Rob Gronkowski Inactive In Week 10
New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowksi (ankle, back) will not play in Week 10 against the Tennessee Titans. With Gronkowksi out, expect to see the Patriots use wide receivers Josh Gordon and Julian Edelman and running back James White more in the passing game. All three should see a slight fantasy bump.
Justin Carter 6 years agoChris Carson Not Expected To Play Week 10
Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson (groin) is a game-time decision for Seattle's Week 10 meeting with the Rams, but the expectation is that Carson will not play. Mike Davis will lead the backfield with Carson out and with how much the Seahawks are running the ball this year, Davis is a solid flex option […]

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II (hamstring) will miss Sunday's meeting against the Washington Redskins. The rookie spent the early part of the year as a healthy inactive and now is dealing with this hamstring issue, which has made his rookie season into a tough one for Tampa Bay. Expect Peyton Barber to […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoJosh Allen Expected To Return After Bye Week
Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen (elbow) will miss Week 10's meeting with the Jets, but is expected to return in Week 12 following the team's bye week. While the rookie has struggled at times, he's been the Bills best quarterback, and the only one worth fantasy consideration in deeper or two-quarterback leagues. Matt Barkley will […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoKhalil Mack Should Play Against Lions
Chicago Bears defensive lineman Khalil Mack (ankle) should return in Week 10 after missing the past two games. Mack's presence on the court puts a hurting on the fantasy chances of the Detroit Lions, especially when Matthew Stafford was sacked 10 times in Week 9. Expect the Bears to get after Stafford early and to […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoKerryon Johnson Expected To Play Against Bears
Detroit Lions running back Kerryon Johnson (ankle) is expected to play on Sunday against the Bears. The Bears boast a strong defense and Johnson is still sharing backfield touches with LeGarrette Blount, but Johnson can be a solid flex option barring any pre-game setbacks.
Justin Carter 6 years agoSaints Could Bring Dez Bryant Back In 2019
The New Orleans Saints could bring wide receiver Dez Bryant (Achilles) back in 2019, according to NFL.com's Ian Rapoport. With a recovery window between six and eight months, Bryant won't be healthy by the time free agency rolls around, but the Saints liked what they saw in his try out and would be willing to […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoMatt Barkley Starting For Bills
Buffalo Bills quarterback Matt Barkley will start in Week 10 against the Jets, Barkley's first NFL start since January 2017 when he started a game for the Chicago Bears. He'll face a tough Jets defense on Sunday, but Barkley can't be any worse than Nathan Peterman has been for the Bills. While he's not a […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoSteelers Optimistic James Conner Will Return In Week 11
With it looking more and more likely that Le'Veon Bell won't report to the team, the Steelers will need running back James Conner this year to keep up their playoff hopes. Conner, who is currently in concussion protocol after Thursday's win over the Panthers, could miss Week 11's meeting with the Jaguars, but the team […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoDarren Sproles Expected To Miss Multiple Weeks
Philadelphia Eagles running back Darren Sproles (hamstring) was hoping to return in Week 10, but after suffering a setback in practice, the team expects him to miss another three or four weeks. That leaves the Eagles backfield in the hands of Corey Clement, Wendell Smallwood, and Josh Adams, and introduces some uncertainty to Sproles chance […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoFantasy Deep Dive Week 4: Dennis Schroder
I'll admit to being one of the people who were skeptical about Dennis Schroder signing with Oklahoma City. For a still-young point guard, backing up Russell Westbrook isn't the ideal scenario to find yourself in. But with Westbrook missing some time -- and even with Westbrook back in the lineup -- Schroder has found a […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoNikola Jokic Scores 37 In Loss
Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic scored 37 points on 14-for-22 shooting in Friday's loss to the Brooklyn Nets. Jokic also added 21 rebounds and three assists. It was another strong outing from one of the top options in fantasy basketball, and while Sunday's meeting with the Bucks should be a tough one, Jokic does too […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoJarrett Allen Scores 18 Points Against Denver
Brooklyn Nets center Jarrett Allen scored 18 points on 7-for-14 shooting in Friday's win over the Denver Nuggets. He grabbed nine rebounds and added in five blocked shots. Allen is blocking 2.1 shots per night on the season and had a pair of them the last time he met Saturday's opponent, the Golden State Warriors. […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoD'Angelo Russell Leads Nets In Points On Friday
Brooklyn Nets point guard D'Angelo Russell put up 23 points in Friday's win over the Denver Nuggets. He was 7-for-14 from the field and also added five assists, four rebounds, and a pair of steals. Brooklyn faces the Warriors on Saturday night, who Russell had a highly-efficient 25 points against earlier this year. Russell has […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoCaris LeVert Scores 17 Against Nuggets
Brooklyn Nets guard Caris Levert scored 17 points on 6-for-14 shooting in Friday's win over the Denver Nuggets. He had five assists and a pair of rebounds as well. LeVert continues to play a key role for the Nets, though the team's depth does limit his upside a little more than if he were playing […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoChris Herndon IV Has Upside In Week 10
