The Denver Broncos hired Mike Sullivan as their new quarterbacks coach and Curtis Modkins as their new running backs coach.

Alvin Kamara Ready for Playoff Spotlight

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara may already have Rookie of the Year honors wrapped up, but now he is on the cusp of playing his first playoff game.

Devonta Freeman, Tevin Coleman Limited Wednesday

Atlanta Falcons running back Devonta Freeman (knee) and wide receiver Taylor Gabriel (hamstring) were both limited in practice Wednesday. Freeman didn't practice Tuesday, so this is an upgrade. The Falcons are just likely resting their lead running back ahead of the Wild-Card matchup with the Saints this weekend. Freeman was held to just 36 yards […]

Jay Ajayi Not Practicing on Wednesday

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jay Ajayi (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. The Eagles have a first-round bye, so there is very little concern about Ajayi missing the first day of practice. Coach Doug Pederson said the team is just giving Ajayi some rest and that he is not at all concerned about the running […]

Mike Gillislee Not At Practice Wednesday

New England Patriots running back Mike Gillislee (knee) was not seen at practice Wednesday. After filling in in Week 16 and scoring a touchdown, Gillislee was surprisingly inactive in the regular season finale. With Rex Burkhead (knee) expected back for the Divisional Round following a first-round bye, it's likely that Gillislee will once again be […]

Rex Burkhead Returns To Practice

New England Patriots running back Rex Burkhead (knee) was back at practice Wednesday after missing the final two games of the regular season. Burkhead was allowed to rest up to end the regular season, and he'll have another week to do so with the Patriots on a first-round bye in the Wild-Card round. Burkhead may […]

Bengals Retain Bill Lazor

The Cincinnati Bengals and head coach Marvin Lewis have decided to retain interim offensive coordinator Bill Lazor, giving him the position full time. Lazor was promoted to offensive coordinator two games into the season after the Bengals had failed to score a touchdown. Without organized team activities or preseason or anything else, Lazor was able […]

2017 Final Consistency Report - Running Backs

I am a mixed bag of emotions because of the end of the 2017 season. I am excited for the NFL playoffs and a chance for the my hometown team, the Pittsburgh Steelers, to win their third Super Bowl in my lifetime. I am sad because the regular season is at an end and with […]

DraftKings DFS Risers and Fallers - Wild Card Round

Whether due to their own play, the play of others, or injuries, players' stock increases and decreases on a weekly basis. Perhaps more than any other, the NFL is a league that experiences ups and downs at a rapid pace. With only four games, there’s little room for error and seemingly endless opportunities for improvement. […]

Lions Interview Jim Bob Cooter

The Detroit Lions have officially interviewed offensive coordinator Jim Bob Cooter for their vacant head coaching position. One day after interviewing defensive coordinator Teryl Austin, the Lions seems to be giving their other internal options a crack at the position. The Lions have also considered a variety of defensive and offensive coordinators around the league, […]

Bengals Re-Sign Head Coach Marvin Lewis

The Cincinnati Bengals have officially brought back head coach Marvin Lewis on a two-year contract. Lewis has been the head coach of the Bengals since 2002. He has made the playoffs seven times in Cincinnati but has yet to win a playoff game. The Bengals went 7-9 last year and will rely on rookie running […]

Leonard Fournette Has Fantastic Matchup For Wild-Card Round

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette will have an excellent matchup against a Bills defense that has allowed the most fantasy points to opposing backs this season. Since Week 13, they have allowed at least 75 rushing yards to six different players. They also have allowed 19 rushing touchdowns this season and Fournette should see […]

Carson Palmer Officially Retires

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Carson Palmer has officially retired one day after head coach Bruce Arians announced his own retirement. This move was not completely unexpected, as Palmer had considered retirement throughout the season. With Arizona seemingly losing several key pieces this offseason, an acquisition via free agency or the draft at the position is almost […]

Charcandrick West Back To Full Practice

Kansas City Chiefs running back Charcandrick West (illness), who missed the Week 17 game, is practicing in full Tuesday. The Chiefs likely held West out in a meaningless game against the Broncos, and it looks like he's back on track to return as Kareem Hunt's backup for the Wild-Card round this weekend against the Titans. […]

Jonathan Stewart A Touchdown-Dependent Option For Wild-Card Weekend

Carolina Panthers running back Jonathan Stewart will need a touchdown to be fantasy viable this weekend against the Saints. Stewart's numbers this season have been abysmal, averaging only 3.4 yards per carry and failing to produce most of the season despite 10-plus touches per game. He will go up against a Saints run defense that […]

Christian McCaffrey Hopes To Continue Success Against New Orleans

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey will make his playoff debut this Sunday against the Saints. The rookie has produced in both games against the Saints this year, putting up 101 receiving yards in Week 3 and a touchdown reception in Week 13. The Saints defense allowed the 17th most fantasy points this season to […]

DeMarco Murray Not Practicing Tuesday

Tennessee Titans running back DeMarco Murray (knee) is not practicing Tuesday. After sitting out Week 17 with a torn ligament in his knee, it's highly unlikely Murray would have much of a role in the Wild-Card game against the Chiefs this weekend, if he's even active at all. We would expect the Titans to ride […]

Julio Jones, Devonta Freeman Not Practicing Tuesday

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones (ankle, ribs) and running back Devonta Freeman (knee) were both held out of practice Tuesday. It's likely that the Falcons are just resting their top two offensive players ahead of the Wild-Card matchup with the Rams this weekend. Jones has been fighting nagging injuries lately, as usual, but he's […]

Another Name Added To Cardinals Coaching Search

The Arizona Cardinals have added Falcons special teams coordinator Keith Armstrong to their list for head coach. His interview should take place after the team's wild-card game this Saturday. Armstrong's name joins a growing list of individuals who will hope to take over the reins from former head coach Bruce Arians and likely change the […]

Cardinals Are Slated To Interview James Bettcher For Head Coaching Role

The Arizona Cardinals are expected to interview current defensive coordinator James Bettcher for the role of head coach as early as Wednesday. This will be the team's first interview for the position and demonstrates the beginning of the transition from the Bruce Arians era to a new system. It remains to be seen how this […]

Chiefs Put Akeem Hunt On Injured Reserve

The Kansas City Chiefs placed running back Akeem Hunt (ankle) on Injured Reserve on Tuesday. Hunt was injured in the Week 17 regular season finale against the Broncos. With Charcandrick West (illness) being inactive in Week 17 and questionable for the Wild-Card round against Tennessee, the Chiefs re-signed C.J. Spiller to strengthen the depth behind […]

Ameer Abdullah's Future in Detroit Uncertain

Detroit Lions running back Ameer Abdullah faces a tough offseason after seeing himself demoted to third-string running back toward the end of 2017. He started the year as the clear-cut No. 1 back but eventually lost playing time to Theo Riddick and undrafted rookie Tion Green. It seems likely that the Lions will pursue upgrades […]

Chris Thompson Will Be Ready For Training Camp

Washington Redskins running back Chris Thompson (leg) faces a four- to six-month recovery from the fractured fibula he suffered in a Week 11 loss to the Saints, but he will be healthy well ahead of Redskins training camp in 2018. Thompson was on his way to a career year as the most productive weapon in the […]

Chiefs Re-Sign C.J. Spiller

The Kansas City Chiefs re-signed running back C.J. Spiller on Tuesday, according to sources. Spiller has all of two rushes for the Chiefs in 2017, and that came back on Oct. 19 against the Raiders. With both backups Charcandrick West (illness) and Akeem Hunt (ankle, shoulder) dinged up, Spiller could have to serve as Kareem […]
