Brian Burns Has A Good Matchup In Week 12

Carolina Panthers edge rusher Brian Burns has a plus matchup against the Tennessee Titans in Week 12. Burns has made five sacks this season and just 28 tackles. He's been disappointing for IDP managers who drafted him amongst the top 10 defensive ends, but he could provide value against a subpar Titans offensive line. The […]

Jordyn Brooks Makes A Pick-Six On Thanksgiving

Seattle Seahawks linebacker Jordyn Brooks intercepted a pass from San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy in the third quarter and took it 12 yards for a score, the Seahawks' only touchdown in a 13-31 Thanksgiving Day loss to the Niners. With the pick-six and 12 tackles, Brooks had a big game, scoring 34 RotoBaller IDP […]

DaRon Bland Extends Streak, Adds Fifth Pick-Six

Dallas Cowboys cornerback DaRon Bland added his seventh interception and fifth defensive touchdown in the Cowboys' 45-10 victory over the Washington Commanders on Thanksgiving Day. Bland has made an interception in each of the past three games and taken the pick back to the house in each of the past two. In addition to the […]

Maxx Crosby Remains Sidelined Thursday

Las Vegas Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby (knee) missed a second consecutive practice on Thursday. At this rate, it looks unlikely that he'll play against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 12, though he still has a chance to avoid being ruled out if he can log a limited or full practice on Friday. The […]

Justin Madubuike On Verge Of Big Payday

Baltimore Ravens defensive end Justin Madubuike leads the team with 9.5 sacks with six regular-season games to go in 2023. The Ravens haven't had a player reach double-digit sacks since Terrell Suggs broke the 10-sack mark back in 2017 with 11. Madubuike is currently earning just $2.7 million from the Ravens, and the 26-year-old will […]

Minkah Fitzpatrick Still Absent From Practice

Pittsburgh Steelers safety Minkah Fitzpatrick (hamstring) was not present at the team's practice on Wednesday. The no practice to begin the week for the All-Pro safety is not a great sign for his availability on Sunday. Fitzpatrick has missed the last three games since first suffering a hamstring injury against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week […]

Maxx Crosby Misses Practice On Wednesday

Las Vegas Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby (knee) was a non-participant in the team's practice on Wednesday. The missed practice could just be a routine off-day for Crosby, who has played every defensive snap for the Raiders in four straight games. Thursday's injury report, though, will tell how serious his knee issue actually is. Those […]

Cowboys, Eagles Expected To Be Interested In Shaquille Leonard

Indianapolis Colts three-time All-Pro linebacker Shaquille Leonard cleared waivers on Wednesday and is now a free agent, according to a source. The Dallas Cowboys and Philadelphia Eagles are expected to have some level of interest in signing Leonard.

Jamal Adams Expected To Return Thursday Night

The Seattle Seahawks are expecting safety Jamal Adams (knee) to return for their Thursday night meeting with the division-rival San Francisco 49ers in Week 12 after dealing with a knee injury that kept him out of the Week 11 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Adams was a full participant in the team's practice on […]

Joey Bosa Officially Placed On Injured Reserve

Los Angeles Chargers edge rusher Joey Bosa (foot) has been placed on Injured Reserve after suffering a foot sprain early in the Week 11 loss to the Green Bay Packers. The four-time Pro Bowler is now required to miss at least the next four games. With the Chargers sitting at 4-6, they'll likely need to […]

Kareem Jackson's Four-Game Suspension Upheld

Denver Broncos safety Kareem Jackson's four-game suspension for violating the league's player-safety rules was upheld by hearing officer Derrick Brooks, who was appointed by the NFL and Players Association, on Tuesday. It's the second suspension for Jackson this year after he lowered his head on a hard hit of Minnesota Vikings quarterback Joshua Dobbs on […]

Shaquille Leonard Released By Colts

The Indianapolis Colts released former All-Pro linebacker Shaquille Leonard on Tuesday. Leonard was a second-round selection by the Colts in the 2018 draft, and he went on to earn four All-Pro nods and four trips to the Pro Bowl. He collected 614 total tackles, 15 sacks, and 12 interceptions in 70 games for the organization. […]

IDP Waiver Wire Pickups and Fantasy Football Streamers for Week 12 (2023)

If you took my advice in Week 2 and added Dallas Cowboys CB DaRon Bland to your IDP team, you would have enjoyed 23 fantasy points this week as he made yet another pick-six, his fourth of the season. Bland is still only rostered in 13% of Sleeper leagues. If you're not rostering and starting […]

Kareem Jackson Suspended Again

Denver Broncos defensive back Kareem Jackson was suspended without pay for four games by the NFL for repeated violations of playing rules intended to protect the health and safety of players, including a vicious hit on Minnesota Vikings quarterback Joshua Dobbs on Sunday night. Jackson served a two-game suspension in Weeks 8 and 9. The […]

Joey Bosa Likely To Go On Injured Reserve

Los Angeles Chargers head coach Brandon Staley told a reporter on Monday that defensive end Joey Bosa (foot) is now likely to be placed on Injured Reserve with a sprained foot that he suffered early in the Week 11 loss to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. The team still does not know if Bosa […]

