Brandon Allen Out, Ryan Finley To Start Week 15

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Brandon Allen (knee) has been ruled out of Week 15's matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Allen left his Week 14 game early after injuring his knee. He did not practice all week and will be replaced at the quarterback position by Ryan Finley. While Allen has not been an effective fantasy quarterback […]

Larry Nance Jr. Remains Sidelined

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Larry Nance Jr. (head) was unable to suit up for the preseason matchup on Friday. He is still in concussion protocol, so it's unclear if Nance will be ready in time for the regular season opener. Kevin Love (calf) is unlikely to be ready by next week, so Nance could be looking […]

Kevin Love Might Miss Season Opener

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love (calf) is in danger of sitting out the regular season opener next week. Head coach J.B. Bickerstaff is unsure if Love will be ready in time, but mentioned he has been progressing well. However, the Cavs want to make sure Love is fully healthy before letting him back on the […]

Colts Defense A Starting Option Against Texans

The Colts Defense has been good for most of the season other than a couple bad performances and should be considered a solid starting option this week against the Texans. They were dominant last week against the Raiders and held the Texans to just 20 points in Week 13. They have tallied 15 interceptions on […]

Gordon Hayward Could Be Sidelined For Season Opener

Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (finger) is not going to suit up for the preseason finale on Saturday. He remains day-to-day with a fractured finger, so it's unclear if he'll be ready for the regular season opener. The good news is, Hayward was able to do some ball handling and shooting on Friday. Miles Bridges […]

Trey Burton A Hit-Or-Miss Tight End Option

Indianapolis Colts tight end Trey Burton has struggled with consistency all season and was held without a target last week against the Raiders. Burton has shown he is able to string together solid performances this season but sometimes becomes absent in the games following. In a Week 13 contest against the Texans, Burton was held […]

Dillon Brooks Could Sit Out Saturday

Memphis Grizzlies forward Dillon Brooks (knee) is listed as questionable for Saturday's preseason matchup against the Atlanta Hawks. He looked fantastic on Wednesday, knocking down 10 field goals and finishing with 24 points. It appears he's a lock for the starting five, so it's doubtful he'd play much on Saturday anyway. Fantasy managers should feel […]

Anfernee Simons Could Miss Some Time

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (hamstring) was unable to suit up for Friday's preseason matchup. He has been dealing with a hamstring issue that doesn't seem to want to go away. There is some doubt that Simons will be healthy enough to play in the regular season opener next week. Regardless, Simons is going […]

Dennis Schroder Could Miss Season Opener

Los Angeles Lakers guard Dennis Schroder (ankle) sat out of Friday's preseason contest against the Phoenix Suns. He tweaked his left ankle during Wednesday's game and was dealing with some minor swelling. Hopefully. Schroder will be ready for the season opener, but that's not a guarantee right now. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Alex Caruso, and Quinn Cook […]

Zach Pascal Not A Starting Option Against Texans

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Zach Pascal is mostly off the fantasy radar and should not be started against the Texans. Pascal has just one catch in each of his last three games, one of those games being against the Texans in Week 13. He has not gone for over 60 receiving yards in any game […]

Matthew Stafford Plans To Play Sunday Despite Rib Injury

Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford (ribs) is preparing to take the field Sunday against Tennessee despite injuries to his ribs that many believed would keep him sidelined. Stafford has already played through what has been reported as a serious thumb injury on his throwing hand, so to say that he's at less than 100 percent […]

Sammy Watkins Carries Contrarian DFS Appeal Sunday

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins faces a daunting matchup Sunday against a stout Saints secondary. With that in mind, his low DFS price tag gives him some terrific upside, which exists perpetually with Patrick Mahomes under center. While Tyreek Hill and Travis Kelce will likely continue to see a favorable number of targets […]

Michael Pittman Jr. A Borderline Flex Option Against Texans

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. had disappointed over the last few weeks, making him a borderline flex option in Week 15 against the Texans. He is averaging just three catches for about 38 yards over his last few games after posting some solid performances in the weeks prior to that. Pittman had a […]

Darius Slay Will Miss Sunday’s Contest

Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Darius Slay (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Arizona, as he has not yet passed the league's concussion protocol. Slay will not travel with the team for the game, leaving an enormous void in the secondary, significantly hampering the Eagles Defense appeal, while also heightening that of DeAndre Hopkins. […]

