Dodgers Exercise Dave Roberts' Option
The Los Angeles Dodgers exercised manager Dave Roberts' option for the 2019 season on Wednesday, according to president Andrew Friedman. However, the team still expects to sign Roberts to a long-term deal soon. The option buys the team more time to negotiate with Roberts on an extension. Roberts has led the Dodgers to three straight […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoDoug Martin Finds Himself On Injury Report
Oakland Raiders running back Doug Martin (hip) is on the injury report for Week 10 and got in a limited practice on Wednesday. Martin was dinged up last Thursday but played the entire game and should be good to go in Week 10 against the Chargers. The 29-year-old has seen double-digit carries in the two […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoGary Sanchez Undergoing Shoulder Procedure
New York Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said that catcher Gary Sanchez (shoulder) is having surgery on his left shoulder. The shoulder has been bothering Sanchez since 2017. The 25-year-old was one of the first catchers off the board in fantasy drafts this year, but he didn't live up to his lofty price. He played […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoDoug Baldwin Sits Out Wednesday
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin (groin) sat out of practice on Wednesday with a groin injury, which is a new injury for him after he's dealt with knee issues most of the year. It's not what his fantasy owners want to see, but we'll have to wait and see what he does in practice […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoMatt Holliday Intends To Play In 2019
Free-agent outfielder Matt Holliday has intentions of playing in 2019. Holliday will be 39 heading into next season and will be more attractive to American League teams in a designated hitter role. In just 53 at-bats over 25 games for the Rockies in 2018, he hit .283/.415/.434 with two home runs and three RBI. Holliday […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoJimmy Graham Sits Out Wednesday
Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham (knee) did not take part in practice on Wednesday. Graham has typically been rested in practice early in the week, so we wouldn't read too much into this. Expect him to suit up in Week 10 against the Dolphins. The 31-year-old had four catches for 55 yards and […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoMohamed Sanu, Matt Bryant Miss Practice
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Mohamed Sanu (hip) and kicker Matt Bryant (hamstring) were not practicing on Wednesday. Sanu has been on the injury report in recent weeks but hasn't missed any time. He had a stretch where he scored three touchdowns in four games but has cooled off since as rookie Calvin Ridley becomes a […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoFrancisco Rodriguez Still Wishes To Play
Free-agent relief pitcher Francisco Rodriguez said he wants to pitch in 2019, according to a source. K-Rod, as he's been come to be known, didn't pitch at all in the big leagues in 2018 but was successful in a stint in independent ball. The right-hander has plenty of closing experience in the big leagues since […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoDerek Anderson, Chris Ivory, Charles Clay Not Practicing
Buffalo Bills quarterback Derek Anderson (concussion), running back Chris Ivory (shoulder) and tight end Charles Clay (hamstring) are not practicing on Wednesday. Anderson remains in the concussion protocol but will get the start against the Jets if he is cleared later this week as long as rookie Josh Allen (elbow) isn't given the go-ahead to […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoRyan Grant, Robert Turbin On Track To Return
Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Ryan Grant (ankle) and running back Robert Turbin (shoulder) were both limited in practice on Wednesday. It looks like the bye week treated them well and they appear to be on track to play in Week 10 against the Jaguars. Grant hasn't played since Oct. 14 and will likely be behind […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoA.J. Bouye Won't Play In Week 10
Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback A.J. Bouye (calf) said he will not play in Week 10 against the Colts. It's disappointing that Bouye wasn't able to return following the team's bye week. It's a slight boost to Colts quarterback Andrew Luck's matchup and his receivers as they come off their bye week as well.
