Jamison Crowder Uncertain for Week 6
Washington Redskins wide receiver Jamison Crowder (ankle) continues to heal after banging up his ankle in the Week 5 game against the New Orleans Saints. In the locker room on Wednesday, there was a medical scooter next to his locker and that is typically used to avoid walking on one foot. That's not a tremendous... Read More
Chris Thompson Listed As Limited Participant
Washington Redskins running back Chris Thompson (ribs) was estimated to be a limited participant in practice Wednesday by head coach Jay Gruden. The team had just a walk-through, so we'll get a better idea of Thompson's status Thursday into Friday. Thompson suffered an injury to his ribs in the Week 5 game on Monday in... Read More
Adrian Peterson Dealing With Shoulder Sprain
Washington Redskins running back Adrian Peterson (shoulder) is recovering from a sprained shoulder, a person with knowledge of the injury said Wednesday. While head coach Jay Gruden said the veteran is day to day, it remains uncertain if Peterson will need to miss any playing time. The team had a walk-through practice on Wednesday, but... Read More
Greg Zuerlein Out In Week 6
Los Angeles Rams kicker Greg Zuerlein (groin) has been recovering from his injury since after Week 1. Fill-in kicker Cairo Santos will be starting in his place, and he should be a top tier kicker for this week. Once Zuerlein returns next week, he will take that role among the top kickers each week. Head... Read More
Marlon Mack Could Return In Week 6
Indianapolis Colts running back Marlon Mack (hamstring) has struggled with injuries this season. As of Wednesday, Mack started with a full practice load for the week. While this is no guarantee that he plays in Week 6 against the New York Jets, it does give the team hope that he will be active. Unfortunately for... Read More
Nyheim Hines' Value Tied To Marlon Mack In Week 6
In PPR formats, Indianapolis Colts rookie running back Nyheim Hines has flex and RB2 potential this weekend against the New York Jets. However, his value this week is entirely tied veteran Marlon Mack's (hamstring) status for this weeks game. If Mack plays, Hines can't be trusted due to the impact Mack has on his workload.... Read More
Demaryius Thomas A Trade Candidate
If the Denver Broncos season continues to spiral downward, wide receiver Demaryius Thomas could be a trade candidate before the Oct. 30 deadline. Thomas is scheduled to make $14 million in 2019, but a contending team desperate for a pass catcher could be willing to take that on. The Tennessee Titans or Dallas Cowboys could... Read More
Eric Ebron Will Shoulder Heavy Receiving Workload in Week 6
Indianapolis Colts tight end Eric Ebron is coming off a career game against the New England Patriots where he eclipsed the 100-yard receiving mark and caught two touchdowns, making fantasy owners excited for his role in the offense. When the Colts take on the New York Jets in Week 6, Ebron should continue to build... Read More
Ryan Grant, Chester Rodgers Both Solid Streamers Against Jets
The Indianapolis Colts offensive identity over the last two weeks has been high-volume throwing, meaning there should be plenty of receptions to go around for the duo of wide receivers Ryan Grant and Chester Rogers in Week 6 against the New York Jets. With T.Y. Hilton unlikely to play, both wideouts should be WR3 options... Read More
Despite Lack of Weapons, Start Andrew Luck in Week 6
Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck is the first quarterback in NFL history to throw 59 times or more in back-to-back games, and fantasy owners should expect more of the same volume when the team takes on the New York Jets in Week 6. Although it looks unlikely that wide receiver T.Y. Hilton and tight end... Read More
Russell Wilson, Doug Baldwin, David Moore Practice In Full
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson (hamstring) and wide receivers Doug Baldwin (knee) and David Moore (rib) all practiced in full on Wednesday. They will all play in Week 6 against the Raiders in a solid matchup. However, Seattle has passed the ball fewer than any team in the NFL in the last three weeks, which... Read More
Nick Vannett Misses Practice Wednesday
Seattle Seahawks tight end Nick Vannett (back) did not practice on Wednesday. This is a new injury for Vannett and one that could cause him to sit out in Week 6 against the Raiders. He had three catches on four targets for 43 yards in Week 5 and should remain as the main pass-catching tight... Read More
Marshawn Lynch Limited Ahead Of Week 6
Oakland Raiders running back Marshawn Lynch (hip) was limited in practice on Wednesday. It always seems to be something for Lynch, but he should have no issues suiting up in Week 6 against the Seahawks. After opening up the year with touchdowns in the first three games, he has now gone two games in a... Read More
T.J. Watt Emerging As IDP Beast
Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker T.J. Watt, the younger brother of Texans All-Pro pass rusher J.J. Watt, had three sacks in Week 5 against the Falcons and continues to impress in his second season. The younger Watt is now tied with Bengals defensive tackle Geno Watkins for the NFL lead with six sacks on the year. He... Read More
Devonta Freeman's Week 6 Status In Doubt
Updating a previous report, Atlanta Falcons running back Devonta Freeman (foot) is dealing with a bone contusion, according to a source. He missed practice on Wednesday and his status for Week 6 against the Buccaneers is in doubt. The good news is that he was able to do some work off to the side, but... Read More
Sammy Watkins, Chris Conley Practice In Full
Kansas City Chiefs wide receivers Sammy Watkins (hamstring) and Chris Conley (toe) both practiced in full on Wednesday, alongside linebacker Dee Ford (groin, hand). Watkins has been pretty heavily involved, securing at least seven targets in three of his last four games, with the outlier being the game in which he was injured against Denver.... Read More
Eric Berry, Justin Houston Sit Out Wednesday
Kansas City Chiefs safety Eric Berry (heel) and linebacker Justin Houston (hamstring) did not practice on Wednesday. Berry has yet to practice or play in the regular season, and at this point you have to wonder if he'll ever make it back this year. Houston is looking at a multi-week absence. It all adds up...