T.Y. Hilton A WR2 Candidate In Week 15

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton has been very good over the last three games, making him a WR2 option in Week 15 against the Texans. Over the last three games, Hilton has 17 catches on 23 targets for 277 yards and four touchdowns. The Texans Defense is middle of the pack against opposing wide […]

Jamaal Williams A Deep Season-Long Option Only Saturday

Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams has become firmly entrenched as the spell back to Aaron Jones, and should continue to reprise that role Saturday against the Panthers. Unfortunately, he has now played fewer than 50 percent of the team's offensive snaps in three consecutive weeks, severely capping his season-long intrigue. During the playoff […]

Josh Reynolds A Risky WR3/Flex Option Sunday

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Josh Reynolds has a golden matchup on the docket Sunday against a Jets Defense that is limping toward the finish line in 2020, but his recent decrease in usage makes him a risky proposition in season-long playoff matchups. While Reynolds feasted against a similarly decimated secondary in Seattle earlier this […]

Nyheim Hines A Questionable Flex Option In Week 15

Indianapolis Colts running back Nyheim Hines will be a risky flex option this week against the Texans due in large part to Jonathan Taylor emerging over the last three games. Hines has seen his snap count fall back to about 35 percent of the team's snaps over the last couple games. The Texans run defense […]

Jonathan Taylor A Potential RB1 Option In Week 15

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor could be a RB1 option this week against a bad Texans run defense. The Texans Defense has allowed the second-most rushing yards this season, surrendering five yards per carry and 17 touchdowns. This sets up well for Taylor who has been playing his best football of the season over […]

Colt McCoy Likelier Option To Start At QB For Giants Sunday

The New York Giants seem content to take the decision on whether or not to start Daniel Jones (ankle, hamstring) right down to the wire prior to Sunday's game versus Cleveland. With that in mind, it appears as if the team is leaning toward starting Colt McCoy, per Jeremy Fowler of ESPN, which wouldn't be […]

Seattle Plans To Activate Rashaad Penny For Sunday’s Game

Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny (knee) is on track to make his season debut Sunday against Washington, with the team planning to activate him prior to kickoff. Penny has been sidelined all year while rehabbing a torn ACL, but he should immediately enter the rotation out of the backfield. Chris Carson has seen a […]

Philip Rivers Looks To Stay Consistent

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Philip Rivers has been playing well over the last month and will look to keep that form against a poor Texans Defense. The Texans defense has been mostly bad all season and was picked apart last week against Mitchell Trubisky. Rivers has multiple passing touchdowns in each of his last four games […]

Geoff Neal Has Big Opportunity On Main-Event Stage

Geoff Neal (13-2) is returning to the Octagon after a year layoff, last competing in December  of 2019 when he knocked out Mike Perry in the first round. Since joining the UFC, Neal is undefeated at 5-0. Four of those wins are by finish and his lone decision was against Belal Muhammad. Overall, 10 of […]

Stephen Thompson In Main Event On Saturday

The fifth-ranked UFC welterweight, Stephen Thompson (15-4-1), is set to take over the main-event stage against Geoff Neal on Saturday. It's been over a year since we've seen Thompson in action when he earned a decision victory in November of 2019 against Vicente Luque. Prior to the win, he was 1-3 since fighting to a […]

Marlon Vera Looking For Second Huge Win In A Row

Marlon Vera (18-6-1) has another chance for a career-changing win on Saturday, coming off of derailing the hype train of Sean O'Malley in August. Vera now has a chance to claim a win over arguably the greatest featherweight of all time in Jose Aldo. Chito leaves very little to chance with the judges, earning finishes […]

Fantasy Football Rookies to Watch in Week 15

Dolphins running back and wide receiver Lynn Bowden Jr. had the best game of his career last week. After being used sparingly for much of the season, his role in the offense has steadily increased over the last three weeks, culminating in a seven-reception, 82-yard performance last week against the Chiefs. The rookie from Kentucky […]

Washington Defense Has Tough Matchup With Seahawks

The Washington Football Team defense has been a solid unit for fantasy this season but faces a tough test in Week 15 versus Russell Wilson and the Seahawks. Seattle is in the bottom-third of the league in fantasy points allowed to opposing defenses. Washington has a decent floor as their strong defensive line featuring Chase […]
