"He's full go. He's as tough as it gets. We're not going to be running any zone read […]

Derek Carr Limited In Wednesday's Practice
New Orleans Saints head coach Dennis Allen said that quarterback Derek Carr (shoulder) threw a bit more in practice on Wednesday.

Should I Drop Kenny Pickett? Fantasy Football Outlook
The Pittsburgh Steelers entered this season with a lot of optimism, particularly on the offensive side of the ball. Despite the hype that surrounded this team in the offseason, the Steelers have stumbled out to a 2-2 start, where their offense has looked subpar. Pittsburgh currently ranks 29th in total offense, and second-year quarterback Kenny […]

Sam Howell A Strong Streaming Option In Week 5
Washington Commanders quarterback Sam Howell could be in line for another solid outing in Week 5. After a strong day in Week 4 against the Philadelphia Eagles, the second-year quarterback has the privilege of taking on the Chicago Bears' bottom-five pass defense. So far this season, Chicago has allowed a top-10 fantasy performance to opposing […]

Joe Burrow Optimistic About His Health
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (calf) said he's optimistic about his calf injury after Sunday was the best he's felt this year after a game. Health-wise he was feeling good, but Burrow couldn't have felt good about his performance in the Week 4 loss to the Tennessee Titans. In the loss, Burrow went 20-for-30 for […]

Justin Fields Remains A Shaky Fantasy Play In Week 5
Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields will kick off Week 5 Thursday in Washington against the Commanders. Fields is coming off his best game of the season and easily his best passing game as a pro. The third-year quarterback totaled 335 passing yards and four touchdowns against the Broncos last week but two critical turnovers doomed […]

Houston Texans offensive tackle Tytus Howard (hand) suffered a broken hand this offseason, resulting in him missing the team's first four games while on Injured Reserve.

Kenny Pickett Says He'll Play In Week 5
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett (knee) suffered a bone bruise to his knee in the Week 4 loss to the Houston Texans.

Deshaun Watson's Injury Shouldn't Be A Factor Moving Forward
Cleveland Browns general manager Andrew Berry said he's "optimistic" that quarterback Deshaun Watson's (shoulder) throwing shoulder won't be a factor going forward and that it "will heal in the short-term."

Should I Drop Mac Jones? Fantasy Football Outlook
The New England Patriots have been searching for an answer at quarterback since Tom Brady left. In 2021, the team used a first-round pick on Alabama's Mac Jones to see if he could fill the position.
