Vikings Defense Worth Starting Against Rams

The Minnesota Vikings defense should be inserted into most fantasy lineups ahead of their Week 8 clash with the Los Angeles Rams. The Rams' offense has been underwhelming this season, and even if they get Cooper Kupp (ankle) back this week, they'll still face a tough task in the form of the Vikings. Minnesota has […]

Will Reichard Looks To Stay Perfect In Week 8

Minnesota Vikings kicker Will Reichard has maintained perfection through the first six games of his rookie campaign, and he'll look to keep that streak going against the Los Angeles Rams on Thursday Night Football in Week 8.

Jalen Nailor Carries Momentum Into Week 8 Primetime Matchup

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jalen Nailor is riding the momentum of a strong Week 7 into this Thursday's clash with the Los Angeles Rams.

Jordan Addison Enters Week 8 In Flex Range

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison is a worthwhile WR3/flex option heading into Week 8 against the Los Angeles Rams. While he's always a threat to score touchdowns, he doesn't have major upside in his current role against a respectable Rams passing defense. Addison has been held to three catches in all four of his […]

Justin Jefferson A Major Threat To Score Against Rams

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson continues to rank as a high-end WR1 for fantasy football heading into Week 8 against the Los Angeles Rams. While Jefferson's volume has taken a step backward in the Vikings' Sam Darnold-led offense (he's averaging a relatively modest 5.5 catches per game and has not caught more than seven […]

Gabe Davis Comes Back Down To Earth In Week 7

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Gabe Davis was targeted twice during Sunday's Week 7 win over the New England Patriots in London.

Jalen Nailor Productive In Loss To Lions Sunday

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jalen Nailor caught four of his five targets for 76 receiving yards during Sunday's Week 7 loss to the Detroit Lions. Nailor operated as the Vikings' No. 3 receiver, but he still played 73.3 percent of the offensive snaps and was clearly heavily involved in the passing attack. In fact, Nailor […]

D'Ernest Johnson Sees Increased Opportunities Sunday

Jacksonville Jaguars running back D'Ernest Johnson rushed for 38 yards on nine carries during Sunday's Week 7 win over the New England Patriots in London.

Evan Engram Productive Again In Week 7 Win

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Evan Engram caught all five of his targets for 35 yards during Sunday's Week 7 win over the New England Patriots in London.

Geno Stone's X-Rays Come Back Negative

X-rays came back negative on Cincinnati Bengals safety Geno Stone (shin), according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. The defensive starter exited late during Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns. While any injury is concerning, it's great news that his X-rays were negative. Still, it's possible that Stone will miss some time. If so, look for Tycen […]

K.J. Osborn Catches Touchdown Pass In Week 7 Loss

New England Patriots wide receiver K.J. Osborn caught two of his three targets for 26 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 7 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Kayshon Boutte Quiet Despite Leading Patriots In Routes Run

New England Patriots wide receiver Kayshon Boutte caught one of his two targets for 33 yards during Sunday's Week 7 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Demario Douglas Not Involved After Returning Sunday

New England Patriots wide receiver Demario Douglas caught two of three targets for 14 yards during Sunday's Week 7 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Austin Hooper Catches Four Passes Against Jaguars

New England Patriots tight end Austin Hooper caught four of his five targets for 32 yards during Sunday's Week 7 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Hunter Henry Highly Productive In Week 7

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry caught eight of nine targets for 92 yards during Sunday's Week 7 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars in London.

JaMycal Hasty Scores Touchdown In Week 7 Loss

New England Patriots running back JaMycal Hasty lost two yards on two carries during Sunday's Week 7 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Antonio Gibson Not A Factor In Week 7

New England Patriots running back Antonio Gibson rushed for just four yards on three carries during Sunday's Week 7 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars.

JuJu Smith-Schuster Questionable After Re-Injuring Hamstring

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (hamstring) exited during the first quarter of Sunday's game against the San Francisco 49ers and is officially questionable to return. He had not been targeted prior to his departure. Smith-Schuster entered Week 7 with a hamstring injury, so while the Chiefs initially cleared him to play, it appears […]
