Taysom Hill Garners QB Eligibility For Week 11

New Orleans Saints quarterback Taysom Hill has been granted QB eligibility for Sunday's contest versus Atlanta in the wake of Drew Brees' (ribs) injury situation. While New Orleans has not yet made it official who will start under center against the Falcons, Jameis Winston was the primary fill-in when Brees was unable to finish Sunday's […]

Mike Clevinger Will Undergo Tommy John Surgery

The San Diego Padres and starter Mike Clevinger (elbow) agreed to a two-year contract extension through 2022 on Monday. The team also announced the right-hander will undergo Tommy John surgery and miss the 2021 season. Clevinger registered a 2.84 ERA after joining the Friars midseason, but an elbow impingement limited him to just one inning […]

J.K. Dobbins Sees Role Dialed Back Upon Mark Ingram's Return

Baltimore Ravens rookie running back J.K. Dobbins received just five carries and made one reception in Sunday's loss to New England, a significant step back in his role from where he sat while Mark Ingram II was absent due to injury. While Dobbins has yet to ascend to the fervor around his fantasy stock that […]

A.J. Green Sees Confounding Season Continue In Week 10

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green was once among the cream of the crop when it came to fantasy production during the previous decade, but following his second catchless contest of 2020 on Sunday, he has dipped out of consideration in the majority of season-long formats. Despite the exciting high-octane passing game of rookie signal-caller […]

Allen Lazard Nears Return From Injured Reserve

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard (abdominal) has until Wednesday to be activated from Injured Reserve, a deadline that is "probably pretty promising" that he'll meet, per Packers head coach Matt LaFleur. Lazard has been out of the mix since Week 3, having made a strong impression in his final game before the injury […]

Allen Robinson II, Cole Kmet Cleared To Suit Up Monday

Chicago Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson II (knee) and tight end Cole Kmet (groin) have both been cleared to play in Monday's contest versus the Vikings. Robinson has proven to be an integral cog in the passing game, having logged at least 70 receiving yards in six of his last seven outings. His presence in […]

Monday Night Football Matchups Analysis: Vikings vs Bears

On the surface, we will be staring down at another potentially disappointing Monday Night contest between the inept offense of the Chicago Bears and the questionable defense of the Minnesota Vikings. With any luck, we will have a similar scenario last week: two teams with underwhelming performances combining to create an entertaining game. The Patriots […]

Monday Night Football DFS Lineup Picks for FanDuel, DraftKings - Vikings vs. Bears

After a rather tilting main slate on Sunday, I was happy to have some success on the Sunday night showdown slate, so hopefully, you read yesterday's article and had some shares of Rex Burkhead, Willie Snead, and Jakobi Meyers in those lineups. Week 10 of Monday Night Football brings us an NFC North matchup between […]

Monday night brings a classic NFC North matchup between the Minnesota Vikings and the Chicago Bears with plenty of chances to play props and win with Monkey Knife Fight.

Chicago Adds Lamar Miller To Active Roster For Monday’s Game

Chicago Bears running back Lamar Miller will officially be active for Monday's contest versus Minnesota, marking his first game back in the league since the 2018 campaign. Miller will have the opportunity to see carries out of the backfield with David Montgomery (concussion) out, and Chicago having just Cordarrelle Patterson and Ryan Nall at their […]

Tyler Lockett Dealing With Knee Sprain

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (knee) is dealing with what head coach Pete Carroll described as a "bit of a knee sprain," heading into Thursday's contest against the Cardinals. Lockett was listed as a non-participant on the team's estimated practice schedule Monday, meaning that he'll need to show some progress if he's going to […]

Seattle Expects Carlos Hyde To Return For Thursday’s Game

Seattle Seahawks running back Carlos Hyde (hamstring) is trending toward returning for Thursday's game against the Cardinals, per head coach Pete Carroll. Seattle's backfield situation has been muddled over the past three weeks with Hyde and Chris Carson (foot) having been out of the mix, but as Carson also continues to work his way back, […]

Andy Dalton Activated From COVID-19 List

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Andy Dalton was activated from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Monday. Head coach Mike McCarthy stated that he and his staff would take things "day by day" with Dalton and the team's quarterback position, but there's every reason to believe Dalton will be starting under center when the Cowboys take the field in […]

Zach Ertz Designated To Return From IR

The Philadelphia Eagles designated tight end Zach Ertz (ankle) to return from Injured Reserve on Monday. The Eagles are getting completely healthy as an offense for the stretch run. There's no guarantee that Ertz will be able to return as early as Week 11 against the Browns, but he's getting closer to coming back after […]

