Pushing Your Luck In The Playoffs?

Andrew Luck returned to the NFL with a bang in 2018. The first few games were a little bit shaky with the team averaging just 20 points per game in the first three weeks. However, things started to click in Week 4, and since then the Colts averaged 33.1 points per game between Weeks 4 and […]

Cody Kessler Faces Tough Tennessee Defense

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Cody Kessler had an abysmal performance in his first week as the starting signal caller for the Jags in Week 13.

Aaron Rodgers Gets Chance At Fresh Start

Whatever fantasy football mystique that had surrounded Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has disappeared over the course of this year. Rodgers was generally viewed as someone who should be started in any circumstance every single week and as someone who had a preposterously high weekly floor. The past two weeks proved those assumptions wrong. […]

Kenny Golladay, Matthew Stafford Limited In Practice

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kenny Golladay (quadriceps), quarterback Matthew Stafford (back) and wide receiver Brandon Powell (calf) were all limited in practice on Wednesday.

Deshaun Watson, Keke Coutee Limited

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson (shoulder) and rookie wide receiver Keke Coutee (hamstring) were both limited in practice on Wednesday. It's a new injury for Watson, but he should be fine to suit up in Week 14 against the Colts, where he'll be a low-end QB1. Watson hasn't thrown the ball much in recent weeks […]

Cam Newton A Good Start This Week Against Browns

Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton is a good start for fantasy owners in what should be a game where he returns to form. Newton struggled in his last game, and his passes looked to not have the velocity they normally would, throwing four interceptions.

Sam Darnold Returns To Full Practice

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady will head to the one place in Week 14 that has seemed to cause him fits throughout his career: Miami.

Colt McCoy Could Be Out 2-3 Weeks

Washington Redskins head coach Jay Gruden said that quarterback Colt McCoy (leg) had surgery to fix a fractured right fibula on Tuesday, and two to three weeks would be "wishful thinking."
