The Athletic's Josh Kendall writes that if new Atlanta Falcons general manager Ian Cunningham's proactive approach carries over from Chicago, wide receiver
Drake London "could get a new deal this offseason." London signed a four-year, $21.53 million deal in May of 2022, and the Falcons exercised a $16.82 million team option for the 2026 season in April of last year. A long-term extension makes sense for the 24-year-old, who established himself as one of the league's top wideouts over the last two seasons by catching 168 of his 270 targets for 2,190 yards and 16 touchdowns in 29 games. Kendall believes that London likely sees himself as the type of player who should make at least $30 million annually. Atlanta might view him more in the $25 million-per-year range, but either way, he's key to the Falcons' future.

Indiana Pacers forward
Jarace Walker (illness) won't play on Tuesday against the New York Knicks. He was added to the injury report very late due to illness and has been officially ruled out ahead of tip-off. Given the circumstances, it wouldn't be surprising if Walker also sat out Wednesday's game against Brooklyn. With Walker out, the rest of the second unit must step up against the Knicks.
Micah Potter (hip),
Ben Sheppard, and
Kam Jones are all candidates for extended minutes.

Washington Wizards guard/forward
Kyshawn George (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday against Cleveland after turning his ankle Sunday, adding another layer of uncertainty to a Washington rotation already trending toward late-season evaluation mode. If George or
Bilal Coulibaly (heel) sits, minutes should open for
Will Riley, who has responded when extended, averaging 18.2 points, 2.6 threes, 4.4 rebounds, and 2.8 assists over his last five games.
Jamir Watkins also gains fringe value. Riley profiles as a viable streamer, while George carries short-term risk in standard formats.

Atlanta Falcons impending free-agent tight end
Kyle Pitts Sr. seems likely to remain in Atlanta in 2026, according to Josh Kendall of The Athletic. Kendall believes the franchise tag for Pitts makes the most sense, which would mean Pitts would make a little more than $16.3 million in 2026. Placing the franchise tag on the 25-year-old would give new head coach Kevin Stefanski a year to evaluate Pitts with his own eyes. Pitts teased fantasy managers for years after his 1,000-yard rookie season in 2021, only to fall flat. The former first-rounder finally played up to his abilities in 2025, catching a career-high 88 passes on 118 targets for 928 yards and a career-high five touchdowns in 17 games played. He had at least six catches and 57 yards in five of the final six games. Although Atlanta's quarterback situation is up in the air with
Michael Penix Jr. (knee) injured, Pitts' fantasy stock as a TE1 is on the rise going into 2026 if he stays with the Falcons.

Brooklyn Nets forward
Michael Porter Jr. (knee) won't suit up for Wednesday's clash against the Indiana Pacers. He remains on the injury report with right knee tendinitis. In Porter Jr.'s absence,
Danny Wolf joined the starting unit on Monday against Chicago. The 21-year-old rookie has done a good job all year when given the opportunity to start, averaging 10.6 points, 6.0 rebounds, 2.6 assists, and 1.0 blocks in 28.0 minutes. Wolf may be even more productive on Wednesday against a defensively-challenged team. With Porter Jr. sidelined, the rest of the Nets starters also gain added fantasy value due to a higher share of offensive responsibilities.

The San Francisco 49ers continue to say that they plan to hold onto quarterback
Mac Jones, who signed a two-year, $8.41 million contract in March of last year. The Athletic's Matt Barrows thinks the trade market for Jones this offseason "will be robust," and "there's a good chance they'll get an offer they can't refuse." Jones displayed excellent processing skills in 2025 and is well-liked in the Niners' locker room. The 27-year-old former first-round pick (15th overall) by the New England Patriots in 2021 out of Alabama kept San Fran's season afloat in 2025 when
Brock Purdy was injured, going 5-3 as a starter and throwing for 2,151 yards, 13 touchdowns, and six interceptions in 11 games played (eight starts). With
Sam Darnold as an example, some NFL teams looking for a QB could decide to take a chance on Jones instead of risk a draft pick on a young signal-caller.

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward
Shaedon Sharpe (calf) will miss a third consecutive game on Wednesday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He strained his left calf last week and could be out through the All-Star break. Sharpe's absence from the lineup has increased
Vit Krejci's workload, though he had a quiet five-point outing in Monday's loss to Philadelphia. Scott Henderson and
Blake Wesley are also relied upon more in this situation, with the former being the better fantasy option. Henderson has averaged 11.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 8.0 assists in two games since making his season debut.
--Taavi PailkSource: NBA Injury Report
February 10, 2026
Denver Nuggets guard/forward
Spencer Jones (concussion) is listed as questionable for Wednesday against Memphis after missing the past two games. His status matters for the frontcourt rotation, as third-year wing
Julian Strawther has filled the opening and produced, averaging 19.5 points, 3.0 three-pointers, and 5.5 rebounds in 31.2 minutes over the last two starts. If Jones sits again, Strawther profiles as a viable streamer with
Aaron Gordon (hamstring) and
Peyton Watson (hamstring) out. Jones' role has been volatile, keeping him off the fantasy radar outside deep leagues, while usage remains concentrated with
Jamal Murray and
Nikola Jokic.

