Sony Michel Inactive For Week 11

While he was activated from the IR this week, New England Patriots running back Sony Michel (quad) will not play on Sunday against the Houston Texans. That leaves Damien Harris as the lead back against a porous Texans run defense. Trusting any Patriots running back is a scary proposition, but he should provide low-end RB2 […]

Gardner Minshew II Not Expected To Be Active

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Gardner Minshew II (thumb) is not expected to be active for his team's Week 11 meeting with the Steelers. Jake Luton will start, with Mike Glennon backing him up. Luton's two starts have been fairly uneven, so there's no guarantee he remains the starter once Minshew is healthy, though Jacksonville might keep […]

Zack Martin Moving To Right Tackle

The Dallas Cowboys offensive line has long been a strength of the team, but injuries and the retirement of center Travis Frederick has really hurt them this year. In response, the team is moving their best active lineman, right guard Zack Martin, to right tackle this week as a way of getting rookie Terence Steele […]

Laremy Tunsil Likely To Miss Week 11

Houston Texans left tackle Laremy Tunsil (flu) is reportedly unlikely to play against the Patriots in Week 11. Considering he's the best lineman on this team, this would potentially be a sizable blow to the fantasy outlook for quarterback Deshaun Watson and running Duke Johnson Jr. We wouldn't take this news as a reason to […]

Serge Ibaka Signing With Clippers

Free agent big Serge Ibaka has agreed to a two-year, $19 million contract with the Los Angeles Clippers. Ostensibly the replacement for last year's Sixth Man of the Year Montrezl Harrell, who signed with the Lakers this week, Ibaka provides a solid upgrade at the four and five for the Clips. Likely to earn a […]

Jeff Teague Signing With Celtics

Free agent point guard Jeff Teague is signing a one-year deal with the Boston Celtics. Considering Teague almost exclusively played the one until his 25 games beside Trae Young in Atlanta last season, we can safely assume he's being brought in as a backup to Kemba Walker and not much else. That's not a role […]

Tristan Thompson Signing With Celtics

Free agent big man Tristan Thompson has agreed to a two-year, $19 million deal with the Boston Celtics, where he'll likely slide into the bench role that Enes Kanter held last season. Thompson is coming off of his worst shooting season since 2013-14, but he still connected on 51.2 percent of his shots and occasionally […]

Brad Wanamaker Signing With Warriors

Free agent guard Brad Wanamaker is signing a one-year, $2.25 million deal with the Golden State Warriors. Wanamaker has played in the NBA for just two years but is 31 years old, so he probably is what he is at this point, which is a capable backup guard. He averaged 19.3 minutes per game, with […]

Kris Dunn Signing With Hawks

Free agent point guard Kris Dunn is reportedly signing a two-year, $10 million deal with the Atlanta Hawks. Considering Atlanta also signed point guard Rajon Rondo, Atlanta probably sees Dunn as an off-ball option at the two. But with plenty of weapons on the floor for the Hawks, Dunn's unlikely to see the minutes or […]

Rajon Rondo Signing In Atlanta

Point guard Rajon Rondo and the Atlanta Hawks have agreed to a two-year, $15 million deal that brings the veteran to back up Trae Young. He'll be a reliable ball-handler for this Hawks team and he's started to remedy his lack of shooting in recent years, but it's hard to see Rondo having a role […]

Paul Millsap Staying With Nuggets

Power forward Paul Millsap is signing a one-year, $10 million deal to stay with the Denver Nuggets. Millsap reportedly received a lot of interest in free agency and was heavily rumored to join the Celtics. Millsap started 48 of his 51 games last season, averaging 11.6 points and 5.7 rebounds per game. He shot 43.5 […]

Carmelo Anthony Returning To Trail Blazer

The Portland Trail Blazers have agreed to a deal to bring back veteran forward Carmelo Anthony. Anthony started all 58 of his games for Portland last year, averaging 15.4 points and 6.3 rebounds per contest. The problem this upcoming season? Portland brought in Robert Covington and Derrick Jones Jr., complicating things at the forward spots. […]

Elfrid Payton Re-Signing With Knicks

Free agent point guard Elfrid Payton is returning to the Knicks on a one-year, $5 million deal. Payton averaged 10.4 points, 7.5 assists, and 5.1 rebounds per game and also added 1.6 steals. His struggles as a shooter can really hurt fantasy managers in some ways, but provided he beats out Dennis Smith Jr. and […]

Jae Crowder To Sign With Suns

The Phoenix Suns and free agent forward Jae Crowder have agreed to a three-year, $30 million contract. The Suns have suddenly decided to go all-in on making the playoffs this year, trading for Chris Paul and now bringing in someone who can provide a veteran presence as the starting four. If this signing signals that […]

Joe Mixon Going On IR

The Cincinnati Bengals are placing running back Joe Mixon (foot) on the Injured Reserve, which means he'll miss at least the next three games. Mixon's whole 2020 season could be in jeopardy at this point, especially with head coach Zac Taylor refusing to rule out that possibility. At least for the next three weeks, Giovani […]

