Mike Evans, Julio Jones Return To Practice

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receivers Mike Evans (calf) and Julio Jones (knee) both returned to practice on Friday. The duo was absent from practice on Thursday, but their return to the field suggests both veteran receivers should play in Week 2 against the Saints. With Chris Godwin (hamstring) looking like a longshot to play, Evans […]

Allen Lazard Taking Team Reps Friday

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard (ankle), who practiced in a limited capacity on Wednesday and Thursday, is expected to progress through team reps during Friday's practice. This is another step in the right direction for Lazard after he did not play in Week 1. Assuming he suits up in Week 2, the 26-year-old […]

Tee Higgins Returns To Practice Friday

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins (concussion, personal) returned to practice on Friday. The third-year wideout was limited on Wednesday due to his head injury and absent on Thursday to attend his father's funeral, but his return to the practice field to close out the week suggests he's on track to play in Week 2. […]

Mac Jones Practicing Again Friday

New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones (illness, back) returned to practice on Friday. He had been a non-participant on Thursday. Jones, who dealt with back spasms in Week 1, also came down with a stomach issue in the middle of the week. However, now that he's back on the practice field, it appears he'll be […]

Cole Beasley Fielding Contract Offers

Free-agent wide receiver Cole Beasley "is drawing serious interest and contract offers from multiple NFL teams," according to Aaron Wilson of Pro Football Network. The veteran slot receiver is expected to take his time and wait until the right opportunity presents itself. Beasley, 33, played in 16 games for the Bills last season, catching 82 […]

Shaquille Leonard, Alec Pierce Ruled Out For Week 2

Indianapolis Colts linebacker Shaquille Leonard (back) and wide receiver Alec Pierce (concussion) have both been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game versus the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Justin Herbert's Rib X-Rays Were Negative

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert (rib) avoided any broken bones following Thursday night's game. According to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network, Herbert's X-rays came back negative. As a result, the third-string quarterback will undergo further testing. The injury clearly bothered Herbert in Week 2, but he only missed one offensive snap. Los Angeles doesn't […]

Rondale Moore, Andy Isabella Ruled Out For Week 2

Arizona Cardinals wide receivers Rondale Moore (hamstring) and Andy Isabella (back) have both been ruled out ahead of Week 2. With these wideouts sidelined and DeAndre Hopkins suspended, Arizona will proceed with Marquise Brown, A.J. Green, Greg Dortch, and Zach Ertz headlining the passing game. Brown and Ertz are both worth starting against a suspect […]

Michael Pittman Jr. Questionable For Week 2

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. (quadriceps) is listed as questionable for Week 2, head coach Frank Reich announced. Pittman aggravated the injury on Wednesday and was limited in practice. Then, he was a non-participant on Thursday.

Ryan Webb Impressing In Single-A

Cleveland Guardians pitching prospect Ryan  Webb is a 24-year-old southpaw who was selected in the fourth round of the 2021 draft. He has looked solid through his first season of pro ball, though he does need to work on reducing his walk rate. The Roswell, Ga., native boasts a mid-90s fastball and has a great […]

Oscar Santos Showing Improvement In Minors

Arizona Diamondbacks minor league catcher Oscar Santos hasn't done a whole lot to impress this season, hitting just .206 with a miserable 40.6 percent strikeout rate. He hasn't shown off much power, lacks speed, and has thrown out just 18.2 percent of base-stealers. The 21-year-old has been in Single-A since last September and doesn't seem […]

Yu-Min Lin Flirts With No-Hitter

Arizona Diamondbacks pitching prospect Yu-Min Lin has garnered plenty of attention lately, and rightfully so. The 19-year-old Taiwanese lefty may be just 5-foot-11 and 160 pounds, but he is still mighty when he takes the mound. Lin has posted otherworldly numbers in his first pro season, all while showing effective stuff. Most notably, he has […]

Cade Marlowe Puts Power On Display

Seattle Mariners outfield prospect Cade Marlowe, 25, was selected in the 20th round of the 2019 draft. The left-handed hitter is solid in all facets of the game, though his most noticeable improvements have come at the plate, where he has cut down on strikeouts and continued to develop impressive power. He now has 46 […]

Cody Laweryson Has Impressive Week In Minors

Minnesota Twins pitching prospect Cody Laweryson has posted impressive numbers between High-A and Double-A this season. The former 14th-round pick doesn't have a whole lot of heat behind his pitches, but he gets the job done with his off-speed offering. FanGraphs' Eric Longenhagen and Tess Taruskin put it best, writing, "Laweryson is in the 'How […]

