Baker Mayfield Plans To Play Sunday

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield (knee, foot, shoulder) plans to play in Week 11 against the winless Detroit Lions despite being "probably the most beat up" he's ever been. He's dealing with a torn labrum and broken bone in his left shoulder, a sore left foot and a bruised right knee. Mayfield suffered the knee […]

Aaron Rodgers Dealing With Toe Injury

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (toe) missed practice on Wednesday with a toe injury. The Packers only conducted a walkthrough practice, so they were likely just resting their star quarterback after he returned in Week 10 from a positive COVID-19 test. If Rodgers misses practice again on Thursday, then fantasy managers can begin worrying […]

Cam Newton Trending Toward Starting In Week 11

Carolina Panthers head coach Matt Rhule said that it's "trending toward" quarterback Cam Newton starting in Week 11 against the Washington Football Team, but he won't make an official announcement until later in the week. The Panthers will get both Newton and P.J. Walker ready and hasn't ruled out both playing in certain packages on […]

Kyler Murray Says He's "Pretty Close"

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (ankle) said he's "pretty close" on how his ankle is feeling as it pertains to his status for the Week 11 game against the Seattle Seahawks. Murray has missed the last two days due to a sprained ankle, but he was on the field at practice on Wednesday and could […]

Aaron Rodgers Not At Practice On Wednesday

Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers was absent from practice Wednesday. There is still some speculation about the reason for Rodgers absence, with some assuming that it may just be a rest day after Rodgers admitted to being exhausted after the win due to his recent COVID diagnosis. However, he was added to the injury report […]

Fantasy Football Warning Signals for Week 11

We now have ten weeks of football in the books, and the fantasy season will be over before we know it. If anything, this should be a reminder to slow down and enjoy the regular season. Once we are in the off-season, there’s no looking back. A lot happened last weekend. We saw some players […]

Zach Wilson Remains Day-To-Day

New York Jets rookie quarterback Zach Wilson (knee) remains "day-to-day," and head coach Robert Saleh won't speculate on if Wilson will be ready to return from a PCL sprain to play in Week 12 against the Houston Texans. The Jets announced on Wednesday that veteran Joe Flacco will start over Mike White in Week 11 […]

Lamar Jackson Sent Home With Illness

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson was sent home on Wednesday with a non-COVID-19-related illness, and he will not practice with the team. As long as Jackson is able to return to practice at some point this week, fantasy managers should feel confident that they'll have him available for a Week 11 date with the Chicago […]

Jared Goff Will Miss Practice Wednesday

Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell said that quarterback Jared Goff (oblique) is day-to-day and will miss practice on Wednesday. Backup Tim Boyle will take first-team repetitions under center for the Lions on Wednesday. Goff suffered an oblique injury in the Week 10 tie with the Pittsburgh Steelers, but he played through the issue and […]

Kyler Murray Returns To Practice On Wednesday

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (ankle) returned to practice on Wednesday after missing two weeks with an ankle injury. Reports are that Murray was just throwing passes, so we're not sure how much he tested his ankle while moving around; however, being back on the field on a Wednesday is a good sign for his […]

Joe Flacco To Start For Jets On Sunday

The New York Jets announced that they will start Joe Flacco at quarterback on Sunday as rookie first-rounder Zach Wilson (knee) still isn't 100% and Mike White was destroyed by the Bills last week. It's a bit of a surprise but really shouldn't change the way we view many of the Jets players from a […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 11) - Targets and Avoids

The Kansas City Chiefs are back. I wrote in my Week 8 column, there would not be a better chance to buy low on the Chiefs. It was after their 27-3 drubbing by the Titans. Since then, they've won three straight. It's been ugly; they barely beat the Giants, eked by a Packers team without […]

The Bucs came out flat after a bye and lost to the Washington Football Team, Cam Newton beat the league's best team, the Seahawks did not score a point in Russell Wilson's return, and the Steelers and Lions played to a tie. It was another strange week in the NFL. A lot of data was […]

Michael Florio's Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 11: D'Onta Foreman, Wayne Gallman, Bryan Edwards

Hopefully Week 10 was kinder to you and your fantasy lineups after the abomination that was Week 9. I especially hope that because it's not a great waiver week. It's a week where if the right player or two are out there on waivers you can make a big splash - but outside of that […]