While the Buffalo Bills have limited opposing tight ends from a yardage perspective, they have allowed four touchdowns this year to the position, making New York Jets tight end Chris Herndon an interesting streamer option in Week 10. Herndon has three touchdowns in his past four games, but only once has he received more than […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoJets Receiver Trio Has Low Ceiling In Week 10
The Jets feature three wide receivers who took at least 70 percent of the team's snaps in Week 9, but none of those players present a consistent and safe fantasy option in Week 10 against a Bills team that allows the fifth-fewest fantasy points per game to wide receivers. Robby Anderson, Quincy Enunwa, and Jermaine […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoElijah McGuire Could Be Sneaky Play
New York Jets running back Elijah McGuire took a clear backseat to Isaiah Crowell in Week 9, but he could be a sneaky fantasy play this week against the Buffalo Bills. Buffalo has been susceptible to rushing touchdowns over the past three games, and McGuire could see something closer to Crowell's workload this week after […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoIsaiah Crowell Has Upside In Week 10
New York Jets running back Isaiah Crowell has a shot at putting up some strong fantasy numbers in Week 10 against the Buffalo Bills, who have allowed four rushing touchdowns to backs over the past three games. Crowell is always a boom-or-bust guy, but this could be one of those weeks when he booms, especially […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoJosh McCown Not A Good Fantasy Option In Week 10
With Sam Darnold expected to miss Sunday's meeting with the Bills, the New York Jets will turn to quarterback Josh McCown to start for the team. McCown brings a veteran presence to the field and should avoid excessively turning the ball over, but the Bills currently limit fantasy quarterbacks to the third-fewest fantasy points per […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoJaguars Defense Might Have Another Tough Week
The Jacksonville Jaguars defense hasn't played at the same level this year as it has in the past, and Sunday's meeting with the Indianapolis Colts could lead to another disappointing outing for the Jags. They'll be without Dante Fowler moving forward, who they traded to the Rams at the deadline, and have to face a […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoDede Westbrook Has Deep League Upside In Week 10
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dede Westbrook had the team's highest snap share among wide receivers against the Eagles in Week 8 and looks to be the team's top receiver moving forward, though he has posted low yardage totals over the past few games. In Week 10, he gets a meeting with the Colts, who have […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoKeelan Cole Isn't A Good Fantasy Option In Week 10
Despite opening the season as the favorite to lead the receiving group, Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Keelan Cole has dropped down the team's pecking order. In Week 8 against the Eagles, he saw a snap percentage of just 23, far behind Dede Westbrook, Donte Moncrief, and rookie D.J. Chark, who has started to grow into […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoT.J. Yeldon Remains A Solid PPR Play In Week 10
Jacksonville Jaguars running back T.J. Yeldon has been targeted five or more times in all but one game so far this season, and even with Leonard Fournette (hamstring) back in the lineup, Yeldon's upside as the receiver makes him a good flex option in PPR leagues this week against a Colts team that has allowed […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoLeonard Fournette Has Plenty Of Upside In Week 10
Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) is expected to return to the Jaguars lineup in Week 10 against a Colts defense that gives up the 13th-most fantasy points to the running back position. Fournette does have a little more of a crowd in the backfield now that T.J. Yeldon looks like a strong receiving […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoBlake Bortles Set For Good Week 10
Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles finds himself in a good position in Week 10 against the Indianapolis Colts. Despite some struggles at times this year, Bortles meets a defense that allowed three touchdown passes to the Raiders in Week 8 and would look a lot worse on paper had it not been for a dominant […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoWeek 10 Busts - Overvalued Players to Avoid In Fantasy Football
The NFL season continues to tick along, and as we reach the first week of the season that has two numbers inside of one number in its name, we start to reach panic mode for some fantasy owners. You're sitting at 3-6 and you know another loss dooms you, and you can't risk putting someone […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoDez Bryant May Have Torn Achilles
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Dez Bryant may have suffered a torn Achilles in practice, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network is reporting. Bryant is currently undergoing an MRI to determine the extent of his injury, but a torn Achilles would mean an end to Bryant's comeback before it even began, and would leave the Saints […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoCarmelo Anthony Plays Poorly In Return To OKC
Houston Rockets forward Carmelo Anthony spent last year with the Thunder, and on Thursday he had a chance for a revenge game against his former team. Instead, Anthony was abysmal for the Rockets, scoring two points on 1-for-11 shooting and grabbing five rebounds. Anthony should play better on Saturday against the Spurs, but with lows […]
Justin Carter 6 years agoClint Capela Scores 17 Against Thunder
Houston Rockets center Clint Capela scored 17 points on 8-for-12 shooting in Thursday's loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder. He also grabbed seven rebounds to go along with three assists, a block, and a steal. It was just the third time this year that Capela was held under 10 rebounds, and he should be back […]
