Titans Put Corey Davis On COVID-19 List
The Tennessee Titans placed wide receiver Corey Davis on the COVID-19 reserve list on Wednesday. It looks as though Davis was one of two more Titans players to test positive for COVID-19 on Wednesday, which makes it highly unlikely that he'll be available in Week 5 against the Bills. The outbreak continues for Tennessee, and […]

Now Is the Time to Sell High on Dak Prescott
Dak Prescott came into the season as a consensus top-five quarterback in fantasy football. Through four games, the Dallas Cowboys QB has soared past those expectations, completing 68% percent of his passes for 1,690 yards, nine touchdowns, and three interceptions. Currently ranked as QB1, Dak is on an absurd pace of 6,000+ passing yards on […]
Disaster Recovery - Week 4's Studs Turned Duds
In Week 4 of the NFL season, the action on the field took a backseat to the questions and caution off it.

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill will have considerable DFS appeal should Sunday’s contest versus Buffalo go off without a hitch in the wake of the Titans’ COVID-19 outbreak.
