Is Quentin Johnston Hurt or Healthy? Injury Update for Fantasy Football Wild Card Weekend (2025)

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston (thigh, illness) finally had his first monster game in Week 18, scoring 31.6 PPR fantasy points by catching 13 of his 14 targets for 186 yards. It was a highly unexpected game from the second-year pro, who's struggled for most of the year. Week 18 games can be […]

The 2024 regular season in the National Football League has drawn to a close, but one thing that hasn't and will never end is the perpetual carousel of player injuries. Although 18 teams are no longer playing football this year, the 14 that haven't been eliminated still have plenty of ailing members. Only 12 of […]

Time To Hang It Up: Five NFL Tight Ends (TEs) Who Should Retire After The Season

The tight-end position typically has players who can play later in their careers than other positions. You don't usually see many running backs, wide receivers, or defensive and offensive linemen over 31 years old have much success or even play at all in the NFL. There are some outliers, of course. But even for the […]

Will David Montgomery Play In The Postseason? Injury Update For Lions RB

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery (knee) suffered an MCL injury in Week 15 against the Buffalo Bills.

Who is the First Overall Pick for 2025 Fantasy Football Drafts?

The 2024 NFL regular season has come to a close. There have been plenty of surprises, but at the top of the food chain, there were only a few players who had enough talent to compete for the chance of being the No. 1 overall pick in fantasy football in 2025. While NFL players tend […]

What Are Fantasy Football Playoff Leagues? How To Play, Join and Draft A Playoff League Team

The 2024 NFL regular season is over. After Week 18, there won't be any way to play more fantasy football, and managers will be forced to sit down and watch normal playoff football with absolutely nothing on the line... right? Not really! There are actually ways to play fantasy football throughout the playoffs. And we're […]

Where is the Super Bowl This Year? Super Bowl LIX Date, Time, Location

The regular season is finally over. All the playoff teams are now set, and we only have one week before the postseason begins. It's never too early to start thinking about the Super Bowl, and while it may seem that the repeat champions from the 2022 and 2023 seasons will simply win it again, we […]

Quarterback Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Fantasy Football Playoffs - Week 18 (2024)

It's Week 18, finally. The quarterback position has been a roller coaster this season, with a lot of unexpected names having big seasons and others disappointing massively. It's not always easy to choose who to start and sit at this position, and many fantasy managers probably have multiple QBs they're considering for their starting lineups. […]

Who Should I Start for Fantasy Football Week 18? Blake Corum, Tyrone Tracy Jr., Brian Robinson Jr.

Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum, New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr., and Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. all have plenty to play for in Week 18, and have the opportunity to make a nice impact for their teams and rack up stats for your fantasy football rosters. None of […]

Who Should I Start for Fantasy Football Week 18? Jauan Jennings, Courtland Sutton, Michael Pittman Jr.

The wide receiver position has an advantage over the running back position in PPR scoring formats, typically. Receivers' main job of catching the football leads to them scoring more points per touch, and those WRs that consistently get high volume can produce great results with a strong floor. Not every WR is like this, though, […]

Who Should I Start for Fantasy Football Week 18? D'Onta Foreman, Mark Andrews, Rashod Bateman

The Cleveland Browns will take on the Baltimore Ravens in the other battle of bitter AFC North rivals. This one probably won't be as hotly contested as the matchup between the Cincinnati Bengals and Pittsburgh Steelers, though. The Ravens are headed to the playoffs, while the Browns suffered through another miserable losing season. Maybe they […]

Who Should I Start for Fantasy Football Week 18? Ray Davis, Isaac Guerendo, J.K. Dobbins

It isn't always easy finding the best player to put in your FLEX spots in fantasy football. While your other slots typically have at least some players who are sure-fire starters every week, and you don't have to question whether to put them on the bench, this isn't the case for everyone on your rosters, […]

Who Should I Start for Fantasy Football Week 18? Russell Wilson, Pat Freiermuth, Mike Gesicki

The Pittsburgh Steelers will take on the Cincinnati Bengals for each of their final games of the 2024 regular season. This game will have playoff implications -- at the very least, it will change the Steelers' final seed in the playoffs, as they could end up as high as the No. 3 and as low […]

Who Should I Start for Fantasy Football Week 18? Najee Harris, Jaylen Warren, Khalil Herbert

Many fantasy football managers are critical of leagues that stretch their championships into Week 18. With so many meaningless games, teams intentionally resting their starters, and defenses on tanking teams simply giving up, the last week of the regular season can be highly unpredictable. Of course, the more variables there are in play, there more […]

Are C.J. Stroud, Joe Mixon, Nico Collins Starting and Playing This Week? Week 18 Fantasy Football Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks

Week 18 is here, and while many fantasy football leagues have concluded with their championship matchups in Week 17, there are still plenty that have one game left to play. And with this week being the game that many NFL teams look at resting their starters if they've clinched playoff berths, this presents challenges for […]

