Jefferson off COVID list August 4, 2020
Vikings WR Justin Jefferson has been removed from the COVID list. The rookie remains the favorite to win the #2 WR job in Minnesota. We'll keep an eye on his development over the next month.
Stafford off COVID list August 4, 2020
Lions QB Matt Stafford has been removed from the COVID list. The team said in a statement that Stafford received a false-positive test and did not have the virus. Consider this is a non-issue for now.
Hurns opts out August 4, 2020
Dolphins WR Allen Hurns has opted out of the 2020 season. He was set to play a depth role for the Fins. Miami is now down to Albert Wilson, Jakeem Grant, Isaiah Ford and Mack Hollins behind DeVante Parker and Preston Williams on the depth chart. Those names are worth remembering in OC Chan Gailey's […]
Rivera happy with Haskins August 4, 2020
Redskins HC Ron Rivera likes what he's seen from QB Dwayne Haskins early in training camp. “He’s done the extra stuff that he and I talked about in the offseason,” Rivera said. “He’s done the things that I think puts him right there where he needs to be at this junction of where we are […]
Roethlisberger says arm feels "really good" August 4, 2020
Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger told reporters on Tuesday that his arm feels "really good." He added that he'll be on a "pitch count" in training camp. Big Ben's return from last September's surgery on his throwing elbow is 1 of the bigger fantasy storylines of the summer. Unfortunately, we won't get to see him in […]
Inman signs with Washington August 4, 2020
Washington has signed WR Dontrelle Inman. The 31-year-old has spent time with the Chargers, Bears and Colts over 6 NFL seasons. He had a 58-catch campaign back in 2016 but has totaled just 65 grabs in the 3 seasons since. Inman is basically a replacement-level player -- but there's opportunity in Washington with WR Kelvin […]
Penny to PUP list August 4, 2020
The Seahawks placed RB Rashaad Penny (knee) on the active/PUP list. No surprise here. Penny is still rehabbing from last December's torn ACL and is a candidate for the reserve/PUP list, which would cost him the first 6 games of the season. He's only worth considering in fantasy drafts over 20 rounds. Chris Carson and […]
Minshew off COVID list August 4, 2020
Jaguars QB Gardner Minshew has been removed from the COVID list. We still don't know whether or not he had the virus -- but it's a non-issue for now. Minshew is locked in as Jacksonville's starter and is an intriguing late-round QB2 selection in fantasy drafts.
49ers sign Reed August 3, 2020
The 49ers have signed TE Jordan Reed. The 30-year-old missed the entire 2019 campaign after sustaining his 7th documented concussion. When we last saw him in 2018, Reed racked up 45 catches for 499 yards and 3 TDs in 9 games. There should still be gas left in his tank for as long as he […]
Packers "counting on" Sternberger August 3, 2020
Packers GM Brian Gutekunst said his team is "counting on" TE Jace Sternberger this season. His rookie year was basically wiped out by injury, but Jimmy Graham's departure paves the way for Sternberger to take over as Green Bay's lead TE in 2020. “From the time we drafted him, we looked at Jace as a […]
