Cam Akers Not A Reliable Starter

Los Angeles Rams running back Cam Akers had his best game of the season last week, as he gained 60 yards and found the end zone twice. In Week 14, he will look to build on that momentum in a Thursday Night Game at home against the Las Vegas Raiders. The Raiders defense is not […]

Baker Mayfield Could Be Active On Thursday Night

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Baker Mayfield could suit up for the Rams' Thursday Night Football game against the Las Vegas Raiders, but coach Sean McVay has still not decided who will start. John Wolford, who started in last week's loss to the Seahawks, is nursing a neck injury and is day-to-day. He got in a […]

John Wolford Questionable To Face Raiders

Los Angeles Rams quarterback John Wolford (neck) is listed as questionable to play on Thursday night against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 14. Wolford played through his neck issue in the Week 13 loss to the Seattle Seahawks and went 14-for-26 for 178 yards, no touchdowns and two interceptions in just his third NFL […]

Aaron Donald Ruled Out For Thursday Night

The Los Angeles Rams ruled out All-Pro defensive tackle Aaron Donald (ankle) for the Thursday night game against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 14. Donald will miss his second straight game while dealing with a mild high-ankle sprain. Although it probably makes more sense to shut it down for the year with the Rams […]

The […]

Up to Week 13, it seemed we had yet to have a massive injury week. Well, that streak is over. I hope your fantasy team survived because many NFL teams didn’t.

Should I Add Baker Mayfield In Fantasy Football After He Joined The Rams?

Veteran quarterback Baker Mayfield has had a wild past eight months. The Cleveland Browns traded for Deshaun Watson in March.

Unfortunately, he suffered an ankle injury in Week 5 and started […]

John Wolford Limited Tuesday

Los Angeles Rams quarterback John Wolford (neck) was estimated as a limited participant in his team's walkthrough on Tuesday.

If Wolford is unable to start, the Rams could turn to the […]

His Week 14 performance against the Seattle […]

Baker Mayfield Claimed By The Rams
