Darren Sproles To Practice Thursday
Philadelphia Eagles running back Darren Sproles (hamstring) will get some work in practice on Thursday, according to head coach Doug Pederson. Sproles hasn't played since the season opener and is unlikely to have much of a role behind rookie Josh Adams and Corey Clement even if he's active on Monday night against the Redskins. Sproles […]

New York Jets rookie quarterback Sam Darnold (foot) is hopeful that he can return to play in Week 13 against the Titans after taking part in positional drills on Wednesday for the first time since straining his right foot in Week 9. “Coming back after today and actually practicing on it, being on it today […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoEvan Engram Unlikely To Face Bears
New York Giants head coach Pat Shurmur said that tight end Evan Engram (hamstring) will not practice on Thursday, making it unlikely he'll suit up in Week 13 against the Bears. Engram tweaked his hamstring in pregame warmups last week. He was active but didn't play a single snap. Plan to be without him this […]

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Devin Funchess (back) is set to return to practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday.

The Chicago Bears plan to rest quarterback Mitch Trubisky (shoulder) for the second straight game in Week 13 against the Giants despite the fact that he was limited in practice on Wednesday, according to sources.

Keith Hernandez 6 years agoFranmil Reyes To Have Surgery Thursday
Updating a previous report, San Diego Padres outfielder Franmil Reyes (knee) will have surgery on Thursday to fix a torn meniscus in his right knee. His expected recovery time will be between four and eight weeks, so he should be ready in time for spring training. Reyes had an 11-game hitting streak going in the […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoFranmil Reyes To Have Knee Examined
San Diego Padres outfielder Franmil Reyes (knee) returned to San Diego to have his right knee examined after an injury that has sidelined him for more than a week during the Dominican winter league.

Keith Hernandez 6 years agoBlue Jays Could Trade Russell Martin
The Toronto Blue Jays have discussed trading catcher Russell Martin, according to league sources. Toronto will likely have to eat much of the remaining money on Martin's final year of his deal, as he hit a measly .194/.338/.325 with 10 home runs and 25 RBI in 289 at-bats in 2018. Martin will be 36 years […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoPirates Have Discussed Trading Francisco Cervelli
The Pittsburgh Pirates have discussed trading catcher Francisco Cervelli, according to league sources. Even with a decent amount of catching available in the offseason, Cervelli will be attractive to teams because of his high on-base percentage and makeup behind the dish. He hit .259/.378/.431 with a career-high 12 home runs and 57 RBI in 104 […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoKenneth Dixon Could Enter Mix In Week 13
With Baltimore Ravens running backs Gus Edwards (ankle) and Alex Collins (foot) both up in the air for Week 13 against the Falcons and with Javorius Allen getting very little playing time, the Ravens could activate Kenneth Dixon (knee) off Injured Reserve for this weekend. Dixon has been on IR all year, but this is […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoMatt Breida, Pierre Garcon Limited Wednesday
San Francisco 49ers running back Matt Breida (ankle) and wide receiver Pierre Garcon (knee) were both limited in practice on Wednesday. Breida has been hampered by injuries all year but continues to play. He has actually looked more fresh in recent weeks than earlier this year, though, and he's gone over 100 yards on the […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoMarquise Goodwin Still Away From Team
San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (personal) did not practice on Wednesday and remains away from the team after missing Week 12 due to personal reasons. Goodwin remains up in the air for Week 13 against the Seahawks, making him very risky for fantasy purposes. If he misses his second straight game, Kendrick Bourne […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoJ.D. McKissic Activated From Injured Reserve
The Seattle Seahawks activated running back J.D. McKissic (foot) from Injured Reserve on Wednesday. McKissic hasn't played at all this year after fracturing a bone on the outside of his foot in the preseason. His fracture was a Jones fracture. He had 453 combined yards in 2017 but will be buried on the depth chart […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoKeke Coutee At Practice Wednesday
Houston Texans rookie wide receiver Keke Coutee (hamstring) was limited in practice on Wednesday after tweaking his hamstring in the Monday night win over the Titans. Coutee had two catches for just 14 yards on Monday. It's the third time this year he's dealt with a hamstring setback, and he's no lock to play in […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoEagles Still Using Running-Back-By-Committee
Philadelphia Eagles running backs coach Duce Staley said that running back Josh Adams is still part of a running-back-by-committee approach. “It’s still a running back by committee ... It’s all about the hot hand," Staley said. While Corey Clement has been involved, Adams continues to see his role increase in recent weeks, and he saw […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoTajae Sharpe On Week 13 Injury Report
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Tajae Sharpe (ankle) is on the Week 13 injury report and was limited in practice on Wednesday. Sharpe doesn't appear to be in danger of missing Week 13 against the Jets. He wasn't targeted a single time in Monday night's loss to the Texans, though, and is in danger of losing […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoTaywan Taylor Practicing In Full
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Taywan Taylor (foot) practiced in full on Wednesday. Taylor hasn't played since injuring himself on Monday night against the Cowboys on Nov. 5, but he appears on track to return in Week 13 against the Jets. Taylor has 21 catches for 214 yards and a touchdown this year and isn't on […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoColts Sign Clive Walford
The Indianapolis Colts signed free-agent tight end Clive Walford on Wednesday with Jack Doyle going on Injured Reserve, according to a source. Eric Ebron, Mo Alie-Cox and Erik Swoope are all banged up, so Walford will give the team some depth and insurance. Walford hasn't played at all in 2018 and had just nine catches […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoEquanimeous St. Brown Limited In Practice
Green Bay Packers rookie wide receiver Equanimeous St. Brown (elbow) was limited in practice on Wednesday. Brown was injured on Sunday night and didn't finish out the game.

