Chris Godwin Doubtful For Week 2

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (concussion) remains in the league's concussion protocol and will be listed as doubtful for Week 2 against the Panthers. Godwin will go through more tests on Saturday, and if doctors clear him then, he will be upgraded to questionable. The good news is that Tampa's game is early […]

Amari Cooper Expected To Play In Week 2

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper (ankle) is not expected to miss any time in Week 2. Cooper was a late addition to the injury report this week, which is always concerning, but it seems he is fine and fully expected to play. Cooper is a high-upside WR1 as long as he suits up, as […]

C.J. Uzomah Done For The Season

Updating a previous report, Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said that tight end C.J. Uzomah (Achilles) will miss the rest of the season with a torn Achilles that he suffered in the Thursday night loss to the Browns. It had the looks of a season-ending injury when he was carted off the field. Uzomah […]

Tyler Boyd Gets Back On Track In Week 2

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd finished with seven catches for 72 yards and a score during the Thursday night loss to Cleveland. The 25-year-old made a noticeable improvement in this one after a miserable four-catch, 33-yard performance in Week 1 against the visiting Chargers. Though A.J. Green eclipsed Boyd for looks from rookie signal-caller […]

Edwin Diaz Works Another Scoreless Frame Thursday

New York Mets right-handed relief pitcher Edwin Diaz threw a scoreless inning of work on Thursday in the Mets' 10-6 win over the Phillies. Diaz's inning of work was not without drama, though, as he loaded the bases in the ninth inning by walking two and hitting a batter. His control issues, however, could be […]

Bills Defense Will Be Missing Matt Milano, Tremaine Edmunds

Buffalo Bills linebackers Matt Milano (hamstring) and Tremaine Edmunds (shoulder) have both been ruled out for Week 2 against the Dolphins, according to head coach Sean McDermott. Both Milano and Edmunds have appeal in IDP leagues as tacklers, but you will not be able to plug them into your lineups this Sunday. However, even with […]

Bengals Fear C.J. Uzomah Has Torn Achilles

The Cincinnati Bengals fear that tight end C.J. Uzomah (Achilles) suffered a torn Achilles during the Thursday night loss to the Browns, according to a source.

Joe Mixon Struggles Running Against Browns

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon ran for 46 yards off of 16 carries during the loss to the Browns. He also added four catches for 40 yards.

Julio Urias Pitches Effectively In Thursday's Start

Los Angeles Dodgers starter Julio Urias allowed two runs on three hits across 5 2/3 innings of work during Thursday's 9-3 win over the Colorado Rockies. He struck out two batters without issuing a walk in the no-decision. The Rockies jumped on Urias in the first inning, cashing both of their runs, but the 24-year-old […]

Jamison Crowder Out For Week 2

New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder (hamstring) will miss his team's Week 2 contest against the San Francisco 49ers. This leaves the Jets really shallow at receiver, with Breshad Perriman taking on the role as the team's No. 1 option this week. Perriman becomes an intriguing flex play, though the 49ers Defense is really […]

Re-Shaping NFL Depth Charts with Week 1 Snap Count Data

A common complaint heading into Week 1 was that some NFL teams had posted depth charts that felt a little...off. Some teams didn't have 11 starters. Some had guys who we knew were in for big roles not listed as starters. Things were not clear. After one week of actual play, we have a clearer […]

Glimmer Of Hope For Michael Thomas In Week 2

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas (ankle) "felt fantastic" at practice on Thursday and there is a "little glimmer of hope" that he can play on Monday night against the Raiders, according to a source.
