Baker Mayfield's Week 7 Status Uncertain

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield (shoulder) will get a second opinion on his shoulder injury that he aggravated on Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals. His injury is not feared to be season-ending, nor will it require surgery right away. His status for Thursday night against the Denver Broncos will depend on the results of MRI […]

Lamar Miller Signs With Saints Practice Squad

The New Orleans Saints have signed running back Lamar Miller to their practice squad, according to his agent Drew Rosenhaus. Miller spent training camp with the Washington Football Team and had a solid preseason, so the Saints get some much-needed running back depth with Tony Jones Jr. being on IR. If Miller is activated to […]

Caleb Farley Suffers Torn ACL

Tennessee Titans cornerback Caleb Farley (knee) suffered a torn ACL on Monday night, which will end his rookie season. The MRI confirmed an isolated ACL tear with little damage to the meniscus. The 2021 first-round pick had four solo tackles and one pass deflection in his limited time this season, so an already weak pass […]

Dawson Knox Breaks Bone In Hand

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox (hand) suffered a broken bone in his hand on Monday night, but the hope is that he won't miss significant time with the team's Week 7 bye ahead. Knox was able to throw a 2-point conversion to Josh Allen after suffering the injury and had a rushing touchdown called […]

David Bakhtiari Returning To Practice

Green Bay Packers left tackle David Bakhtiari (knee) will begin practicing this week, which opens his 21-day period to return to action from the Injured Reserve, according to head coach Matt LaFleur. Bakhtiari hasn't played since Week 17 last season, so it will be a big-time boost for quarterback Aaron Rodgers and the offense to have […]

Ronald Jones II Drawing Trade Interest

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II has been drawing trade interest around the league as injuries start to pile up at the position, according to Tom Pelissero. Jones has seen his role in the offense diminish this year as Leonard Fournette has been a true workhorse, most recently handling 28 touches in Week […]

Parris Campbell Dealing With "Significant Injury"

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Parris Campbell (foot) suffered a significant injury in Week 6 and is going to miss some time, according to head coach Frank Reich. There is no timeline set yet, but it wouldn't be a surprise if Campbell is placed on IR which would knock him out for at least three games. […]

Patrick Peterson Heading To Injured Reserve

Minnesota Vikings cornerback Patrick Peterson (hamstring) will be placed on injured reserve after exiting Week 6 early with what was described as "cramps." Peterson will be held out for at least three games, so Minnesota's pass defense takes a bit of a hit without their No. 1 cornerback. Mackensie Alexander and Bashaud Breeland will be […]

Michael Thomas Still Not Ready To Return

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas (ankle) is still believed to be "a couple of weeks" away from returning, according to Ian Rapoport. Thomas is now eligible to be activated off the Physically Unable to Perform list, but he is unlikely to be activated until Week 9. Upon his return to the lineup, whenever […]

Kareem Hunt Likely Headed To Injured Reserve

Cleveland Browns running back Kareem Hunt (calf) will be sidelined several weeks and is likely headed for injured reserve, according to Ian Rapoport. The rough estimate for his absence is four-to-six weeks, so the Browns will be without one of their top offensive players for a significant time period. Nick Chubb (calf) could miss another […]

Mychal Kendricks Signing With 49ers

The San Francisco 49ers are signing veteran linebacker Mychal Kendricks, pending a physical, according to Ian Rapoport. Kendricks spent training camp with the team but was released because of an injury. Now that he is back to full health, he should make an impact on their already stingy defensive unit. The 31-year-old most recently played […]

Damien Williams Remains On COVID-19 List

Chicago Bears running back Damien Williams will remain on the COVID-19 list, according to head coach Matt Nagy. In his absence, rookie running back Khalil Herbert was very impressive as he totaled 112 yards from scrimmage along with a touchdown. If Williams is unable to return in Week 7, Herbert would once again be in […]

Nick Chubb, Kareem Hunt Unlikely To Play Thursday

Cleveland Browns running backs Nick Chubb (calf) and Kareem Hunt (calf) are both unlikely to play on Thursday night against the Denver Broncos. Considering the fact they are on a short week, it is no surprise the best running back duo in the league are being handled with caution, as the Browns will need them […]

Washington Defense Allows 31 Points

The Washington Football Team defense was once again not able to have an effective day defending the pass. They gave up 397 passing yards while giving up another 109 yards on the ground. Washington forced Patrick Mahomes to throw two interceptions, but it still wasn't enough to take down the former league MVP. Moving forward, […]

Dustin Hopkins Makes Two Field Goals

Washington Football Team kicker Dustin Hopkins made two of three field-goal attempts and his only extra-point attempt in Sunday's 31-13 loss against the Kansas City Chiefs. As of now, Hopkins has the look of a reliable streaming option if fantasy managers need to fill in for any upcoming bye weeks. In the future, he should […]