Eric Fisher, Mitchell Schwartz Placed On COVID-19 List

The Kansas City Chiefs placed both starting offensive tackles Eric Fisher and Mitchell Schwartz on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Monday. It sounds as though Fisher and Schwartz have been deemed as high-risk close contacts of another individual who tested positive for COVID-19. That makes them candidates to clear the league's protocols and play in Week […]

Dolphins Sign Zach Sieler To Contract Extension

The Miami Dolphins signed defensive lineman Zach Sieler to a contract extension on Monday that will keep him with the team through the 2023 season. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. Sieler was a seventh-round pick out of Ferris State in 2018 by the Ravens, but he's stepped up for Miami's defensive line […]

Sam Darnold Won't Return In Week 11

New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold (shoulder) will miss the Week 11 game against the Chargers, according to head coach Adam Gase. In his place, Joe Flacco will make his fourth start of the season. The veteran signal-caller has gone 59-for-104 for 659 yards, four touchdowns and two interceptions in four games (three starts) for […]

Andy Janovich Going On COVID-19 List

The Cleveland Browns are placing fullback Andy Janovich on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Monday, according to a source. The Browns shut down their facility on Monday after a player tested positive for COVID-19, so we're assuming that Janovich was that player. There's still a chance that he could be cleared from the league's protocols in […]

Drew Brees Set To Miss Multiple Starts

The New Orleans Saints aren't planning to put quarterback Drew Brees (lung, ribs) on Injured Reserve, but he's currently set to miss multiple starts. ESPN is reporting that Brees is suffering from broken ribs and a collapsed lung after a hard hit in the Week 10 win over the 49ers. The 41-year-old future Hall of […]

Jets Claim Pat Elflein Off Waivers

The New York Jets claimed former Vikings offensive lineman Pat Elflein off waivers on Monday, according to a source. Elflein was put on Injured Reserve after injuring his thumb in practice after the season-opener against the Packers and he hasn't played since. The Vikings chose to move on and waived him last weekend. It's unclear […]

49ers Put Arik Armstead On COVID-19 List

The San Francisco 49ers placed defensive lineman Arik Armstead on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Monday. It's unclear if Armstead tested positive for COVID-19 or if he was deemed a high-risk close contact of someone else who did. Either way, he'll have plenty of time to clear the league's COVID-19 protocols with their bye coming in […]

Drew Lock Could Miss Practice Wednesday

Denver Broncos quarterback Drew Lock (ribs) has a muscle strain around his ribs, according to a source. Nothing is broken, but head coach Vic Fangio said that Lock is questionable for practice on Wednesday. Depending on how much Lock can do in practice this week, he could very well be questionable to play in Week […]

Chiefs Sign Andy Reid, Brett Veach To Extensions

The Kansas City Chiefs signed head coach Andy Reid and general manager Brett Veach to contract extensions on Monday, less than a year after they helped lead the team to their first Super Bowl win in 50 years. The 62-year-old Reid won his 230th career game in Week 9 over the Panthers, moving him into […]

Braves Sign Drew Smyly To One-Year Deal

The Atlanta Braves signed left-hander Drew Smyly to a one-year, $11 million deal on Monday. The 31-year-old went 0-1 with a 3.42 ERA in five starts and two relief outings for the Giants last season after San Francisco signed him to a one-year deal in January. He was released by the Rangers after going 4-7 […]

Washington Pleased With Alex Smith

Washington Football Team head coach Ron Rivera thinks quarterback Alex Smith has successfully completed his journey from a gruesome leg injury to become the team's starter. Smith was 38-for-55 for 390 yards in the narrow Week 10 loss to the Lions. The 36-year-old has two years left on his contract after this season, although releasing […]

Broncos Defense Blown Out In Week 10

The Denver Broncos Defense continued their recent slide in the Week 10 blowout loss to the Raiders by a score of 37-12 on Sunday. The Broncos defense had been performing above expectations, considering all of their injuries to key defenders, but they've been exploited in the last four weeks against the Chiefs, Chargers, Falcons and […]

Joe Flacco To Start Again In Week 11

New York Jets head coach Adam Gase said that quarterback Joe Flacco will make another start in Week 11 against the Chargers with Sam Darnold (shoulder) injured. The Jets had their bye in Week 10, but it appears that Darnold still isn't ready to return to the starting job. The 35-year-old Flacco came close to […]

Brandon McManus Attempts Just Two Field Goals

Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus hasn't missed a kick since Week 7 against the Chiefs, but he only attempted two field goals in the 37-12 blowout loss to the Raiders in Week 10. He was able to help his fantasy managers with a 50-yard make in one of his two tries on Sunday, but the […]

Noah Fant Disappoints Against Raiders

Denver Broncos tight end Noah Fant was targeted seven times in the Week 10 loss to the Raiders, but he brought in just three of those targets for a season-low 18 yards in the 37-12 defeat. The good news is that Fant has moved past an ankle injury that caused him to miss a game […]