Indiana Pacers point guard
T.J. McConnell (hamstring) will play against the New York Knicks on Tuesday, Ian Begley of SNY reports. The veteran playmaker is experiencing soreness in his right hamstring but has been cleared to play in the first leg of a back-to-back. It appears likely that McConnell will be rested for Wednesday's matchup with Brooklyn. McConnell has made all of his 39 appearances off the bench this season, averaging 9.5 points, 4.8 assists, and 1.2 steals per game.

ESPN's Turron Davenport doesn't think it would be surprising if the Tennessee Titans kept veteran wide receiver
Calvin Ridley, given his previous success with new offensive coordinator Brian Daboll, and sign a free agent such as receiver
Wan'Dale Robinson to man the slot. Daboll took advantage of Robinson's ability to create separation with the New York Giants while handling a high target volume. Robinson caught 93 passes under Daboll in 2024 and had 53 of his 92 receptions in 2025 before Daboll was fired after Week 10. The Titans have over $100 million in salary cap space for 2026, so they could focus on adding playmakers like Robinson to help quarterback
Cameron Ward as he heads into his sophomore campaign. The 25-year-old Robinson had his first 1,000-yard season in 2025 and has 90-plus catches each of the last two years, but a move to the Titans may make it difficult for him to maintain his pace as a PPR darling.

February 10, 2026
Indiana Pacers forward
Aaron Nesmith (hand) will be in the lineup on Tuesday against the New York Knicks, SNY's Ian Begley reports. It was initially unclear whether he would play after Indiana listed Nesmith as questionable on the injury report. On Tuesday, Nesmith will look to regain his scoring touch, having finished Sunday's loss to Toronto with only seven points. He has averaged 13.3 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 2.4 assists across his last 10 appearances. Since Nesmith isn't fully healthy, he could be unavailable for the second leg of a back-to-back set on Wednesday against Brooklyn.
--Taavi PailkSource: Ian Begley
February 10, 2026
Denver Nuggets guard/forward
Christian Braun (ankle) is listed as probable for Wednesday against Memphis after playing through the issue earlier in the week. Braun's season has been uneven, but his last two games show signs of life, averaging 15.0 points, 2.0 three-pointers, 4.5 rebounds, and 2.0 assists in 31.8 minutes with a 16.5 percent usage rate. With
Aaron Gordon (hamstring) and
Peyton Watson (hamstring) sidelined, wing minutes remain available. Braun is a short-term streamer in deeper formats, though usage stays secondary behind
Jamal Murray (hip) and
Nikola Jokic (ankle).

The Cleveland Plain Dealer's Mary Kay Cabot reports that the last two civil suits against Cleveland Browns quarterback
Deshaun Watson have been settled with the women accusing him of sexual misconduct weeks before they were set to go to trial in February and March, according to a league source. The suits were among the 27 that were filed against Watson since 2021 by women accusing him of sexual misconduct during massage appointments. Watson was fined $5 million and suspended for 11 games in 2022 because of his actions. The 30-year-old has been a massive bust for Cleveland since signing a five-year, $230 million contract in March of 2022, and he's played in just 20 games since the start of 2022. Watson suffered multiple Achilles tears in 2024 and will merely be competing for a starting gig this summer. There's still a pretty good chance he never takes another snap as the starter in Cleveland again.

New York Knicks forward
OG Anunoby (toe) has been ruled out for Tuesday's contest against the Indiana Pacers, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports. He will miss the rematch of the 2025 Eastern Conference Finals due to a toe injury. This will be Anunoby's third consecutive absence after the Knicks initially listed him as questionable for Tuesday's game.
Landry Shamet started in Anunoby's place on Sunday against Boston but had a poor game with three points.
Mohamed Diawara and
Jose Alvarado are also candidates for more minutes until Anunoby returns.
--Taavi PailkSource: James L. Edwards III
February 10, 2026
Denver Nuggets center
Nikola Jokic (ankle) is listed as probable for Wednesday against Memphis and is expected to play through the lingering issue. Jokic has remained a fixture despite regular injury designations, producing at an elite clip with 22.8 points, 12.8 rebounds, 10.0 assists, 1.2 steals, and 1.2 blocks over his last five games in 34.7 minutes. With
Jamal Murray (hip) also probable, Denver's offense stays concentrated. Jokic remains a locked-in fantasy anchor, while
Christian Braun's (ankle) usage stays capped and
Cameron Johnson holds deep-league value.