Are Matthew Stafford, Cooper Kupp, Puka Nacua Starting and Playing This Week? Week 18 Fantasy Football Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks

The last week of the regular season can be extremely awkward for fantasy football managers. Teams that have locked up playoff spots are incentivized to rest their starters if the game they're playing is meaningless -- i.e. if the outcome doesn't change playoff seeding. A quick look at the current NFL playoff picture shows us […]

Time To Hang It Up: Five NFL QBs Who Should Retire After The Season

We're almost at the end of the 2024 NFL season. While there are plenty of veteran quarterbacks who have made the playoffs and continue to have productive NFL careers, Father Time comes for everyone. And there are plenty of signal-callers who should call it quits after the 2024 season. Even some of the best to […]

Fantasy Football Injury Reports For Week 18 (Thursday Updates): James Conner, Jalen Hurts, Josh Jacobs, Bucky Irving, Brock Purdy, George Kittle, Deebo Samuel Sr., Chase Brown, A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, Malik Nabers, Ladd McConkey, more

The final week of the NFL regular season has arrived. As time goes on, injury reports get longer and longer (in general) due to the nature of the game and the piling on of more tackles, hits, and falls to the ground from players at every position. At least many fantasy football managers won't have […]

Is Travis Kelce Starting and Playing This Week? Week 18 Fantasy Football Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks

The Kansas City Chiefs have secured the No. 1 seed in the AFC this season, and are headed to the playoffs with a first-round bye and home-field advantage for the rest of their games (except the Super Bowl, of course). Fantasy football managers who roster some of their key players are probably wondering if they're […]

Is Kareem Hunt Starting and Playing This Week? Week 18 Fantasy Football Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt was a fantastic waiver wire pickup when he took over the starting RB job for his team after the injury to lead RB Isiah Pacheco (ribs), who fractured his fibula after Week 2. However, injuries sometimes run their course before the season is over. Hunt has been relegated […]

Is James Cook Starting and Playing This Week? Week 18 Fantasy Football Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks

Buffalo Bills running back James Cook is now the RB9 overall in typical PPR scoring formats. He's been a boom-or-bust player with an admittedly decent floor but massive ceiling, boosted by his ridiculous 15 rushing touchdowns, two receiving scores, and 1,239 yards from scrimmage this season.  He's on a great offense with a great offensive […]

When Is Chris Olave Coming Back - Fantasy Football Injury Return Update for Week 18 (2024)

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave (concussion) is still dealing with the after math of the second concussion he suffered in 2024. He was leveled by a Carolina Panthers defender with a direct blow to the helmet and knocked out back in Week 9.  He's been on injured reserve since then, and the team […]

When Is Jalen Hurts Coming Back - Fantasy Football Injury Return Update for Week 18 (2024)

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (concussion, finger) suffered a concussion in Week 16 after playing just 16% of his team's offensive snaps. He was placed in the league's concussion protocol, and wasn't able to suit up in Week 17. He's also dealing with a finger injury he picked up previously, though that's not reportedly serious. […]

When Is Jaylen Waddle Coming Back - Fantasy Football Injury Return Update for Week 18 (2024)

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (knee) suffered a knee injury in Week 15 after having played 14 straight games without missing significant game time due to injury issues this season. He was pulled from that game and didn't return.  Since then, he's missed both Week 16 and Week 17, and with the end of […]

When Is Tony Pollard Coming Back - Fantasy Football Injury Return Update for Week 18 (2024)

Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard (ankle, illness) wasn't able to play in Week 17 due to an ankle injury and some undisclosed illness. It wasn't initially reported that he would miss the game due to his ankle issue, but whatever he got sick with seemed to be a difference maker. Pollard has racked up […]

Is Cedric Tillman Out For the Season? Week 18 Fantasy Football Injury Update

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Cedric Tillman (concussion) has now missed five games due to a concussion he suffered in Week 12. This is extremely concerning, as typically players recover from traumatic brain injuries much more quickly. His continued absence means he's still in concussion protocol, and with the end of the season drawing near, it's […]

Is Tony Pollard Out For the Season? Week 18 Fantasy Football Injury Update

Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard (ankle/illness) finally missed a game in 2024 after plenty of missed practices and "Questionable" designations over the past few months. Since Tennessee has long been eliminated from playoff contention, it's now worth wondering if the former Dallas Cowboy will play another down in 2024. He's primarily dealt with ankle […]

Is Cade Otton Out For the Season? Week 18 Fantasy Football Injury Update

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton (knee) has now missed both Week 16 and Week 17 with a knee injury. There's only one more game of the regular season, so for fantasy football purposes, if he misses that one, he's at least "out for the fantasy season". But the Bucs are likely headed to […]

Is Chris Olave Out For the Season? Week 18 Fantasy Football Injury Update

We are once again providing another update on New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave (concussion), who hasn't played in a game since suffering a concussion in Week 9 of 2024.