Rob Gronkowski, Sony Michel, Chris Hogan, Josh Gordon Limited
New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski (ankle), rookie running back Sony Michel (knee) and wide receivers Chris Hogan (thigh) and Josh Gordon (hamstring) were all limited in practice on Wednesday. All four should be fine to suit up on Sunday night in a showdown against the Chiefs. Against a KC pass defense that has... Read More
Anthony Miller Practices In Full
Chicago Bears rookie wide receiver Anthony Miller (shoulder) was a full participant in practice on Wednesday. Miller has been able to rest up the last several weeks and looks ready to return for the first time since dislocating his shoulder on Sept. 23. The talented rookie has a touchdown in three games but only eight... Read More
Jamison Crowder, Paul Richardson Absent Wednesday
The Washington Redskins only held a walkthrough practice on Wednesday, but head coach Jay Gruden said wide receivers Jamison Crowder (ankle) and Paul Richardson (knee) wouldn't have worked out had it been a full-on practice. It's a concern for an offense that looked pretty bad in a good matchup against the Saints secondary on Monday... Read More
Courtland Sutton Limited In Practice
Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Courtland Sutton (ankle) was limited in practice on Wednesday but appeared to be moving around well in the period open to the media. Sutton doesn't look to be in any danger of sitting out in Week 6 against the Rams. Game script could favor the passing game, but Sutton isn't... Read More
Larry Fitzgerald, Jermaine Gresham Miss Practice
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald (back, hamstring) and tight end Jermaine Gresham (Achilles) did not practice on Wednesday. Both veterans are likely being rested and should be expected to suit up in Week 6 against the Vikings. Fitzgerald has seen his fantasy value drop drastically after a seven-catch season opener. He doesn't have more... Read More
Dalvin Cook Puts In Limited Practice
Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (hamstring) was limited in practice on Wednesday. Cook has been a bust so far this year for fantasy owners with 36 carries for 98 scoreless yards (2.7 yards per carry) in parts of just three games. It's looking like he has a shot to return after missing Week 5,... Read More
Mohamed Sanu Limited In Practice Wednesday
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Mohamed Sanu (hip) was limited in practice on Wednesday. His injury didn't keep him out last week and shouldn't in Week 6 against the Buccaneers in what is an excellent matchup. Don't look now, but Sanu has now caught 10 passes on 16 targets for 184 yards and a touchdown the... Read More
Devonta Freeman Doesn't Practice Wednesday
Atlanta Falcons running back Devonta Freeman (foot) did not practice on Wednesday. He's no longer listed with his knee injury, but Freeman hasn't been able to stay healthy this year. Freeman fell flat in his return last week, running just eight times for 32 yards (4.0 yards per carry). It's unclear if his new injury... Read More
Brandin Cooks, Cooper Kupp Won't Practice Wednesday
Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said wide receivers Brandon Cooks (concussion) and Cooper Kupp (concussion) will not practice on Wednesday but took part in the team's walkthrough. Both players are progressing well in the league's concussion protocol. It's a good sign that both players will be cleared in time to face the Broncos... Read More
Deshaun Watson, DeAndre Hopkins, Lamar Miller Limited
Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson (chest), wide receivers DeAndre Hopkins (foot), Will Fuller (hamstring) and rookie Keke Coutee (hamstring), running back Lamar Miller (chest) and tight end Ryan Griffin (toe) were all limited in practice Wednesday. Watson and Miller say they will both for sure play against the Bills this weekend. While Watson took a... Read More
Jadeveon Clowney Sits Out Wednesday
Houston Texans defensive end Jadeveon Clowney (illness) did not practice on Wednesday. Clowney should be fine to suit up in an excellent matchup against a poor Bills offensive line that has allowed the most sacks in the NFL through five weeks. Clowney has recorded 12 tackles and 2.5 sacks through four games this year. Start... Read More
Marlon Mack, Anthony Castonzo Practice In Full
Indianapolis Colts running back Marlon Mack (hamstring) and left tackle Anthony Castonzo (hamstring) both practiced in full on Wednesday.
