Bears Want To Extend Allen Robinson II

Chicago Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson and the team are now focused on coming to an agreement for a contract extension. Other teams began to inquire about Robinson's availability after rumors swirled of him wanting out of Chicago, though the team rebuffed trade interest for their star wideout. Now, the two sides are focused on […]

Robinson Cano Hits Second Homer In Three Games

Kenny Golladay Really Close To A Return

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kenny Golladay (hamstring) won't play Week 2 but is "really close" to a return, according to head coach Matt Patricia. Golladay hasn't been able to practice since injuring his hamstring prior to Week 1. Detroit's offense moved the ball well in Week 1, though they were clearly missing the presence of […]

David Peterson Strikes Out Ten Braves In Win

New York Mets left-handed pitcher David Peterson was impressive in the Mets' 7-2 win over the Atlanta Braves on Saturday. Peterson (5-2) went six innings and struck out a career-high ten hitters, while allowing three hits including a solo home run, and just one earned run. The only blemish on Peterson's solid performance was some […]

James Conner, Benny Snell Jr. Expected To Split Carries

Pittsburgh Steelers running backs James Conner and Benny Snell Jr. are expected to split carries moving forward. Conner left the game against the Giants early after getting injured and Snell Jr. made the most of the opportunity, posting a 100-yard day. While Conner is playing on Sunday against the Broncos, this is not an encouraging […]

Julian Edelman, N'Keal Harry Should Play Sunday Night

New England Patriots wide receivers Julian Edelman (knee) and N'Keal Harry (shoulder) should both be on the field against the Seahawks Sunday night. Both were limited all week in practice, though the team was likely being careful with two players who were a huge part of their passing game in Week 1. Edelman and Harry […]

Phillip Lindsay Out Two-To-Four Weeks

Denver Broncos running back Phillip Lindsay (toe) is likely looking at a two-to-four week absence, as reported by Ian Rapoport. Lindsay sustained the injury in the first half of their Week 1 game with the Titans and he was initially listed as week-to-week. After getting a second opinion, his chances of suiting up for Week […]

Robert Quinn Likely To Take The Field Sunday

Chicago Bears defensive end Robert Quinn (ankle) is expected to make his debut on Sunday against the New York Giants. Quinn arrived in Chicago this offseason as a big-time free agent to bookend Khalil Mack on Chicago's defensive line, though the ankle kept him from playing Week 1. If the 30-year-old plays, he and Mack […]

George Kittle Could Return For Week 3

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (knee) won't play in Week 2 though the team believes he'll be able to suit up for their Week 3 matchup with the New York Giants. Kittle is dealing with a bone bruise and a knee sprain, injuries that had cost him two games previously in his career. […]

Vince Velasquez Earns First Win Of Season Saturday

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Vince Velasquez allowed one run in six innings to earn his first win of the season Saturday against the Blue Jays. Velasquez allowed just two hits but walked three while lowering his ERA to 5.46. While that number looks high, his peripherals are a bit better with a 4.40 FIP and […]

Golden Tate Expected To Play Against Bears

New York Giants wide receiver Golden Tate (hamstring) is expected to play against the Bears on Sunday. Tate was listed as questionable after missing Week 1 and practicing in limited fashion all week, but he is believed to be at full strength for a tilt with Chicago's defense. This defense isn't as feared as it […]

Courtland Sutton Has Good Chance To Play

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton (shoulder) has a good chance to play on Sunday against Pittsburgh. Sutton is dealing with an AC joint sprain, which sidelined him for Week 1. The second-year pro was limited for all three practice sessions this week, certainly an improvement from Week 1 when he wasn't able to participate […]

Tarik Cohen Agrees To Three-Year Extension

Chicago Bears running back Tarik Cohen agreed to a three-year contract extension worth $17.25 million, including $9.53 million in guaranteed money. Cohen had an excellent year in 2018, exceeding 400 rushing and receiving yards, though he fell back down to earth in 2019. He has the versatility to be an excellent player for both his […]

Tommy Hunter Earns First Save Of Season

Philadelphia Phillies relief pitcher Tommy Hunter pitched a clean ninth inning with two strikeouts to earn a save over the Blue Jays Saturday. Called on to protect a two-run lead, the veteran reliever needed just nine pitches to preserve the win for Philadelphia and pick up his first save since 2018. Brandon Workman and Hector […]

Brandin Cooks Should Be Good To Go

Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks (quad) should be good to go for Sunday's game against the Ravens. Cooks was a limited participant in practice all week, though he is expected to suit up for a tough matchup with Baltimore's secondary. The 26-year-old is a risky flex at best in this unappealing matchup, though he […]

Fantasy Baseball Injury Updates for Week 10

Starting Pitcher Waiver Wire Week 10

What a full out sprint of a Major-League Baseball regular season. It provided highs, lows, and forced fantasy owners to make tough decisions that rewarded those who played boldly. Deciding which players would man a fantasy team’s rotation was the most important of all. Certain players had to be sold or bought much earlier than usual […]