Jason Sanders Achieves Perfection In Week 1

Miami Dolphins kicker Jason Sanders went 2-for-2 on extra points and 2-for-2 on field goals during the team's Week 1 victory over the New England Patriots. His two field goals came from 43 and 49 yards out. As long as he can continue to be accurate, the Dolphins have a strong enough offense to support […]

Dolphins Defense Forces Three Turnovers, Scores Touchdown

The Miami Dolphins defense left its mark in Week 1, tallying two fumble recoveries, one interception and one touchdown while defeating the New England Patriots. Brandon Jones and Kader Kohou forced fumbles while Melvin Ingram and Jaelan Phillips tallied recoveries. Ingram's recovery turned into a two-yard scoop-and-score, giving Miami a defensive touchdown. Additionally, Jevon Holland […]

Raheem Mostert Registers Six Touches Sunday

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert rushed five times for 16 yards against the New England Patriots on Sunday. He also hauled in his lone target for 16 yards through the air. The veteran back is the clear No. 2 behind Chase Edmonds in both the running and passing game. He's a fine insurance option […]

Chase Edmonds Gets Involved As Receiver In Week 1

Miami Dolphins running back Chase Edmonds rushed 12 times for 25 yards against the New England Patriots in Week 1. He also hauled in all four of his target for an additional 40 yards through the air. While Edmonds' performance on the ground was certainly disappointing, he made up for it with a good effort […]

Tyreek Hill Commands A Dozen Targets Sunday

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill totaled 12 targets, eight catches and 94 yards in Week 1 against the New England Patriots. He led the team in all three of those categories. Hill was the clear No. 1 receiving option in the Miami offense and has quickly earned quarterback Tua Tagovailoa's trust. He should be […]

Jaylen Waddle Finds End Zone In Season Opener

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle turned five targets into four catches, 69 yards, and one touchdown during a Week 1 victory over the New England Patriots on Sunday. He was the clear No. 2 option behind Tyreek Hill, but he still turned in an impressive performance that put him in the WR2 territory this […]

Mike Gesicki Underwhelms In Week 1 Outing

Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki hauled in his lone target for just one yard during a Week 1 victory over the New England Patriots on Sunday. His lack of involvement wasn't a major surprise considering Miami's weapons and New England's strong safety room, but his final stat line was still lower than expected. Next […]

Tua Tagovailoa Leads Dolphins To Week 1 Victory

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa completed 23 of 33 passes for 270 yards, one touchdown, and zero interceptions during a Week 1 victory over the New England Patriots. He didn't have a great fantasy performance, but he did his job by limiting turnovers and leading Miami to a 1-0 record. Most importantly, we now have […]

Darius Slayton A Healthy Scratch Sunday

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton (coach's decision) is inactive for Week 1 against the Tennessee Titans. This news isn't a major surprise considering the Giants have a relatively deep wide receiver room consisting of Kenny Golladay, Kadarius Toney, Sterling Shepard, and Wan'Dale Robinson. Of that group, Toney has the most fantasy value, but […]

Kayvon Thibodeaux, Azeez Ojulari Inactive For Week 1

New York Giants linebackers Kayvon Thibodeaux (knee) and Azeez Ojulari (calf) are both inactive for Week 1 against the Tennessee Titans. Their absences could prove to be quite negative for the New York defense, all while giving the Titans' playmakers some additional fantasy value. Specifically, this news bodes well for the outlooks of Ryan Tannehill […]

J.J. Watt Officially Inactive For Week 1

Arizona Cardinals defensive end J.J. Watt (calf) is inactive for Week 1 against the Kansas City Chiefs. The star pass-rusher did not practice this week. His absence, although expected, will hurt the Cardinals' defense in a big clash with the Chiefs. At the same time, the news could bode well for the fantasy values of […]

J.C. Jackson Inactive Sunday

Los Angeles Chargers cornerback J.C. Jackson (ankle) is officially inactive for Week 1 against the Las Vegas Raiders. He had been listed as doubtful, though there was some optimism that he might be able to play. Instead, the Chargers will hold him out at least one more week (and perhaps two if he can't handle […]

Donald Parham Jr., Isaiah Spiller Officially Inactive For Week 1

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Donald Parham Jr. (hamstring) and running back Isaiah Spiller (coach's decision) are both inactive for Week 1 against the Las Vegas Raiders.