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoKelvin Benjamin Dealing With Knee Injury
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Kelvin Benjamin (knee) was on the injury report for Week 10 and was listed as limited in practice on Wednesday. It's a new injury for Benjamin, but it doesn't look serious enough to keep him out against the Jets this Sunday. There's a chance that rookie quarterback Josh Allen (elbow) will […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoTexans Claim DeAndre Carter, Waive Tyler Ervin
The Houston Texans claimed wide receiver Deandre Carter off waivers from the Eagles on Wednesday and waived running back Tyler Ervin in a corresponding move, according to a source. Carter will help provide depth behind DeAndre Hopkins, Demaryius Thomas, Keke Coutee and Vyncint Smith and will have extra time to learn the offense during Houston's […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoLimited Practice For Chad Williams
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Chad Williams (ankle) was working off to the side in practice on Wednesday. Coming off the bye week, Williams should be able to suit up in Week 10 against the Chiefs. He doesn't have more than four catches or 34 yards in a single game this year and is behind rookie […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoTajae Sharpe Puts In Limited Practice
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Tajae Sharpe (ankle) was limited in practice on Wednesday. Sharpe appeared to injure himself in pre-game workouts on Monday night, but he played the entire game. He caught just one pass for no gain in the game, however, and isn't much of a fantasy option to begin with. Sharpe has 17 […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoTaywan Taylor Sitting Out Wednesday
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Taywan Taylor (foot) did not practice on Wednesday. Taylor is in danger of missing Week 10 against the Patriots. He has 21 catches on 30 targets this year for 214 yards and hasn't scored since Sept. 16. Taylor is likely on the waiver wire in most leagues. If he sits out […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoKerryon Johnson, LeGarrette Blount, Luke Willson Limited
Detroit Lions running backs Kerryon Johnson (ankle) and LeGarrette Blount (knee) and tight end Luke Willson (shoulder) are all on the Week 10 injury report and were limited in practice on Wednesday. None of them would appear to be in danger of sitting out against the Bears. Johnson wasn't involved in the passing game last […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoRob Gronkowski, Sony Michel Limited Wednesday
New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski (ankle, back) and rookie running back Sony Michel (knee) were both limited in practice on Wednesday. Gronkowski hasn't found the end zone or gone over 100 yards since the season opener and injuries continue to be an issue, as he's missed two of the last three games. Owners […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoAllen Robinson, Khalil Mack Practicing In Full
Chicago Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson (groin) and defensive end Khalil Mack (ankle) both practiced in full on Wednesday and should be ready to return in Week 10 against the Lions after missing two straight games. Having them both back will be a big boost to both the offense and defense. A-Rob will be a […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoCameron Meredith Doesn't Practice Wednesday
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Cameron Meredith (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. It doesn't seem as though Meredith's knee is 100 percent yet after he missed all of last season. He seemed to be turning the corner when he caught all five of his passes for 71 yards on Oct. 8, but since then […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoJordan Reed Listed With Back Injury
Washington Redskins tight end Jordan Reed (back) was limited in practice on Wednesday. He was dealing with a neck injury last week, but it's unclear if this is related. It always seems to be something with Reed, but surprisingly he hasn't missed any games this year. Unfortunately for his fantasy owners, Reed has yet to […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoJamison Crowder, Chris Thompson Still Out Of Practice
Washington Redskins wide receiver Jamison Crowder (ankle) and running back Chris Thompson (rib) did not practice on Wednesday. Both Crowder and Thompson have missed multiple games due to injuries this year and are two of the big reasons why this offense has yet to really get off the ground. Neither is off to a good […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoMike Evans, Ronald Jones II Miss Practice
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (knee) and rookie running back Ronald Jones II (hamstring) did not practice on Wednesday. Evans also sat out early last week in practice but played and disappointed in Week 9 with just one catch for 16 yards on 10 targets. He's had double-digit targets in each of the […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoLeonard Fournette Practicing In Full Wednesday
Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) is practicing in full on Wednesday. Fournette, one of the biggest fantasy busts of the year, has played in parts of just two games this year. He had the bye week to heal, though, and looks to be on track to return in Week 10 against the Colts. […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoAstros, Mets Interested In Yasmani Grandal
The Houston Astros and New York Mets are among the teams interested in free-agent catcher Yasmani Grandal, according to a source. However, Grandal's qualifying offer is a potential barrier. Any team that signs Grandal this winter must fork over draft-pick compensation to the Dodgers. For the second straight year, Grandal's defensive shortcomings (along with a […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoAngels Showing Interest In Wilson Ramos
The Los Angeles Angels are among five teams that are interested in signing free-agent catcher Wilson Ramos, according to a person familiar with the situation but not authorized to speak publicly. Ramos is a nine-year veteran who was an All-Star for the second time in his career in 2018, as he hit .306 with 15 […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoVikings Claim Ameer Abdullah Off Waivers
The Minnesota Vikings claimed running back Ameer Abdullah off waivers from the Lions on Wednesday, according to a source. Abdullah is basically a forgotten man after he was active for just three games with Detroit this year, but he'll help boost Minnesota's running back depth with rookie Roc Thomas injured. Still, Abdullah will face long […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoJosh McCown To Start Against Bills
With New York Jets rookie quarterback Sam Darnold (foot) dealing with a foot sprain, veteran Josh McCown will get the start in Week 10 against the Bills, according to a source. Darnold will be re-evaluated after the Week 11 bye, but his status for Week 12 is "uncertain" for now. Consider Darnold week-to-week for now. […]

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker (knee) is on the Week 10 injury report but took part in a full practice on Wednesday. Tight end A.J. Derby (foot) also practiced in full after missing several weeks. Parker blew up for six catches and 134 yards two weeks ago, but he went back to being a […]
Keith Hernandez 6 years agoChris Carson Won't Practice Wednesday
Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said that running back Chris Carson (hip, thigh) will not practice on Wednesday.
