Joe Mixon Not Practicing Thursday
Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (ankle) is not practicing on Thursday. Mixon hasn't practiced yet this week and is beginning to look doubtful to play in Week 2 against the 49ers. His practice status on Friday will ultimately tell the story. If he cannot go, Giovani Bernard will step in as the lead back […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoJordan Reed Has A Chance To Return In Week 2
Washington Redskins tight end Jordan Reed (concussion) is practicing again on Thursday, and there is more optimism this week that he will play on Sunday against the Cowboys. Reed continues to deal with injuries and missed the season-opening loss against the Eagles. Vernon Davis stepped in and delivered a touchdown with Reed inactive. Reed remains […]

San Francisco 49ers rookie defensive end Nick Bosa (ankle) is still experiencing soreness from his right ankle sprain and wasn't practicing on Thursday for the second straight day.

Washington Redskins running back Derrius Guice (knee) underwent surgery to trim a torn meniscus on Thursday, according to sources.

Keith Hernandez 5 years agoTavon Austin Dealing With Concussion
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Tavon Austin is dealing with a concussion this week and is in the league's protocol. As a result, Cedric Wilson is getting work in the return game at practice. Austin remains mostly a gadget player for the Cowboys, as he caught his only target for eight yards in the Week 1 […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoWeek 2 Busts? Players To Consider Avoiding
Week 1 of the 2019 regular season started off with a whimper on Thursday, as predicted, as Aaron Rodgers looked shaky in his new offense, albeit against a strong Bears Defense on the road. But boy did Week 1 finish with a bang in Monday night's back-and-forth affair between the Saints and Texans that ended […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoLe'Veon Bell To Get MRI For Shoulder
New York Jets running back Le'Veon Bell (shoulder) will not practice on Thursday and will undergo an MRI exam for his shoulder soreness. Head coach Adam Gase is still hoping that Bell can play on Monday night against the Browns. It's a tough situation with the Jets Week 2 game being on Monday night, and […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoSam Darnold Could Miss Multiple Weeks With Mono
New York Jets head coach Adam Gase said that quarterback Sam Darnold (illness) could miss several weeks with mononucleosis. Darnold has already been ruled out for Week 2's Monday night affair against the Browns. The Jets have already signed Luke Falk to back up Trevor Siemian for however long Darnold will be out. With Siemian […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoDemaryius Thomas Could Play Without Practicing
New York Jets head coach Adam Gase said that he hopes wide receiver Demaryius Thomas (hamstring) can practice by Saturday. Gase also said that Thomas can play on Monday night against Cleveland without practicing. Thomas has yet to play in a regular season game since tearing his Achilles with the Texans last year. If he […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoJosh Doctson Going On Injured Reserve
The Minnesota Vikings are placing wide receiver Josh Doctson (leg) on the Injured Reserve on Thursday, according to a source. The former Redskins first-round pick will be a candidate to return later this year. Doctson has been a first-round bust, but he was hoping to maybe carve out a role in Minnesota's offense this year […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoAlbert Wilson Trending In Wrong Direction
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Albert Wilson (calf) wasn't seen at practice on Thursday for the second straight day. After aggravating his calf injury in the Week 1 blowout to the Ravens, it's looking like Wilson won't be active in Week 2 against the Patriots. You should be making plans to be without him if you […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoQuincy Enunwa's Season Is Over
New York Jets wide receiver Quincy Enunwa (neck) will miss the rest of the season after suffering a neck injury in the Week 1 loss to the Bills. Enunwa also missed the entire 2017 season due to a serious neck issue after injuring himself in training camp, but it's unclear if this new neck issue […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoA.J. Green Out Of Walking Boot
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green (foot) is out of his walking boot and said he ran on Tuesday without any pain. However, there's still no timetable for his return. Green will miss at least a few more weeks, but he should remain stashed in most fantasy formats. Until Green makes his return, Tyler Boyd, […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoJoe Mixon Remains Day-To-Day
Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said that running back Joe Mixon (ankle) remains day-to-day ahead of Week 2 against the 49ers. The goal for Mixon's practice schedule this week is to make sure he's healthy for Sunday. Cincy's lead back is questionable, at best, to suit up this weekend, making him an extremely risky […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoJordan Reed Remains In Concussion Protocol
Washington Redskins tight end Jordan Reed remains in the concussion protocol. The perennially injured Reed missed Week 1 and doesn't look to be on track to returning anytime soon. The veteran Vernon Davis filled in for Reed in the season opener and finished with four receptions for 59 yards and a touchdown in the loss […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoHunter Henry Has Fractured Knee
