13 hours agoBuffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman (wrist) is set to undergo tests on his wrist on Monday after a disappointing performance in Week 9. The rookie wasn't forced to leave the game against the Miami Dolphins with the injury, so the severity of the injury is unclear. He's had a solid start to his career as he sits in WR3 territory so far at the WR34 in half-PPR formats. If he's forced to miss some time, Amari Cooper (wrist) could be back in Week 10 while Khalil Shakir has been a steadying force.Source: Dianna Russini
13 hours agoThe New Orleans Saints have fired their head coach Dennis Allen, according to Ian Rapaport and Mike Garafolo. Following a terrible loss to the 1-7 Carolina Panthers in Week 9, it was clear something needed to change. It looks like the team decided they'll be heading in a different direction coaching-wise. The Saints started 2-0 and looked like the best offense in the league in the first two weeks, but they have lost seven consecutive games since then. There hasn't been any word yet on who the front-runner is to take over as interim head coach.Source: Ian Rapoport
13 hours agoJacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. was one of three different offensive players ruled active on the day of their game but was unable to get into much of a rhythm. The rookie wideout finished with four targets, two receptions, and 22 yards. The Philadelphia Eagles defense was doing a great job with nine passes defended, three QB hits, two sacks, and two interceptions, so Thomas didn't have much of a chance for fantasy points. His next chance to bounce back will be against another tough defense in the Minnesota Vikings in Week 10.Source: ESPN
13 hours agoJacksonville Jaguars running back Tank Bigsby was deemed active not too long before kickoff on Sunday but wasn't able to produce a big performance in the 28-23 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. The 23-year-old saw eight carries for 22 yards and didn't get targeted at all in the passing game. Bigsby has been seeing a higher percentage of snaps this season but hasn't been able to produce many fantasy points when Travis Etienne Jr. is also active. The ground game in general was shut down in this contest and they had to play catch up almost the entire time. The Jaguars will take on another tough defense in the Minnesota Vikings in Week 10.Source: ESPN
13 hours agoMiami Dolphins kicker Jason Sanders made both field goal attempts and went 3-for-3 on extra-point tries in Sunday's 30-27 loss to the Buffalo Bills. He hit field goals from 23 and 39 yards out. The seventh-year vet has made 12-of-16 field goals on the season but has not missed in the last two games. Sanders and the Dolphins look to get back in the win column at the Los Angeles Rams in Week 10 on Monday night football. The 28-year-old can be used as a streamer in Week 10, as he will kick indoors in a potential shootout against the Rams.Source: NFL
13 hours agoJacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. only received five total touches in the 28-23 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. He registered three carries for 24 yards and hauled in two of his three targets for six yards. The Eagles' defense not only shut down the run, but they jumped out to a big lead to start the game and the Jaguars had to play catch up for almost the entire time. Etienne saw five fewer carries than backfield mate Tank Bigsby but was more of a factor in the passing game. He'll look to bounce back in Week 10 against the Minnesota Vikings.Source: ESPN
13 hours agoArizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. had another boom-or-bust outing in the 29-9 victory over the Chicago Bears. Harrison Jr. entered the season with high expectations for a rookie, but he has shown his youth throughout the first nine weeks. After recording 111 yards and a touchdown in the previous week against the Miami Dolphins, it seemed as though Harrison Jr. was back on the right track for the rest of the season. However, he recorded only two catches for 34 yards and a fumble against the Bears. One positive was that Harrison Jr. led the team in targets with five, but the Cardinals' lack of passing attack was likely due to a shift toward a more conservative game plan as they took a commanding lead in the second half. As of now, it's hard to view Harrison Jr. as anything other than a boom-or-bust wide receiver, but he should still be started in fantasy lineups in Week 10 when the Cardinals host the New York Jets.Source: ESPN.com
14 hours agoThe Philadelphia Eagles defense allowed 17 points, generated two sacks, and forced two interceptions during the team's 28-23 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. For the fourth week in a row, the team has held an opponent to fewer than 20 points score offensively and they finally started to generate turnovers with a game-sealing interception caught by linebacker Nakobe Dean in the late fourth in the end zone being the highlight of the game. It was another solid fantasy performance from the team and they will be on the streaming radar next week when they travel to Dallas to take on a beat-up Cowboys team that may be without starting quarterback Dak Prescott (hamstring).Source: ESPN