When asked about right-handed reliever
Jeff Hoffman, Toronto Blue Jays manager John Schneider said he's "100 percent confident if he's closing most games," according to Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet. General manager Ross Atkins said in November that the Blue Jays weren't committed to using Hoffman as their primary closer in 2026 after he struggled in late-game situations in 2025. The 33-year-old veteran had a career-high 33 saves, but he also had a 4.37 ERA and 1.19 WHIP in 68 innings during the regular season, and he famously blew Game 7 of the World Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Hoffman should see most of the team's save chances to open the season, but both
Yimi Garcia (elbow) and
Louis Varland are options to save games if Hoffman struggles. He'll be on a much shorter leash in 2026.

Texas Rangers left-hander
Cody Bradford (elbow) said he will throw his seventh bullpen session on Tuesday in his rehab from an internal-brace procedure last June, and he's still aiming for a return in May, according to Jeff Wilson of DLLS Sports. Bradford's bullpen on Tuesday will be his first that isn't limited to fastballs. The 27-year-old will try eight to 10 changeups. The 27-year-old southpaw pitched well in 2024, going 6-3 with a 3.54 ERA and 1.01 WHIP with 70 strikeouts and only 13 walks in 76 1/3 innings over his 14 appearances (13 starts). Bradford doesn't blow hitters away, but he has strong command and has shown a knack for keeping batters off balance. Because his command could struggle upon his return in 2026 after a long layoff, it's hard to get behind him in single-league formats this year. The Rangers will most definitely ease Bradford back in, too. At best, he's a bench stash in AL-only leagues.

Atlanta Hawks forward
Zaccharie Risacher (quadriceps) is on the injury report with a questionable tag ahead of Wednesday's encounter with the Charlotte Hornets. The French talent recently returned from a knee injury and is now nursing a left quadriceps contusion. Risacher hasn't been in good condition to play, averaging only 7.0 points on 32.4 percent shooting since returning to the lineup. If Risacher isn't in the lineup on Wednesday, Atlanta may use
Corey Kispert or
Buddy Hield as his replacement in the first unit. With
Jalen Johnson (knee) and
Dyson Daniels (ankle) out, Kispert already saw increased playing time in Monday's loss to Minnesota, recording 12 points, seven rebounds, four assists, and one steal across 31 minutes.

February 10, 2026
Denver Nuggets guard
Jamal Murray (hip) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game against Memphis after finishing Saturday despite discomfort. The issue has not interrupted his availability, and his workload has remained heavy with Denver short-handed. Murray has averaged 25.6 points, 9.6 assists, and 4.4 rebounds over his last five games while logging 37.3 minutes, carrying a 30.3 percent usage rate. His role stays secure if active, with
Nikola Jokic (ankle) also expected to play.
Christian Braun (ankle) and
Cameron Johnson remain secondary options, while Murray profiles as a clear hold and high-end fantasy starter.

ESPN's Dave McMenamin reports that Los Angeles Lakers guard
Marcus Smart (ankle) won't suit up against the San Antonio Spurs on Tuesday. Smart will get the evening off for right ankle soreness, maintenance. The 31-year-old veteran guard collected 19 points, three assists, three rebounds and two steals during Monday's loss to OKC.
LeBron James (foot),
Luka Doncic (hamstring) and
Austin Reaves (calf) will sit out tonight as well, so
Nick Smith Jr. and
Kobe Bufkin could take on heavier workloads than usual.

February 10, 2026
Atlanta Hawks guard/forward
Dyson Daniels (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's contest against the Charlotte Hornets. The versatile Australian continues to battle inflammation in his right ankle, which kept him out of Monday's matchup against Minnesota. Daniels' absence allowed
CJ McCollum to start, and the veteran had an outstanding performance with a game-high 38 points in 33 minutes. At the same time, Corey Kisper got additional burn off the bench and contributed 12 points, seven rebounds, four assists, and one block in 31 minutes.
--Taavi PailkSource: NBA Injury Report
February 10, 2026
Atlanta Hawks forward
Jalen Johnson (knee) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's tilt against the Charlotte Hornets. He is facing a second consecutive absence due to left knee inflammation. With Johnson unavailable,
Asa Newell got the nod to start on Monday night against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He had a limited role in the contest, notching two points, four rebounds, and one assist in 25 minutes.
Mouhamed Gueye is also in a position to see more action, but he was ejected from Monday's game early in the fourth quarter.
--Taavi PailkSource: NBA Injury Report
February 10, 2026
Philadelphia 76ers forward
Dominick Barlow (illness) is considered questionable for Wednesday's matchup with the New York Knicks. Due to illness, Barlow sat out Monday's loss to Portland, and Philadelphia may now be without its starting forward for another game.
Trendon Watford filled in for Barlow in the first unit on Monday, finishing with 12 points, two rebounds, and three assists in 25 games.
Justin Edwards saw additional action off the bench and tallied 12 points with four rebounds, two assists, and three steals. The two look set for a busier night again if Barlow doesn't return against the Knicks.

