John Brown Finally Breaks Out Of Slump
Buffalo Bills wide receiver John Brown's last four games have been fairly rough, as he's caught just five balls for 63 yards on 13 targets during that span. Brown topped those numbers against the Seahawks on Sunday, catching eight passes for 99 yards in his team's victory. It was a reminder of what Brown was […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoStefon Diggs Has Huge Week 9
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs caught nine of his 12 targets in Sunday's win over the Seattle Seahawks, recording a team-high 118 yards. The Bills wound up throwing more than usual in this game, and while it remains to be seen if the team's reliance on passing will continue going forward, Diggs should continue […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoZack Moss Finds End Zone Against Seattle
Buffalo Bills rookie running back Zack Moss too hold of the team's No. 1 running back role on Sunday against Seattle, with a team-high nine carries to Devin Singletary's two. Moss struggled to really get going, with just 18 yards on his carries, but he did score a rushing touchdown, and his two yards per […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoJosh Allen Comes Up Big Against Seahawks
Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen had a huge Week 9 game against the Seattle Seahawks, going 31-for-38 for 415 yards and three touchdowns. He added seven carries for 14 yards and a rushing score as well. Questions had arisen about Allen's recent play as some of his accuracy issues had returned, but those questions didn't […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoRussell Gage Unable To Take Advantage Of Ridley's Absence
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Russell Gage caught two of his six targets in Sunday's win over the Denver Broncos, finishing with 11 yards. With Calvin Ridley out, Gage was a popular pick to take on a larger workload, but it was Olamide Zaccheaus who had the huge day as the team's secondary receiver. This was […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoPreston Williams Appears To Have Foot Sprain
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Preston Williams exited Sunday's game against the Cardinals with a foot injury and didn't return. X-Rays didn't show any major issues on the foot, so it appears for now that Williams is dealing with a sprain. While he may still miss time, this appears to be one of the better outcomes […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoBen Roethlisberger Limps To Locker Room
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger has limped to the locker room with a little over a minute remaining in the first half against the Dallas Cowboys. Roethlisberger went down awkwardly during Pittsburgh's last drive, but stayed in the game despite the potential injury. Considering he stayed in the game, it's likely we see Roethlisberger in […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoPreston Williams Carted To Locker Room
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Preston Williams has been carted to the locker room with a foot injury during Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals. Williams had four catches for 60 yards and a touchdown when he exited and had all but one of the receptions by Dolphins receivers at the time. If he's unable to […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoAlec Ingold Questionable To Return
Las Vegas Raiders fullback Alec Ingold is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Chargers with a rib injury. Ingold's importance doesn't show up on the stat sheet, but he's been a useful blocker while playing an increased number of snaps over the past three games. Life gets a little more difficult for running […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoTaco Charlton Will Be Placed On Injured Reserve
Kansas City Chiefs defensive lineman Taco Charlton suffered a lower leg fracture in Sunday's win over the Carolina Panthers and will be placed on Injured Reserve, says head coach Andy Reid. Charlton has been a solid rotational piece for Kansas City this year, who'll miss having him for depth and the occasional sack. This shouldn't […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoJustin Jackson Questionable To Return In Week 9
Los Angeles Chargers running back Justin Jackson (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Las Vegas Raiders. Jackson exited in the first quarter and had not recorded a carry or reception. If he's unable to return, expect to see copious amounts of Joshua Kelley in his place for the remainder of the […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoMatthew Stafford Being Evaluated For Concussion
Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford exited Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings to be evaluated for a concussion. Chase Daniel is in at quarterback for the Lions and has already thrown an interception. If Stafford is ruled out, he'll finish 23-for-32 for 211 yards with a touchdown and a pair of picks. Not a great […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoJack Doyle Ruled Out With Concussion
Indianapolis Colts tight end Jack Doyle has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Ravens with a concussion. Doyle ends the day no catches. With Doyle out, the Colts will look to Mo Alie-Cox and Trey Burton more at tight end, but this offense has been spreading the ball around to […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoJosh Jacobs Active For Week 9
As expected, Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs (knee, illness) will play against the Chargers in Week 9. Appearing on the injury list late in the week, it looked like Jacobs's status could be in doubt, but he should be good to go. The Chargers Defense has struggled against opposing running backs, making Jacobs […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoEzekiel Elliott Has "Encouraging Pregame Warmup"
Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott (hamstring) has had his Week 9 status up in the air all week, but ESPN's Chris Mortensen reports that Elliott had an "encouraging pregame warmup." That seems to indicate that Elliott is trending towards playing against a strong Steelers Defense. With Garrett Gilbert starting at quarterback, the Cowboys will […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoDavid Johnson Ruled Out In Week 9
