You should always be trying to buy star players that are in the midst of poor stretches of performance in fantasy football. It's fine to have a healthy dose of skepticism about them meeting their full potential this season, but it's not always their fault when they're not scoring a lot. There are numerous things […]

Many of you have been impacted by the recent avalanche of injuries at multiple positions, including the growing collection of health issues that have reshaped the running back landscape. That includes fantasy managers who had David Montgomery or Will Shipley in their Week 5 lineups, as both backs were forced to the sideline during their […]

New York Jets running back Breece Hall (quad) has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 6 matchup against the New England Patriots, according to Adam Schefter. Hall injured his quadriceps late in Week 3 against Detroit and will now miss his third consecutive game. Braelon Allen has taken full advantage of the opportunity, rushing for […]

Hey RotoBallers! With many breakout players and high-end handcuffs on the waiver wire, managers may need to cut ties with a non-producing player whose stock has dropped to improve their roster. While it may be difficult to drop these once-proven assets, they have not contributed much to your roster, and managers looking to get ahead […]

Washington Commanders running back Rachaad White (shoulder) played 60% of the offensive snaps in his Week 5 return against the New York Giants, but that playing time translated into just 20 yards from scrimmage. He managed 18 yards on seven carries and caught his only target for two yards, while Jacory Croskey-Merritt rushed for 82 […]

At this point in the NFL regular season, fantasy football managers should have a pretty good idea of their rosters' strengths and weaknesses. Offseason hype and preconceived notions can mostly be disregarded now, as most teams have provided five weeks of actual data we can evaluate. As a result, I expect my trade advice in […]

We're now five weeks into the NFL season, and we're already seeing some movement in the trade market. Crazy, isn't it? I'm back with another weekly bold predictions article after a one-week absence. Week 4's article went well, with Drake Maye, Derrick Henry, and Chris Olave having good weeks. J.J. McCarthy would have to wait […]

After a strong start to the 2026 season, Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum has regressed significantly. In the first two games, Corum had 22 carries for 131 yards, outperforming starter Kyren Williams in efficiency. Since Week 3, he has not had more than six carries in a game and has averaged just three […]

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara has been a non-factor in fantasy despite the injury to starting back Travis Etienne Jr. In four games this season, Kamara has had 28 carries for 86 yards and two touchdowns, plus 13 receptions for 41 yards. He is on pace for his lowest totals in attempts (7.0), […]

Let's go RotoBallers! I'm coming off my best DFS week, which netted a four-figure win and another $555 millionaire satellite ticket. I want to keep it rolling in Week 6, and I hope everyone's with me! We have some key players on bye this week, including all the Lions, Bengals, and Vikings, so builds are... […]

Although Joe Burrow, Jared Goff, Justin Jefferson, Jahmyr Gibbs, and Ja’Marr Chase are all on a bye, we can rejoice that Bryce Young is back in our player pool. How did we ever survive a week without the chosen one? My son is a massive Panthers fan, so I may have written this paragraph just... […]

We have another 12 games on the main slate this week, and there are some big ones. LSU and Mississippi State have an implied total north of 60 points. Ole Miss and Missouri are close to that number. Seven more teams have an implied total of 30 or higher. Hitting the right stack is going […]

Denver Broncos running back J.K. Dobbins churned out 41 yards and a touchdown on 17 rushes in his team's 17-14 win over the Seattle Seahawks. He also caught all three of his targets for a gain of five yards. Dobbins got the Broncos on the board early in the second quarter with a four-yard touchdown. […]

Seattle Seahawks running back Emanuel Wilson rushed for 52 yards on 14 carries in his team's 17-14 loss to the Denver Broncos on the road. He failed to bring in his lone target. Wilson was riding a two-game touchdown streak into Week 6, but couldn't come through again for fantasy managers in what was a […]

Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty (foot) logged another full practice Thursday, per ESPN's Ryan McFadden. Jeanty has been battling foot and ankle issues since training camp, but it appears he is trending toward being active for the Raiders' Week 6 matchup against the Buffalo Bills. The 22-year-old has been highly inefficient as a […]

