Saints Expect A More Balanced Running Attack

New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton expects the team's rushing attack to be more balanced moving forward now that running back Mark Ingram is back in the picture. Ingram returned to the field last Monday night against the Redskins after a four-game suspension and logged 18 offensive touches, while Alvin Kamara had just nine. […]

No Sign Of Le'Veon Bell Monday

There has been no sign of Pittsburgh Steelers running back Le'Veon Bell at the team's headquarters following their Week 6 win over the Bengals. The players are scheduled to meet on Monday, practice on Tuesday and Wednesday and then be off until next Monday during their bye week. Bell was expected to report at some […]

Raiders Not Shopping Amari Cooper?

Oakland Raiders head coach Jon Gruden deflected questions about the team's interest in shopping wide receiver Amari Cooper for a trade after their blowout loss to the Seahawks in London on Sunday. “I don’t know,” Gruden said of the trade report. “I haven’t heard that. I’m just sorry to have to deal with a lot […]

Chris Sale In Hospital With Stomach Issue

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Chris Sale (illness) was admitted to Massachusetts General Hospital on Sunday after dealing with a stomach illness. He was not with the team for Game 2 and will be kept overnight for evaluation. It could explain while the team's ace was uncharacteristically wild in Game 1 of the American League […]

Ronald Leary Could Have Torn Achilles

Denver Broncos left guard Ronald Leary (Achilles) is feared to have suffered a torn Achilles in the Week 6 loss to the Rams, according to a source. It would be a big blow to an offensive line that is nothing special in front of a very mediocre Case Keenum under center. Expect Max Garcia to […]

Case Keenum To Remain Broncos Quarterback

Denver Broncos head coach Vance Joseph gave quarterback Case Keenum a vote of confidence after the Week 6 loss to the Rams. “Case is our quarterback," Joseph said. Keenum has back-to-back games with 300 yards after going 25-for-41 for 322 yards, two touchdowns and one interception against Los Angeles. However, the Broncos have now lost […]

Patriots Playmakers Are Active Against Chiefs

New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski (ankle), rookie running back Sony Michel (knee) and wide receivers Josh Gordon (hamstring) and Chris Hogan (thigh) are all active on Sunday night against the Chiefs. Against a bad Chiefs defense, Gronkowski is a top fantasy tight end. Michel has RB1 upside as the lead back between the […]

Tavon Austin Ruled Out With Groin Injury

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Tavon Austin (groin) suffered a groin injury in the second half of Week 6 against the Jaguars and has been ruled out for the rest of the game. Austin caught his lone target for just five yards before leaving the game. He remains mostly a gadget player in a bad passing […]

Justin Pugh Suffers Broken Hand

Arizona Cardinals right guard Justin Pugh (hand) said that he suffered a broken left hand in the Week 6 loss to the Vikings. It's another bad sign for a beleaguered offensive line, although Pugh could wind up playing through the injury and wearing a cast. Jeremy Vujnovich would likely take over if Pugh has to […]

Marcus Johnson Suffers Ankle Injury In Week 6

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Marcus Johnson (ankle) suffered an ankle injury in the Week 6 loss to the Jets and was carted off the field late in the game, according to head coach Frank Reich. Johnson caught two of his three targets for 52 yards and a touchdown in the game. The Colts continue to […]

Derek Carr's Shoulder Injury Not Believed To Be Serious

Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr's (shoulder) injury isn't believed to be serious. With Oakland's bye coming in Week 7, he may not have to miss a game. Carr was injured late in the game and was replaced by AJ McCarron with the game well out of hand in London. Carr continued to look terrible in […]

Mike Hughes Could Have Torn ACL

The Minnesota Vikings fear that rookie cornerback Mike Hughes, their first-round pick, suffered a torn ACL in the Week 6 win over the Cardinals, according to league sources. Hughes will have an MRI exam on Monday. It'll be a blow to the team's secondary, but the Vikings remain a strong fantasy defense while facing impressive […]

Cooper Kupp Returns Against Broncos

In a surprise development, Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp (knee) has returned in the second half of the Week 6 game against the Broncos after being carted off in the first half. Kupp's fantasy owners and the Rams are really fortunate, as his injury looked pretty ugly. Kupp, Robert Woods and Brandin Cooks […]

Dallas Keuchel, Charlie Morton Set For Games 3 And 4

Houston Astros starting pitchers Dallas Keuchel and Charlie Morton have been confirmed for Games 3 and 4, respectively, against the Red Sox in the American League Championship Series. These games will take place in Houston on Tuesday and Wednesday. Keuchel allowed five earned runs on nine hits (one homer) in six innings in a no-decision […]

Niles Paul Injured Against Dallas

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Niles Paul (knee) left the game early in the first half in Week 6 against the Cowboys and is questionable to return. Paul didn't have a target before leaving the game early in the first half. He was in line for a lot more work with Austin Seferian-Jenkins out, so this […]

