Philip Rivers To Play Saturday, Joey Bosa Out

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers will play in the team's preseason game on Saturday after sitting out the opener. Defensive end Joey Bosa (foot) will sit out again. Rivers will probably only play a series or two before exiting. Fantasy owners typically don't target 36-year-old quarterbacks, but Rivers could be a low-end QB1 sleeper […]

Deshaun Watson Should Play More Saturday

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson (knee) is expected to see more playing time in the preseason game against the 49ers on Saturday, but it doesn't sound as though that'll come with a big increase in snaps. He received five snaps in the preseason opener last week, and the Texans have liked what they've seen from […]

Doug Baldwin Doing Sprints Thursday

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin (knee) was seen doing sprints on the field on Thursday. While Baldwin isn't expected to play at all in the preseason, this is a great sign that he'll be ready for Week 1 against the Broncos. With not many other reliable options behind him, Seattle desperately needs Baldwin healthy […]

Eric Ebron Sits Out Of Practice

Indianapolis Colts tight end Eric Ebron sat out Thursday's practice, according to Zak Keefer of the Indy Star. It is unclear whether Ebron's absence is due to an injury or some other reason, but Keefer believes it is "not expected to be serious." The Colts will be participating in joint practices with the Baltimore Ravens […]

Delanie Walker Injured In Practice Thursday

Tennessee Titans tight end Delanie Walker is being evaluated for an undisclosed injury in practice on Thursday. We'll update you when we know more about the specific nature and severity of the injury. Walker is a very important part of an improving offense, and the 34-year-old has posted at least 800 yards receiving in each […]

Alex Okafor Has Sprained Ankle, Bone Bruise

New Orleans Saints defensive end Alex Okafor (ankle, knee) was diagnosed with a sprained ankle and knee bone bruise after he underwent an MRI exam on Wednesday, according to sources informed of the situation. He's considered week-to-week and it's unclear when he'll return to practice. Okafor is coming off a torn Achilles in Week 11 […]

Several Jets Players Won't Play Thursday

New York Jets running back Isaiah Crowell (head), wide receivers Quincy Enunwa (thumb) and Terrelle Pryor (ankle) and tight end Chris Herndon are not expected to play in the preseason game on Thursday. All of these players should be fine, but the Jets are just being cautious with several weeks to go before the regular […]

Ben Roethlisberger Out Of Concussion Protocol

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (head) is no longer in the concussion protocol. Big Ben is fine, although he's still unlikely to play in the second preseason game this week. The oft-injured quarterback needs to take better care of his body as he ages, and that's one of the biggest reasons why he's not as […]

Saquon Barkley Sitting Out Of Practice

New York Giants rookie running back Saquon Barkley (hamstring) is sitting out of practice for the third straight day on Thursday. The Giants are being extra cautious with their stud rookie, and it's probably unlikely that he'll play in the second preseason game on Friday. Barkley was as advertised in the first preseason game and […]

Rex Burkhead, Sony Michel Not Expected To Play Thursday

New England Patriots running backs Rex Burkhead and Sony Michel (knee) are not expected to play in the preseason game against the Eagles on Thursday. The Patriots are just being cautious here, and Michel might not play at all in the preseason. That'll obviously hurt his fantasy stock going into the season in what'll be […]

Tom Brady Expected To Play Thursday

The plan is for New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady (back) to play in the preseason game on Thursday against the Eagles, and it wouldn't be a surprise if he plays deep into the first half. Brady was dealing with a minor back injury last week and was unsurprisingly held out of the first preseason […]

Travis Frederick Dealing With Stingers

Dallas Cowboys center Travis Frederick (neck) will miss a few practices and will not play in the second preseason game due to stingers in his neck. Frederick actually visited a specialist on Wednesday to confirm that he was suffering only from stingers and from nothing more serious. "Everything is good other than the stingers," said […]

Kenneth Dixon In Line For Preseason Debut Monday

Baltimore Ravens running back Kenneth Dixon will make his preseason debut on Monday night against the Colts after sitting out the first few weeks of camp. The third-year back has flashed some skill in both the running and passing game when he's managed to stay healthy, which unfortunately hasn't been frequent. Dixon will battle veteran […]

Maxx Williams Back At Practice Thursday

Baltimore Ravens fourth-year tight end Maxx Williams returned to practice Thursday after missing the team's preseason game against the Rams. The oft-injured tight end will look to get back on track prior to the Sept. 1 roster cutdown as he battles for a spot on the Ravens roster. It will be an uphill climb for […]

Jermaine Gresham Still On PUP List

Arizona Cardinals tight end Jermaine Gresham is still on the team's Physically Unable to Perform list going into their second preseason game. At this point, it seems unlikely that the veteran tight end will start the season healthy, paving the way for fellow tight end Ricky Seals-Jones. Seals-Jones should be considered a mid-range TE2 with […]