Gordon Hayward Signing With Hornets

Free agent forward Gordon Hayward has agreed to a four-year, $120 million deal with the Charlotte Hornets. With Charlotte not having the cap space to make the deal outright, there's going to be some corresponding move here. Hayward faded a bit in Boston on a team full of offensive threats, but will be either the […]

Avery Bradley Signing With Heat

Free agent guard Avery Bradley has agreed to a two-year, $11.6 million deal with the Miami Heat. Bradley started 44 games for the Lakers last season, averaging 24.2 minutes per game and posting averages of 8.6 points, 2.3 rebounds, and 1.3 assists per game. Bradley's role with the Heat is unclear, as they just re-signed […]

Fred VanVleet Returning To Raptors

Toronto Raptors guard Fred Vanvleet was one of the biggest names in this year's free agent class, but it appears that he'll be returning to Toronto on a four-year, $85 million deal. VanVleet put up strong numbers for the Raptors last season, averaging 17.6 points, 6.6 assists, and 1.9 steals per game. He shot 39 […]

Bucks Signing Bobby Portis

The Milwaukee Bucks are reportedly signing center/power forward Bobby Portis to a two-year contract. Portis played 66 games for the Knicks last season, averaging 10.1 points and 5.1 rebounds per game while shooting 35.8 percent from three. He'll bring some needed toughness to this frontcourt. Portis will likely come off the bench like he did […]

Sony Michel Activated Off Injured Reserve

New England Patriots running back Sony Michel (quad) has been activated off of the Injured Reserve and looks on track to play Sunday against the Houston Texans. Houston allows the fourth-most fantasy points per game to opposing running backs and the last time we saw Michel he rushed for 117 yards, but Damien Harris appears […]

Keelan Cole Sr. Is Risky Week 11 Play

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Keelan Cole Sr. saw an increase in usage last week against the Packers, catching five passes for 47 yards and a touchdown while also returning a punt for a score. But considering Cole had just two total receptions in the two previous games, it might not be a good idea to […]

Jake Luton Not On Radar In Week 11

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie quarterback Jake Luton could theoretically get some garbage time numbers on Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers, but it's really hard to trust the first-year passer against a defense allowing the fifth-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks. Luton has had one good and one bad game in his two starts, including […]

D.J. Chark Jr. Should See Plenty Of Week 11 Work

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver D.J. Chark Jr. has seen 17 targets across the two games that he's played with Jake Luton at quarterback, though 12 of those came in the first contest. With the Steelers waiting on Sunday, Jacksonville will likely be forced to take to the air often, and while the results of that […]

James Robinson Has More Risk Than Usual In Week 11

Jacksonville Jaguars running back James Robinson has been one of the most consistent backs in football this year and is currently in the midst of a strong run of three games in which he's averaged 23.3 attempts for 109 yards and 0.7 touchdowns. His role has been bolstered by the Jags playing three close games […]

Brandon Aiyuk Placed On COVID List

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk has been placed on the team's COVID list. He'll need to test negative for the virus time days in a row to be cleared to return to the field. With San Fran on a bye this week, there's still plenty of time for Aiyuk to be back for […]

Joe Mixon Out For Week 11

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (foot) will miss another game, as he won't play on Sunday against the Washington Football Team. With no clear timetable for his return, fantasy managers should prepare to have at least a couple more weeks of Giovani Bernard helming this backfield. Bernard doesn't have the same ceiling as Mixon, […]

Saints Sign Trevor Siemian

The New Orleans Saints have signed quarterback Trevor Siemian. With Drew Brees (ribs) on the Injured Reserve, Siemian provides some depth behind Taysom Hill and Jameis Winston. The most plausible explanation for the move is that Siemian could serve as the No. 2 quarterback behind Winston should this week's attempt to make Hill into a […]

T.J. Hockenson Off Week 11 Injury Report

Detroit Lions tight end T.J. Hockenson (toe) has been removed from the team's injury report ahead of their Week 11 contest against the Carolina Panthers. Carolina has allowed four touchdowns to tight ends in the last five games, so you can feel confident in deploying Hockenson as your fantasy TE1 in this week's contest, even […]

Alec Burks Signing With Knicks

So far, the New York Knicks and their cap space haven't made a splashy free agency move. If that continues to be true, shooting guard Alec Burks's decision to sign there on Friday could be big for his own numbers and for potential fantasy managers. Burks split last season between Golden State and Philly. In […]

Garrett Temple To Sign With Bulls

Free agent shooting guard Garrett Temple has agreed to a one-year, $5 million deal to sign with the Chicago Bulls. A needed veteran presence on this team who can play multiple positions, Temple is unlikely to get the minutes needed to provide much in the way of fantasy value. He's more of a locker room […]