Marshon Lattimore Could Miss Multiple Weeks

New Orleans Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore (ankle) suffered an ankle injury during the Week 10 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. The Pro Bowl defensive back got time to recover thanks to a Week 11 bye, but head coach Dennis Allen said his injury will "take some time" to recover from. He did not say whether […]

49ers Confirm Talanoa Hufanga's Torn ACL

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan confirmed that safety Talanoa Hufanga (knee) tore his right ACL in the Week 11 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday. Hufanga will miss the rest of the season, but the good news is that he suffered a clean tear of his ACL, and no meniscus tear […]

X-Rays Come Back Negative On Joey Bosa

Los Angeles Chargers pass-rusher Joey Bosa (foot) left the Week 11 loss to the Green Bay Packers early in the first half on Sunday and was quickly ruled out, but X-rays came back negative on his foot. It doesn't appear to be an Achilles injury and is most likely a foot sprain, but it remains […]

Talanoa Hufanga Likely Has A Torn ACL

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said that safety Talanoa Hufanga (knee) likely has a torn ACL, which would end his 2023 season. Hufanga was fooled in the open field in the Week 11 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers by running back Rachaad White, which is when he suffered the devastating injury. The […]

Carlton Davis III Won't Return On Sunday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers cornerback Carlton Davis III (hip) won't return to Sunday's game against the 49ers. The Bucs defense already had their work cut out for them versus a high-powered San Francisco offense. However, the team also lost LaVonte David (groin) and Jamel Dean (ankle/foot), making things even more difficult. Nonetheless, it's tough to say […]

Taron Johnson Ruled Out On Sunday

Buffalo Bills cornerback Taron Johnson (head) won't return to Sunday's AFC East matchup against the New York Jets. The 27-year-old, who entered Week 11 with 53 total tackles, the third-most on the team, had two tackles before he was ruled out with a concussion. Buffalo also lost Taylor Rapp (neck) in this one, so the […]

Lavonte David Done For Rest Of Week 11

Tampa Bay Buccaneers linebacker Lavonte David (groin) won't return to Sunday's matchup with the 49ers. The Bucs are having a terrible time keeping guys on the field, with Carlton Davis III (hip) and Jamel Dean (foot/ankle) also going down with injuries. That said, David, arguably the team's top defender, will end Week 11 with seven […]

Talanoa Hufanga Ruled Out On Sunday

San Francisco 49ers safety Talanoa Hufanga (knee) won't return to Sunday's matchup against the Tampa Bay Bucs. The All-Pro injured his knee while attempting a tackle on Bucs running back Rachaad White and needed to be carted off. Hufanga, who had just one tackle before his premature departure, is one of the 49ers' top defenders. […]

Jamel Dean Won't Return On Sunday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers cornerback Jamel Dean (foot/ankle) was injured in Sunday's matchup with the 49ers. There's nothing official regarding the exact nature of the ailment. However, he was initially questionable but was ruled out shortly after, so things don't sound too promising at the moment. If Dean doesn't return, he'll finish with three total tackles.

Taylor Rapp Taken Off The Field By Ambulance

Buffalo Bills safety Taylor Rapp (undisclosed) exited Sunday's meeting with the New York Jets. Although there hasn't been anything official regarding his injury, he likely suffered a neck injury. The 25-year-old was placed on a backboard and removed from the field in an ambulance, so it's safe to say his day is over. Rapp entered […]

Marcus Epps Injures Neck, Won't Return Sunday

Las Vegas Raiders safety Marcus Epps (neck) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Miami Dolphins. He had logged one tackle and one fumble recovery prior to his departure. Chris Smith will take over at safety for the duration of Epps' absence.

Jamal Adams Won't Play In Week 11

Seattle Seahawks safety Jamal Adams (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Rams. He entered this weekend listed as questionable after missing Friday's practice. With Adams sidelined, the Seahawks are down a key defensive playmaker who has averaged 4.7 tackles per game this year. Julian Love should start at […]

Devin White Active In Week 11

Tampa Bay Buccaneers linebacker Devin White (foot) is officially active for Sunday's game against the San Francisco 49ers. He had been listed as questionable but was trending in the right direction after logging a full practice on Friday. His presence in the starting lineup will be key for the Bucs as they look to slow […]

Emmanuel Forbes Returns In Week 11

Washington Commanders cornerback Emmanuel Forbes (elbow) returned during the second quarter of Sunday's game against the New York Giants. He was initially listed as questionable to return but only missed a matter of minutes. He'll look to build on his two-tackle stat line as this NFC East battle heads into the second half.

Emmanuel Forbes Questionable To Return In Week 11

Washington Commanders cornerback Emmanuel Forbes (elbow) exited during the second quarter of Sunday's game against the New York Giants. He is officially questionable to return. At the time of his departure, he had logged two tackles. Forbes' injury is particularly noteworthy considering he was ejected from last Sunday's game, so hasn't logged a full game […]