Los Angeles Chargers tight end Hunter Henry (knee) suffered a tibia plateau fracture to his left knee in the Week 1 overtime win over the Colts. He'll continue to be evaluated, but there is no current timetable for his return. Henry missed all of last season with an injury, too, so he's quickly developing the […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoDontrell Hilliard Out Thursday
Cleveland Browns running back Dontrell Hilliard (concussion) is not practicing on Thursday. Hilliard vultured a touchdown from Nick Chubb in the Week 1 loss to the Titans but was injured shortly thereafter. It's not looking promising for his status heading into Monday night's matchup with the Jets. If he's unable to play in Week 2, […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoDavid Moore Gets In Limited Practice
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver David Moore (shoulder) was limited in practice on Wednesday. It's a good sign for Moore, but he's expected to miss Week 2 and possibly Week 3. In this run-first offense, Moore should be found on the waiver wire right now in most every league. Tyler Lockett (back) is also banged up […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoMichael Badgley Returns To Practice
Los Angeles Chargers kicker Michael Badgley (groin) was limited in practice on Wednesday after being inactive in the season opener against the Colts. Badgley is shaping up to be questionable for Week 2 against the Lions, so he'll once again be a very risky fantasy option. If he sits out his second straight game, Ty […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoTed Ginn Out With Illness Wednesday
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Ted Ginn (illness) did not practice on Wednesday. We're guessing that Ginn will return to practice later this week and suit up in Week 2 on the road against the Rams. The 34-year-old veteran caught all seven of his targets for 101 yards in the thrilling Monday night win over […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoJimmy Graham Limited Wednesday
Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham (finger) was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday. The 32-year-old should be just fine for a divisional showdown at home in Week 2 against the Vikings. Graham caught three of five targets for 30 yards and a touchdown in the opener last Thursday. He's no longer the […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoTyler Lockett Does Not Practice Wednesday
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (back) was among those that didn't practice on Wednesday. Lockett is Seattle's No. 1 wideout, but he caught just one pass on only two targets for 44 yards and a touchdown in Week 1. That's not the kind of volume his fantasy owners were hoping for as their WR2, […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoJuJu Smith-Schuster, James Conner Limited Wednesday
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (toe) and running back James Conner (illness) were both limited in practice on Wednesday. Both players should be fine, barring a setback, to play in Week 2 at home against the Seahawks. Smith-Schuster is a must-start WR1 every time he's active, while Conner is a low-end RB1 if he's […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoCowboys Still Easing Ezekiel Elliott In?
Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott said he thinks he's "ready now for a normal workload" heading into Week 2 against the Redskins, but head coach Jason Garrett pumped the breaks on that a bit. Garrett said the team will be mindful of how little practice time Elliott had this summer because of his holdout. […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoEric Weddle On Track For Rams Defense
Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay expects safety Eric Weddle (head) to be ready for Week 2 against the Saints. Weddle took a knee to the helmet from Christian McCaffrey in the season opener and missed the rest of the game. The Rams certainly need Weddle's help in the secondary with Drew Brees and […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoJets Defense Dealing With Multiple Injuries
New York Jets linebacker C.J. Mosley (groin) and rookie defensive lineman Quinnen Williams (ankle) are both making good progress despite not practicing on Wednesday, according to head coach Adam Gase. “It’s giving us hope with both those guys,” Gase said. “There’s a still a chance for those guys to play on Monday.” Safety Jamal Adams […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoAdrian Peterson To Start Against Cowboys
Washington Redskins head coach Jay Gruden said on Wednesday that running back Adrian Peterson will get the start in Week 2 against the Cowboys with Derrius Guice (knee) expected to miss a few weeks. Peterson was a healthy inactive in Week 1, but Washington will ride the future Hall of Famer until Guice is healthy […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoWill Dissly Good To Go For Week 2
Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said that tight end Will Dissly (knee) is good to go for Week 2 against the Steelers after leaving the Week 1 game with a knee injury. Dissly caught one of his two targets for 12 yards before leaving the game last Sunday. In a run-first offense that rarely […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoKeke Coutee Returns To Practice Wednesday
Houston Texans wide receiver Keke Coutee (ankle) is practicing on Wednesday after sitting out of Week 1 on Monday night against the Saints. It means that Coutee should be able to make his season debut this Sunday against the Jaguars, although you never know with Coutee. While he was trying to get healthy, Houston picked […]
Keith Hernandez 5 years agoPatrick Mahomes Practicing Wednesday
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (ankle) is practicing on Wednesday, and head coach Andy Reid said "he feels pretty good."
