Sam Darnold Out Sunday; Joe Flacco Will Start Again

New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold (shoulder) has been officially ruled out for Sunday’s contest versus Miami, allowing veteran signal caller Joe Flacco to step in for the second consecutive week.

Booms and Busts - Surprise Starts and Sits for Week 6 Lineups

The hits keep on coming during the 2020 season of fantasy football. Each week that passes by seems to bring yet another major talent crashing down due to injury. This past week it was Dak Prescott that was lost for the season with a broken ankle. As much as this injury affects the outlook for […]

Jacksonville Delivers No New Positive COVID-19 Tests Sunday

The game scheduled for Sunday between the Detroit Lions and Jacksonville Jaguars will go on as planned after the Jaguars announced Sunday morning that they had no new positive COVID-19 tests.

Dwayne Haskins Jr. Will Be Inactive Again Sunday

Washington Football Team quarterback Dwayne Haskins Jr. (illness) will not be on the team’s active roster for Sunday’s contest versus the Giants as he continues to battle a non-COVID-19 illness. Kyle Allen will hold down starting QB duties, with Alex Smith serving as his back-up. It’s unclear how the Washington QB situation will shake out […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 6) - Targets and Avoids

Five weeks into the season and we're starting to see who some teams really are. We already knew the Jets and Giants were awful, but are the Rams actually good? They're 4-1 with all their wins coming against the NFC East and their lone loss against the Bills. It'll also be real interesting to see […]

Drew Lock Should Make Expected Return As Starter Sunday

Signs had been pointing toward Denver Broncos quarterback Drew Lock (shoulder) returning to the field as the starter for Sunday’s game versus New England, and that appears to be the case, barring a last-minute setback. Lock last appeared in Week 2 before a shoulder injury forced him to cede way to a combination of Jeff […]

Baker Mayfield Gets Thumbs Up To Start Versus Steelers

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield (chest) will suit up for Sunday’s game against Pittsburgh, a confirmation of his own status that he provided earlier in the week. Mayfield is battling sore ribs, which could be a target against a defense as aggressive as the Steelers’. Working in Mayfield’s favor is that he has both Odell […]

Cowboys All-In On Andy Dalton As Starting QB At This Stage

The signing of Dallas Cowboys quarterback Andy Dalton was hailed as a savvy maneuver during the off-season as a means of getting Dak Prescott a veteran backup. Fast-forward to Week 6, and Dalton is the only QB on the active roster to start an NFL game. With the announcement Saturday that the Lions had signed […]

Jaguars Put 12 Practice Squad Players On Reserve/COVID-19 List

The Jacksonville Jaguars announced Saturday that they have placed 12 of their practice squad players on the league’s reserve/COVID-19 list ahead of Sunday’s contest against Detroit. At this point, there’s no reason to believe that the game between the Lions and Jaguars is in jeopardy, as Jacksonville is reportedly making the move as a precaution. […]

Denver Releases Blake Bortles; Indication Drew Lock Should Play

The tenure for veteran quarterback Blake Bortles with the Denver Broncos was short-lived, as he was released Saturday before appearing in a game with the team. The decision to move on from Bortles ahead of Sunday’s game versus New England is an extremely strong indicator that Drew Lock (shoulder), who is still tagged as questionable […]

Joe Flacco Avoidable Versus Dolphins

New York Jets quarterback Joe Flacco will get his second straight start in place of Sam Darnold (shoulder) who remains sidelined. The veteran quarterback was mediocre versus the Arizona Cardinals in Week 5. He completed 18 of 33 passing attempts for 195 passing yards and one touchdown in the loss. To be fair, it's not […]

Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

More delays, postponed games, and schedule changes. Get used to the new normal.

The waiver wire will be more important in 2020 than any previous season, especially after […]

Daniel Jones Searching For First Touchdown Since Week 1

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones has a good matchup in Week 6 as the sophomore signal caller will look to find the end zone for the first time since the season opener. Jones threw two touchdowns versus Pittsburgh in Week 1, but has struggled mightily since then as he has played himself out of […]

Lamar Jackson Draws Excellent Matchup In Week 6

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson will face off against the Philadelphia Eagles on the road in Week 6. Jackson is off to a slow start, by his own lofty standards, having rushed for just 238 yards and one touchdown through five games. He has a chance to post a big game against a Philly defense […]

Fantasy Football Trade Targets - Week 6

The fantasy trade market is always a fun one to evaluate.

Now, five weeks into the season, we have several big-name players underperforming […]

Think Twice About Joe Burrow In Week 6

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow will attempt to get back on track against Indianapolis on Sunday.

Brett Rypien Should Be Avoided If He Makes Another Start

There remains a chance that Denver Broncos quarterback Brett Rypien receives another start in Week 6 against the Patriots with Drew Lock (shoulder) questionable for Sunday's contest. It's looking more like Lock will make his return since suffering a right shoulder injury in Week 2, though. Rypien was up-and-down in the Week 4 win over […]

Drew Lock Questionable Against Patriots

Denver Broncos quarterback Drew Lock (shoulder) practiced in full all week but is still listed as questionable for Week 6 against the Patriots. We'd say Lock is on the right side of questionable after getting in full practices this week. The second-year QB has been out since he was injured in Week 2, but it's […]
