Austin Hooper Has Six Dropped Passes This Year

Cleveland Browns tight end Austin Hooper has dropped six passes this year, which is tied for the most among tight ends, according to Pro Football Focus. Hooper has really struggled with quarterback Baker Mayfield, and he's dropped around 10% of his 61 targets. Hooper's 38 catches for 345 yards and three touchdowns are roughly half […]

Browns Looking To Upgrade Over Baker Mayfield?

The Cleveland Plain Dealer's Mary Kay Cabot says it's likely that the Cleveland Browns will decide to upgrade over quarterback Baker Mayfield this offseason, even if the QB resolves his differences with head coach Kevin Stefanski. According to sources, Mayfield felt like Stefanski's play-calling didn't always put him in a position to succeed or play […]

Another Missed Practice For Robby Anderson

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Robby Anderson (quadriceps) is missing his second straight practice of the week on Thursday. Anderson will need to get back on the practice field on Friday to have a chance at playing in the Week 18 regular season finale on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Panthers could be thin […]

Chase Edmonds Not Seen At Practice Thursday

Arizona Cardinals running back Chase Edmonds (ribs, toe) was not at the portion of practice open to the media on Thursday. Edmonds also missed the first practice of the week on Wednesday, so he's in real danger of missing the Week 18 regular season finale against the Seattle Seahawks this Sunday. Meanwhile, teammate James Conner […]

Buccaneers Officially Release Antonio Brown

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are officially releasing wide receiver Antonio Brown on Thursday, according to a league sources. Last week, Brown and his agent requested that the remaining $2 million in incentives in his contract for this season be guaranteed, according to general manager Jason Licht. However, the team declined to guarantee those incentives. Brown […]

Bears Place Justin Fields On COVID-19 List

The Chicago Bears placed rookie quarterback Justin Fields on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Thursday. Fields tested positive for the virus but is vaccinated, so there's a chance he could clear the league's COVID protocols and play in the Week 18 regular season finale on Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings. However, with his positive test coming […]

Baker Mayfield To Have Surgery Jan. 19

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield (shoulder) will have surgery to fix the torn labrum in his left shoulder on Jan. 19 in Los Angeles, according to a source. With Mayfield shutting it down with one game remaining in the regular season and electing to undergo surgery as soon as possible, he will have plenty of […]

Robby Anderson Listed As DNP Wednesday

Carolina Panthers wide receivers Robby Anderson (quadriceps) and Shi Smith (illness) were not able to practice on Wednesday. Anderson came just short of playing every single offensive snap in the Week 17 loss to the New Orleans Saints, so it's likely that his quad injury isn't too serious. As long as he's back on the […]

Chase Edmonds Dealing With Multiple Injuries

Arizona Cardinals running back Chase Edmonds (ribs, toe) missed practice on Wednesday. This is certainly something to watch, as Edmonds has carried the ball 34 times for 109 yards (3.21 yards per carry) and a touchdown while adding 13 receptions on 15 targets for an additional 100 yards through the air with James Conner (heel) […]

Nelson Agholor Could Return This Week

New England Patriots wide receiver Nelson Agholor (concussion) managed a limited practice on Wednesday after sitting out the last two games with a concussion. Agholor appears to be progressing through the league's concussion protocol, though, and he could have a chance at playing in the Week 18 regular season finale against the Miami Dolphins. However, […]

Elijah Mitchell Misses Practice Wednesday

San Francisco 49ers rookie running back Elijah Mitchell (knee) was held out of practice on Wednesday. It's unclear if this is just the 49ers resting Mitchell ahead of a must-win game in Week 18 against the Los Angeles Rams or if he suffered a setback in the Week 17 win over the Houston Texans. We'll […]

Emmanuel Sanders Misses Practice On Wednesday

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders (knee) missed the team's practice on Wednesday. Sanders was unable to play in the Week 17 win over the Atlanta Falcons and might be held out again in the Week 18 regular season finale on Sunday against the New York Jets so that he can be ready to go […]

Antonio Brown To Have Ankle Surgery

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Antonio Brown (ankle) said in a statement that an MRI last week "shows broken bone fragments" and a "ligament torn from the bone." He plans to have surgery on his ankle and claims that head coach Bruce Arians essentially cut him in Week 17 against the New York Jets when […]

Michael Carter Unable To Return To Practice

New York Jets rookie running back Michael Carter (concussion) was unable to return to practice on Wednesday after suffering a concussion in the Week 17 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Despite the missed practice, the Jets are optimistic that he can clear the league's concussion protocol and play in the Week 18 regular season […]

No Practice For Braxton Berrios On Wednesday

New York Jets wide receiver Braxton Berrios (quadriceps) was listed as a DNP on Wednesday's practice report. The Jets don't appear to be very worried that Berrios' injury will keep him from playing in the Week 18 regular season finale against the Buffalo Bills, so we'd expect Berrios to return to practice in the coming […]

