Philadelphia Eagles wide receivers Alshon Jeffery (ankle) and Nelson Agholor (knee) are both expected to practice in full on Wednesday.

Kansas City Royals outfield prospect Khalil Lee (hand) will be shut down from winter ball after suffering a broken bone in his right hand on Wednesday when he was hit by a pitch.

The Chicago White Sox are in the market for a starting pitcher and have set their sights on starting pitcher Zack Wheeler. The ChiSox just made a big splash on Thursday by signing the best catcher on the market in Yasmani Grandal for four years, so now they'll look to bolster their rotation with one […]

Concerns have surfaced around Dallas Cowboys linebacker Leighton Vander Esch (neck), who has already missed one game this year with a neck injury, and he's not expected to play in Week 12 against the Patriots, according to sources.

Keith Hernandez 5 years agoPatriots Won't Re-Sign Antonio Brown
The New England Patriots won't be re-signing wide receiver Antonio Brown, according to a source. There were rumors circling that the Pats were looking at Brown again with Mohamed Sanu (ankle) potentially missing multiple games with a high ankle sprain. That's not the case, though, and Brown is highly unlikely to be signed with the […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoGeorge Kittle, Emmanuel Sanders, Deebo Samuel Limited
San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (ankle, knee) and wide receivers Emmanuel Sanders (ribs) and Deebo Samuel (shoulder) were all limited in practice on Thursday. It's NBC Sports Bay Area's Matt Maiocco's opinion that all three will play on Sunday night against the Packers. That'll especially ring true if all three get in at […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoTexans Activate Jordan Thomas From Injured Reserve
The Houston Texans activated tight end Jordan Thomas (ribs) from the Injured Reserve on Thursday and waived defensive end Joel Heath and wide receiver Steven Mitchell in corresponding moves. As a sixth-round rookie last year, Thomas had 20 receptions for 215 yards and four touchdowns. Thomas has some long-term intrigue, but he'll return to a […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoJonathan Williams Expected To Start Thursday
The Indianapolis Colts are expected to treat running back Jonathan Williams as the starter on Thursday night against the Texans. It doesn't mean that Williams will see the most touches in a backfield that will also feature Jordan Wilkins and Nyheim Hines in Marlon Mack's (hand) absence, but it's good news for those relying on […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoNelson Agholor Says He's Day-To-Day
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor (knee) said he is day-to-day, and he is hoping to get back on the practice field on Friday. Agholor is on the wrong side of questionable as things stand now, but he'd be in play to suit up if he was able to practice on Friday. Alshon Jeffery (ankle) […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoPhillip Dorsett Returns To Limited Practice
New England Patriots wide receiver Phillip Dorsett (concussion) returned to a limited practice on Thursday after missing Wednesday's session. While Dorsett still needs final clearance from the concussion protocol, there's optimism that he'll get it and be able to play in Week 12 against the Cowboys. Even with Mohamed Sanu (ankle) out possibly multiple games, […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoEmmanuel Sanders, Matt Breida, Robbie Gould Not Practicing
San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders (ribs), running back Matt Breida (ankle) and kicker Robbie Gould (quadriceps) are not practicing on Thursday for the second straight day. Sanders is looking more spry in his rehab than he did last week, so he should be able to play on Sunday night as long as he […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoGeorge Kittle, Deebo Samuel Doing Non-Contact Work
San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (knee) and rookie wide receiver Deebo Samuel (shoulder) are taking part in practice on Thursday in non-contact jerseys. It's progress for both players, especially for Kittle, who has missed the last two games. The problem for both if they are game-time decisions is that they play on Sunday […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoRobert Woods Will Practice Thursday
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Robert Woods has returned to the team and will practice on Thursday, according to head coach Sean McVay. However, Woods' status for Monday night against the Ravens is still undecided. Woods was a surprise scratch last Sunday night due to personal reasons. Unless we get definitive word that he'll play […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoDiontae Johnson, Benny Snell Jr. Practicing In Full
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson (concussion) and running back Benny Snell Jr. (knee) were both full participants in practice on Thursday. Johnson must still be cleared by an independent neurologist, but his chances of playing in Week 12 against the Bengals are looking good despite being carted off after a scary head injury in […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoJames Conner, JuJu Smith-Schuster Miss Practice Again
Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner (shoulder) and wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (concussion, knee) both missed practice for the second day in a row on Thursday, and both are not expected to play in Week 12 against the Bengals. You should've already been planning to be without both players this week. The goods news is […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoWill Fuller Expected To Play Thursday
