Russell Westbrook Will Rest Friday

Washington Wizards guard Russell Westbrook (rest) will not suit up for Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. This doesn't come as shocking news considering it's the second game of a back-to-back set. Head coach Scott Brooks hinted that this was likely coming, so expect the team to continue doing this going forward. Bradley Beal will […]

Hunter Henry Placed On Reserve/COVID-19 List.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Hunter Henry (COVID-19) has been placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list and is unlikely to suit up in Week 17 versus the Kansas City Chiefs. It will be his second consecutive absence since being played on the reserve/COVID-19 list prior to Week 16. The good news for Henry is that he […]

Terrence Ross Should Play On Saturday

Orlando Magic guard Terrence Ross (hamstring) is listed as probable for Saturday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He is dealing with minor hamstring soreness, but it sounds like it'll only cost him one game. Ross has been lights out off the bench for the Magic early in the season. He needs to be rostered […]

Eric Gordon Expected To Suit Up Versus Kings

Houston Rockets guard Eric Gordon (knee) is listed as probable for Saturday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He made his season debut on Thursday, but it reportedly dealing with minor knee soreness. The Rockets might limit Gordon somewhat due to his injury history. Regardless, he'll be a low-end fantasy option without much upside.

Keenan Allen Placed On Reserve/COVID-19 List.

The Los Angeles Chargers have placed wide receiver Keenan Allen on the reserve/COVID-19 list. Allen has been banged up with a hamstring injury and this will likely end his 2020 campaign. If Allen does miss Sunday's game as expected, he will finish the year with 100 receptions, 992 yards and eight touchdowns in 14 games. Allen […]

Alec Burks Questionable Versus Pacers

New York Knicks guard Alec Burks (ankle) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Indiana Pacers. The team currently has Burks listed as day-to-day. He has missed two games in a row, but the team is hopeful he'll get back out there on Saturday. Burks has been one of the top offensive weapons […]

Immanuel Quickley Could Sit On Saturday

New York Knicks guard Immanuel Quickley (hip) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Indiana Pacers. Head coach Tom Thibodeau mentioned that Quickley is getting better each and every day. The Knicks were impressed with what they saw from Quickley during the preseason. He isn't an immediate pick up in fantasy leagues, but […]

Clyde Edwards-Helaire Will Miss Week 17

Kansas City Chiefs rookie running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire (hip/ankle) will be inactive versus the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 17. Edwards-Helaire was inactive in Week 16 and could return for the Chiefs playoff run. Darrel Williams saw the majority of the action over Le'Veon Bell in Week 16 and it would appear that Williams will […]

Tyreek Hill And Sammy Watkins Will Miss Week 17

Kansas City Chiefs wide receivers Tyreek Hill (hamstring) and Sammy Watkins (calf) will both be inactive versus the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 17. Both receivers have been banged up and with the Chiefs clinching the top seed in the AFC, it make sense for the Chiefs to rest many of their starters on Sunday. […]

49ers Defense Should Be Avoided In Week 17

The 49ers Defense faces a tough matchup against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 17. The Seahawks are averaging 375.5 total yards per game and 28.9 points per game on the year. The 49ers held the Arizona Cardinals in check in Week 16, limiting their division foes to just 12 points. But prior to that game, […]

Kendrick Bourne A Desperation Option In Week 17

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Kendrick Bourne appears set to be the team's No. 1 receiver in Week 17 against the Seattle Seahawks. The Seahawks have the league's worst pass defense, allowing 287.9 passing yards per game. With Brandon Aiyuk (ankle) out for the game, Bourne has a chance to see a decent amount of […]

Antonio Gibson Questionable For Must-Win Game On Sunday Night

Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson (toe) did not participate in practice on Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game for the division title. Gibson was working with coaches on the sideline as head coach Ron Rivera said the team is trying to be smart about managing his reps. Gibson played last […]

George Kittle Set To Succeed In Week 17

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle had a solid game in his return to action in Week 16 against the Arizona Cardinals. He caught four of his five targets for 92 yards, leading the team in receiving yards by a long-shot as no other 49er had over 30 receiving yards. This week, Kittle and […]

