Sam Darnold Gets In Full Practice
New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold (toe) was a full participant in practice on Thursday after being limited on Wednesday. Darnold injured his toe (and his feelings) in the pathetic loss to the Patriots on Monday night in which he admitted to "seeing ghosts" on the sidelines. He will play against the Jaguars this weekend […]
Jamison Crowder Added To Week 8 Injury Report
New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder (knee) was added to the Week 8 injury report against the Jaguars and was limited in practice on Thursday. Crowder should be able to play this weekend unless he misses practice on Friday. The Jets offense was a disaster on Monday night in the blowout loss to the […]
Denzel Ward, Greedy Williams On Track To Return
Cleveland Browns cornerbacks Denzel Ward (hamstring) and Greedy Williams (hamstring) were both practicing in full on Thursday, signaling that they'll return in Week 8 against the Patriots after sitting out since Week 2. It's good news for Cleveland's secondary as they try to spring the upset on the undefeated Patriots on the road. New England's […]
Parris Campbell Has Chance To Return This Week
Indianapolis Colts rookie wide receiver Parris Campbell (abdomen) was limited in practice on Wednesday and Thursday this week. Campbell has been out since Week 4, but he has a realistic shot to suit up in Week 8 against the Broncos. With T.Y. Hilton firmly entrenched as the No. 1 receiver and with Zach Pascal stepping […]
Jets Open To Trading Robby Anderson
The New York Jets have made it clear to other teams that wide receiver Robby Anderson is available before the Oct. 29 trade deadline for the right price, according to sources. The Jets are looking to add 2020 draft capital in the midst of another lost season. The Eagles had interest in Anderson last year, […]
Yankees Unsure Of Jacoby Ellsbury's Status
New York Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said that outfielder Jacoby Ellsbury (hip) is "not in a position health-wise" for the team to know if he's a realistic option for the 2020 season. Ellsbury has battled a wide range of injuries and hasn't played for the Yankees in the last two seasons. There will obviously […]
C.J. Mosley Not Over His Injury
New York Jets linebacker C.J. Mosley (groin), who returned last Monday night for the first time since the season opener, didn't look right in his return. Head coach Adam Gase said the team will do a "deep dive" to see what exactly is wrong with Mosley's groin. It doesn't sound promising that he'll be on […]
Patrick Mahomes Works With Second Team Thursday
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (knee) worked with the second-team offense on Thursday and looked to be moving around better. Mahomes has been pretty limited the last two days of practice. While he's making great progress from a dislocated kneecap a week ago, the odds are still slim that he plays on Sunday night […]
Corey Davis Returns From Illness
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Corey Davis (illness) was back at practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday with an illness. Davis should be able to suit up this Sunday in Week 8 in a great matchup with the Buccaneers. The 24-year-old showed some chemistry with quarterback Ryan Tannehill last week against the Chargers, catching […]
Delanie Walker Still Out Thursday
Tennessee Titans tight end Delanie Walker (ankle) missed his second straight day of practice on Thursday. Walker barely played in Week 7 and looks set to miss Week 8 against the Buccaneers unless he can practice on Friday. The oft-injured veteran tight end seems to be running on fumes and hasn't done much of anything […]
Josh Jacobs Not Seen At Practice
Oakland Raiders rookie running back Josh Jacobs (shoulder) wasn't seen at practice on Thursday for the second straight day. Head coach Jon Gruden said on Wednesday that Jacobs would be questionable for Week 8 against the Texans. That's worrisome since the Raiders play a late afternoon game this weekend. Fantasy owners would be more relieved […]
Russell Gage Has An Opportunity
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Russell Gage will be the next man up inside now that Mohamed Sanu is playing for the Patriots. Buried on the depth chart this year, Gage has only four catches on eight targets for 44 yards, but he has a chance to step up in Atlanta's high-powered offense in three-receiver sets. […]
Matt Ryan Not Expected To Practice Thursday
Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan (ankle) is not expected to practice for the second straight day on Thursday as he continues to nurse his sprained ankle. The Falcons said earlier this week that they planned on Ryan starting in Week 8 against the Seahawks, but all signs right now point to Matt Schaub starting unless […]
Davante Adams Misses Practice Again
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams (toe) stretched for the second straight day on Thursday but did not practice with the team. Adams could be a game-time decision on Sunday night against the Chiefs, but fantasy owners should be prepared to be without him again unless he can get in a limited practice on […]
David Johnson Misses Practice Thursday
Arizona Cardinals running back David Johnson (ankle, back) was not on the practice field for the second straight day on Thursday. Johnson re-injured himself in last week's win over the Giants and saw backup Chase Edmonds dominate touches and find the end zone three times. It's not a good sign that the Cardinals signed both […]
Malcolm Brown Ruled Out Against Bengals
