BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 18% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Donte Moncrief may be in a perfect buy-low situation.

Leonard Fournette Suspended One Game
The NFL suspended Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette for one game without pay after his ejection for fighting with Bills defensive end Shaq Lawson in Week 12. It's been that kind of year for Fournette, as he missed multiple games with leg injuries earlier this year. With Fournette out against the Colts, Carlos Hyde […]
Andrew Norwell Going On IR
Jacksonville Jaguars offensive guard Andrew Norwell (ankle) will go on Injured Reserve after being carted to the locker room in Week 12 with an ankle injury, according to head coach Doug Marrone. Norwell signed a five-year deal with the team as a free agent in the offseason. His loss for the rest of the year […]
Blake Bortles Benched, Cody Kessler To Start In Week 13
Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles will not start in Week 13 against the Colts, and instead Cody Kessler will get the start.

Jaguars Fire Offensive Coordinator
The Jacksonville Jaguars fired offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett on Monday, according to sources. The Jaguars fell to 3-8 and into last place in the AFC South with their seventh straight loss on Sunday to the Bills. Jacksonville ranks 22nd in yards per game (346.5), 22nd in passing yards per game (232.3), 16th in rushing yards […]
Andrew Norwell To Miss A Few Weeks
Jacksonville Jaguars offensive guard Andrew Norwell (ankle) is expected to be sidelined "a few weeks" with what was originally diagnosed as a sprained ankle, according to a source. He will undergo an MRI exam to determine the full extent of the injury. It's bad news for both quarterback Blake Bortles and running back Leonard Fournette […]
Donte Moncrief Has One Catch In Week 12
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Donte Moncrief caught just one of his four targets in Sunday's loss to the Buffalo Bills, finishing with 29 yards. With quarterback Blake Bortles struggling, the entire Jaguars passing game is downgraded, and Moncrief is an incredibly risky fantasy option moving forward. He's shown big play potential, but it's not enough […]
Dede Westbrook Catches Touchdown Against Bills
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dede Westbrook caught three passes for 44 yards and a touchdown in Jacksonville's Week 12 loss to the Buffalo Bills. He had a 43-yard run as well. It was Westbrook's fourth touchdown catch of the year, but it continues a trend of the second-year wideout failing to reach 50 receiving yards. […]
Leonard Fournette Scores Twice, Gets Ejected
Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette rushed for 95 yards and a pair of touchdowns on 18 carries in Sunday's loss to the Buffalo Bills. The second-year back added 13 receiving yards on three catches as well, but fantasy owners missed out on a chance for more from Fournette when he was ejected in the […]
Blake Bortles Has Another Poor Game
Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles continues to struggle, going 12-for-23 passing the ball in Sunday's loss to the Bills and finishing with 127 yards, a touchdown, and a pair of interceptions. Bortles has now finished with single-digit fantasy points in three of the last five games, and it's time to worry about Bortles long and […]
Leonard Fournette Ejected Against Bills
Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette was ejected from the game against the Bills in Week 12 in the third quarter. Fournette got into a tussle with Bills defensive end Shaq Lawson after a Jaguars touchdown. The good news for Fournette's owners is that he had 18 carries for 95 yards and two touchdowns before […]
D.J. Chark, Marcell Dareus Out Against Bills
Jacksonville Jaguars rookie wide receiver D.J. Chark (quadriceps) and defensive tackle Marcell Dareus (back) are out for Week 12 against the Bills. Chark has only 14 catches on 30 targets for 174 yards this year, so he has been a non-factor for fantasy owners. Dareus' absence on the interior will be a loss for Jacksonville's […]
Week 12 Start/Sit: Monday Night Football Matchup Analysis
We haven't seen the Oilers in action since 1998, but they're still very alive in my heart.

Be honest, what's better: Thanksgiving dinner on the night itself or enjoying the leftovers the next day?

Thanksgiving is already here as the NFL season continues its whirlwind pace.

And now […]
Week 12 Consistency Reports - Start/Sit Decisions
Week 12 is a weird week for fantasy football. The short week for six teams made a lot of players tough to trust, and now owners are left searching for value on a very reduced Sunday slate. We have also seen the Rams and Chiefs lost from the week as they are on a bye. […]
Dede Westbrook A Tough Play Against Bills
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dede Westbrook hauled in two catches on four targets in Week 11 versus the Steelers and hopes to improve on those numbers in Week 12 against the Buffalo Bills.

Donte Moncrief Faces Strong Bills Defense
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Donte Moncrief disappointed any owners who started him in Week 11 versus the Steelers and is likely to do much of the same in Week 12.

Blake Bortles In A Bind Versus Bills
Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles is coming off an abysmal performance against a solid Pittsburgh Steelers defense and heads into Week 13 with an even more daunting matchup against the Buffalo Bills.
