Tevin Coleman Could Be A Trade Candidate
Atlanta Falcons running back Tevin Coleman could become a trade candidate if the team doesn't turn things around in the next week or so. Rookie Ito Smith has impressed in limited action so far. Linebacker Vic Beasley could also be a trade candidate, but his 2019 option of $12.810 million could be a road block.... Read More
Anthony Castonzo Expects To Debut In Week 6
Indianapolis Colts left tackle Anthony Castonzo (hamstring) continues to be cautious after having multiple setbacks with his injury, but he fully expects to make his season debut in Week 6 against the Jets.

Randall Cobb, Geronimo Allison Practice Thursday
Green Bay Packers wide receivers Randall Cobb (hamstring) and Geronimo Allison (concussion, hamstring) were both surprise participants in practice on Thursday and even took part in 11-on-11 drills.

Eric Berry, Justin Houston Not Practicing Thursday
Kansas City Chiefs safety Eric Berry (heel) and linebacker Justin Houston (hamstring) both missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Berry hasn't played yet this year and has no timetable for a return. Houston is one of the team's best pass rushers, so they could be in serious trouble without him on Sunday... Read More
Sean Lee Takes Part In Individual Drills
Dallas Cowboys linebacker Sean Lee (hamstring) took part in individual drills during the portion of practice open to the media on Thursday. It's his first work in practice since injuring his hamstring in Week 3 against the Seahawks. Lee is still probably on the wrong side of questionable for Week 6 against the Jaguars, but... Read More
Trumaine Johnson, Buster Skrine Out Thursday
New York Jets cornerbacks Trumaine Johnson (quadriceps) and Buster Skrine (concussion) both sat out of practice for the second straight day on Thursday and appear doubtful to play in Week 6 against the Colts.

Cameron Wake Still Sidelined
Miami Dolphins defensive end Cameron Wake (knee) remained out of practice on Thursday for the second straight day. Wake sat out last weekend and appears to be on track to missing his second straight game. That would be bad news for the team's pass rush as they look to slow down Bears quarterback Mitch Trubisky.
Tre'Davious White Practicing Thursday
Buffalo Bills top cornerback Tre'Davious White (ankle) has returned to practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. White is on track to play in Week 6 against the Texans, where he would be tasked with slowing down elite wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins.

With Los Angeles Chargers kicker Caleb Sturgis (quadriceps) dealing with a strained quadriceps, the team is signing free-agent kicker Mike Badgley, according to league sources.

Jaguars Sign Bo Scarbrough
The Jacksonville Jaguars signed free-agent running back Bo Scarbrough to their practice squad on Thursday and released fullback Dimitri Flowers in a corresponding move.

Isaiah Crowell Missing Practice Again
New York Jets running back Isaiah Crowell (ankle) missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday.

Corey Clement Expected To Lead Backfield On Thursday
Philadelphia Eagles running back Corey Clement is expected to lead the backfield on Thursday against the Giants with Jay Ajayi (knee) now out for the season.

Dalvin Cook In Line For Monstrous Week 6 If Healthy
Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (hamstring) will be a fantastic fantasy option if he manages to make his way into the lineup for Week 6. The Arizona Cardinals have been the worst team in the league against the run allowing an average of 142.8 rushing yards per game. Cook has certainly had a tough... Read More
Marcus Peters Says He's 100 Percent
Los Angeles Rams cornerback Marcus Peters (calf) suffered a calf injury in Week 3 but didn't miss any games, although he has been beat for big plays in Week 4 and Week 5.

T.J. Yeldon The Guy In Week 6
Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Doug Marrone said running back T.J. Yeldon will be the main running back in Week 6 against the Cowboys with Leonard Fournette (hamstring) missing another game.

Kyle Rudolph A Touchdown-Dependent TE In Week 6
Minnesota Vikings tight end Kyle Rudolph has had a consistent start to the season but has not turned in many exceptional fantasy performances. This trend should continue in Week 6 against the Arizona Cardinals who have given up the 14th fewest fantasy points to tight ends. Rudolph is averaging 45.8 yards per game and only... Read More
Aaron Rodgers, Randall Cobb, Geronimo Allison In Rehab Group
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (knee) and wide receivers Randall Cobb (hamstring) and Geronimo Allison (concussion, hamstring) are all working with the rehab group on Thursday.

Philadelphia Eagles right tackle Lane Johnson (ankle) was added to the injury report on Thursday morning with a high ankle sprain and is listed as questionable for Thursday night against the Giants.

Kirk Cousins A Top-10 QB Option In Week 6
Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins has been exceptional to start the 2018 season. He ranks second in the league with 1688 passing yards to go along with an 11/2 TD/INT ratio.

Stefon Diggs A Top-20 WR Option For Week 6
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Stefon Diggs has seen double-digit targets in his past four games and he is in line to have another big performance in Week 6.

Adam Thielen Seeking Sixth Straight 100-Yard Game
Minnesota Vikings wideout Adam Thielen has been unbelievable to start the 2018 season and Week 6 should be no different. While the Arizona Cardinals have given up the second-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers, Thielen should still be able to abuse the secondary out of the slot. He is the first player in NFL history... Read More

Defenses to Stream Against with Confidence
A football player is only as good as his matchup. For players on the fringes of fantasy rosters, that proves to be true more often than not.
