks ago when the star running back was dealing with some sore toes. It's too […]

Davante Adams In Danger Of Missing Week 11?

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams (ankle) missed his second straight day of practice on Thursday with an ankle injury. Two missed practices to start the week is never a good sign for any player, especially one with Green Bay, as their medical staff is typically one of the most cautious in the league. […]

Marquez Valdes-Scantling Hard To Trust In Week 11

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling will have a tough matchup in Week 11 against a Colts Defense that is allowing the seventh fewest fantasy points to opposing receivers this season. Valdez-Scantling came up huge last week, posting 149 receiving yards and now has three touchdowns over his last two games played. But it […]

Matt Arnold Promoted To General Manager

The Milwaukee Brewers promoted Matt Arnold to senior vice president and general manager on Thursday. The 41-year-old joined the Brewers as a vice president and assistant general manager in October of 2015. He was promoted to senior vice president and assistant general manager in June of 2019. Milwaukee has made the playoffs each of the […]

Davante Adams Will Try To Stay Hot In Week 11

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams will try and extend his touchdown streak to five games in Week 11 when the Packers take on the Colts. Adams (ankle) has been limited in practice this week but currently is trending towards being able to suit up. He will go up against a Colts Defense that […]

Quinton Dunbar Goes On Injured Reserve

The Seattle Seahawks placed cornerback Quinton Dunbar (knee) on Injured Reserve on Thursday and activated defensive tackle Damon Harrison and running back Bo Scarbrough from the practice squad in corresponding moves. It's unclear if Dunbar will be able to make it back this season. He has 30 tackles (28 solo), one interception and five passes […]

Aaron Jones To Face Stout Colts Defense In Week 11

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones will have a tough task producing in Week 11 against a Colts Defense that is allowing the third fewest fantasy points to opposing backs. Jones opened the season with touchdowns in each of his first five games but has gone scoreless for two games in a row. The […]

Aaron Rodgers To Have Toughest Test Against Colts

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers will go up against a Colts Defense that is allowing the fewest fantasy points to opposing passers this season. The Colts have allowed only two quarterbacks to post 20+ fantasy points against them and only 11 passing touchdowns through 10 games. The matchup is stout but Rodgers is having […]
