San Francisco 49ers running back Raheem Mostert (knee) and wide receiver Dante Pettis (back) were both limited in practice on Thursday.

Keith Hernandez 5 years agoDavid Montgomery, Trey Burton Miss Practice Thursday
Chicago Bears rookie running back David Montgomery (ankle) and tight ends Trey Burton (calf) and Adam Shaheen (foot) missed practice on Thursday. Montgomery rolled his ankle in practice on Wednesday and could wind up as questionable for Sunday night against the Rams. That will obviously pose a big headache for fantasy owners, but Montgomery is […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoJake Odorizzi Staying With Twins
Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Jake Odorizzi accepted the team's one-year, $17.8 million qualifying offer on Thursday, according to sources. Barring a contract extension, the right-hander will be a free agent after the 2020 season. Odorizzi had one of his best seasons in the bigs last year, going 15-7 with a 3.51 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoJose Abreu Accepts Qualifying Offer
Chicago White Sox first baseman Jose Abreu accepted the one-year, $17.8 million qualifying offer on Thursday, according to sources. Barring an extension, Abreu will be a free agent after the 2020 season. The 32-year-old Cuban quietly led baseball with 123 RBI in 2019 and also slugged 33 home runs, hit .284 and scored 85 runs […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoGerald Everett, Tyler Higbee Expected To Play Sunday
Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said he expects tight ends Gerald Everett (wrist) and Tyler Higbee (knee) to play on Sunday night against the Bears in Week 11. Everett has had a breakout season in 2019 and has become the preferred pass-catching tight end over Higbee. With Brandin Cooks (concussion) out at least […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoAlex Erickson Gets In Limited Practice
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Alex Erickson (back) returned to a limited practice on Thursday after being held out on Wednesday. Even with A.J. Green (ankle) unlikely to return this weekend, Erickson isn't a recommended fantasy starter in any league as the No. 3 receiver on a winless Bengals team with rookie quarterback Ryan Finley under […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoA.J. Green Not Practicing Again Thursday
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green (ankle) remains out of practice on Thursday. Green suffered a setback due to swelling in his ankle last week and remains without a timetable to return. He was getting close to making his season debut, but he now appears unlikely to play in Week 11 against the Raiders. At […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoGerrit Cole Not Short On Suitors
The Yankees, Angels, Rangers and Phillies are among the teams that have already shown interest in starting pitcher Gerrit Cole. The Nationals could be interested in him if they can't re-sign Stephen Strasburg, while the Astros haven't given up either. Cole is certain to set a record for a starter in free agency after leading […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoAmari Cooper Returns To Limited Practice
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper (ankle, knee) returned to a limited practice on Thursday after being held out on Wednesday. He should do more in practice on Friday and remains on track to play in Week 11 against the Lions. Cooper has battled through several injuries this year but has remained one of the […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoRyan Switzer Placed On Injured Reserve
The Pittsburgh Steelers placed wide receiver Ryan Switzer (back) and fullback Roosevelt Nix (knee) on Injured Reserve on Thursday. Switzer injured his back in the Week 10 win over the Rams. In corresponding moves, receiver Tevin Jones and linebacker Jayrone Elliott were added to the active roster. Switzer was more of a special teams guy […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoAdrian Peterson Fine For Week 11
Washington Redskins interim head coach Bill Callahan said that running back Adrian Peterson was rested in practice on Thursday, and he'll be fine for Week 11 against the Jets. The 34-year-old has been the bell-cow back since Callahan took over, and he's seen at least 18 carries in three of the last four games, so […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoRedskins Looking To Get Terry McLaurin Going
Washington Redskins interim head coach Bill Callahan said that moving rookie wide receiver Terry McLaurin around more could help get him out of his slump. The impressive rookie is versatile and capable of moving to different spots in the formation. The 24-year-old hasn't found the end zone since Oct. 13 against the Dolphins (twice that […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoGeorge Kittle, Emmanuel Sanders, Robbie Gould Out Thursday
San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (ankle, knee), wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders (ribs) and kicker Robbie Gould (quadriceps) all missed practice for the second straight day this week on Thursday. It's looking like Kittle and Gould will miss their second straight game, while Sanders is doubtful after injuring his ribs on Monday night. Even […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoTim Patrick Expected To Be Activated This Week
Denver Broncos wide receiver Tim Patrick (hand) is expected to be activated from the Injured Reserve this week to play in Week 11 against the Vikings. Cornerback Bryce Callahan (foot) is expected to go on IR in a corresponding move. Patrick came on strong at the end of last year after the Broncos traded Demaryius […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoAdam Thielen Has A Chance To Play In Week 11
Minnesota Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer said that wide receiver Adam Thielen (hamstring) has a chance to play in Week 11 against the Broncos despite the fact that he hasn't practiced yet this week. We'll believe it if Thielen returns to practice on Friday, but even then he'll likely be a long shot, especially with […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoYankees Eyeing Starting Pitching
