Buffalo Bills cornerback Tre'Davious White (knee) won't return to the Thanksgiving matchup against the Saints.

T.J. Watt Remains Limited On Thursday

Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker T.J. Watt (hip/knee) was limited in practice for the second consecutive day on Thursday.

Week 12 IDP Fantasy Football Rankings

Thanksgiving without football is something many of us have never had to experience. The Detroit Lions have been Turkey Day mainstays since 1934, and the Dallas Cowboys since 1966.

IDP Leagues - Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 12

We all do it. We get overconfident in our projections and we start making calls we shouldn’t. Whether you’re a desperate manager who started Tua and his terrific matchup over a "slumping" Aaron Rodgers this week, or a cheap dad who thinks Dr. Thunder is the same as Dr. Pepper (it isn't), everyone makes these […]

Bradley Chubb Returns To Practice

Denver Broncos head coach Vic Fangio said that pass-rusher Bradley Chubb (ankle) practiced on Monday after being on Injured Reserve.

Los Angeles Chargers defensive back Asante Samuel Jr. (head) exited Sunday Night Football versus the Steelers early with an injury.

Chargers Defense Set To Get Joey Bosa Back Sunday

Los Angeles Chargers defensive end Joey Bosa (health and safety protocols) is expected to get back on the field for Sunday's game against the Steelers, per Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network.

The New York Giants officially placed safety Logan Ryan on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday after he tested positive for the virus.

Khalil Mack To Have Season-Ending Foot Surgery

The Chicago Bears will place All-Pro pass-rusher Khalil Mack (foot) on Injured Reserve so that he can have season-ending foot surgery, according to sources.

Vita Vea Unlikely To Play Against Giants

Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive tackle Vita Vea (knee) wasn't at practice on Friday, and while he still has another day to get back on the practice field, he's unlikely to do so and probably will not be active on Monday night against the New York Giants after getting injured in the Week 10 loss to […]

T.J. Watt Looking Unlikely For Sunday Night

Pittsburgh Steelers pass-rusher T.J. Watt (hip, knee) missed his second practice of the week on Thursday and doesn't appear likely to play in Week 11 on Sunday night against the Los Angeles Chargers unless he returns to practice on Friday.

Joey Bosa On COVID-19 List As Close Contact

Los Angeles Chargers edge rusher Joey Bosa was put on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Tuesday as a close contact of defensive lineman Jerry Tillery, according to head coach Brandon Staley.

Week 11 IDP Fantasy Football Rankings

If you play in a long-standing keeper or dynasty league, now is the stage at which you commit to one of two things. You are either tuning your contender like an F1 going into Monaco, or you are scrapping it for parts. If you aren't doing one of these two things in dynasty, then you're […]
