Taysom Hill, Ty Montgomery Not Present Thursday

New Orleans Saints quarterback Taysom Hill (foot) and wide receiver Ty Montgomery (finger) were both absent at practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Hill and Montgomery are both trending in the wrong direction for the Week 11 game against the Philadelphia Eagles and will likely need to get back on the practice field […]

Alvin Kamara Held Out Of Practice Thursday

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (knee) wasn't on the practice field on Thursday during the period open to the media. It's a downgrade after Kamara was limited in Wednesday's practice after being inactive in the Week 10 loss to the Tennessee Titans. It's possible that the 26-year-old star running back had a setback, […]

Ty Montgomery Misses Practice Wednesday With Injury

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Ty Montgomery (finger, hand) was unable to suit up for Wednesday's practice after having sustained a gruesome left pinkie finger injury last Sunday. Montgomery has traditionally logged a limited role in the Saints offense this season, but he has been an important depth piece, especially should running back Alvin Kamara […]

Brian Johnson - Week 11 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New Orleans Saints kicker Brian Johnson is not a viable play against the Eagles this week. Johnson has been a perfect 8-for-8 in field goals this season but is 5-for-8 in extra points while missing two critical extra-point attempts last week. The Eagles are stingy against fantasy kickers and Johnson is still a rookie, so […]

Saints Defense A Low-End Starting Option Against Eagles

The New Orleans Saints defense is a low-end starting option against Jalen Hurts and the Eagles in Week 11. Though the unit has allowed at least 23 points in the last three games, it has recorded 20 sacks, 11 picks, and seven forced fumbles on the season. This unit is certainly worth streaming this week […]

Adam Trautman - Week 11 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New Orleans Saints tight end Adam Trautman is a TE2 option against the Eagles. The TE has a least six targets in the last three games and now has at least 32 yards in four of the past five games. While he isn't an elite and generally consistent option, his recent sample size is encouraging […]

Deonte Harris - Week 11 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Deonte Harris is a flex option against the Eagles in Week 11. The WR has been the most consistent on the team's receiving corps, now having at least 52 yards and four targets in four of the past five games. Compared to Tre'Quan Smith and Marquez Callaway, Harris has shown […]

Tre'Quan Smith - Week 11 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith is only a flex option, at best, in Week 11. In four games this season, the 25-year-old has only posted more than 50 yards once. He was expected to have an elevated role with Michael Thomas out, but that hasn't panned out in this low-volume Saints offense. The […]

Marquez Callaway - Week 11 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Marquez Callaway is only a flex option, at best, against the Eagles in Week 11. Callaway has struggled in the past four contests, posting no more than 37 yards in any game. In general, the WR hasn't produced big numbers at all this season with the exception of a couple […]

Mark Ingram II - Week 11 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New Orleans Saints running back Mark Ingram II is in the RB2 conversation against the Eagles. Ingram posted his best numbers since returning to New Orleans in Week 10, getting 47 rushing yards and a score along with 61 receiving yards. That was due to starter Alvin Kamara missing the game because of a knee […]

Trevor Siemian - Week 11 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New Orleans Saints quarterback Trevor Siemian should not be considered a good start in single-QB leagues in Week 11. The journeyman has done fine for the Saints, posting at least 249 yards in the last two contests along with five total touchdowns on the season, but he hasn't been explosive and has a history of […]

Taysom Hill Misses Practice With Foot Injury

New Orleans Saints quarterback Taysom Hill (foot) and wide receiver Ty Montgomery (hand) both missed practice on Wednesday. Hill returned from a two-week concussion absence in Week 9 to play 17 offensive snaps. Trevor Siemian got another start in the Week 10 loss to the Tennessee Titans, while Hill saw a slightly bigger role (21 […]

Tony Jones Jr. Returns To Practice

New Orleans Saints running back Tony Jones Jr. (ankle) was designated to return from Injured Reserve on Wednesday, which opened his 21-day practice window. The Saints backfield is getting healthier. More importantly, Alvin Kamara (knee) returned to the practice field as well after missing the Week 10 loss to the Tennessee Titans. In four games […]

Alvin Kamara Back at Practice on Wednesday

New Orleans running back Alvin Kamara (knee) was back at practice on Wednesday after missing Sunday's game. Being back at practice this early in the week is obviously a good sign that Kamara will suit up in a tough matchup against the Eagles. If he plays, he should obviously be in your lineup; however, the […]

Snap Count and Usage Analysis for Week 11

Snap counts are not the be-all-end-all for fantasy production, but they paint a clear picture with the necessary context. Every snap is an opportunity for a player to make his presence felt and if their snaps go up or down, you get an idea of what the team thinks of their skill set. A running […]

Key Fantasy Football Data from Week 10

The Bucs came out flat after a bye and lost to the Washington Football Team, Cam Newton beat the league's best team, the Seahawks did not score a point in Russell Wilson's return, and the Steelers and Lions played to a tie. It was another strange week in the NFL. A lot of data was […]

Michael Florio's Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 11: D'Onta Foreman, Wayne Gallman, Bryan Edwards

Hopefully Week 10 was kinder to you and your fantasy lineups after the abomination that was Week 9. I especially hope that because it's not a great waiver week. It's a week where if the right player or two are out there on waivers you can make a big splash - but outside of that […]

This is on top of the ongoing Rob Gronkowski injury saga. There have been worse weeks […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week 11 Lightning Round

We're in the thick of November and those playoff pictures are starting to take shape, leaving us with a narrowing band of potential paths to the top. Week 10 was another underwhelming week and the biggest injury thus far has been Aaron Jones, though A.J. Dillon is rostered in three-fourths of leagues already. Perhaps you're […]

Surprise Fantasy Football Studs, Duds - Real or Mirage?

The quarterback position was much more predictable in Week 10 than Week 9 as Patrick Mahomes, Dak Prescott and Josh Allen finished as the top-three at the position. Jalen Hurts bounced back after a few poor performances to finish as QB-6 and Mac Jones threw for three touchdowns against the Browns to finish as QB-5. […]

Marquez Callaway (WR, NO)- Fantasy Football Week 11 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 34% of Leagues ANALYSIS: If you know anything about New Orleans, that's 1) that WR Michael Thomas was going to miss a bunch of games and ultimately opted out of the season entirely, and 2) that starting QB and fantasy deity Jameis Winston got more than […]

Tre'Quan Smith (WR, NO)- Fantasy Football Week 11 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 3% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Do we love a New Orleans offense led by Trevor Siemian while Jameis Winston stays on the shelf until next September? No, sir. Do we take advantage of the things that are available to us in the WW as they're thriving of […]
