D'Onta Foreman Not A Lock To Play This Year
Although Houston Texans running back D'Onta Foreman (Achilles) said he's "confident" he'll play again this year, head coach Bill O'Brien isn't so certain. "Can he carry the ball more than two times in a row without having to go get a drink of water?" O'Brien said. "What type of shape is he in?" Foreman hasn't […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoJamison Crowder, Chris Thompson Miss Practice
Washington Redskins head coach Jay Gruden said wide receiver Jamison Crowder (ankle) and running back Chris Thompson (ribs) both missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Both players have missed multiple games this year, and Crowder has been out for well over a month with no sign of a return. With Paul Richardson […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoMatt Bryant Practices In Full
Atlanta Falcons kicker Matt Bryant (hamstring) put in a full practice on Thursday. Barring any setbacks, it looks like Bryant will be back in action for the first time since he aggravated his hamstring on Oct. 14 this Sunday against the Cowboys. The ageless wonder has made all nine of his field-goal tries this year […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoTrevor Davis Activated From Injured Reserve
The Green Bay Packers activated wide receiver Trevor Davis (hamstring) from Injured Reserve on Thursday, and he may help in the return game for the rest of the season. The 25-year-old has yet to play this year and has only eight receptions on 13 targets for 94 yards and a touchdown in 27 games in […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoTaywan Taylor Sitting Out Again Thursday
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Taywan Taylor (foot) remains out of practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Taylor sat out in Week 10 and doesn't look close to returning after injuring himself in Week 9. He wasn't a fantasy factor to begin with and remains on the waiver wire. In his absence, Corey Davis […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoJoey Bosa Unsure If He'll Play In Week 11
Los Angeles Chargers defensive end Joey Bosa (foot), who returned to a limited practice on Wednesday, is unsure if he'll make his season debut in Week 11 against the Broncos. "It’s really not decided yet. We’re continuing with the plan, and that’s to practice this week. We’ll assess it and see how it feels on […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoMike Wallace No Longer In Walking Boot
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Mike Wallace (leg) said he had his walking boot removed two days ago, but he isn't running yet. There remains no timetable for his return. Wallace broke his fibula earlier this year and is no lock to return to the Eagles. Even if he does, it's highly unlikely that he'll be […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoDustin Hopkins Remains Absent Thursday
Washington Redskins kicker Dustin Hopkins (groin) missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Head coach Jay Gruden said the big test will come on Friday, when Hopkins typically kicks. It's looking increasingly unlikely that Hopkins will play in Week 11 against the Texans, but we won't know until Friday. If he sits out, […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoJoe Mixon Limited In Practice Thursday
Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (knee) was limited in practice on Thursday after not being on the injury report on Wednesday. It's a little concerning after Mixon missed time with a knee sprain earlier this year, but he should be able to play in Week 11 in a big divisional matchup with the Ravens. […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoJoe Flacco, Lamar Jackson Out Thursday
Baltimore Ravens quarterbacks Joe Flacco (hip) and rookie Lamar Jackson (illness) were both absent at practice on Thursday. Robert Griffin III was the only quarterback practicing. Flacco has missed two practices this week and appears to be on the wrong side of questionable for a big divisional matchup against the Bengals on Sunday. This could […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoChris Godwin Remains Sidelined Thursday
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (ankle) remained out of practice for the second straight day Thursday. It's not looking good for Godwin's availability in a nice matchup in Week 11 against the Giants. It's a shame, too, as Godwin is looking to improve on his seven-catch, 103-yard performance last Sunday. If he's forced […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoFernando Tatis Jr. Homers In Winter Ball
San Diego Padres infield prospect Fernando Tatis Jr. (thumb), who suffered an avulsion fracture in his left thumb in the minor leagues in July, hit a home run in his first at-bat in winter ball for Estrella in the Dominican Republic. The 19-year-old shortstop is ranked as the No. 2 prospect in all of baseball […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoJonathan Stewart Resumes Practicing
New York Giants running back Jonathan Stewart (foot) has resumed practicing, which means the Giants can activate him from Injured Reserve within the next 21 days. The 31-year-old averaged just 2.8 yards per carry on six attempts in three games before being injured earlier this year. If he does return for the stretch run, J-Stew […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoSammy Watkins Will Practice Thursday
Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said that wide receiver Sammy Watkins (foot) will practice on Thursday.

