The New York Giants are placing cornerback James Bradberry on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Thursday, according to sources.

The good news is that Bradberry was deemed a high-risk close contact, which should allow him […]

Christian McCaffrey Officially Doubtful For Saturday

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey (quadriceps, shoulder) is officially listed as doubtful for the Week 15 game against the Packers on Saturday. McCaffrey has played in just three games this year due to injury. You could say he's been a monumental bust for fantasy managers after he was taken with the first overall pick […]

Cubs Agree With Jonathan Holder

The Chicago Cubs agreed to terms with right-handed pitcher Jonathan Holder on Thursday on a 2021 non-guaranteed contract. The 27-year-old is 10-6 with 14 holds and a 4.38 ERA with 86 earned runs allowed in 176 2/3 innings over 157 major league games in his career, with all but two coming as a reliever. Holder […]

Alex Smith Sitting Out Again Thursday

Washington Football Team quarterback Alex Smith (calf) will sit out of practice for the second straight day on Thursday as he deals with a calf strain that he suffered in the Week 14 win over the 49ers. Washington's plan all along was to take things slowly with Smith, as the priority is rest over practice […]

Matthew Stafford, Frank Ragnow Miss Practice Again

Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford (ribs) and center Frank Ragnow (throat) are both out of practice again on Thursday. Stafford is highly questionable for Week 15 against the Titans, but interim head coach Darrell Bevell said on Wednesday that he'd be comfortable with Stafford playing, even if he doesn't practice all week. The 32-year-old is […]

Scott Oberg Playing Catch

Colorado Rockies manager Bud Black said that relief pitcher Scott Oberg (arm) is playing catch again after missing all of the 2020 season due to blood clots in his right arm. "He's slowly picking up the intensity," Black said. "Feel really good about Scotty." Without setbacks, the 30-year-old could be back to full strength by […]

Shop the Sales: 2nd Rounders Who Could Find Quick Success

It's funny that every year at the NBA Draft, once the end of the guaranteed money and live appearances arrives at the end of the first round, everybody tunes out and refers to the 60th pick as "Mr.Irrelevant". That's not very accurate though, is it? Speaking historically, the title of "Mr.Irrelevant" could just as easily […]

Rays Re-Sign Catcher Mike Zunino

The Tampa Bay Rays agreed to re-sign catcher Mike Zunino to a one-year deal worth $2 million on Wednesday. If the Rays decline his $ 7 million option for the 2022 season, he'll receive a $1 million buyout. The 29-year-old hit just .147/.238/.360 with four home runs and 28 RBI in 28 games during the […]

Johnny Cueto Won't Pitch In Winter Ball

San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Johnny Cueto and the team have decided that he will not pitch in winter ball in his native Dominican Republic this year, given that the 2020 season was his first quasi-full season since returning from Tommy John surgery. Cueto was originally scheduled to pitch for the Estrellas Orientales. Manager Gabe […]

Anthony DeSclafani Signs With Giants

The San Francisco Giants signed right-handed pitcher Anthony DeSclafani to a one-year deal worth $6 million on Wednesday, according to a source.

Houston Astros starting pitcher Justin Verlander (elbow) is hoping to pitch at some point next year after having Tommy John surgery, according to general manager James Click.

Texans Won't Shut Down Deshaun Watson

Houston Texans interim head coach Romeo Crennel said that the team won't shut down quarterback Deshaun Watson for the final three games of the season after the club was eliminated from postseason contention last weekend.

Mike Williams Not Expected To Face Raiders

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams (hamstring), who is questionable for Thursday night against the division-rival Raiders, is not expected to play, according to sources.

Keenan Allen A Game-Time Decision

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen (hamstring) will be a true game-time decision for Thursday night against the division-rival Raiders, according to sources. Allen was sore in the Week 14 win over the Falcons, and the short week hasn't helped. If Allen does play, he will likely be limited, which would make for a […]

Austin Ekeler Expected To Play Thursday

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler (quadriceps) is expected to play on Thursday night against the division-rival Raiders. Ekeler has yet to rush for 100 yards in a single game in 2020, but he should be considered a strong RB1 against a Raiders defense that will be missing four starters due to injury on […]

Drew Brees Has A Ways To Go

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees (lung, ribs) was designated to return to practice on Wednesday, but head coach Sean Payton said that Brees has "a ways to go" in his recovery from 11 broken ribs and a punctured lung. "He's got a ways to go still, and he's someone we're not gonna just hurry […]

Raiders Defense Not A Starting Option Against Chargers

The Raiders defense struggled again last week, allowing 37 offensive points to the Colts. They had just one pressure on the quarterback, which was the lowest amount in any game of the NFL season. They take on a Chargers offense that has proved they can put up points, led by potential offensive rookie of the […]

Darren Waller Looking For Another Strong Performance

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller will look for another solid outing in Week 15 against the Chargers. Waller has been one of the better tight ends all season and has posted exceptional numbers over the past two weeks. In the last two games, Waller has a whopping 27 targets and has 275 receiving […]

MMA DFS Value Picks - UFC Vegas 17: Thompson vs. Neal (Premium Content)

Let's all observe a moment of silence for the year that was in MMA and the last event of 2020 that is ahead of us. Okay, we can now move on. It's sad (maybe?) but having the last event scheduled for this very shitty year this upcoming Saturday also means that we're about to enter […]

Hunter Renfrow May See More Targets Against Chargers

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Hunter Renfrow enters the week as No. 2 on the Raiders depth chart due to Henry Ruggs III being on the COVID-19 list. This could give Renfrow a higher share of the targets, which would give him some fringe flex value. Renfrow took advantage of some of the receiver injuries […]

Nelson Agholor Becoming A Consistent Flex Option

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Nelson Agholor has gained momentum as a dependable flex option over the past four weeks. He is averaging nearly nine targets and five catches per game over the last month and has caught a touchdown in two of those games. The Chargers secondary has been inconsistent over the course of […]

Lynn Bowden Has Arrived

Lynn Bowden Jr. is quite possibly the most exciting NFL player to come out of the University of Kentucky, with apologies to Benny Snell Jr. This is not just due to his speed, but his ability to play multiple positions. Despite his electric NCAA highlights and desirable scouting profile, Bowden's 2020 has been a year […]

DraftKings MMA, UFC DFS Lineup Picks - Thompson vs. Neal (UFC Vegas 17)

Let's all observe a moment of silence for the year that was in MMA and the last event of 2020 that is ahead of us. Okay, we can now move on. It's sad (maybe?) but having the last event scheduled for this very shitty year this upcoming Saturday also means that we're about to enter […]

Josh Jacobs Cleared To Play Against Chargers

Jordan Reed Can't Be Trusted In Week 15

San Francisco 49ers tight end Jordan Reed has been unable to deliver solid fantasy production despite being the team's No. 1 tight end over the past month or so. In Week 14 against the New York Giants, he caught just two passes for 13 yards, despite quarterback Nick Mullens throwing a whopping 45 passes in […]

Kendrick Bourne Not A Starting Option Against Cowboys

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Kendrick Bourne could see an increased workload in Week 15 against the Dallas Cowboys with Deebo Samuel (hamstring) out. Unfortunately, Bourne hasn't been able to do much this year when he's seen an increased target share. He's averaging just 12.5 yards per reception on the year and has scored only […]
