Corey Conners Looking For Another Top-10 Finish

Corey Conners had a solid performance in his last start at ZOZO, finishing T8. He will look for another top-10 performance this week in his debut at Memorial Park. Conners is not long off the tee and has not been great with his irons, but his putting has been solid enough to compete. He currently […]

Brendan Allen Looking To Make A Statement Saturday

Brendan Allen (15-3) has been on fire since joining the UFC, going 3-0 with two finishes. The former LFA middleweight champion also has a win over Kevin Holland, who is the first fighter in 2020 to win four bouts.

Ian Heinisch Can Make A Big Push With A Win Saturday

Ian Heinisch (14-3) entered the UFC scene on fire, scoring a first-round knockout in the Contender Series. After earning his UFC contract, Heinisch won his first two bouts inside the Octagon. He hit a bit of a skid after that, though, losing his next two bouts. In his most recent outing, the Hurricane knocked out […]

Richie James Jr. Questionable Against Packers

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Richie James Jr. (ankle) and safety Jaquiski Tartt (groin) are listed as questionable for Thursday night against the Packers. James could surprise some on Thursday if he's active with receivers Deebo Samuel (hamstring) and Kendrick Bourne and tight end George Kittle (foot) out, but he's still a long shot for […]

Lanto Griffin Riding Momentum Into Houston

Lanto Griffin has played well over his last two starts with finishes of T7 at the CJ Cup and T11 at ZOZO. Griffin has been fairly good with his irons and wedges, ranking 42nd in strokes gained approaching the green. He has also been solid with his putter, ranking 34th in strokes gained putting, 41st […]

Packers Defense To Be Short-Handed In Secondary

Green Bay Packers cornerback Kevin King (quadriceps) and safeties Will Redmond (shoulder) and Vernon Scott (shoulder) have been ruled out for Thursday night against the 49ers.

Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

We are officially in the second half of the fantasy season, so most of the waiver wire gems have been snatched up. The bye weeks continue and injuries keep mounting, though.

Running Back Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 9

Fantasy GMs are to be commended for rising to the unique challenges that have unfolded during this regular season. Injuries to critical players is an unwelcome reality that occurs every year. This is also the case for backs that were expected to operate as RB1s, but have been relegated to committees. However, this season has […]

Wide Receiver Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 9

Week 8 was a day of windy football and didn't feature too many wide receivers coming out of nowhere. But that doesn't mean the waiver wire cupboard is bare for fantasy managers, as there's some definite value to be had this week. Not all options are the same. Some players may be better in PPR […]

Tight End Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 9

Week 9 will take a toll on the tight end position for millions of fantasy football teams. Fantasy football managers will be without Cleveland’s Austin Hooper, Los Angeles’ Tyler Higbee and Gerald Everett, and Philadelphia’s Zach Ertz and Dallas Goedert thanks to their teams being on bye. ut the biggest void is left behind by […]

Quarterback Waiver Wire Pickups and Streamers - Week 9

The story of Week 8 in the NFL will be the brutal weather situations that stifled many offenses across the league. Patrick Mahomes (416 yards and five touchdowns) and Russell Wilson (261 yards and four touchdowns) did what they do best, but statistics were down across the league. Only three quarterbacks threw for over 300 […]

Harold Varner III Looks To Rebound At Memorial Park

Harold Varner III heads to the Vivint Houston Open on the heels of a disappointing performance in last week's Bermuda Championship. Varner missed the cut at Port Royal after shooting a disastrous second-round 80 in extremely windy conditions. This week's Memorial Park layout should provide a nice bounce-back spot for the up-and-comer and will give […]

Xiaonan Yan Quietly Going For Six Wins In A Row

Xiaonan Yan (12-1) has been on a quiet run since joining the UFC, going 5-0 inside the Octagon. All five of her wins have been by unanimous decision. In her career, though, Yan has scored five knockouts out of her 12 wins. Yan has a reputation of pressing the pace and will need to do […]

Doc Redman Heads To Houston Off Strong Finish

Doc Redman heads to this week's Vivint Houston Open fresh off a strong finish in last week's Bermuda Championship. Redman logged a T4 on a windswept Port Royal layout. He'll look to keep the positive momentum going in this week's Vivint Houston Open. The 22-year-old is one of the PGA Tour's rising stars. His move […]

Claudia Gadelha Looking For Three Wins In A Row

Claudia Gadelha (18-4) is at an important crossroads in her career. She has currently won three of her last four bouts and is under the tutelage of striking-genius Mark Henry.

Adam Scott Set To Make Second Start Of Season

Adam Scott will make his second start of the 2021 season, coming off a T38 finish at the U.S. Open in September. The data is limited in just one tournament so far this season, but there were a couple good parts of Scott's game at the U.S. Open that may suggest success this week. He […]

Mitchell Trubisky Expected To Miss Time

Chicago Bears backup quarterback Mitchell Trubisky (shoulder) is expected to miss at least a few weeks with a shoulder injury that he suffered on his one play in Week 8. The Bears are concerned that Trubisky could have significant structural issues in his throwing shoulder. As a result, the Bears are bringing in quarterbacks Jake […]

Viktor Hovland A Rock-Solid Option In Houston

Viktor Hovland is set to tee it up in the Vivint Houston Open. Hovland has been one of the most consistent players on the PGA Tour this year, making the cut in all 14 of his starts since returning from the COVID-19 layoff. The 23-year-old's consistency stems from his tremendous ball striking. He finished last […]

Brooks Koepka Will Attempt To Find Form In Houston

Four-time major winner Brooks Koepka will attempt to get his game in shape for the upcoming Masters at this week's Vivint Houston Open. 2020 has been filled with injuries and disappointment for Koepka, who has posted just one top-five finish this year. He returned from a brief layoff to post a T28 at the ZOZO […]

Matthew Stafford Considered A High-Risk Close Contact

Updating a previous item, Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford is being considered a high-risk close contact from a non-team member, according to a source. The Lions put Stafford on the COVID-19 list on Wednesday, but his last contact was Monday, which means he would be eligible to come off the list on Sunday and play […]

Alvin Kamara Says He'll Return To Practice Thursday

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (toe) said that he will be back at practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday with an injury that he likened to stubbing "your toe on the corner of a bedpost or something." It's not an injury that will keep Kamara from facing the division-rival Buccaneers on […]

Texans Signing Josh McCown

The Houston Texans are signing veteran quarterback Josh McCown on Wednesday, according to his agent, Mike McCartney. McCown was part of the Eagles practice squad earlier this season, but he'll now join Houston's active roster as the third-stringer behind Deshaun Watson and backup A.J. McCarron. The 41-year-old is more of a coach at this point […]

Stefon Diggs A Top-Tier Option For Week 9

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs has been a reliable weapon all season long with his new team. Quarterback Josh Allen and Diggs continue to destroy opposing defenses each and every week. Diggs should have great WR1 upside against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 9. A secondary that has allowed the most fantasy points to […]

Aaron Jones Listed As Questionable For Thursday

The Green Bay Packers are listing running back Aaron Jones (calf) as questionable for the Thursday night game against the 49ers. Jones was limited in practice on Tuesday, but he's missed the last two games and the Packers haven't seemed very optimistic that he'll suit up on a short week, even though Jamaal Williams and […]

Zack Moss Carries RB3 Value Versus Seahawks

Buffalo Bills running back Zack Moss was able to put together his best performance of the season versus the New England Patriots in Week 8.

Matthew Stafford Placed On COVID List

Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford was not at practice on Wednesday and has been placed on the reserve/COVID list, per Adam Shefter.
