Geoff Swaim Questionable For Week 4
Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Geoff Swaim (illness) is listed as questionable for Week 4 against the Broncos. In three games so far this year, Swaim has eight catches on 10 targets for just 39 yards, so he's not on the fantasy radar to begin with. Rookie Josh Oliver has already been ruled out, so James […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoJulian Edelman Expected To Play Sunday
New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman (chest) is making the trip to Buffalo and is expected to play in Week 4 against the Bills. Edelman was limited in practice all week, but the question remains how effective he can be at less than 100 percent against a very strong defense on the road. Edelman's […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoTyler Lockett Has Plenty Of Upside In Week 4
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett is in a nice situation for Week 4 against an Arizona Cardinals team that is still missing cornerbacks Patrick Peterson (suspension) and Robert Alford (leg). Arizona is ranked 17th in fantasy points allowed per game (23.6) to the position and they did a decent job limiting Lockett in two […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoOlabisi Johnson Ready For Bigger Role
Minnesota Vikings rookie wide receiver Olabisi Johnson is expected to be the team's No. 3 receiver behind Adam Thielen and Stefon Diggs after Chad Beebe (ankle) suffered torn ligaments in his ankle in Week 3. "I’ll be the slot receiver," Johnson said. "I’m going in whenever we go to three-receiver sets and things like that." […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoJamaal Williams Released From Hospital
Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams (head, neck) was released from the hospital on Friday after being taken off the field on a stretcher on Thursday night following a scary hit on the first play of the game against the Eagles. "He's at home now and it sounds like he's doing well," head coach […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoMelvin Gordon Has Good Chance To Play Sunday
Los Angeles Chargers running back Melvin Gordon has a good chance to make his season debut in Week 4 against the Dolphins with Justin Jackson (calf) now out possibly for multiple weeks. The Chargers aren't ready to give Gordon the lead-back role -- that still belongs to Austin Ekeler for another week -- but he's […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoCam Newton Won't Return Until He's 100 Percent
Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton (foot) confirmed that he's dealing with a mild Lisfranc injury and said he's doing everything in his power to come back. He could be out for a week or up to six weeks, and he wants to be 100 percent healthy when he returns. In other words, don't expect Newton […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoRashaad Penny, Ziggy Ansah Expected To Play
Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny (hamstring) and defensive end Ziggy Ansah (back), who are both questionable for Week 4 against the Cardinals, practiced in full on Friday and are expected to play this Sunday. Head coach Pete Carroll said they have "a good chance" to play. Penny could chip away at Chris Carson's workload […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoJustin Jackson Could Be Out A Few Weeks
Los Angeles Chargers running back Justin Jackson (calf) is dealing with a calf strain that could keep him out a few weeks. Jackson was shaping up as a nice RB3/flex option this week against the lowly Dolphins, but he injured himself in practice on Thursday and has already been ruled out for this Sunday. He's […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoMatthew Stafford Expected To Play Against Chiefs
Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford (hip) is expected to play in Week 4 against the Chiefs despite being listed as questionable after popping up on the injury report on Friday. Sources are saying that they'd be shocked if Stafford didn't suit up. Typically a midrange QB for fantasy owners, Stafford has potential QB1 upside this […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoDamiere Byrd Ruled Out Against Seahawks
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Damiere Byrd (hamstring) has been ruled out for Week 4 against the Seahawks. He's third on the team in receiving yards (96) and has 12 catches through three games this year. As a result, rookies Keesean Johnson and Andy Isabella will see more opportunities behind Larry Fitzgerald and Christian Kirk. Even […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoRashaad Penny Listed As Questionable For Week 4
Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Week 4 against the Cardinals. Penny has a chance to take more of the workload from Chris Carson due to his fumbling issues, but it's still hard to endorse the second-year back as an RB3/flex in shallow leagues while he's injured. Even if […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoTerry McLaurin Expected To Play Sunday
Washington Redskins rookie wide receiver Terry McLaurin (hamstring) is expected to play in Week 4 against the Giants, according to sources. His injury is described as a minor pull, and the team held him out of practice this week as a precaution. McLaurin is listed as questionable for this weekend, and he's shaping up to […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoDavante Adams' Injury Not Serious
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams' (toe) injury isn't believed to be serious after he underwent an MRI exam on Friday, according to sources. The Packers will be cautious with Adams, but if he misses any time, it won't be much. Adams was believed to be suffering from turf toe after the Thursday night […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoJulian Edelman, Rex Burkhead Questionable
New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman (chest) and running back Rex Burkhead (foot) are both listed as questionable for Week 4 against the Bills. Both players are trending in the right direction for the tough matchup with Buffalo's defense. Even on the road against the Bills, Edelman is a low-end WR2, at worst, if […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoMatthew Stafford Questionable For Week 4
Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford (hip) was limited in practice on Friday and is listed as questionable for Week 4 against the Chiefs. Ultimately we'd expect Stafford to play this weekend, but if he doesn't, it would be either rookie David Blough or Jeff Driskel starting under center. That would be a nightmare for anyone […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoT.Y. Hilton Doubtful To Face Raiders
Updating a previous report, Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (quadriceps) missed practice all week and is now listed as doubtful for Week 4 against the Raiders. Even if Hilton does manage to suit up, he's going to be super risky for fantasy owners and could be a decoy. Receivers Parris Campbell and Deon Cain […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoVance McDonald Misses Practice Again
Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Vance McDonald (shoulder) missed practice for the second straight day on Friday. McDonald is looking doubtful to play on Monday night against the Bengals. The good news is Pittsburgh doesn't think his injury is very serious. With the game being on Monday, we'd suggest going in another direction at the tight […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoTre'Quan Smith Ruled Out Against Cowboys
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith (ankle) missed practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 4 against the Cowboys. Smith also missed last week's game. With quarterback Drew Brees (thumb) out and Teddy Bridgewater now running the show, no receiver other than Michael Thomas should be trusted for fantasy lineups. Behind […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoDevin Singletary Questionable, Tyler Kroft Out
Buffalo Bills rookie running back Devin Singletary (hamstring) was limited in practice for the second straight day on Friday and is questionable for Week 4 against the Patriots. Tight end Tyler Kroft (ankle) missed practice all week and has been ruled out. Even if Singletary returns after missing Week 3, he'll likely be eased in […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoCase Keenum Will Play In Week 4
Washington Redskins quarterback Case Keenum (foot) practiced in full for the second straight day on Friday and was taken off the final injury report for Week 4 against the Giants. You can make a case that Keenum is an attractive QB2 this weekend against the terrible Giants Defense, even though Keenum turned the ball over […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoAlbert Wilson Questionable, Allen Hurns Out
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Albert Wilson (calf, hip) is listed as questionable for Week 4 against the Chargers, while receiver Allen Hurns (concussion) has been ruled out. Wilson was limited in practice all week and has a good shot to return since going down with an injury in the season opener. If he's active, he'll […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoMichael Gallup Likely A Few Weeks From Returning
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup (knee) still has swelling in his knee after undergoing an arthroscopic procedure, according to a source. He will not play in Week 4 against the Saints and isn't expected to return in Week 5 against the Packers either. Gallup is likely a couple weeks away from returning. The second-year […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoDelanie Walker Good To Go
Tennessee Titans tight end Delanie Walker (knee) will be good to go for Week 4 against the Falcons, according to head coach Mike Vrabel. Walker returned to practice on Friday and was removed from the final injury report. The veteran tight end has been one of the most targeted tight ends in the NFL and […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoCalvin Ridley, Ito Smith Not On Final Injury Report
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley (hip) and running back Ito Smith (concussion) both practiced in full on Friday and were taken off the final injury report for Week 4 against the Titans. Ridley was a bust last week and was targeted just once, but he could easily bounce back at home against the Titans. […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoMelvin Gordon Could Play Sunday
Updating a previous report, Los Angeles Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn said that running back Melvin Gordon could play in Week 4 against the Dolphins in a limited role now that Justin Jackson (calf) has been ruled out with a calf strain. Gordon will travel with the team to Miami. The Chargers will also be […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoTravis Benjamin Doubtful To Face Dolphins
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Travis Benjamin (hip) is listed as doubtful to play in Week 4 against the Dolphins. It's disappointing for anyone who picked up Benjamin hoping that he'd be the No. 2 receiver with Mike Williams (back) hurting in an excellent matchup. But both Williams and Benjamin will be out, leaving Dontrelle […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoMike Williams, Justin Jackson, Michael Badgley Out
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams (back), running back Justin Jackson (calf), tight end Virgil Green (groin) and kicker Michael Badgley (groin) have all been ruled out for Week 4 against the Dolphins. With Williams out and Travis Benjamin (hip) doubtful to play, Keenan Allen, Dontrelle Inman and Geremy Davis will fill out three-receiver […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoTrey Burton, Eddy Pineiro Questionable
Chicago Bears tight end Trey Burton (groin) and kicker Eddy Pineiro (knee) are both listed as questionable for Week 4 against the Vikings. Both players were limited in practice on Friday and have a good shot at suiting up this Sunday. Burton has six catches on seven targets for 25 yards in two games this […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoTaylor Gabriel Ruled Out Against Vikings
Chicago Bears wide receiver Taylor Gabriel (concussion) missed practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 4 against the Vikings. Gabriel scored three touchdowns on Monday night before his injury, but he'll miss at least one game. With him out, Allen Robinson and Anthony Miller will be the top two wideouts, with Javon […]
