Dwayne Haskins Throws Two Picks In Preseason Opener
Washington Redskins quarterback Dwayne Haskins completed eight of 14 pass attempts for 117 yards in Thursday's preseason opener against Cleveland. He added 17 rushing yards on two attempts, but he was also sacked twice and threw two interceptions. Haskins saw the most work of any Redskins quarterback, which is not surprising given his lack of […]
Drew Lock Struggles To Stay Consistent Versus Seahawks
Denver Broncos Quarterback Drew Lock was given the reigns to the team on Thursday night against the Seattle Seahawks, handling the Quarterback duties after the first two possessions. The Missouri product showed why he was taken in the second round with a few nice plays throughout the game, but it is also clear why he […]
Backup QB's, Others Impress as Titans Beat Eagles 27-10
Tennessee Titans quarterbacks Ryan Tannehill and Logan Woodside both threw two touchdowns and combined for 268 yards. Woodside was most impressive of all, completing 15 of 20 passes and getting some action on the ground. Kalif Raymond, WR, has been gaining traction in camp and backed it up last night (6/80). He could end up […]
Josh Allen Leads Pass-Heavy Attack On Thursday
The Buffalo Bills allowed their quarterback Josh Allen to let loose in his 2019 preseason debut on Thursday. Passing plays were called on 15 of the 17 plays during Allen's first two drives in the game. He wound up completing six of 11 passes for 66 yards on the game before Matt Barkley took over. […]
Ty Johnson Plays Well In First Preseason Game
Detroit Lions running back Ty Johnson was able to put together two solid runs in Week 1 of preseason despite the Lions offense getting thrashed by the Patriots defense all game. With three attempts, Johnson was able to collect 22 yards, with a long of 17 yards. His long run displayed his outside speed; beating […]
RotoBaller Expert Mock Recap (Half-PPR)
Popular sleepers casually dismissed. No-name rookies selected in the latter stages. Drew Brees available in the 14th round. This must be an expert mock! The good folks at Fleaflicker recently hosted an expert mock draft including 12 of our finest fantasy football analysts. I have done a couple of early drafts already but much has […]
David Fales Shut Down In First Preseason Matchup
Detroit Lions quarterback David Fales was limited to just 14 attempts for 62 yards and an interception in Thursday night's preseason matchup against the Patriots. Fales is listed as the third quarterback on the Lion's depth chart and last nights performance certainly didn't help his cause. David Fales will continue to be fantasy irrelevant unless […]

DeShone Kizer Starts For Green Bay In Opener
Green Bay Packers quarterback Deshone Kizer started for the Green Bay Packers in the preseason opener against the Houston Texans. Kizer threw the ball 13 times completing eight passes for 102 yards and a single touchdown, also adding three yards on the ground. Kizer was given limited opportunity to impress- but certainly looked impressive in […]
Chase Daniel Plays It Safe In Preseason Opener
Chicago Bears quarterback Chase Daniel completed 11-for-13 passes for 120 yards in the Bears preseason loss to the Panthers. The veteran mostly played it safe, mostly settling for short-yardage passes and protecting the football. Daniel was forced into action last season for two games and performed well in one game while struggling in the next. […]
Daniel Jones Throws Touchdown In Debut
New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones went a perfect 5-for-5 for 67 yards and a touchdown against the Jets on Thursday, connecting on a 12 yard pass to Bennie Fowler late in the first quarter. While this performance won’t completely silence the collective groans of those in the New York/New Jersey area, it was a […]
Cody Kessler Completes Three Passes in the First Preseason Game
Philadelphia Eagles number three quarterback Cody Kessler completed three passes in six tries on Thursday, going for 12 scoreless yards. It wasn't a significant performance by Kessler, but it was significant because the guy right ahead of him on the depth chart, Nate Sudfeld, could miss time with a wrist injury. Kessler would be the […]
Nate Sudfeld Injured in the First Preseason Game
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Nate Sudfeld suffered a left wrist injury and was forced to leave Thursday's preseason game. Sudfeld fell awkwardly and bent his non-throwing arm. Before that, he had completed 10-of-18 passes for 177 yards and a touchdown. He was set to be the backup to starter Carson Wentz, but if he has to […]
Josh Allen Plays Two Series Against Indy
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Josh Allen played two series against the Colts on Thursday, finishing the night going 6-for-11 for 66 yards. Though this was a small glimpse at whether or not the sophomore signal-caller has improved over the offseason, things are looking semi-promising at the moment. Outside of two-quarterback leagues, Allen has limited value […]
Ryan Tannehill Sharp In Titans Debut
Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill looked like a worthy investment in his Titans debut Thursday against the Philadelphia Eagles. Tannehill was 12-for-16 passing for 130 yards and two touchdown strikes. The offense moved much more effectively with Tannehill under center than it did earlier in the night with starting quarterback Marcus Mariota. While there is […]
Brian Hoyer Connects For Two Touchdowns In Romp
New England Patriots quarterback Brian Hoyer completed 12-of-14 passes for 147 yards and two touchdown passes in the Patriots 31-3 preseason win over the Lions. The Patriots was sharp out of the chute, delivering two second-half touchdowns to ice the game. If Hoyer sees the field this season, then the entire Patriots offense will be […]
Marcus Mariota Sees Limited Action In Preseason Opener
Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota played only one series in the team's preseason opener against the Philadelphia Eagles, going 4-for-8 for just 24 yards. While Mariota's performance was not necessarily inspiring for fantasy owners, he did look sharp on his lone drive and was hurt by a couple drops from receivers Taywan Taylor and Darius […]
Matt Schaub Bounces Back On Thursday
Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Schaub had a solid night on Thursday against Miami in the team’s second preseason game of the season. After going just 4-for-14 for 10 yards and an interception against the Denver Broncos during the league’s annual Hall of Fame Game, the veteran was productive against the Dolphins, finishing with 172 yards […]
Joe Webb Plays Entire Game
With Deshaun Watson sitting out, A.J. McCarron injured, and Jordan Ta'amu just signed yesterday, Houston Texans quarterback Joe Webb did something you rarely see in the preseason: he quarterbacked an entire game. Webb was 25-for-40 throwing the ball for 286 yards, a touchdown, and two picks. Ta'amu will likely play in the next one, but […]
Baker Mayfield Looks Good In Preseason Debut
Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield looked good in his team's preseason debut against Washington on Thursday. Mayfield completed five of his six pass attempts for 77 yards and a touchdown in his lone offensive series. The second-year signal-caller looked sharp, throwing just one incompletion on the evening, which came on his first attempt. Mayfield leads […]
Lamar Jackson Throws Touchdown In Preseason Opener
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson got to play a short time in Thursday's preseason rout of the Jacksonville Jaguars, and in that time Jackson was 4-for-6 throwing the ball for 59 yards and a touchdown pass to Willie Snead. Jackson didn't run the ball, as the team isn't going to put him in harm's way […]
Gardner Minshew Has Mediocre Debut
Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Gardner Minshew's preseason debut didn't go the way he was hoping. The rookie was 7-for-14 throwing the ball for 46 yards. He didn't throw a touchdown or an interception. Minshew also added three rushing yards on two carries. It wasn't a great performance, but it did surpass that of his competition for […]
Kyler Murray Impressive In Debut
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray played one series against the Los Angeles Chargers in his unofficial debut. The 22-year-old went 6-for-7, accumulating his 49 passing yards mostly on short passes to various receivers, with his longest completion of the night going to running back David Johnson for 14 yards. Though he took a sack, he […]
Matt Ryan Not Dressed For Meeting With Dolphins
Earlier in the week, Atlanta Falcons head coach Dan Quinn said that quarterback Matt Ryan would play a few series in Thursday's preseason opener against the Dolphins. But with rain forecasted for the game, it appears the Falcons are playing it safe and resting Ryan. Matt Schaub and Matt Simms will split the snaps in […]
Jaguars Resting Most Starters Against Ravens
The Jacksonville Jaguars have a long list of inactives for Thursday's preseason meeting with the Ravens. Quarterback Nick Foles won't make his Jaguars debut. Neither will wide receiver Chris Conley, while running back Leonard Fournette and wide receivers Marqise Lee, Dede Westbrook, D.J. Chark, and Terrelle Pryor. The Jaguars are taking resting their starters in […]
Everything Is On The Line For Daniel Jones
New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones has been the subject of much scrutiny from both the media and fans alike since being selected as the team’s first-round draft pick, going sixth overall in the NFL Draft earlier this year. Thursday is the first test for Jones coming out of camp where he has made some […]

Preseason NFL DFS Lineup Picks for DraftKings and FanDuel (8/8/19)
After a small sample of NFL action that saw the Denver Broncos narrowly defeat the Atlanta Falcons during the league’s annual Hall of Fame Game, the preseason officially kicks off on Thursday. With 11 games scheduled, we will get a better idea of who will make the cut as teams look to scale down their […]
Texans Sign Jordan Ta'amu
The Houston Texans signed quarterback Jordan Ta'amu on Wednesday. With A.J. McCarron (thumb) likely out for the preseason, Ta'amu is nothing more than an extra body to play in preseason games, so this move can be ignored in all season-long formats. The biggest impact comes in preseason DFS contests, as Joe Webb won't be forced […]