Los Angeles Rams running back Malcolm Brown (ankle) will be out for Week 8 against the Bengals in London. It will be Brown's second straight absence. Todd Gurley returned from a one-game absence in Week 7 but was spelled often by rookie Darrell Henderson. Gurley maintains RB2 value in fantasy, but this matchup could offer […]
William Jackson To Return For Bengals Defense
Cincinnati Bengals cornerback William Jackson (shoulder) will return to face the Rams in Week 8 in London after missing just one game. However, head coach Zac Taylor said that cornerback Darqueze Dennard (hamstring) is doubtful to play. Dre Kirkpatrick is also still sidelined, so the Bengals will once again be short-handed against a powerful Rams […]
A.J. Green, Cordy Glenn Won't Play In London
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green (ankle) and left tackle Cordy Glenn (shoulder) have been ruled out for Week 8 against the Rams in London. The Bengals are on bye next week, so the soonest Green and Glenn can play in 2019 will be in Week 10. Although the Bengals say they don't want to […]
Cam Newton Hasn't Practiced This Week
Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton (foot) could travel with the team to San Francisco this week, but Newton has yet to practice this week and won't be active. The Panthers announced that Kyle Allen would make another start against the 49ers earlier this week, and Newton must return to practice soon if he has any […]
Sterling Shepard Ruled Out For Week 8
New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard (concussion) was limited in practice again on Thursday, but he will not play in Week 8 against the Lions. Shepard has already suffered two concussions this year, so the Giants are playing it really safe with him. He's been out since Oct. 6 against the Vikings. Golden Tate […]
Giancarlo Stanton Suffered Grade 2 Quad Strain
New York Yankees outfielder Giancarlo Stanton (quadriceps) suffered a Grade 2 quadriceps strain in the American League Championship Series against the Astros, according to general manager Brian Cashman. It was a year full of injuries for the 29-year-old, as he played in just 18 games in the regular season and hit .288/.403/.492 with three home […]
Patrick Mahomes Practicing Again Thursday
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (knee) is practicing again on Thursday, but he's not expected to do a whole lot for the second straight day. Mahomes is recovering from his dislocated kneecap at a good rate, but he's still unlikely to play in Week 8 on Sunday night against the Packers. But the athletic […]
Saquon Barkley Practicing In Full
New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (ankle) was a full participant in practice on Thursday. Barkley had a little injury scare in his return to action last week, but ultimately he's fine and will be ready to go in a nice matchup in Week 8 against the Lions on the road. Barkley played a […]
Nolan Jones Undergoes Surgery On Thumb
Cleveland Indians third baseman Nolan Jones (thumb), the team's top prospect per MLB Pipeline, had surgery on his right thumb on Wednesday. The youngster will start his rehab this week with the goal of doing unrestricted baseball activities at the start of spring training next year. The 21-year-old left-handed hitter batted .272/.409/.442 with 15 homers, […]
Phillies Hire Joe Girardi As Manager
The Philadelphia Phillies hired Joe Girardi as their new manager on Thursday, according to a source. Girardi is replacing Gabe Kapler, who was fired after just two seasons and a middling record in Philly. The Phillies signed Bryce Harper last offseason but missed the playoffs and went 81-81 for fourth place in the National League […]
Jake Arrieta Won't Opt Out Of His Deal
Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Jake Arrieta will not exercise the opt-out clause in his contract after coming off elbow surgery. He's heading into the final year of a three-year, $75 million contract and will earn $20 million in 2020. The right-hander posted an ERA above 4.00 (4.64) for the first time since 2013 and went […]
Luke Voit Undergoes Surgery
New York Yankees first baseman Luke Voit (hernia) had surgery to repair core-muscle injuries, according to general manager Brian Cashman. Voit was having a fantastic year in pinstripes before a hernia knocked him out for most of August. The 28-year-old slugger finished the year hitting .263/.378/.464 with a career-high 21 home runs and 62 RBI […]
Masahiro Tanaka Has Bone Chips Removed From Elbow
New York Yankees starting pitcher Masahiro Tanaka (elbow) underwent arthroscopic surgery to remove bone spurs from his right elbow, according to general manager Brian Cashman. It's a notable procedure, but Tanaka should have enough time to heal up before spring training of 2020. The Japanese right-hander went 11-9 with a 4.45 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and […]
Aaron Hicks To Undergo Tommy John Surgery
New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Hicks (elbow) will undergo Tommy John surgery on Oct. 30 and will be out for eight to 10 months, according to general manager Brian Cashman. Hicks was sidelined for a lot of the second half with his elbow injury, but he returned in the postseason. The 30-year-old switch-hitter has put […]
O.J. Howard Held Out Of Practice Thursday
Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end O.J. Howard (hamstring) is being held out of practice on Thursday after being limited on Wednesday. It's not a good sign for Howard's status this Sunday against the Titans, but he could return to practice on Friday and be fine. Still, this is not what fantasy owners want to see […]
