JaMycal Hasty To See More Playing Time

San Francisco 49ers running back JaMycal Hasty is in line to serve as the team's No. 2 running back on Friday with Elijah Mitchell (concussion, knee) ruled out. Jeff Wilson (knee) will operate as the lead back, but the expectation is that Hasty will see a larger-than-normal workload. Through six games, the 25-year-old has posted […]

Jeff Wilson Jr. To Start In Week 14

San Francisco 49ers running back Jeff Wilson Jr. is slated to start in Week 14 now that Elijah Mitchell (concussion, knee) has been ruled out. The 26-year-old Wilson totaled 58 scrimmage yards when Mitchell was inactive for Week 11. Since then, he has logged just three touches, partly due to a flare-up of his previous […]

Brandin Cooks Added To Injury Report, Questionable For Week 14

Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks (back) was added to the injury report on Friday. He's officially listed as questionable for this weekend's game against the Seahawks. The 28-year-old has registered just eight catches, 101 yards, and one touchdown over his last three games. Even if he does suit up on Sunday, his upside is […]

Taysom Hill Cleared To Start In Week 14

New Orleans Saints quarterback Taysom Hill (right finger) was removed from the injury report and will start against the Jets on Sunday. This was widely expected after he practiced in full all week long. The 31-year-old was shaky during his first start of the season last week, completing 19 of 41 passes for 264 yards, […]

Brock Wright In Line To Start On Sunday

Detroit Lions tight end Brock Wright is expected to start on Sunday with T.J. Hockenson (hand) listed as doubtful.

Zach Ertz Remains Limited On Friday

Arizona Cardinals tight end Zach Ertz (shoulder) remained limited in practice on Friday. This was the second consecutive day in which he was unable to log a full session.

Cooper Kupp Logs Full Practice Session On Friday

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp (toe) was upgraded to full participation following Friday's practice. He had been limited on Thursday, but it now appears that he should have a normal workload in Week 14. The 28-year-old star has been elite this year, catching 100 passes for 1,366 yards and 11 touchdowns. Fantasy managers […]

Darrell Henderson Jr. Limited On Friday

Los Angeles Rams running back Darrell Henderson Jr. (thigh) remained limited in practice on Friday. He seems to be trending in the right direction ahead of Week 14, but the fact that he plays on Monday night does leave fantasy managers in a bit of a bind. Ideally, the Rams will provide more clarity surrounding […]

Emmanuel Sanders Excused From Friday's Practice

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders was excused from practice on Friday for personal reasons. Presumably, this is related to the death of Demaryius Thomas, the former NFL wide receiver who passed away on Thursday at the young age of 33. Sanders and Thomas, both members of the 2010 draft class, were teammates in Denver […]

David Njoku Trending In Wrong Direction

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku (COVID-19) is "not trending in the right direction" in regards to his status for Week 14 against Baltimore. The 25-year-old is asymptomatic but would need to be activated by Saturday at 4 p.m. in order to play this Sunday. Of course, he can't be activated unless he remains asymptomatic […]

J.D. McKissic Spotted At Friday's Practice

Washington Football Team running back J.D. McKissic (concussion) is practicing on Friday. He did not practice on Wednesday and was limited on Thursday, so the fact that he is practicing in some capacity again on Friday is a good sign. Through 11 games this season, the 28-year-old has posted 212 rushing yards, 397 receiving yards, […]

Joe Mixon Misses Third Consecutive Practice

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (illness) is absent from practice for the third consecutive day this week. Although official injury statuses have not been released yet, the expectation is that Mixon's availability this weekend will be far from a guarantee. If he suits up, fantasy managers should treat him as a high-end RB1. However, […]

Davis Mills Officially Named Week 14 Starter

Houston Texans rookie quarterback Davis Mills has officially been named the team's starter by head coach David Culley. The move was widely expected but not yet confirmed until Friday morning. The announcement indicates another passing of the torch to Mills, who completed 146 of 223 passes for 1,406 yards, seven touchdowns, and eight interceptions while […]

Elijah Moore Officially Questionable For Week 14

New York Jets rookie wide receiver Elijah Moore (quad) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Saints.

