Chris Jones Added To Injury Report
Kansas City Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones (calf) was added to the injury report for the Divisional Round against the Texans and was limited in practice on Thursday with a lingering calf issue.

Keith Hernandez 5 years agoDuane Brown Will Try To Play Sunday
Seattle Seahawks left tackles Duane Brown (knee) and George Fant (groin) both missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday, but Brown is expected to try to play in the Divisional Round against the Packers on Sunday. Brown missed the wild-card win over the Eagles, but Seattle's offensive line will really need him out […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoJaron Brown, Malik Turner Practicing In Full
Seattle Seahawks wide receivers Jaron Brown (knee) and Malik Turner (concussion) both practiced in full on Thursday after being limited in practice on Wednesday. Both players should return to action in the Divisional Round on Sunday against the Seahawks, giving them more depth behind Tyler Lockett, D.K. Metcalf and David Moore. In this run-first offense, […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoBrewers Agree With Logan Morrison
The Milwaukee Brewers agreed to an undisclosed deal with first baseman/outfielder Logan Morrison on Thursday, according to sources. Morrison slugged a career-high 38 home runs and drove in 85 runs in 149 games for the Rays in 2017, but he has fallen off a cliff since. He hit a miserable .186/.276/.368 with 15 homers and […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoCardinals Acquire Prospect Matthew Liberatore
The St. Louis Cardinals acquired pitching prospect Matthew Liberatore from the Rays on Thursday, according to sources familiar with the deal. It's part of a trade expected to send major league pieces back to Tampa, who has been searching for outfield bats. Liberatore, 20, is a left-handed starter that was ranked as Tampa's No. 4 […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoDee Ford Questionable Against Vikings
San Francisco 49ers defensive end Dee Ford (hamstring) is listed as questionable for the Divisional Round against the Vikings. Linebacker Kwon Alexander is coming off Injured Reserve since tearing his pectoral muscle on Halloween and strong safety Jaquiski Tartt (ribs) will also return. Getting pass-rusher Ford back as well would be even more good news […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoMark Ingram, Mark Andrews Questionable
Baltimore Ravens running back Mark Ingram (calf) and tight end Mark Andrews (ankle) are both listed as questionable for the Divisional Round against the Titans on Saturday after both were limited in practice on Thursday. Andrews is expected to play, while Ingram is more of a question mark. Both players were held out of a […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoPirates Agree With Guillermo Heredia
The Pittsburgh Pirates agreed to an undisclosed major league deal with outfielder Guillermo Heredia on Thursday, according to sources. He was non-tendered by the Rays last month and is known as a strong defender and good clubhouse presence. That's not going to do much for fantasy owners, however. Heredia, 29 later this month, hit just […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoAdam Humphries Out For Divisional Round
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Adam Humphries (ankle) is out for the Divisional game against the Ravens on Saturday. Humphries will be missing his sixth straight game, so it's not like he was on anyone's fantasy radar to begin with. Kalif Raymond (concussion) will make his return after sitting out wild-card weekend, but he'll be behind […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoStefon Diggs Good To Go For Divisional Round
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Stefon Diggs (illness) was taken off the final injury report for the Divisional Round against the 49ers on Saturday. Diggs missed some practice time this week because of his illness, but he'll suit up against San Francisco. He had a slow week against the Saints in the wild-card game with two […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoAdam Thielen Questionable Against 49ers
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen (ankle) didn't practice on Friday and is listed as questionable for the Divisional Round against the 49ers on Saturday. Thielen was injured in practice on Wednesday and required stitches for his ankle. He's still expected to play against San Francisco, but the Vikings are playing it cautious with him […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoEagles Expected To Dump Offensive Coordinator
The Philadelphia Eagles are expected to part ways with offensive coordinator Mike Groh and wide receivers coach Carson Walch on Thursday, according to league sources. The Eagles offense was undermanned for most of the season due to injuries to wide receivers DeSean Jackson and Alshon Jeffery and running back Jordan Howard. Considering those setbacks, the […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoKwon Alexander Will Return Saturday
San Francisco 49ers linebacker Kwon Alexander (pectoral) will be activated from Injured Reserve and will be back on the field on Saturday in the Divisional game against the Vikings, but he's unlikely to play an every-down role after a long layoff. He's nine weeks removed from surgery to fix a torn pectoral and just returned […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoVikings Proceeding With Caution With Adam Thielen
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen (ankle) needed stitches for a bad cut on his ankle suffered in practice on Wednesday, according to sources. The initial prognosis is encouraging for him playing in the Divisional Round against the 49ers on Saturday, but the team is gathering information and will proceed with caution. Don't be surprised […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoJaron Brown, Malik Turner Limited In Practice
Seattle Seahawks wide receivers Jaron Brown (knee) and Malik Turner (concussion) were both limited in practice on Wednesday. Both players have a chance to return for the Divisional Round against the Packers, barring a setback later this week. However, neither player is much of a fantasy option if they return, as they'll be behind Tyler […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoWill Fuller, Kenny Stills, Jordan Akins Limited Wednesday
