Rex Burkhead Likely To Lose Value

New England Patriots running back Rex Burkhead is expected to see his role decrease going forward. James White returned during the Week 4 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs after missing each of the two games prior to that. Burkhead saw a season-high 11 carries on the ground, but White returned to his role as […]

James White Has Flex Value Versus Broncos

New England Patriots running back James White returned from his two-game absence against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 4. He finished with three rushing attempts for 21 yards and caught seven receptions through the air in the loss. The Pats continue to heavily involve White in the passing game and that should be the […]

N'Keal Harry Holds WR3/FLEX Relevance Sunday

New England Patriots wide receiver N'Keal Harry will have quarterback Cam Newton back under center Sunday versus Denver, boosting him up toward WR3/Flex appeal in medium-sized or larger season-long formats. Harry has been a favorite target of Newton, having averaged seven targets per contest this year, while compiling 18 receptions for 166 yards and one […]

Jack Doyle Returns To Fantasy Relevance For Week 6

Indianapolis Colts tight end Jack Doyle was a Pro Bowl selection last season, but has thus far struggled to carve out a role in the Philip Rivers-led offense in 2020. With Mo Alie-Cox (knee) out of the mix versus the Bengals on Sunday, Doyle should see considerable intrigue for DFS upside, while also presenting potential […]

Pivot Plays and Post-Waiver Pickups - Week 6

The pivot plays and post-waiver pickups keep coming, RotoBallers! There is no Thursday game this week to burn fantasy football players, but there are now two Monday night games and plenty of Sunday games that could catch fantasy managers off guard if they do not have backup plans in place for the “questionable” players on […]

Jaguars Put 12 Practice Squad Players On Reserve/COVID-19 List

The Jacksonville Jaguars announced Saturday that they have placed 12 of their practice squad players on the league’s reserve/COVID-19 list ahead of Sunday’s contest against Detroit. At this point, there’s no reason to believe that the game between the Lions and Jaguars is in jeopardy, as Jacksonville is reportedly making the move as a precaution. […]

J.K. Dobbins Not A Season-Long Starting Option At This Stage

Baltimore Ravens running back J.K. Dobbins entered the season as a borderline Top 100 fantasy selection due to his multifaceted abilities out of the backfield. Even with veteran Mark Ingram II holding down primary running back duties, Gus Edwards has now emerged as Ingram’s primary backup, leaving Dobbins somewhat out in the cold. He played […]

Jordan Akins Will Miss Sunday’s Game

Houston Texans tight end Jordan Akins (ankle/concussion) will not suit up Sunday against Tennessee, as he was not a part of the team’s traveling party. Akins will now be sidelined for the second consecutive week, paving the way for Darren Fells to remain the team’s primary tight end. Fells is a low-end TE streamer option […]

Fantasy Football Rookies to Watch in Week 6

Every week, this column will spotlight the first-year players who are ripe for a breakout performance. Often, rookies can provide some of the most value as under-the-radar options. Last week, Pittsburgh rookie wideout Chase Claypool had a monster performance. The Notre Dame product tallied 116 yards from scrimmage and four total touchdowns, helping the Steelers beat […]

Colts Defense Adds Sheldon Day For Sunday’s Contest

Indianapolis Colts defensive tackle Sheldon Day has been added to the team’s active roster ahead of Sunday’s game versus Cincinnati, adding another key defensive piece to a unit that has been the highest-scoring defense in traditional ESPN formats this year. Day, who is set to make his Colts debut Sunday, was hampered by a knee […]

Sony Michel, Two Other Patriots Land On Reserve/COVID-19 List

New England Patriots running back Sony Michel (undisclosed), offensive lineman Shaq Mason, and defensive end Derek Rivers have all been placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list ahead of Sunday’s game versus Denver. Placement on the list does not necessarily mean that players had to test positive for the virus, with it also being utilized for those […]

Cowboys Defense May Get Leighton Vander Esch Back Monday

Dallas Cowboys linebacker Leighton Vander Esch (collarbone) is trending in the right direction of playing Monday against Arizona, per head coach Mike McCarthy. Vander Esch sustained a broken collarbone during Week 1 and has been sidelined since. Even if the Cowboys eventually get the former Pro Bowl linebacker back in the mix, the combination of […]

Denver Releases Blake Bortles; Indication Drew Lock Should Play

The tenure for veteran quarterback Blake Bortles with the Denver Broncos was short-lived, as he was released Saturday before appearing in a game with the team. The decision to move on from Bortles ahead of Sunday’s game versus New England is an extremely strong indicator that Drew Lock (shoulder), who is still tagged as questionable […]