Tevin Coleman Ruled Out For Week 14

New York Jets starting running back Tevin Coleman (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Saints. The 28-year-old had been filling in for the injured Michael Carter (ankle) and totaled 147 scrimmage yards over his last two games. Now, Ty Johnson will likely serve as the lead back on Sunday, though Austin […]

D'Andre Swift 'Unlikely' To Play In Week 14

Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift (shoulder) is "unlikely" to play against the Broncos on Sunday, head coach Dan Campbell told the media. The second-year back did not practice on Wednesday or Thursday, and the expectation surrounding his involvement remains the same for Friday. With Swift expected to miss his second straight game, the Lions […]

Tyrod Taylor Practices In Full On Thursday

Houston Texans quarterback Tyrod Taylor (left wrist) practiced in full for the second consecutive day on Thursday. Although he should be active for Week 14 and Houston has yet to officially name a starter, the expectation is that Davis Mills will get the nod. The 32-year-old Taylor went 60-for-106 with just 550 passing yards, two […]

Jets Cut Matt Ammendola, Sign Alex Kessman

New York Jets kicker Matt Ammendola was released on Saturday. He'll be replaced on the active roster by Alex Kessman as the team looks for a change in the kicking game. Through 11 games, Ammendola, a rookie, made 14 of 15 extra points but just 13 of 19 field goals (including zero of three from […]

Austin Walter Elevated To Active Roster

New York Jets running back Austin Walter was elevated from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Sunday's game against the Eagles.

Although he remains the third-string back behind Tevin Coleman and […]

DeSean Jackson Expected To Play Sunday

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver DeSean Jackson (groin) is expected to suit up against Washington on Sunday afternoon, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs (ankle) is expected to play in Week 13, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. The 23-year-old was limited in practice on Thursday and Friday before drawing a "questionable" tag.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (hip) is expected to play against the Jaguars on Sunday despite being listed as questionable, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. The 29-year-old has appeared in two games since signing with Los Angeles. During this time, he has caught seven passes for 99 yards, though the […]

David Johnson Unlikely To Play In Week 13

Houston Texans running back David Johnson (thigh, illness) is not expected to play against the Colts on Sunday, reports Adam Schefter of ESPN. This is hardly a surprise considering Johnson did not practice this week. With the 29-year-old set for the inactive list, Houston will deploy Rex Burkhead as its starter, followed by Royce Freeman […]

Danny Amendola Lands On Injured Reserve

Houston Texans wide receiver Danny Amendola (knee) has been placed on Injured Reserve after undergoing arthroscopic knee surgery this past week. The 36-year-old is expected to miss four to six weeks. Through seven games this season, he caught 17 passes for 135 yards and one touchdown. He's not on the fantasy radar whatsoever.

James Robinson Trying To Play On Sunday

Jacksonville Jaguars running back James Robinson (heel, knee) plans to try to play against the Rams on Sunday.

Los Angeles Rams running back Darrell Henderson (thigh) likely faces an uphill battle to play against the Jaguars on Sunday.

Assuming Henderson does miss his second game of 2021, the Rams will […]

Kansas City Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire (illness) is expected to play against the Broncos on Sunday despite being listed as questionable, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.

Kyler Murray Expected To Play On Sunday

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (ankle) is expected to start against the Bears on Sunday, reports Adam Schefter of ESPN. He had been listed as questionable. Murray ultimately missed three games and was given extra time to recover thanks to the Cardinals' conveniently-positioned bye in Week 12. Through eight games this season, the 24-year-old star […]

DeAndre Hopkins Likely To Play Sunday, Could Be Used Sparingly

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) is likely to play in Week 13 but could be used sparingly due to his injury and concerns about the weather conditions, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. It's hard to tell exactly what type of role Hopkins will have, but the lack of clarity certainly drops him into […]

Kadarius Toney Not Playing In Week 12

New York Giants wide receiver Kadarius Toney (quad), who was listed as doubtful heading into the weekend, will indeed be inactive for Sunday's game against the Eagles, confirms Dan Duggan of The Athletic. Toney was unable to practice all week, so his absence is not surprising. The Giants will be without Toney and Sterling Shepard […]