14 hours agoDallas Cowboys wide receiver Jalen Tolbert hauled in a touchdown reception from backup quarterback Cooper Rush late in the game on Sunday. Dallas wound up falling 27-21 to the Atlanta Falcons despite the fourth-quarter touchdown. Tolbert was targeted six times, but only hauled in three receptions for 19 yards along with the score. If CeeDee Lamb (shoulder) misses any time, Tolbert would near must-start territory. For now, the third-year receiver remains a touchdown-dependent flex option.Source: RotoBaller
14 hours agoThrough the first eight weeks, Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride's only touchdown had been from a fumble recovered in the end zone. That trend changed in the Week 9 win over the Chicago Bears when McBride scored a rushing touchdown on a 2-yard jet sweep. McBride has been putting together a Pro Bowl-caliber season at tight end for the Cardinals, and that continued even with the passing game not up to par. McBride's official stat line was three catches for 35 yards and one rush for 2 yards, resulting in a rushing touchdown. This is an encouraging sign for fantasy managers, as the Cardinals showed an emphasis on getting McBride involved in the red zone. If McBride's touchdown upside increases, he could make a case to finish as the number one tight end in fantasy this season. He should be started in all league formats when the Cardinals host the New York Jets in Week 10.Source: ESPN.com
14 hours agoPhiladelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott made one of two field goal attempts and converted his lone extra point attempt during the team's 28-23 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. After his best week of the season, the 29-year-old came back to earth in Week 9 and missed a long field goal attempt late in the game that would have given the Eagles an eight-point lead rather than a five-point one. It went on not to matter in the end, but the up-and-down season for Elliott continues. At this point, fantasy managers need to consider him a boom-or-bust streaming option who only needs to be started in plus matchups. That applies next week when the Eagles take on a reeling Cowboys team.Source: ESPN
14 hours agoDallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson led the way through the air on Sunday in the 27-21 loss to Atlanta. Ferguson was targeted 10 times, securing seven receptions for 71 yards. The performance was Ferguson's second-highest receiving yardage total of the season. The third-year tight end still has not found the end zone in the 2024 campaign, but remains a key part of Dallas' passing offense and is still a top option at the bleak tight end position.Source: RotoBaller
14 hours agoDallas Cowboys running back Rico Dowdle was productive in the 27-21 loss to the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday. The 26-year-old saw most of the running back work with Ezekiel Elliott (healthy scratch) missing the game due to disciplinary reasons. Dowdle rushed 12 times for 75 yards while also securing five receptions for 32 yards and a touchdown on an impressive grab in the endzone. Dowdle appears to remain set as the lead back in Dallas and is an RB2 moving forward.Source: RotoBaller
14 hours agoDallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (hamstring) suffered a hamstring injury late in their game against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday. He left the game while Cooper Rush took over, and is now in doubt for Week 10. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said that he was concerned and Ian Rapoport reported that Prescott will undergo an MRI on Monday to determine the extent of the injury. The Cowboys' offense has already been disappointing, so if Rush has to take over for a week or more, the entire offense would get a big downgrade until Prescott is healthy. A clearer picture should come into focus after the MRI.Source: Ian Rapoport
14 hours agoPhiladelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra caught all five of his targets for 30 yards during the team's 28-23 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. The third-year tight end was involved early in the game having four grabs before halftime, but did little after. Next week will mark the fourth since starter Dallas Goedert (hamstring) was injured against Cleveland and will be his first real shot at making a return to the field. Fantasy managers will need to monitor practice reports during the week, but Calcaterra may move back to his role as the No. 2 option if Goedert is able to put in any practice time this week.Source: ESPN