Keith Hernandez 6 years agoCalvin Ridley Puts In Limited Practice
Atlanta Falcons rookie wide receiver Calvin Ridley (ankle, elbow) was limited in practice on Wednesday. Ridley played in Week 12 and had a season-high eight catches on 13 targets for 93 yards and his eighth touchdown of the season. He's having an incredible rookie year as the No. 2 behind Julio Jones, although he could […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoGus Edwards Misses Practice Wednesday
Baltimore Ravens running back Gus Edwards (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. With Alex Collins (foot) day-to-day, Edwards is expected to be fine for Week 13 against the Falcons and should remain the lead back. Against a Falcons team that bleeds fantasy points to opposing running backs, Edwards has RB2 upside. He has back-to-back 100-yard […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoPatrick Corbin Meets With Nationals
Free-agent starting pitcher Patrick Corbin met with the Washington Nationals on Wednesday. The most sought after free-agent starter is making the rounds and is highly coveted by most teams this winter. The left-hander was a fantasy ace in 2018 by going 11-7 with a 3.15 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 246 strikeouts in 33 starts. Washington's […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoRob Gronkowski Off Injury Report
New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski (ankle, back) practiced in full on Wednesday and was taken off the Week 13 injury report. Gronk returned off the bye in Week 12 to catch three passes for 56 yards and his second touchdown of the season. Against Minnesota this weekend, Gronkowski will remain an elite TE1.
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoChad Williams Gets In Limited Practice
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Chad Williams (ankle) was limited in practice on Wednesday. The second-year wideout hasn't played since Oct. 28 and isn't a lock to return in Week 13 against the Packers. In one of the league's worst overall offenses, Williams would be, at best, the No. 3 receiver behind Larry Fitzgerald and rookie […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoRandall Cobb Limited Wednesday
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Randall Cobb (hamstring) was limited in practice on Wednesday after sitting out in Week 12. Cobb was limited in practice all of last week but still didn't play against the Vikings.

Keith Hernandez 6 years agoStefon Diggs Sits Out Wednesday
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Stefon Diggs (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. Diggs sat out on Nov. 4 with bruised ribs but has played in the last two games and had a healthy eight catches for 77 yards and a touchdown while playing 66 of 70 offensive snaps in Week 12. The Vikings are likely […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoVikings Hoping Xavier Rhodes Will Play
Minnesota Vikings cornerback Xavier Rhodes (hamstring) sat out of practice on Wednesday with a right hamstring injury, but head coach Mike Zimmer is hopeful that Rhodes will be able to play in Week 13 against the Patriots.

Keith Hernandez 6 years agoEli Rogers Returns To Practice
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Eli Rogers (knee) returned to practice on Wednesday, starting the team's 21-day window to activate him from the Physically Unable to Perform list. Rogers is working his way back from a torn ACL last year and shouldn't be on anyone's fantasy radar the rest of the way.
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoVance McDonald Held Out Wednesday
Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Vance McDonald (hip) was held out of practice on Wednesday. McDonald caught three of five targets for 27 yards in the Week 12 loss to the Broncos and is in danger of missing the Sunday night game against the Chargers. McDonald will be extremely risky if he's questionable for the Sunday […]

The Chicago Cubs acquired infielder Ronald Torreyes from the Yankees on Wednesday in exchange for a player to be named later or cash considerations. The 26-year-old Torreyes spent the last three years with New York and hit .280 in 41 games in 2018, but he was designated for assignment earlier this week. He can play […]
