Joe Mixon Disappoints Despite Favorable Matchup

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon ran for just 50 yards during the overtime loss to Miami in Week 16. He also had two receptions for 23 yards. Although Mixon was going up against a Dolphins Defense that allowed the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing backs over the last month, the 23-year-old had a disappointing […]

Gus Edwards Rushes For 66 Yards In Relief

Baltimore Ravens running back Gus Edwards rushed 12 times for 66 yards in a win over the Browns Sunday. Edwards added one catch for seven yards through the air. Edwards got more usage than expected with Mark Ingram (calf) leaving with an injury in the second half. This win wrapped up the top seed in […]

Justice Hill Scores First Career Touchdown

Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill rushed three times for 19 yards and his first career touchdown Sunday in Cleveland. Hill added 32 receiving yards on three receptions. Hill got more involved in the offense after Mark Ingram (calf) went down with an injury. Baltimore wrapped up home-field advantage with this win so expect Gus […]

Mark Ingram Has Calf Strain

Baltimore Ravens running back Mark Ingram rushed for 55 yards and caught two passes for 36 yards and a touchdown before leaving with a calf injury Sunday. Ingram left the game with a non-contact injury, but seems to have avoided the worst. He is scheduled for an MRI Monday to gather more information. As of […]

Mark Ingram May Have Avoided Serious Injury

Baltimore Ravens running back Mark Ingram (calf) left the game early in the Week 16 win over the Browns, but the initial feeling is that he avoided structural damage. Head coach John Harbaugh said that Ingram, who was in a protective boot after the game, will undergo an MRI exam on Monday. The hope is […]

Leonard Fournette Finishes With Over 100 Scrimmage Yards

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette managed to make the most of a rough game for his team in Week 16, taking his 15 carries for 71 yards and adding 34 receiving yards on three catches. He was the most productive member of the Jaguars by far in this one and continued his strong presence […]

Latavius Murray Stifled By Titans

New Orleans Saints running back Latavius Murray carried the ball seven times for 14 yards and caught two of three targets for 11 yards in a 38-28 win over the Tennessee Titans. Murray couldn't find any room to run against Tennessee, though teammate Alvin Kamara had no such trouble. He's now failed to exceed 50 […]

Alvin Kamara Busts Out Of Slump With 110 Yards, Two TDs

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara picked up 80 rushing yards with two touchdowns on 11 totes and caught six of seven targets for 30 yards in a 38-28 win over the Tennessee Titans. Kamara's nine-week touchdown-less streak is no more, as he explosively broke free for a 40-yard scamper in the third quarter. […]

Le'Veon Bell Bottled Up Versus Steelers

New York Jets running back Le'Veon Bell rushed 25 times for 72 yards and caught all four of his targets for an additional 21 yards in a win vs the Steelers Sunday. The Jets fed Bell all the touches he could handle vs his former team, but there was no room to run vs a […]

Mark Ingram Questionable To Return With Calf Injury

Baltimore Ravens running back Mark Ingram (calf) injured his calf in Week 16 against the Browns and is questionable to return. This could be a serious injury, and if it is, it's bad news for an explosive offense entering the postseason. The good news is that Baltimore will have a first-round bye and can rest […]

Jordan Howard, Nelson Agholor Out Against Dallas

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jordan Howard (shoulder) and wide receiver Nelson Agholor (knee) are both officially inactive for Week 16 against the Cowboys. This comes as no surprise. Howard has missed the last six games and Agholor will miss his third straight contest. If the Eagles lose this battle for the NFC East title, expect […]

Bo Scarbrough Active Against Broncos

Detroit Lions running back Bo Scarbrough (ribs) is active for Week 16 against the Broncos. Scarbrough is returning after a one-week absence, but he won't be fantasy relevant for the fantasy finals with Kerryon Johnson (knee) coming off Injured Reserve. Johnson could have his snaps limited after a two-month absence, but his presence alone in […]

James Conner Injured In Week 16

Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner (thigh) is questionable to return in Week 16 against the Jets with a thigh injury. It's not a huge surprise, as Conner has been a disappointment to fantasy owners this year because of injuries. Conner ran the ball six times for 32 yards before departing, and he wasn't targeted […]

Doug Marrone, Dave Caldwell Have Chance To Stick Around

There is a "good chance" that both Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Doug Marrone and general manager Dave Caldwell return in 2020 following the firing of executive vice president Tom Coughlin, according to sources. Heading into Week 16, Jacksonville sits in last place in the AFC South with a 5-9 record. Free-agent signing Nick Foles broke […]

Derrick Henry Officially Out Against Saints

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry (hamstring) is officially out for Week 16 against the Saints. Things were trending this way when Henry was downgraded to questionable on Saturday, and now fantasy owners will be without the most productive running back in the second half of the season for the fantasy finals. That's a really […]

Joe Mixon Has Stomach Bug

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon is dealing with a stomach bug, and while he's expected to play against the Dolphins in Week 16, there are questions about how much of a workload Mixon will get. Fantasy owners who are starting Mixon in their fantasy championships might still want to roll the dice with Mixon […]

Alexander Mattison Not Expected To Play In Week 16

Minnesota Vikings running back Alexander Mattison (ankle) is unlikely to play on Monday night against the Packers, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. With Dalvin Cook already ruled out, this would leave control of the Vikings backfield to Mike Boone, who scored a pair of touchdowns last week. Boone should be considered an RB2 due to […]

Kerryon Johnson Should See Significant Work In Return

Detroit Lions running back Kerryon Johnson is back from the IR, and reports indicate that the Lions plan to give him a significant workload in his first game back. It's a bit of an odd choice considering the Lions don't have any postseason hopes and Johnson's long term health should be a priority, but expect […]

Jordan Howard Expected To Be Inactive

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jordan Howard (shoulder) is expected to be inactive against the Cowboys in Week 16. Howard hasn't played since Week 9, and with Miles Sanders and Boston Scott playing well, the team doesn't need to rush Howard back to the field. Sanders in particular should be set for a strong performance against […]

NFL DFS Cash Game Value Plays for FanDuel, DraftKings (Week 16)

After a fantastic week with a 13-game slate last Sunday, Week 16 sees us drop back down to an 11-game slate thanks to the triple-header on Saturday. In some ways, I actually prefer that, because it gives us two slates to play on the weekend. Even though Saturday's games are taking away a number of […]

Derrick Henry Expected To Be Out

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry (hamstring) isn't expected to play in Week 16 against the Saints. Henry has been dealing with the ailment for a while, but with the Titans fighting for a playoff spot, this is obviously not good news. Fantasy managers will need to plan that the 25-year-old will be absent, with […]