Jerick McKinnon Not A Strong Week 17 Starting Option

San Francisco 49ers running back Jerick McKinnon was the team's primary pass-catching running back in Week 16 against the Arizona Cardinals. He reeled in three of his four targets for 28 yards in the game. He may see a little more action this week as the 49ers face the Seattle Seahawks, who have the league's […]

Jeff Wilson Jr. Should Flourish In Week 17

San Francisco 49ers running back Jeff Wilson Jr. is in a great spot going into Week 17 against the Seattle Seahawks. Wilson rushed 22 times for 183 yards and added a 21-yard touchdown reception in Week 16. This week, he should see a similar workload as he's the team's clear No. 1 running back. The […]

C.J. Beathard Shouldn't Be Trusted In Week 17

San Francisco 49ers quarterback C.J. Beathard has a great matchup against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 17. The Seahawks are allowing 287.9 passing yards per game this year, the most in the league. Unfortunately, Beathard is going to have a limited supporting cast for the game and the team will likely rely heavily on Jeff […]

Terry McLaurin Questionable For Must-Win Game

Washington Football Team wide receiver Terry McLaurin (ankle) missed practice again on Friday and is questionable to suit up for Sunday night's game. Despite not practicing, head coach Ron Rivera said the work McLaurin did on the sidelines was "pretty encouraging" and the team was trying to be smart about managing his workload. Expect Washington […]

Cardinals Defense In A Great Spot In Week 17

The Cardinals Defense could be in position to flourish in Week 17. They will be facing the Los Angeles Rams who will see John Wolford make his first career NFL start at quarterback. Wolford, who joined the league as an undrafted free agent in 2018, has never attempted a pass in the NFL. Expect to […]

Dan Arnold Is Touchdown-Or-Bust In Week 17

Arizona Cardinals tight end Dan Arnold has failed to score touchdowns in each of his past two games. Before that stretch, he had managed four touchdowns over a span of four games. Arnold and the Cardinals face the Los Angeles Rams in Week 17. The Rams have the league's best pass defense, allowing just 192.3 […]

Larry Fitzgerald Can't Be Trusted In Week 17

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald (groin) has been forced to sit out practice this week while dealing with a groin injury. He is currently questionable for Week 17 against the Los Angeles Rams. If he's able to go, he is not someone worth considering in fantasy lineups for Week 17. The Rams have the […]

Alex Smith On Track To Play In Week 17

Washington Football Team quarterback Alex Smith (calf) participated in practice again on Friday and appears on track to suit up in a must-win game against the Eagles on Sunday night. This is good news for the other Washington skill-players as Smith has been by far the most productive of the four quarterbacks to take snaps […]

Christian Kirk Not Worth Starting In Week 17

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Christian Kirk turned in his best outing in a long time in Week 16 against the San Francisco 49ers. He caught seven of his 10 targets for 76 yards in the game. It was the first time he'd topped 50 receiving yards in a game since Week 9. This week, Kirk […]

NextGen Stats - Wide Receiver/Tight End Breakdowns and Takeaways

Most fantasy GMs are already celebrating or lamenting their success or failure at fantasy football for the 2020 season. With the average, usual 16-week leagues already over, there are folks out there (most-probably you're one if you're reading this) still fighting for the cheap in the mighty, unpredictable, crazy 17-week games that will wrap-up the […]

DeAndre Hopkins A Must-Start If Active In Week 17

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (hip) is questionable for Week 17 against the Los Angeles Rams. He's been dealing with a hip injury this week. He missed practice to start the week before being upgraded to limited, which might suggest that he'll be able to go this weekend. Hopkins and the Cardinals face the […]

Wil Lutz Has Upside In Week 17

New Orleans Saints kicker Wil Lutz faces the Atlanta Falcons in Week 17. Lutz is coming off nailing all seven extra-points against the Vikings last week and has a stretch of eight games with at least three point-after attempts made. New Orleans will be playing this game like a must-win with a chance for the […]

Chase Edmonds Is Risky If He Goes In Week 17

Arizona Cardinals running back Chase Edmonds (hip) is currently questionable for this week's game against the Los Angeles Rams. Edmonds injured his hip in Week 16 and was unable to practice with the team during their first practices of the week. Edmonds has had a steady role all year, despite having his touches capped by […]