Michael Pittman Jr. Runs On Turf Saturday During Rehab

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. (calf) is on the rehab trail after undergoing surgery to help alleviate compartment leg syndrome, and he tweeted Saturday that he was able to run on turf, which is surely a step in the right direction as it pertains to his return. Ineligible to return until at least […]

Green Bay Activates Equanimeous St. Brown For Sunday’s Game

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Equanimeous St. Brown (knee) has been added to the team’s active roster for Sunday’s game versus Tampa Bay. St. Brown has been sidelined this season due to a knee injury, not having appeared in a regular-season contest since 2018. His return further bolsters a Packers wide receiving corps that will […]

Noah Fant Deemed Out For Sunday’s Game

Denver Broncos tight end Noah Fant (ankle) has been officially ruled out for Sunday’s contest versus the Patriots. Despite having been a limited practice participant throughout the week, Denver will ultimately opt to hold Fant out, further limiting the team’s offensive options with Melvin Gordon III (illness) also sidelined. Jake Butt and Nick Vannett figure […]

Sammy Watkins Ruled Out For Monday’s Contest

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins (hamstring) has been officially deemed out for Monday’s game versus Buffalo. The hamstring injury that Watkins sustained last week may keep him on the shelf for an extended period, but the team was at least considering the idea that he could return as soon as Monday. Without Watkins […]

Buffalo Expects To Have Zack Moss Back Monday

Buffalo Bills running back Zack Moss (toe) is expected back in the running back equation for Monday’s contest versus Kansas City. Moss has missed each of the team’s previous three outings due to a toe injury, but he now figures to slot in as the primary backup to Devin Singletary. While Moss has carved out […]

NFL DFS Prop Picks for Sunday (10/18/20) - Monkey Knife Fight

Week 6 of the NFL season is upon us, which means a busy Sunday full of opportunities to play props and win with Monkey Knife Fight. The season is now officially in bye week territory, and not just “Covid-19 cancelled the game so we’re calling it a bye” territory. Four teams had byes last week. […]

Antonio Gibson Looking To Bounce-Back Versus Giants

Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson had the worst game of his career last week but should be in a good position to rebound versus the hapless Giants. Gibson was limited to just 51 yards on 16 touches last week and failed to find the end zone for the first time since Week 1. […]

J.D. McKissic A Sneaky Flex Play In PPR

Washington Football Team running back J.D. McKissic has been more involved in the team's offense over the last two weeks and is trending upwards in fantasy. McKissic is coming off back-to-back games with eight targets and went for over 40 receiving yards in each game. The former Lion has always excelled as a passing-downs back […]

Terry McLaurin A Solid Start Versus Giants

Washington Football Team wide receiver Terry McLaurin has been one of the few bright spots for Washington this season and should have another solid game versus the Giants. McLaurin is averaging nine targets-per-game and should be able to turn those looks into fantasy points against a beatable Giants secondary. Washington changed quarterbacks recently but it […]

Logan Thomas Trending Downward Ahead Of Matchup With Giants

Washington Football Team tight end Logan Thomas has seen his targets decrease over the last two weeks making him tough to trust in fantasy. Thomas has caught just two of eight targets in the last two games and has not found the end zone since Week 1. The lack of touchdown production is bad for […]

Chris Herndon A Low-End TE2 Against Miami

New York Jets tight end Chris Herndon started off the season with a six reception performance in the opener. Since then, Herndon has seven total receptions over the last four games. It doesn't help that the Jets offense is horrendous and head coach Adam Gase appears to have no idea what he's doing. Herndon will […]

Washington Defense A Solid Start Versus Giants

The Washington Football Team defense is in a good position for fantasy production in a Week 6 matchup with the Giants. The strength of the Washington defense has been it's defensive line with Chase Young, Ryan Kerrigan, and Montez Sweat forming one of the best pass-rushing trios in football. New York, on the other hand, […]

Jeff Smith A Risky Option In Week 6

New York Jets wide receiver Jeff Smith has seen 20 total targets over the last two games. However, he has only hauled in 10 of them for 104 yards, so there hasn't been much fantasy value coming from Smith. He's getting plenty of targets with the Jets banged up, but Breshad Perriman (ankle) and Denzel […]

Wayne Gallman, Dion Lewis Avoidable In Week 6

New York Giants running backs Dion Lewis and Wayne Gallman have fallen behind Devonta Freeman on the depth chart and both are unlikely to provide fantasy value in Week 6. Last week, Gallman was out-carried by Freeman 17 to five and Lewis did not get a carry. Lewis did have four targets, but was only […]