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley (hamstring) was officially a non-participant in practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Barkley tweaked his hamstring in the Week 4 loss to the Los Angeles Rams and sat out of Sunday's tie to the division-rival New York Giants as a result. With the 29-year-old not yet returning […]

Updating a previous report, Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs has filed a civil suit seeking a permanent injunction restricting access to records from his May 23 altercation with a woman at his home, according to Rob Demovsky of ESPN. Jacobs' attorneys said that their client's filing "is an effort to assist" the woman […]

Houston Texans running back David Montgomery (groin) will not travel with the team to London and has been ruled out for the Week 6 contest on Sunday against the division-rival Jacksonville Jaguars, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. The 29-year-old was expected to miss time after injuring his groin early in the Week 5 win […]

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears (knee) went from being a limited participant in practice on Wednesday to sitting out on Thursday due to a knee injury. Midweek downgrades typically are not good signs, and the 25-year-old is now trending in the wrong direction to play in Week 6 against the division-rival Indianapolis Colts on […]

Chicago Bears running back Kyle Monangai (toe, thumb) did not practice on Thursday, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. Monangai is battling a thumb injury and turf toe, which caused him to miss Chicago's Week 5 loss to the Green Bay Packers and could hold him out of his team's Week 6 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. […]

We've got a game from the American, a game in the Sun Belt that may soon contain teams from the American, and a low-key good Big Ten matchup for our Friday DraftKings slate. What more can we ask for? There are no later games on our Friday slate this week, which is unusual for how […]

Arizona Cardinals rookie first-round running back Jeremiyah Love (ankle) was absent from his team's practice for the second straight day on Thursday, per Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic. Love is battling a lingering ankle issue. While he's played through the injury to this point, it appears the team could be trending toward holding him […]

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Rico Dowdle (toe) practiced in full on Thursday, per Mike DeFabo of The Athletic. Dowdle has been sidelined since Week 2 with a toe injury, but it appears he could be trending toward returning in Week 6 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Before suffering the injury, Dowdle recorded 65 yards from […]

Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty (foot) told reporters Thursday that he feels great and is feeling better physically than at any previous point this season, according to Ryan McFadden. The second-year back has battled an ankle injury since August and more recently developed a foot issue that left him questionable for Sunday's loss […]

Carolina Panthers running back Jonathon Brooks (groin) was spotted jogging at Thursday's practice, according to Sheena Quick, an encouraging development in his recovery from a core-muscle injury. Brooks aggravated a lingering groin issue during Carolina's Week 2 victory over Atlanta and underwent surgery after being placed on injured reserve September 23. Head coach Dave Canales […]

Week 6 is upon us. Where has the time gone? It seems like we just finished fantasy drafts and were excited to watch this year’s breakout players. Now we’re a month into the season, and Halloween is only a few weeks away. The fantasy football season stops for no one. What also never stops is […]

Hey RotoBallers! It's already time to begin turning our attention to Week 6 of the NFL season. With now more than a month of data in the books, it is becoming even easier to spot potential lineup landmines. Below, we will look at one player from each position (QB, RB, WR, TE) who could disappoint […]

New England Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson (ankle) was present for the team's practice on Thursday, according to Evan Lazar of the team's official website. Henderson was surprisingly listed as limited in the first practice of the week on Wednesday, and the Boston Herald's Doug Kyed reports that the 23-year-old was in pads before Thursday's […]

For the second straight day, Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley (hamstring) was not seen during warmups on Thursday, according to Brooks Kubena of The Athletic. Barkley injured his hamstring in the Week 4 win over the Los Angeles Rams and was held out of the Week 5 loss in London to the Jacksonville Jaguars. […]

Five games have passed without Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs, and the team still has no date for his return. Unlike most players featured in injury updates, Jacobs is not sidelined by a reported football injury. He remains on the NFL's Commissioner's Exempt List while the league reviews a personal-conduct matter. That leaves […]
