Logan Thomas - Week 13 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks
Joshua Palmer Is An Exciting Week 2 Option
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Joshua Palmer was a non-factor in Week 1, but will likely operate as the team's clear WR2 in a Week 2 clash with the Kansas City Chiefs. With Keenan Allen (hamstring) ruled out, Palmer's opportunity to validate the preseason hype he received has arrived. In one contest without Allen last... Read More
Mike Williams Has Big Opportunity In Week 2
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams only garnered two receptions on four targets in Week 1 but should be primed for a much greater opportunity in Week 2 with Keenan Allen (hamstring) sidelined. The Chargers' matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs is currently projected to be the highest-scoring game of the week. It's hard... Read More
Austin Ekeler Will Look To Bounce Back In Week 2
Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler had an underwhelming Week 1 performance and will look to get back on track against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 2.

Justin Herbert - Week 2 Outlook For Fantasy Football
Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert will take the field for the second time in five days for a Week 2 divisional showdown with the Kansas City Chiefs.

Van Jefferson's Status Hasn't Changed Much
Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said wide receiver Van Jefferson's (knee) status "is similar to what it has been." Jefferson remains day-to-day, but it sounds like he hasn't made any progress in his rehab from offseason knee surgery. Barring a dramatic change in his status later this week, Jefferson is all but certain... Read More
Mac Jones Practices In Full Wednesday
New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones (back) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice despite dealing with back spasms after the Week 1 season-opening loss to the Miami Dolphins. It's a good sign that he'll be available to start in Week 2 this Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Barring a setback, the 24-year-old second-year signal-caller... Read More
Jameis Winston On The Week 2 Injury Report
New Orleans Saints quarterback Jameis Winston (back) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday with a back injury, which is why he went into the injury tent in the Week 1 win over the Atlanta Falcons.

J.K. Dobbins Practices In Full
Baltimore Ravens running back J.K. Dobbins (knee) took a big step forward on Wednesday by being a full participant in practice.

D'Andre Swift Not Worried About His Injury
Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift (ankle) said he rolled his ankle in the second quarter of the Week 1 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, but he stayed in the game and finished with 15 carries for a career-high 144 yards, which was the third-highest rushing total in the league in the first week. The... Read More

Arizona Cardinals tight end Zach Ertz (calf) was sidelined for the team's practice on Wednesday. Ertz was questionable heading into Week 1 but did suit up and catch a touchdown.

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (groin) was sidelined in practice on Wednesday after missing Week 1 with a groin injury.

Fantasy managers should closely monitor practice reports on Thursday and Friday, as... Read More
Julio Jones, Russell Gage Miss Practice Wednesday
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receivers Julio Jones (knee) and Russell Gage (hamstring) both missed practice on Wednesday, as did Chris Godwin (hamstring). We'll have to see how much Jones and Gage are able to do the rest of the week before determining their status for Week 2 against the New Orleans Saints. Godwin is expected... Read More
Leonard Fournette Dealing With Hamstring Injury
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) was listed as being a limited participant in practice on Wednesday.

Read More
Shaquille Leonard Back To Full Practice
Indianapolis Colts linebacker Shaquille Leonard (back) returned to a full practice on Wednesday, while cornerback Kenny Moore II (hip) was listed as limited.

Read More
Michael Pittman Jr. On The Week 2 Injury Report
Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. (quadriceps) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday. Pittman's injury isn't viewed as too serious, as he was able to play 98% of the offensive snaps in the Week 1 tie with the Houston Texans. He caught nine of his 13 targets for 121 yards and... Read More
D'Andre Swift Misses Practice With Ankle Injury
Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday due to an ankle injury. It remains to be seen if this is a serious enough injury to keep Swift from playing in Week 2 against the Washington Commanders. If you have Swift rostered, it's time to immediately run to the waiver wire... Read More
Najee Harris Gets In Limited Practice
Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris (foot) was limited in practice on Wednesday after suffering a foot injury in the Week 1 overtime win over the Cincinnati Bengals. Harris said "it's good" and doesn't seem to be worried at all about missing Week 2 against the New England Patriots. However, head coach Mike Tomlin said... Read More
Shane McClanahan To Return Thursday
The Tampa Bay Rays are set to reinstate left-hander Shane McClanahan (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list to have him start on Thursday against the Toronto Blue Jays.

Michael Gallup Unlikely To Play In Week 2
In all likelihood, Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup (knee) will need at least another week before he makes his 2022 debut.

J.K. Dobbins Looks Good In Practice
The Athletic's Jeff Zrebiec thought Baltimore Ravens running back J.K. Dobbins (knee) looked really good in the early portion of practice open to the media on Wednesday, and he was moving around and cutting well. Dobbins, who missed all of 2021 due to a torn ACL, was inactive in the Week 1 win against the... Read More
J.C. Jackson Questionable For Week 2 Matchup
Los Angeles cornerback J.C. Jackson (ankle) is questionable for Thursday night's game against the divisional-rival Kansas City Chiefs.

The veteran receiver had 10 receptions for 141 yards... Read More

Allen Lazard Returns To Practice
Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur told reporters that wide receiver Allen Lazard (ankle) would return to practice on Wednesday. The veteran receiver missed practice all of last week and did not suit up in Sunday's 23-7 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. The return of Lazard couldn't have come at a better time for... Read More
Justin Verlander On Track To Start Friday
The tentative plan is for Houston Astros right-hander Justin Verlander (calf) to return to the starting rotation on Friday against the Oakland Athletics, but manager Dusty Baker said it's not finalized yet.