On Tuesday, Dave McMenamin of ESPN reports that Los Angeles Lakers forward
LeBron James (foot) will not play against the San Antonio Spurs. James will sit out the second leg of a back-to-back for injury maintenance after finishing with 22 points, six rebounds, and 10 assists in 36 minutes during Monday's loss to OKC.
Luka Doncic (hamstring),
Austin Reaves (calf), and
Marcus Smart (ankle) will also be sidelined. With several key contributors out of action, the Lakers will be forced to rely heavily on their remaining rotation, creating additional usage opportunities for players like
Luke Kennard and
Dalton Knecht during tonight's matchup.

After missing the cut last week in Phoenix, Jordan Spieth travels to the Monterey Peninsula this week in hopes of getting things back on track at a course that used to be his stomping grounds. He was the man to beat early in the now 32-year-old's career. However, he's struggled to find the same magic over the last three seasons, and the reasons are as clear as day: inaccuracy off the tee and poor putting. Spieth has lost an average of -0.953 strokes on the greens in that time, and is notoriously one of the more erratic drivers of the golf ball on the PGA Tour. It's too soon to tell which version of Spieth is wielding the putter yet this season, and the inability to consistently hit fairways is what it is. However, he's a fun flyer pick for GPP.

Quentin Grimes (illness) could miss a second consecutive game on Wednesday versus the New York Knicks, as the team has listed him as questionable on the injury report. Grimes missed Monday's loss to Portland due to illness after being a late addition to the injury report. With Grimes out of the mix,
Kyle Lowry made his first appearance in nearly a month. The veteran guard had six points, one rebound, one assist, one steal, and one block in 18 minutes. Unfortunately, the days of Lowry providing fantasy value are long gone.

Toronto Blue Jays right-hander
Shane Bieber (forearm) will open the 2026 season on the injured list, according to Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet. Bieber is dealing with right-forearm fatigue and will have his ramp-up during spring training delayed past Opening Day. Manager John Schneider said Bieber is feeling good and is playing catch, but he's week-to-week and won't start the season on time. The 30-year-old still hasn't recovered from the extra workload he took on last fall during the team's run to the World Series. Bieber pitched well in the postseason, but he made five appearances after making seven starts for Toronto in the regular season in his return from Tommy John surgery. He pitched well in his return and showed an increase in his velocity, but this is a reminder that Bieber carries significant injury risk.

Philadelphia 76ers center
Joel Embiid (knee) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's Eastern Conference showdown against the New York Knicks. Embiid has been a regular in the lineup since January but didn't play in Monday's loss to Portland to manage his knee injury. The former MVP hasn't missed back-to-back games since mid-December. Another absence for Embiid on Wednesday would allow
Andre Drummond to remain in the starting lineup. He had 11 points, seven rebounds, five assists, and two blocks in Monday's tilt. Adam Bona served as the backup center, finishing with seven points and one board.

Toronto Blue Jays manager John Schneider said that right-hander
Bowden Francis (elbow) will miss the entire 2026 season after undergoing UCL reconstruction, according to Mitch Bannon of The Athletic. Francis also missed time last year with a right-shoulder impingement and was limited to 64 innings over 14 starts during the regular season. The 29-year-old posted a career-worst 6.05 ERA (6.85 FIP) and 1.53 WHIP while striking out 54 and walking 27 in 2025 in his fourth year in the big leagues with the Jays. His strong 2024 campaign was aided by a .211 BABIP and 78.3 left-on-base percentage, but his split-finger fastball did prove to be a pretty nasty pitch. Francis was much easier to hit last year and allowed 19 home runs in just 64 innings of work. The former seventh-round pick by the Milwaukee Brewers in 2017 now faces a lengthy recovery.

Nashville Predators goaltender Juuse Saros will start for Finland against Slovakia on Wednesday. He is expected to be the team's No. 1 throughout the Olympic tournament, ahead of Kevin Lankinen of the Vancouver Canucks and Joonas Korpisalo of the Boston Bruins. Saros has not been at his best in 2025-26. He has no shutouts in 44 starts, posting a 21-17-5 record, a 3.20 goals-against average, and a .892 save percentage. The 30-year-old has allowed at least three goals in nine consecutive starts. Still, Saros remains Finland's best option in net and has previously performed at a high level with the team. Across the Four Nations Face-Off and three World Championships, Saros has gone 7-4 with Team Finland, allowing 1.71 goals with a .941 save percentage. He has tallied three shutouts in 11 games.