Houston Texans running back David Johnson has been ruled out for the remainder of his team's Week 9 contest against the Jaguars with a concussion. Johnson joins linebacker Brennan Scarlet (arm) as Texans players who were ruled out of Sunday's game. Johnson has been replaced for the remainder of this game by Duke Johnson Jr. […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoKyle Allen Diagnosed With Dislocated Ankle
The initial diagnosis on Washington Football Team quarterback Kyle Allen's injury is a dislocated ankle, but Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network says the fracture is small, which appears to make the injury slightly better than it initially looked. Allen is going to miss time, though, and we should expect someone else -- likely Alex […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoKyle Allen Exits On Sunday
Washington Football Team quarterback Kyle Allen (leg) has left Sunday's game against the New York Giants with what appears to be a fairly significant leg injury. If Allen is unable to return to this game or moving forward, expect Alex Smith will take over as the team's starting quarterback. Smith is currently in at quarterback […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoDavid Johnson Being Evaluated For Concussion
Houston Texans running back David Johnson left Sunday's game against the Jaguars to be evaluated for a concussion. If he's unable to return, Duke Johnson Jr. would see an uptick in snaps and would likely serve as the main back on both rushing and passing downs for a Texans team that doesn't have much running […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoTaco Charlton Questionable To Return For Chiefs Defense
Kansas City Chiefs defensive end Taco Charlton (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Carolina Panthers. Charlton has been rejuvenated in Kansas City this season, with two sacks in six games as a rotational line piece. His absence won't kill this defense, but they would take a slight knock if he's unable […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoNoah Fant Limps Off
Denver Broncos tight end Noah Fant limped off the field during the first quarter of Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons. Fant has one reception for 32 yards in the game. If he's unable to return, we'll get a chance to see more of tight end Albert Okwuegbunam against a susceptible Falcons Defense.
Justin Carter 4 years agoD.J. Chark Jr. Risky With Rookie Quarterback Starting
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver D.J. Chark Jr. remains the No. 1 receiver in Jacksonville following the team's bye, but with rookie quarterback Jake Luton starting for the first time, Chark becomes significantly riskier than usual. His talent and role always give him WR2 upside, but Chark should be viewed as more of a WR3 play […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoJake Luton A Risky Play In First NFL Start
Jacksonville Jaguars rookie quarterback Jake Luton will earn his first NFL start on Sunday against the Houston Texans with Gardner Minshew II (thumb) out. It's a good matchup for Luton against a Texans Defense that allows the 11th-most fantasy points per game to quarterbacks, but this offense has a lot of question marks, and even […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoMark Ingram II Out For Week 9
Baltimore Ravens running back Mark Ingram II (ankle) is inactive for the team's Week 9 contest against the Indianapolis Colts. No surprise here, as Ingram was listed as doubtful ahead of the contest. J.K. Dobbins should serve as the team's lead back this week, with Gus Edwards getting red zone looks. Both players have upside, […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoDawson Knox Active For Week 9
Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox (calf) is active for Week 9 against the Seattle Seahawks. Knox didn't practice all week due to being on the COVID-19 list, but he appears good to go for what should be a game that'll be heavy on offense. The Seahawks Defense has gotten a lot of negative attention […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoIsaiah Coulter Inactive For Week 9
Houston Texans wide receiver Isaiah Coulter's NFL debut will have to wait. Despite being added to the active roster this past week, Coulter is a healthy scratch against the Jaguars. It's likely that Coulter joined the roster on the chance that the team made wide receiver trades and had a sudden need for the rookie […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoSteven Sims Jr. Active, Dontrelle Inman Inactive
Washington Football Team wide receiver Dontrelle Inman (hamstring) is inactive for Week 9 against the New York Giants, but wide receiver Steven Sims Jr. (toe) will make his return on Sunday. Sims has a decent floor based on his past production this season, though we'd need to see how his rapport with quarterback Kyle Allen […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoT.Y. Hilton Inactive For Week 9
Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (groin) will not play against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 9. Hilton's frustrating 2020 season continues. He's struggled in all phases of the receiving game this season and is droppable in shallower leagues. Zach Pascal, Michael Pittman Jr., and Marcus Johnson will see more consistent usage with Hilton out, […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoCalvin Ridley Inactive For Week 9
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley (foot) is officially inactive for Sunday's game against the Denver Broncos. Ridley's status had been up in the air all week, and now we know that the budding star won't be on the field for Week 9. With Ridley sidelined, expect to see more of Russell Gage, who has […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoMiles Sanders, Alshon Jeffery To Return To Practice Next Week
Two key pieces for the Philadelphia Eagles are expected to return to practice this week. Running back Miles Sanders (knee) will return after exiting early in Week 6, while wide receiver Alshon Jeffery (calf) looks to make his season debut. Sanders should immediately go back to being a fantasy RB2 once he's on the field, […]