Tre'Quan Smith, Mark Ingram II Limited Wednesday

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith (chest) and running back Mark Ingram II (knee) were both limited in practice on Wednesday after sitting out the Week 17 win over the Carolina Panthers. It looks as though the Saints could be getting both players back in a Week 18 must-win regular season finale against the […]

Julio Jones Limited In Practice Wednesday

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Julio Jones (hamstring) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday. Jones sat out in Week 17 due to COVID-19, but he should be back on the field in the Week 18 regular season finale against the Houston Texans as the Titans look to lock up the No. 1 seed […]

Lamar Jackson Not On The Practice Field Wednesday

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (ankle) missed yet another practice on Wednesday. The Ravens refuse to rule Jackson out for the Week 18 regular season finale against the Pittsburgh Steelers this Sunday, but the writing seems to on the wall for the 24-year-old to miss yet another game as the Ravens look to keep their […]

James O'Shaughnessy Still Not Practicing

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end James O'Shaughnessy (hip) missed another practice on Wednesday after sitting out of the Week 17 blowout loss to the New England Patriots. It's not a good start for O'Shaughnessy this week, and he'll need to get back on the field in the next two days in order to have a shot […]

Kadarius Toney Puts In Limited Practice Wednesday

New York Giants rookie wide receiver Kadarius Toney (shoulder) was able to practice on Wednesday in a limited fashion. Darius Slayton, who is returning from the COVID-19 list, was also limited as he ramps his activity back up. Toney, a 22-year-old first-round pick, missed last week's game after suffering a shoulder injury in Week 16, […]

Ricky Seals-Jones, Curtis Samuel Out Wednesday

Washington Football Team tight end Ricky Seals-Jones (concussion) and wide receiver Curtis Samuel (hamstring) both missed practice on Wednesday. Seals-Jones was stretchered off the field last Sunday after a scary incident on the sidelined when he collided with a cameraman. With just one game left in the season, it's highly unlikely that Seals-Jones plays in […]

Kareem Hunt Limited In Practice Wednesday

Cleveland Browns running back Kareem Hunt (ankle) put in a limited practice to start the week on Wednesday. Hunt has been out since Week 14, so it remains to be seen how much of a role he'll have in Cleveland's backfield in the Week 18 regular season finale on Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals. The […]

C.J. Uzomah Misses First Practice Of The Week

Cincinnati Bengals tight end C.J. Uzomah (hip, knee) missed the team's first practice of the week on Wednesday. Uzomah did play over 90% of the offensive snaps in the Week 17 win over the Kansas City Chiefs, so his injury probably isn't all that serious. However, with the Bengals potentially resting most of their starters […]

Clyde Edwards-Helaire Misses Another Practice

Kansas City Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire (shoulder) missed his second straight practice of the week on Wednesday. Edwards-Helaire has yet to practice or play since suffering his shoulder injury in Week 16, so he's trending toward missing a second straight game in the Week 18 regular season finale this Saturday against the Denver Broncos. […]

David Johnson Back At Practice Wednesday

Houston Texans running back David Johnson (quadriceps) was activated from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday and wasn't listed on the initial injury report for Week 18. As such, he should be available to play in the Week 18 regular season finale on Sunday against the Tennessee Titans after missing the last two contests. Johnson himself […]

Chargers Activate Jared Cook From COVID-19 List

The Los Angeles Chargers activated tight end Jared Cook from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday, according to head coach Brandon Staley. Cook missed the team's Week 17 win over the Denver Broncos, but he'll be back for Sunday night's win-and-in showdown against the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders on the road. In Cook's absence last Sunday, […]

Tevin Coleman Activated From COVID-19 List

The New York Jets activated running back Tevin Coleman, tight end Tyler Kroft and defensive lineman Quinnen Williams from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday. Coleman missed the Week 17 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers but will be available for the Week 18 regular season finale on Sunday against the Buffalo Bills. It's notable with […]

Ronald Jones II In A Walking Boot

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arians said that running back Ronald Jones II (ankle) was in a walking boot on Wednesday, which is why he missed practice. However, Arians isn't yet ruling Jones out for Sunday's game against the Carolina Panthers in the Week 18 regular season finale. The fact that Jones won't try […]

Jared Goff Unsure If He'll Play Sunday

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff (knee) said he honestly doesn't know if he'll be able to play on Sunday against the Green Bay Packers in the Week 18 regular season finale. Goff was able to practice on a limited basis on Wednesday, but he won't know until later in the week if he'll be able […]

Justin Fields Will Start Against Vikings

Chicago Bears head coach Matt Nagy said that rookie quarterback Justin Fields (ankle) will practice in full on Wednesday and will start on Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings in the Week 18 regular season finale. With nothing left to play for, Fields appears to be 100%, otherwise it's highly unlikely the Bears would risk further […]
