Zay Jones Returns Sunday Afternoon

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Zay Jones (knee) exited in the first half of Sunday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs. The team listed him as questionable, but he was able to return to the field in the second half. Jones will continue to operate behind Calvin Ridley and Christian Kirk going forward.

David Montgomery Carted To Locker Room Sunday

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery (right knee) was carted to the locker room in the second half of Sunday's game versus the Seattle Seahawks.

Brandin Cooks Officially Inactive Sunday

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Brandin Cooks (knee) is officially inactive for Week 2 versus the New York Jets. The veteran played 59 percent of offensive snaps in his Cowboys debut last week, hauling in two of four targets for 22 yards. Michael Gallup, Jake Ferguson, and Jalen Tolbert should see more opportunities in Cooks' absence, […]

Breece Hall Suiting Up In Week 2

New York Jets running back Breece Hall (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys. He had been listed as questionable but was expected to play after practicing in full on Friday. The expectation is that Hall will have some sort of snap count, similar to Week 1. Of course, that didn't hold […]

Budda Baker Inactive For Week 2

Arizona Cardinals safety Budda Baker (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game against the New York Giants. He had been listed as questionable after popping up on the injury report Friday. His absence will be felt as the Cardinals enter Week 2 as underdogs. Andre Chachere is expected to start at free safety in his absence.

Wan'Dale Robinson, Azeez Ojulari Inactive Sunday

New York Giants wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson (knee) and defensive end Azeez Ojulari (hamstring) are inactive for Week 2 versus the Arizona Cardinals.

Odell Beckham Jr. Won't Return In Week 2

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (ankle) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals. He exited after catching three passes for 29 yards.

Puka Nacua Officially Active Sunday

Austin Ekeler Could Return In Week 3

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler (ankle) "has a chance" to play in Week 3, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud (shoulder) is expected to play against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 2 despite being listed as questionable, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Mark Andrews Expected To Play In Week 2

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews (quad) is expected to play against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday despite being listed as questionable, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Should I Start Nico Collins in Week 2? WR Fantasy Football Rankings Analysis

The general rule of thumb is to avoid players on bad offenses, but there are times where exceptions can be made.

Heading into Week 2, it's time for fantasy football […]

Should I Start Tyler Allgeier in Week 2? RB Fantasy Football Rankings Analysis

After some questions about how the Atlanta Falcons would distribute opportunities among their running backs, fantasy football managers gained some much-needed clarity in Week 1 and should view both Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier as fantasy-relevant options ahead of Week 2.

Chad Ryland - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New England Patriots kicker Chad Ryland is not a viable fantasy option heading into Week 2 versus the Miami Dolphins. The team transitioned from veteran Nick Folk to Ryland at the end of training camp, and the rookie had a quiet debut in Week 1, going 2-for-2 on extra points while never attempting a field […]

Patriots Defense Difficult To Trust In Week 2

The New England Patriots' defense is worth avoiding in fantasy football ahead of their Week 2 clash with the Miami Dolphins. Although the Patriots' defense is normally considered one of the premier units in football, their upcoming matchup offers a daunting task. Miami quarterback Tua Tagovailoa tossed for 466 yards last Sunday while receiver Tyreek […]

Mike Gesicki - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New England Patriots tight end Mike Gesicki gets his chance for a revenge game on Sunday Night Football versus the Miami Dolphins. However, the 27-year-old was clearly New England's No. 2 tight end behind Hunter Henry last week, so just how much Gesicki can get involved in Week 2 remains to be seen. He's a […]

Hunter Henry - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry has emerged as a top-12 option in fantasy football. The 28-year-old was a reliable target for Mac Jones last Sunday, hauling in five of six targets for 56 yards and a touchdown. In the Week 2 edition of Monday Night Football, he'll face the Miami Dolphins in what […]

Kendrick Bourne - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New England Patriots wide receiver Kendrick Bourne is on the fantasy radar ahead of Sunday Night Football versus the Miami Dolphins. Bourne operated as the Patriots' top receiver last week, hauling in six of 11 targets for 64 yards and two touchdowns. He's squarely in the mix to be the team's top option again in […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New England Patriots wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster should be benched in most fantasy leagues ahead of Sunday Night Football versus the Miami Dolphins. Originally signed to be New England's No. 1 receiver, Smith-Schuster was out-performed by Kendrick Bourne and Demario Douglas last week, and new reports indicate the former Steeler and Chief has slid down […]

Ezekiel Elliott - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New England Patriots running back Ezekiel Elliott will continue to operate behind Rhamondre Stevenson on Sunday night versus Miami. With a fairly restricted workload, his fantasy production will likely depend on finding the end zone. While signed to take New England's short-yardage carries, Elliott did lose a fumble last week, which could put him in […]

Rhamondre Stevenson - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson might lose some rushing opportunities to Ezekiel Elliott versus Miami on Sunday night, but he'll still be called upon for a significant role in the passing attack. Stevenson hauled in all six of his targets last week and has been the Patriots' most reliable pass-catcher at times over […]

Mac Jones - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones is a viable, mid-range QB2 in fantasy football ahead of this week's game versus the Miami Dolphins. Jones found success while facing a heavy workload last Sunday, completing 35 of 54 passes for 316 yards, three touchdowns, and one interception. He'll likely approach 50 attempts again this week as […]

Brian Kalmer Hitting The Ball Exceptionally Well

Chicago Cubs first base prospect Brian Kalmer was an 18th-round pick just two months ago and has looked absolutely phenomenal in his limited pro action. Selected out of Gonzaga as a third baseman, Kalmer has primarily played first so far, but the Cubs have plenty of time to experiment with his defensive profile. Offensively, there's […]

Spencer Schwellenbach Tosses Six Perfect Frames

Atlanta Braves minor leaguer Spencer Schwellenbach has emerged as one of the club's top pitching prospects. Although the start of his pro career was delayed due to Tommy John surgery, he came out of his recovery with his fastball peaking at an impressive 98 mph. He consistently demonstrates impressive control and has developed both his […]

Samuel Basallo Hits Three Homers In Big Week

Baltimore Orioles 19-year-old catcher Samuel Basallo has emerged as an impressive prospect with incredible bat speed and power. The Dominican Republic native is definitely a bat-first minor leaguer, and the Orioles have to be impressed by the decrease in his K/BB rate this season. Defensively, his arm strength and pop time are a little underwhelming. […]

Adam Macko Dominant When Healthy

Toronto Blue Jays pitching prospect Adam Macko is an impressive starter who has used 2023 to show what he can do when healthy, given the fact that he made just 17 outings over the two seasons prior. Born in Slovakia, the southpaw went to high school in Alberta before the Mariners made him their seventh-round […]

Luis Verdugo Making Strides Offensively

Chicago Cubs third base prospect Luis Verdugo signed with the organization out of Mexico in 2017. Widely regarded as a talented defender, the 22-year-old has solidified himself as a long-term third baseman with impressive glovework, especially on challenging hops at the hot corner. On offense, there are real doubts about his bat and discipline, though […]
