Blake Bortles Could Have Rough Day Against Jets
Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles may be in for a rough outing against the New York Jets in Week 4. After failing to find the end zone in Week 3, Bortles takes on a Jets defense that has allowed the seventh-fewest fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks and held the Browns without a passing touchdown last […]
T.J. Yeldon Expected To Practice Thursday
Jacksonville Jaguars running back T.J. Yeldon (ankle) is expected to return to practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. With running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) trending in the right direction to make his return in Week 4 against the Jets, Yeldon might not have much value if he's the backup this Sunday. Yeldon has […]

T.J. Yeldon Unlikely To Practice Wednesday
Jacksonville Jaguars running back T.J. Yeldon (ankle) is unlikely to practice on Wednesday. Yeldon started and played through his ankle injury last weekend with Leonard Fournette (hamstring) inactive for a second straight week.

Leonard Fournette, Austin Seferian-Jenkins Expected To Practice
Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring), tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins (abdomen) and defensive end Calais Campbell (ankle) are all expected to practice on Wednesday.

Fantasy Football Risers and Fallers - Week 4
Whether due to their own play, the play of others, or injuries, players' stock increases and decreases on a weekly basis.

[…]
Warning Signals - RB / WR / TE
Every year, certain players are highly drafted in drafts by fantasy owners due to the belief that they will vastly outperform expectations throughout the season. Oftentimes, these players carry a significant amount of hype due to breakout potential, elite status, or lack of alternative options on their teams. However, with every player that does meet […]
Paxton Lynch Works Out For Jaguars
The Jacksonville Jaguars worked out free-agent quarterback Paxton Lynch, running back Jeremy Langford and wide receiver Chad Hansen on Tuesday. Lynch, a failed first-round pick in Denver, has worked out for a handful of teams so far but has yet to latch on with anyone. The Jags already have Blake Bortles and Cody Kessler on […]
Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups - All Positions
We know nothing. When I say "we," I am referring collectively to all of us who follow the NFL and play fantasy football on a regular basis of course. We were certain the Vikings-Bills game would be a blowout... but not in Buffalo's favor. The Patriots weren't going to let former assistant coach Matt Patricia […]

Leonard Fournette, T.J. Yeldon Are Day-To-Day
Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Doug Marrone said running backs Leonard Fournette (hamstring) and T.J. Yeldon (ankle) will be day-to-day this week. Fournette practiced on a limited basis last week but sat out for the second straight game. If he can get in a full practice at some point this week, he should be good to […]
T.J. Yeldon (RB, JAC) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 50% of Leagues ANALYSIS: At the onset of the season, I recommended that anyone who utilized a first-round pick on Leonard Fournette should also secure T.J. Yeldon as a handcuff. While that plan has been partially undermined due to modified workload distribution for Yeldon and Corey Grant, Yeldon can […]
Corey Grant (RB, JAC) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: If you are a Leonard Fournette owner who experienced having one of your competitors pilfer T.J. Yeldon, you don't have to lament your inability to secure the fourth-year back. Instead, you can focus your efforts on targeting Corey Grant for your arsenal of […]
Keelan Cole Disappoints In Week 3
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Keelan Cole had one of his best career outings in Week 2 against the Patriots, but he wasn't able to build on that in Jacksonville's Week 3 loss to the Titans. Cole was targeted nine times, hauling in five of those passes for 40 yards. It was part of a rough […]
T.J. Yeldon The Bright Spot For Jaguars Against Titans
Jacksonville Jaguars running back T.J. Yeldon was one of the only bright spots for fantasy owners in the Jaguars Week 3 loss to the Titans. Yeldon carried the ball seven times for 44 yards while also leading the team in receptions and receiving yards, catching six passes for 46 yards. Yeldon's fantasy value is wrapped […]
Blake Bortles Has Forgettable Week 3
Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles was relatively ineffective in Jacksonville's 9-6 loss to the Tennessee Titans on Sunday, finishing with 155 passing yards on 21-for-34 passing. He added 27 rushing yards on five carries. It was a rough day for the Jaguars offensively, who play the Jets next Sunday. Bortles should have an easier time […]
T.J. Yeldon, Jalen Ramsey Playing Sunday
Jacksonville Jaguars running back T.J. Yeldon (ankle) and cornerback Jalen Ramsey (ankle) are both active for Week 3 against the Titans. With Leonard Fournette (hamstring) out for the second straight week, expect Yeldon and Corey Grant to get the work in the backfield for the Jaguars. Yeldon is the more attractive flex play for fantasy […]
Leonard Fournette Inactive Against Titans
Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) is inactive for Week 3 against the Titans. It's the second straight week that Fournette will not play, which is obviously a huge disappointment to his fantasy owners.

Week 3 Lineup Questions - Fantasy Football Pop Quiz
Last year about this time, I challenged myself to ask the question about fantasy players: do I believe something, or can I prove it?
