Colt McCoy Throws For 31 Yards In Relief

New York Giants quarterback Colt McCoy went 6-for-10 passing for 31 yards in relief of Daniel Jones (hamstring) in a win over the Bengals. McCoy didn't throw a touchdown nor record a turnover and added seven rushing yards in the win. Jones is scheduled to undergo further tests on Monday, but early reports indicate Jones […]

Philip Rivers Throws For 295 Yards

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Philip Rivers had a decent fantasy performance against the Titans, throwing for 295 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception. It was a blowout win for the Titans, so Rivers threw the ball over 40 times. Rivers completed just 57 percent of his passes, which was his lowest of the season. This is […]

Jaguars Fire GM Dave Caldwell

The Jacksonville Jaguars have reportedly fired general manager Dave Caldwell. Caldwell has been the GM for the Jags since 2013 and at one point had built a strong defense, but Caldwell's failure to find a franchise quarterback has loomed over the team. Someone else will have the task of finding the team's future passer in […]

Matt Ryan Posts Season-Low 185 Yards

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan finished 22-for-39 for 185 yards, two touchdowns, and one pick in the blowout win over the Raiders. Ryan posted a season-low in yards despite the huge win and now has five touchdowns and five interceptions in the past four games. The QB generally hasn't been as explosive in fantasy this […]

Anthony Castonzo Avoided Major Injury

Despite exiting Sunday's game against Tennessee with a knee injury, it appears Indianapolis Colts left tackle Anthony Castonzo only suffered an MCL sprain, not a serious knee injury. Even if Castonzo misses a little time, he'll be back this season to provide some key pass blocking for quarterback Philip Rivers. If he misses some time, […]

Kyler Murray Fails To Score Touchdown In Rough Week 12 Outing

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray failed to score a touchdown for the first time this year in Week 12 against the New England Patriots. Murray completed 23 of his 34 passes for 170 yards and an interception and added 31 rushing yards in the game. Murray had been dealing with a right shoulder injury over […]

Drew Lock Issues Apology For Not Wearing Mask

Denver Broncos quarterback Drew Lock (COVID Protocol) was forced to sit out this week's game due to being in contact with fellow quarterback Jeff Driskel (COVID), who tested positive for COVID-19. On Sunday, Lock issued a public apology, stating that he and his fellow teammates Brett Rypien and Blake Bortles were not cautious enough, taking […]

Daniel Jones Set For MRI On Monday

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones (hamstring) suffered a hamstring injury in the team's Week 12 game against the Cincinnati Bengals. He was relieved in the game by Colt McCoy, who helped close out a 19-17 victory. Jones is scheduled to have an MRI on Monday, which will help inform the team on the extent […]

Teddy 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. Bridgewater was inaccurate throughout the contest and got off to a rough start, completing just two of his first nine attempts. To make matters worse, he missed a wide-open […]

Justin Herbert Only Tosses One Touchdown In Week 12

Los Angeles Chargers rookie quarterback Justin Herbert struggled in Week 12 versus the Buffalo Bills. Herbert was 31-for-52 on the afternoon for 316 yards and tossed one touchdown. It was the first time since Week 3 that the rookie didn't put up multiple touchdowns. Managers shouldn't worry about Sunday's outing and should chalk it up […]

Kirk Cousins Leads Vikings To Thrilling Comeback Win

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins completed 34-of-45 passes for 307 and three touchdowns in the Vikings 28-27 comeback win over the Panthers in Week 12. The Vikings went into the fourth quarter down 21-10 but Cousins and Co. delivered 18 fourth-quarter points to keep their playoff hopes alive. Cousins found rookie phenom Justin Jefferson for […]

Tua Tagovailoa Was Close To Being Ready In Week 12

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (thumb) was inactive for the team's Week 12 game against the New York Jets due to a thumb injury. Ryan Fitzpatrick went on to make the start in his place. After the game, Dolphins head coach Brian Flores stated that Tagovailoa was close to being ready for the game before […]

Baker Mayfield Throws Two TDs In Week 12

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield completed 19 of 29 passes for 258 yards and two touchdowns in a 27-25 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 12. Mayfield broke a streak of three straight games without a touchdown pass when he connected with Jarvis Landry for a five-yard score in the first quarter. He then […]

Colt McCoy In For Injured Daniel Jones

New York Giants backup quarterback Colt McCoy is currently in for the injured Daniel Jones. It looked likes Jones is dealing with a hamstring injury, putting his return to the game in question. Jones is 16-for-26 for 211 yards so far. If he's unable to return, McCoy's likely to hurt the prospects of the rest […]

Colts Tackle Anthony Castonzo Ruled Out

Indianapolis Colts left tackle Anthony Castonzo (knee) has been ruled out for the rest of his team's Week 12 contest against the Titans. It's a big loss for this Colts offense, which will now have more trouble keeping quarterback Philip Rivers upright. If Castonzo misses time, drop Colts offensive players a few spots in your […]

Sam Darnold Back, Adam Gase Will Call Plays

With New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold back at quarterback this week, the team will also see head coach Adam Gase take back over playcalling duties. It'll be interesting to see if Gase changes anything for the Jets. Considering his reputation as kryptonite to offensive players, we wouldn't be staking our fantasy hopes on Darnold […]

Philip Rivers Active For Week 12

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Philip Rivers (toe) is active for Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans. After missing practice time during the week, there was some concern for Rivers, but he'll be good to go. The Titans Defense has had some issues this season and Rivers already had a 300-yard game against them, so if you're […]

Gardner Minshew II Remains Inactive

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Gardner Minshew II (thumb) will miss his fourth consecutive game on Sunday when the Jags face the Cleveland Browns. Mike Glennon will start while Jake Luton, who started the past three games, will back Glennon up. Minshew was struggling when healthy, but it's become clear that this passing offense barely functions with […]

Tua Tagovailoa Inactive For Week 12

As expected, Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (thumb) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Jets and will potentially miss more time as well. Tagovailoa is 3-1 as a starter, but has struggled at times to move the ball. Ryan Fitzpatrick slides into the starting role this week and should upgrade this offense's fantasy upside […]

Kendall Hinton Officially Elevated To Active Roster

Denver Broncos wide receiver Kendall Hinton has officially been elevated to the team's active roster and is set to start at quarterback on Sunday against the New Orleans Saints. A quarterback for part of his time at Wake Forest, Hinton isn't someone you should look to play at quarterback this week, but on platforms where […]

Tua Tagovailoa Could Miss Multiple Games

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 […]