Cooper Kupp Carted Off With Knee Injury

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp (knee) was carted off the field in Week 6 against the Broncos after suffering an ugly left knee injury when he was tackled illegally (horse-collar tackle) out of bounds. It was a serious-looking injury, so we wouldn't expect Kupp to return to this game. It's a tough break […]

Seth Roberts Ruled Out With Concussion

Oakland Raiders wide receiver Seth Roberts (concussion) suffered a head injury in Week 6 in London against the Seahawks and was ruled out with a concussion in the second half. Roberts caught five of his six targets for 31 yards before leaving and was more involved in the passing game with Amari Cooper (head) leaving […]

Ryan Grant Out For Rest Of Week 6

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Ryan Grant (ankle) was injured in Week 6 against the Jets in the fourth quarter and will not return. Grant caught two of five targets for just 24 yards in the game before leaving. The Colts are one of the most injured teams in the league, so this just adds to […]

Mohamed Sanu Injured Sunday

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Mohamed Sanu (knee) left the game in the second half in Week 6 against the Buccaneers and is questionable to return. Sanu caught both of his targets for 46 yards and a touchdown, so all is not lost for his fantasy owners if he doesn't return in this game. Rookie Calvin […]

Rafael Devers Starting In Game 2 Of ALCS

Boston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers is starting over Eduardo Nunez at third base in Game 2 of the American League Championship Series against Astros starter Gerrit Cole on Saturday. Nunez has just two hits so far in the playoffs, so the Red Sox will change it up. Devers is hitless in three at-bats […]

Deonte Thompson, DeMarcus Lawrence Active In Week 6

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Deonte Thompson (hamstring) and defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence (shoulder) are both active for Week 6 against the Jaguars. Thompson and the Cowboys receivers just can't be trusted in a very tough matchup against an elite Jacksonville secondary. Lawrence may need offseason surgery to fix a torn labrum in his shoulder, but […]

Josh Allen Injures Elbow, Questionable To Return

Buffalo Bills rookie quarterback Josh Allen (elbow) injured his right elbow in the second half in Week 6 against the Texans and is questionable to return. Allen hadn't done much in this game, going 10-for-17 for just 84 yards, and he also ran four times for 20 yards. Nathan Peterman has entered the game as […]

Jalen Ramsey Active Against Cowboys

Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey (knee) is active in Week 6 against the Cowboys. Ramsey was always expected to play in this one. He's one of the best cover corners in the league and will make life even more difficult for an embarrassing Dallas receiving corps led by Cole Beasley. The Jags defense/special teams is […]

Robert Turbin Questionable To Return

Indianapolis Colts running back Robert Turbin (shoulder) left the game early in Week 6 against the Jets and is questionable to return. Turbin surprisingly was tied with Marlon Mack with four carries in the first half, but he had just 10 yards (2.5 yards per carry) and also lost a fumble. Hopefully fantasy owners didn't […]

Quincy Enunwa Injures Leg Against Colts

New York Jets wide receiver Quincy Enunwa (ankle) left the game early in Week 6 against the Colts and is questionable to return. Enunwa caught his only target for nine yards before suffering the injury. If he's unable to return, receivers Robby Anderson, Jermaine Kearse and Terrelle Pryor could be more involved. New York could […]

Amari Cooper Leaves London Game

Oakland Raiders wide receiver Amari Cooper (head) left the game early in Week 6 in London against the Seahawks after a helmet-to-helmet hit. The good news is he was able to jog off the field under his own power, but he will likely be evaluated for a concussion. Consider the frustrating wide receiver questionable to […]

Calvin Ridley Injured Sunday

Atlanta Falcons rookie wide receiver Calvin Ridley (ankle) suffered an injury in Week 6 against the Buccaneers and is questionable to return. Ridley was having a nice day with three catches on three targets for 47 yards, so it'll be a shame if he can't return in this excellent matchup. If he can't make it […]

Reds Interview Rocco Baldelli

The Cincinnati Reds interviewed Rays coach Rocco Baldelli for their managerial opening last week, according to sources. Baldelli is a candidate in Texas and Minnesota as well, and he is the 12th known candidate for the Reds job.

Raiders Open To Trading Amari Cooper, Karl Joseph

The Oakland Raiders have been in talks to trade former first-round wide receiver Amari Cooper and safety Karl Joseph. Cooper has been a disappointment for the Raiders and fantasy owners. He's been Jekyll and Hyde so far in 2018 -- he has just four catches combined in three games and has 18 catches combined with […]

Jason Peters Expected To Return This Year

Philadelphia Eagles left tackle Jason Peters (biceps), who tore his biceps on Thursday against the Giants, is expected to return this season following an MRI exam, according to sources. He could miss just a week or two. That's good news for quarterback Carson Wentz, as Peters is his blind-side protector. Halapoulivaati Vaitai would fill in […]