The New York Yankees have "checked in" with starting pitchers Gerrit Cole, Stephen Strasburg and Zack Wheeler so far this offseason, according to general manager Brian Cashman. Madison Bumgarner is another starter the Yanks have kicked the tires on. Cole and Strasburg are the top two free-agent hurlers on the market this season. Cole led […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoBlue Jays Have Met With Yasmani Grandal
The Toronto Blue Jays are among the teams that have met with catcher Yasmani Grandal. Grandal bet successfully on himself in 2019 by signing a one-year deal in Milwaukee, and he's now the most coveted free-agent catcher on the market after slugging 28 home runs for the Brew Crew. His left-handed bat would fit really […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoPhillies Looking At Mike Moustakas
The Philadelphia Phillies have third baseman Mike Moustakas on their radar, according to multiple sources. The Phillies have a good history with Scott Boras, the agent for Moustakas, and they could look to add a third baseman this winter to allow top prospect Alec Bohm more development in the minors. Moose has done well the […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoAnthony Rendon On Dodgers Radar
The Los Angeles Dodgers have third baseman Anthony Rendon on their radar this offseason. Rendon will be one of the most coveted free agents this winter behind starting pitcher Gerrit Cole. Justin Turner has offered to change positions in order for the Dodgers to bring in a free-agent third baseman like Rendon or Josh Donaldson. […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoDawson Knox Dealing With Sore Knee
Buffalo Bills rookie tight end Dawson Knox (knee) was held out of practice on Thursday due to a sore knee, but head coach Sean McDermott expects Knox to return to practice on Friday and be fine for Week 11 against the Dolphins. Knox has shown some potential in his first year in the NFL and […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoNo T.Y. Hilton At Practice Thursday
Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (calf) wasn't spotted at practice on Thursday for the second straight day this week. Hilton has a chance to return in Week 11 against the Jaguars, but he'll likely need to get in at least a limited practice on Friday since he hasn't played since getting injured in Week […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoJack Doyle Back At Practice
Indianapolis Colts tight end Jack Doyle (shoulder) is back at practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. Doyle should be able to play this weekend in Week 11 against the Jaguars. He has scored in back-to-back weeks but has only 66 yards receiving in that timeframe and has his upside limited while sharing snaps […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoAdrian Peterson Held Out Of Practice Thursday
Washington Redskins running back Adrian Peterson (toe) is not practicing on Thursday after being limited on Wednesday. It's a downgrade for AD, but the Redskins could just be resting the veteran with the season entering the second half. After all, interim head coach Bill Callahan has been riding Peterson hard since he took over. Even […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoMarquise Brown Misses Practice Thursday
Baltimore Ravens rookie wide receiver Marquise Brown (ankle) was absent from practice on Thursday after being limited on Wednesday. Brown could be truly questionable for Week 11 against the Texans, so his status on Friday is one to watch. He had a good game in Week 10 against the winless Bengals despite playing limited snaps, […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoChase Edmonds Absent Thursday
Arizona Cardinals running back Chase Edmonds (hamstring) missed practice for the second straight day this week on Thursday and is on track to miss another game in Week 11 against the 49ers. Edmonds had some fleeting RB2 appeal when David Johnson (ankle, back) was sidelined, but that opportunity has dried up after the team traded […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoAlshon Jeffery Out Of Practice Again
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery (ankle) missed practice for the second straight day this week on Thursday, putting him on the wrong side of questionable for Week 11's showdown with the Patriots. The Eagles really can't afford to be without Jeffery now that DeSean Jackson (abdomen) is out for the year. That would mean […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoTy Johnson Back At Practice Thursday
Detroit Lions running back Ty Johnson (concussion) returned to practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. It's unclear if Johnson has passed the league's concussion protocol, but it's progress nonetheless and gives him a shot to play in Week 11 against the Cowboys. If he's active, expect the Lions to go with a three-headed […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoMatthew Stafford Not Practicing Thursday
Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford (back) remained out of practice for the second straight day this week on Thursday. Stafford is headed towards his second straight missed game after not sitting out since 2010. His absence would be a downgrade for all of Detroit's skill players in a tough matchup against the Cowboys. Jeff Driskel […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoDavid Montgomery Rolled His Ankle Wednesday
Chicago Bears head coach Matt Nagy said that rookie running back David Montgomery (ankle) "lightly rolled" his ankle in practice on Wednesday. The Bears will keep an eye on him before the Week 11 matchup on Sunday night against the Rams. It's a situation to watch, and it could be troubling for fantasy owners with […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoDevin Funchess Unlikely To Play In Week 11
Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Devin Funchess (collarbone) was limited in practice on Thursday for the second straight day this week, but he's unlikely to make his return in Week 11 against the Jaguars.