Houston Texans wide receiver Will Fuller (hamstring), who is a game-time decision for Thursday night against the Colts, is expected to play. Fuller brings a deep element to this offense, but he's been out since Week 7 and the Texans offense as a whole has struggled in his absence. He was injured in the last […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoTim Patrick Returns To Practice Thursday
Denver Broncos wide receiver Tim Patrick (shoulder) is practicing on Thursday after being held out on Wednesday. It's a good sign for his availability in Week 12 against the Bills after he made his season debut in Week 11. Patrick effectively served as the No. 2 wideout behind Courtland Sutton, catching four of his eight […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoT.Y. Hilton Expected To Play Thursday
Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (calf), who is questionable for Thursday night against the Texans, believes he's good to go. The Colts don't have any issues with him not practicing and playing in Week 12. The Texans have been game-planning for him to play and expect him to be on the field. You'll still […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoMyles Garrett's Suspension Upheld
Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett's suspension appeal was upheld by the NFL, and he is suspended for the rest of the season and postseason. He can apply for reinstatement when the season ends. Garrett lost his cool at the end of last Thursday's game and hit Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph in the head with […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoAuden Tate, Stanley Morgan Jr. Miss Another Practice
Cincinnati Bengals wide receivers Auden Tate (concussion) and Stanley Morgan Jr. missed their second straight practice this week on Thursday. With A.J. Green (ankle) likely to miss another game, Cincy's receiving corps is in dire straights. Expect Tyler Boyd and Alex Erickson to be the top two receivers, but they won't have much fantasy appeal […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoA.J. Green Not Practicing
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green (ankle) is not at practice again on Thursday. Green was close to returning to action a few weeks ago, but a setback has now made it questionable as to whether he'll even play at all in 2019. As of right now it looks like that won't happen, so most […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoDevonta Freeman Missing Practice Thursday
Atlanta Falcons running back Devonta Freeman (foot) wasn't seen at practice on Thursday for the second straight day. Freeman is expected to miss at least another game, so he should be planted firmly on benches for Week 12 against the Buccaneers. Tampa has surprisingly been one of the best against the run in 2019, so […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoJulio Jones Back At Practice Thursday
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones (foot) is back at practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. Jones was just being rested as a precaution on Wednesday. He'll be just fine to face the Buccaneers in Week 12. The veteran hasn't scored since Sept. 22, but he should be peppered with targets with tight […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoNelson Agholor Out Again Thursday
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor (knee) missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Agholor is on the wrong side of questionable unless he returns to practice on Friday. The 26-year-old hasn't really been a fantasy option unless Alshon Jeffery is hurt, and even then he has mostly underwhelmed. He had four catches […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoAdrian Peterson Not Spotted Thursday
Washington Redskins running back Adrian Peterson (toe) was not spotted at practice on Thursday. If he's officially out of practice, it'll be his second straight missed day ahead of Week 12 against the Lions. Peterson is in danger of missing the game this weekend as he fights through turf toe. Making matters worse for his […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoMitch Trubisky Still Day-To-Day
Chicago Bears head coach Matt Nagy said that quarterback Mitch Trubisky (hip) had a good practice on Wednesday, but he's still "day-to-day." Nagy called Trubisky's practice on Wednesday "a step in the right direction." Unless Trubisky has a setback in practice, he should be in line to start under center in Week 12 against the […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoOptimism Surrounding Phillip Dorsett
Although New England Patriots wide receiver Phillip Dorsett (concussion) missed practice on Wednesday, there is mid-week optimism that he could be cleared in time to play in Week 12 against the Cowboys, according to a source. Mohamed Sanu (ankle) could now miss multiple games with a high ankle sprain, so the Patriots could be in […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoDede Westbrook Not Expected To Practice
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dede Westbrook (illness) is not expected to practice on Thursday. Westbrook returned to the field last week and caught four of his six targets for just 32 yards in the loss to the Colts. D.J. Chark got all the love from a returning quarterback Nick Foles. Westbrook was Foles' favorite target […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoRhett Ellison Unlikely To Play In Week 12
New York Giants tight end Rhett Ellison (concussion) is unlikely to play in Week 12 against the Bears, according to head coach Pat Shurmur. Starting tight end Evan Engram (foot) has yet to practice this week and is headed down the same path, so you won't be able to use either tight end in fantasy […]