J.D. McKissic Catches Eight Passes

Washington Football Team running back J.D. McKissic led the team in receptions and receiving yards with eight catches for 65 yards in Sunday's 31-13 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. He added 45 yards on the ground on just eight carries, so he was extremely efficient out of the backfield against a weak Kansas City […]

Ricky Seals-Jones Catches Touchdown In Week 6

Washington Football Team tight end Ricky Seals-Jones caught four passes for 58 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-13 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. Seals-Jones has filled in nicely for Logan Thomas (hamstring) as he has been one of the top targets for quarterback Taylor Heinicke. Moving forward, the 26-year-old can be started with […]

Terry McLaurin Finishes With 28 Receiving Yards

Washington Football Team wide receiver Terry McLaurin had a disastrous fantasy performance after finishing with just four catches for 28 yards on eight targets. McLaurin was banged up heading into this game with a hamstring injury, so that could have been a factor in his poor play. Fantasy managers shouldn't worry too much, as the […]

Antonio Gibson Busts In Week 6

Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson had a rough outing against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 6, as he finished with just 10 carries for 44 yards and a fumble in the 31-13 loss. It was a horrible game script for the 23-year-old, as J.D. McKissic out-touched him 16-12 in this one. Moving […]

Taylor Heinicke Struggles In Week 6

Washington Football Team quarterback Taylor Heinicke was fairly mediocre in Sunday's 31-13 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, as he completed 24-of-39 passes for just 182 yards and one touchdown. The dual-threat didn't rely on his scrambling ability at all in this game, as he didn't record a single rushing attempt. He was set up […]

Week 6 Busts? Players Who May Disappoint

Welcome back RotoBallers! As we head into Week 6 of the NFL season, we are approaching the time where getting off to a slow start can cross the line and get into "I may be digging too deep of a hole to climb out of " territory. It's more critical than ever to make the […]

Kirk Cousins Start or Sit? Week 6 Fantasy Football

Cousins is on the road against the Carolina Panthers defense that has given up the fewest passing yards per game (161.6) and the third-fewest yards per attempt (6.3) When considering the run-heavy playbook of the Minnesota offense, there could simply not be enough volume in the passing game to feel confident with Cousins in your […]

Darrel Williams Start or Sit? Week 6 Fantasy Football

Williams was the other popular pickup on the waiver wire this week, but he could be in for a disappointing game in Week 6. The Chiefs take on the Washington Football Team who are one of the worst defenses against the pass through the first five games of the season, as they have given up […]

Josh Jacobs - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Jacobs has been pretty mediocre to start the season, and that may be putting it lightly. In the three games he has been active, he has not surpassed 50 rushing yards, nor has he been particularly efficient. The only appealing factor of his game has been his usage near the goal line, as he has […]

Adam Thielen - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Thielen has been very disappointing to start the season, and that could easily continue into Week 6 against the Panthers. As mentioned above, Cousins is likely in for a dud performance as well, so there will likely be a trickle-down effect into one, if not both Vikings’ receivers. Thielen seems like the obvious choice if […]

David Njoku - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Njoku is in for an extremely tough matchup with the Arizona Cardinals defense, which has allowed the second-fewest fantasy points per game to tight ends. In an extremely thin position, fantasy managers could go out and start chasing points after his explosion in Week 5 against the Chargers. He caught all seven of his targets […]

Amari Cooper Start or Sit? Week 6 Fantasy Football

Cooper once again finds himself on the potential bust list as the Cowboys travel to Gillette Stadium to take on the New England Patriots. After going nuclear in the season opener, he has caught three passes in four consecutive games since then. He has not surpassed 70 receiving yards since Week 1 and has been […]

Mike Williams Held Out Friday

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams (knee) recorded his third consecutive DNP on Friday. His status is up in the air for Sunday, but his availability doesn't seem likely considering he hasn't practiced this week. If he is unable to play, Keenan Allen gets a slight increase in value as he would likely see […]

T.J. Hockenson Questionable In Week 6

Detroit Lions tight end T.J. Hockenson (knee) is listed as questionable for Week 6 against the Cincinnati Bengals. Hockenson has been dealing with this issue for a couple of weeks now, so it seems like something he will continue to be able to play through. Due to the thin nature of the position, no matter […]

D'Andre Swift Questionable In Week 6

Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift (groin) is listed as questionable for Week 6 against the Cincinnati Bengals, which has become a familiar weekly occurrence for the sophomore. He has been dealing with this nagging groin issue for most of the season but it doesn't seem like something that should hold him out of action. […]
