Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin caught a team-high eight of nine targets for 97 receiving yards in a loss to the Chiefs. Aside from a big, 44-yard catch, Godwin continued to operate as Tom Brady's safety blanket over the middle of the field. Godwin's shorter routes out of the slot seem suited to […]

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans hauled in three of nine targets for 50 yards and two scores in a loss to Kansas City. Evans was having a relatively quiet day- and then the fourth quarter happened, where he caught a beautiful, 31-yard deep ball from Tom Brady for his first score. He grabbed […]

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette failed to do much in a 27-24 loss to the Chiefs.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II carried the ball nine times for 66 rushing yards and caught one pass for 37 receiving yards and a touchdown.

The Carolina Panthers Defense had a great day in a 28-27 loss to the Minnesota Vikings, recovering three fumbles, notching two sacks, and scoring two touchdowns. Perhaps most impressive of all, Carolina held star running back Dalvin Cook to just 83 scoreless scrimmage yards, though he did leave at one point with an injury. The […]

Carolina Panthers kicker Joey Slye made 2 of 4 field-goal attempts and all three extra points in a disappointing 28-27 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Slye had a solid day for fantasy purposes, though he left points on the field, including the game-winning kick. The 24-year-old has had a solid season otherwise, as he ranks […]

Carolina Panthers tight end Ian Thomas caught one of two targets for four receiving yards in a 28-27 loss to the Minnesota Vikings.

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Curtis Samuel caught all five targets for 72 receiving yards, adding one carry for five rushing yards in a 28-27 loss to the Vikings.

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Robby Anderson had a strong bounce-back performance in a loss to the Vikings. Anderson caught four of seven targets for 94 yards and a touchdown, including a route over the middle of the field where there was somehow a lineman covering him- he proceeded to burn him for the score. Unfortunately, […]

Carolina Panthers wide receiver D.J. Moore (leg) hauled in four of a team-high nine targets for 61 yards in a 28-27 loss to Minnesota. Moore had himself a solid day, but it ended horribly when he injured his leg on a non-contact play. He had to be helped off with trainers and was clearly in […]
Tim Capurso 4 years agoMike Davis Puts Up 79 Scoreless Scrimmage Yards
Carolina Panthers running back Mike Davis handled 18 total touches, producing 79 scrimmage yards in a narrow loss to the Vikings.

Tim Capurso 4 years agoTeddy Bridgewater Has Average Day In Loss To Vikings
Carolina Panthers quarterback Teddy Bridgewater completed 19 of 36 passes for 267 yards with one touchdown and one interception in a 28-27 loss to the Vikings.

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (thumb) is not expected to start in Week 12, though there's nothing broken in his injured thumb. Tagovailoa jammed his thumb against a helmet during practice, but it appears that he avoided the worst, as he is dealing with swelling and weakness in the thumb. However, the rookie could miss […]
Tim Capurso 4 years agoJerry Jeudy Should Play Against Saints
Denver Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy (ankle, Achilles) is expected to suit up in Week 12 against the Saints. Jeudy was limited on Friday, though it's looking like he'll play after toughing out the ankle injury last week. It's certainly a concern, though the bigger worry is the quality of targets that Jeudy will see […]

Cincinnati Bengals running back Giovani Bernard (head) is expected to take the field on Sunday against the Giants.

San Francisco 49ers cornerback Richard Sherman (calf) is expected to make his return to the field in Week 12 against the Rams.

Los Angeles Chargers running back Kalen Ballage (ankle, calf) is not expected to play against the Bills In Week 12.

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones (hamstring) is not expected to play against the Raiders in Week 12. Meanwhile, tight end Hayden Hurst (ankle) is on track to suit up for the contest.

Tim Capurso 4 years agoHunter Henry A Must-Start Against Bills
Los Angeles Chargers tight end Hunter Henry has an excellent matchup on tap against the Bills in Week 12. Buffalo allows the third-most fantasy points per game and the fourth-most red zone targets per game to opposing tight ends, making this a smash spot for Henry. The veteran tight end has hauled in a touchdown […]

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen is red-hot heading into a Week 12 matchup with the Bills.

The 28-year-old has one of the highest floors in fantasy […]
Tim Capurso 4 years agoKalen Ballage A Risky RB2 If He Suits Up
Los Angeles Chargers running back Kalen Ballage (ankle, calf) is questionable ahead of a matchup with an underachieving Bills' defense. Ballage appears to have a good chance of playing after logging limited practice sessions all week.