Keith Hernandez 6 years agoShawn Kelley Wants To Keep Playing
Oakland Athletics free-agent relief pitcher Shawn Kelley has decided against retiring and wants to play a few more years, according to his agent, Mike McCann. The 34-year-old right-hander posted a nice 2.16 ERA in 19 outings with the A's after coming over on a waiver claim from the Nationals. Overall, Kelley had a 2.94 ERA, […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoA's Interested In Reunion With Kurt Suzuki
The Oakland Athletics are interested in signing free-agent catcher Kurt Suzuki, as their primary catcher in 2018, Jonathan Lucroy, is also a free agent. The 35-year-old Suzuki debuted with Oakland in 2007 and spent five seasons with them until being traded to the Nationals in 2012. He was an All-Star in 2014 with Minnesota and […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoMarvin Jones, Michael Roberts Miss Practice Again
Detroit Lions wide receiver Marvin Jones (knee) and tight end Michael Roberts (shoulder) both missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. It's not a good sign for either player, but they could still play if they get in a practice on Friday. Jones' owners must formulate a backup plan just in case he […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoMatt Bryant To Practice Thursday
Atlanta Falcons kicker Matt Bryant (hamstring) will kick in practice on Thursday. Bryant hasn't been active in a game since Oct. 14, but he's made all nine of his field goals and 16 of 17 extra points this year. When healthy, the 43-year-old is one of the better fantasy options. If he can't go again […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoDalvin Cook Won't Be Limited
Minnesota Vikings offensive coordinator John DeFilippo said that running back Dalvin Cook (hamstring) is a full-go heading into Week 11 against the Bears on Sunday night. Cook ran the ball 10 times for 89 yards and caught four passes for 20 yards in Week 9 and had the bye week to rest up further, so […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoK.J. Wright Doubtful For Thursday Night
Seattle Seahawks linebacker K.J. Wright (knee) is doubtful to play on Thursday night against the Packers. Wright wants to make sure he's 100 percent healthy for the stretch run of the season. He had arthroscopic knee surgery in the last week of August and missed the first six games of the season. Wright has played […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoTy Montgomery's Playing Time Depends On Practice
Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said how much running back Ty Montgomery plays in his team debut in Week 11 against the Bengals depends on what he shows in practice this week. Montgomery was a healthy scratch in Week 9 and the team was off in Week 10. “I’m very confident he could go […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoEric Ebron Seeing Snap Count Plummet
Indianapolis Colts tight end Eric Ebron is having an excellent season in his first year with the Colts, ranking first on the team in catches (39), yards (463) and touchdowns (10).

Keith Hernandez 6 years agoAdrian Peterson Feels Refreshed
Washington Redskins running back Adrian Peterson, who has been bothered by ankle and shoulder injuries for the last few weeks, said he is feeling better than he has in quite some time this week. The Redskins have been limiting the veteran back in practices early in the week as a result. “I’m feeling good. Last […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoA.J. Green Not Practicing Thursday
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green (toe) is not practicing on Thursday. Although head coach Marvin Lewis is holding out hope that Green can play in Week 11 against the Ravens, it seems like a long shot that Green will suit up. He could miss more time as well following this week. Until Green is […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoTorrey Smith Works On Side Wednesday
Carolina Panthers wide receiver Torrey Smith (knee), who officially did not practice on Wednesday, worked on the side for the first time in a month. It's progress for Smith, but he's still not expected to play in Week 11 against the Lions. In his absence, rookie D.J. Moore and Curtis Samuel have seen more action, […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoJacob deGrom Awarded Cy Young In NL
New York Mets starting pitcher Jacob deGrom was named the 2018 National League Cy Young on Wednesday, beating out Nationals ace Max Scherzer and Phillies starter Aaron Nola for the award.

Tampa Bay Rays starting pitcher Blake Snell was named the 2018 American League Cy Young winner on Wednesday. Snell beat out Astros starter Justin Verlander and Indians ace Corey Kluber for the award.

Keith Hernandez 6 years agoAlex Cora Receives One-Year Extension
The Boston Red Sox signed manager Alex Cora to a one-year contract extension through the 2021 season. The deal includes a team option for the 2022 season. Cora more than deserved it after leading the team to 108 wins in the regular season and a World Series title in his first year at the helm. […]

The Carolina Panthers claimed running back Kenjon Barner off waivers from the Patriots on Wednesday.

Keith Hernandez 6 years agoTrey Quinn Activated From Injured Reserve
The Washington Redskins activated rookie wide receiver Trey Quinn (ankle) from Injured Reserve on Wednesday and signed cornerback Joshua Holsey to the practice squad.