Houston Texans wide receivers Will Fuller (groin) and Kenny Stills (knee) and tight end Jordan Akins (hamstring) were all limited in practice on Wednesday. Fuller's status for the Divisional Round against the Chiefs will be closely watched this week, as Houston's passing game has been much more consistent and explosive when he's on the field. […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoJamaal Williams Practicing In Full
Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams (shoulder) is practicing in full on Wednesday. Williams sat out the regular season finale as a precaution, but he'll be back to back up Aaron Jones in the Divisional Round against the Seahawks. He ran the ball 107 times for 460 yards (4.3 yards per carry) and one […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoTravis Kelce Dealing With Sore Knee
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce (knee) was limited in Wednesday's practice because of a sore knee. The injury isn't serious, however, and shouldn't keep him from playing in the Divisional Round against the Texans on Sunday. It's something worth watching, especially since Kelce is the top-priced tight end on DraftKings this weekend at […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoDiamondbacks Agree With Hector Rondon
The Arizona Diamondbacks agreed to a one-year deal with relief pitcher Hector Rondon on Wednesday, according to sources. Rondon, 32 next month, is guaranteed $3 million. He'll make $2.5 million in 2020 with a $500,000 buyout on his team option. The right-hander had a 3.71 ERA in 62 games last year with the Astros and […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoIndians Expected To Hold Onto Francisco Lindor
Cleveland Indians president Chris Antonetti said on Wednesday that he's more confident that All-Star shortstop Francisco Lindor will be with the team to start the season after the Tribe didn't receive a trade proposal to their liking in the last few weeks. The four-time All-Star is under contract through the 2021 season, but the Indians […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoSeahawks Put Mychal Kendricks On Injured Reserve
The Seattle Seahawks placed linebacker Mychal Kendricks (knee) on Injured Reserve on Wednesday and promoted offensive tackle Chad Wheeler from the practice squad in a corresponding move. Kendricks didn't play in the wild-card win over the Eagles last weekend, and now his season will come to an end. He was effective in his 14 games […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoAdam Humphries Misses Practice Again
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Adam Humphries (ankle) missed practice again on Wednesday. Humphries hasn't played or practiced since Dec. 1, so he shouldn't be expected to suit up for the Divisional Round against the Ravens. Even if he did, he wouldn't be on the fantasy radar after catching 37 passes for 374 yards and two […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoAdam Thielen Lands On Injury Report
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen (ankle) was added to the injury report for the Divisional Round against the 49ers and was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday. After coming back from a hamstring injury that he aggravated on Oct. 20, Thielen finished the season by catching three passes for 27 yards in […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoVikings Optimistic On Stefon Diggs
Minnesota Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer is optimistic that wide receiver Stefon Diggs (illness) will be fine for Saturday in the Divisional Round against the 49ers. Diggs should be fine to play this weekend, even if he doesn't get much practice in this week. The 26-year-old had only two catches for 19 yards in the […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoBrewers Give Craig Counsell Contract Extension
The Milwaukee Brewers are signing manager Craig Counsell to a contract extension that will run through the 2023 season, according to sources. It's a well-deserved extension, as Counsell led the Brew Crew to a National League Championship appearance in 2018 before a wild-card showing this past season. The 49-year-old coach started as the head man […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoMark Ingram Day-To-Day
Baltimore Ravens offensive coordinator Greg Roman said that running back Mark Ingram (calf) is "day-to-day." Ingram wasn't spotted at practice on Tuesday after feeling tightness in his calf. Holding him out was a precaution after he was going full speed in practice the previous week. It's a setback, though, and it makes Ingram's status for […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoEric Weddle Undergoes Surgery
Los Angeles Rams safety Eric Weddle (knee) underwent a meniscus trim and is expected to recover in weeks, not months. Somehow, it was the 35-year-old's first ever surgery. In his first season with the Rams, Weddle had 108 total tackles (69 solo) and four passes defensed over a full season. He clearly still has some […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoTeddy Bridgewater Unlikely To Leave Saints
New Orleans Saints quarterback Teddy Bridgewater, who will be an unrestricted free agent in March, will be tough to pry away from the Saints, even if Drew Brees returns for another season. It would likely take a good team that isn't expected to draft a quarterback in the upcoming draft. The Dolphins could be a […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoTom Brady Says He Has More To Prove
New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, who will become an unrestricted free agent in March, said that it was "probably unlikely" that he'd retire following the wild-card loss to the Titans last weekend, and he wrote on his Instagram account on Wednesday that "I still have more to prove." New England can't place the franchise […]

The Texas Rangers agreed to a one-year, $6.75 million deal with catcher Robinson Chirinos on Tuesday, according to MLB sources. He'll make $5.75 million in 2020, and the deal includes a club option for 2021 worth $6.25 million or a $1 million buyout. Texas opted not to pick up Chirinos' option for 2019 and instead […]
