| 2/5/2026 9:43:00 PM | McCaffrey was named the 2025 Comeback Player of the Year on Thursday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports. |
| McCaffrey was limited to only four games in 2024 due to Achilles and knee injuries, but he managed to suit up for all 17 regular-season contests in 2025. He also handled an impressive 413 total touches while racking up 2,126 yards from scrimmage. McCaffrey's rushing efficiency took a concerning dip, but his involvement as a pass catcher should help him retain elite fantasy value in 2026. | |
| 2/4/2026 8:19:00 PM | Maye (right shoulder) practiced fully Wednesday. |
| Maye tended to a right shoulder injury after the Patriots' win in the AFC Championship Game at Denver that left him listed as limited last Wednesday and Thursday. He then missed Friday's practice due to an illness and emerged from the first week of Super Bowl LX prep with a questionable designation. After throwing "a good bit" Monday, Maye told Zack Cox of the Boston Herald, "I feel good. I'll be just fine." With an uncapped session to begin this week, Maye has backed up his statement and thus is set to lead the Patriots offense Sunday versus the Seahawks. | |
| 1/29/2026 2:06:00 PM | Penix (knee) said Wednesday he "look[s] forward to being back Week 1," but he added "we'll see" and noted that Atlanta's medical staff will have "the last word" on his recovery timetable, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports. |
| Penix mentioned his familiarity with the process of rehabbing from ACL tears, as he suffered similar injuries twice during his collegiate career, both to his right knee. Currently, Penix is rehabbing from a torn left ACL for which he underwent surgery Nov. 25, roughly 9.5 months prior to Week 1 of the 2026 campaign. That places Week 1 squarely within the typical 9-to-12-month recovery timetable for ACL tears, albeit on the earlier end of the scale. Per Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site, new head coach Kevin Stefanski confirmed Tuesday that Penix already has resumed "attacking his rehab" at the team's training facility. Stefanski expressed excitement about Penix as "a young player who will continue to develop and continue to get better." Meanwhile, veteran Kirk Cousins is the only other quarterback under contract with Atlanta for 2026, though he reworked his deal with the team in early January in a maneuver that likely will result in either another restructure or his release prior to March 13, per Field Yates of ESPN. | |
| 1/25/2026 11:13:00 PM | Nacua corralled nine of 14 targets for 165 yards and a touchdown while gaining four yards on his only carry in Sunday's 31-27 loss to the Seahawks in the NFC Championship Game. |
| Nacua paced the Rams in targets, receptions and yards from scrimmage in an impressive individual effort that wasn't enough to lift his club past the NFC Championship Game in 2025. The fantasy stud overcame the complexity of incorporating another superstar wideout into the mix when Davante Adams signed with Los Angeles this past offseason. Nacua maintained his elite status while posting career bests in catches (129), touchdowns (11) and total yardage (1,820) across 16 regular-season appearances. The 2023 fifth-round pick has already surpassed all expectations through three seasons in the pros, and there is little reason to believe that Nacua can't continue to deliver both on the field and for fantasy managers in 2026. | |
| 1/25/2026 6:31:00 PM | Harvey rushed 13 times for 37 yards and brought in four of six targets for 22 yards in the Broncos' 10-7 loss to the Patriots in Sunday's AFC Championship Game. |
| Harvey unsurprisingly found running room at a premium against a tough Patriots defense and weather conditions that deteriorated as the game went on. However, the rookie put together a couple of productive runs and also made significant contributions as a receiver, finishing tied with Marvin Mims for the team lead in receptions and targets. Harvey put together an encouraging rookie season that saw him handle the lead-back role down the stretch in the absence of J.K. Dobbins (IR, foot), and he lines up to continue helming the Broncos backfield in 2026. | |
| 1/23/2026 5:58:00 PM | Elliss (hip) doesn't have an injury designation ahead of Sunday's AFC Championship Game against the Broncos. |
| Elliss managed to upgrade to a full participant in Friday's practice after being limited for consecutive sessions to start the week. The inside linebacker logged 40 defensive snaps in last Sunday's playoff win over the Texans and is all set to reprise his role in New England's defense for this weekend's elimination game. | |
| 1/20/2026 12:48:00 PM | Addison is no longer facing a misdemeanor trespassing charge stemming from his Jan. 12 arrest in Tampa after a Florida state attorney filed a termination of prosecution Tuesday, Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com reports. |
| With the charge being dropped, Addison is unlikely to face any discipline from the NFL. Addison has now had three brushes with the law since entering the league as a first-round pick in 2023, as he previously plead guilty to a misdemeanor speeding charge related to a July 2023 incident and was also arrested on a DUI charge in 2024. When available, the 23-year-old wideout has performed well in a complementary role behind No. 1 receiver Justin Jefferson, but Addison's off-field issues could play a part in whether Minnesota decides to exercise the fifth-year option on his rookie contract this spring. If exercised, the team option is expected to fully guarantee Addison around $17.5 million for the 2027 season, per OverTheCap.com. | |
| 1/18/2026 1:06:00 AM | Jennings recorded two receptions on five targets for 39 yards in Saturday's divisional-round loss to the Seahawks. |
| Jennings was predictably one of Brock Purdy's favorite targets, though his stat line reflects San Francisco's inability to move the ball effectively in the loss. He did account for the team's longest play from scrimmage on a 19-yard catch and run to begin the second half, but he also had a key drop late in the third quarter on third down. While Jennings' season didn't end positively, he tallied a career-high nine touchdowns across 15 regular-season games. | |
| 1/15/2026 8:28:00 PM | Knight (shoulder) does not carry an injury designation into Saturday's NFC divisional-round tilt against the 49ers, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports. |
| Knight was unable to practice Tuesday due to a shoulder issue, but he was able to increase his practice participation over the next two days, culminating in a full session Thursday to avoid an injury tag for the divisional round. The second-year pro played mostly on special teams toward the tail end of the regular season and finished with 57 tackles (37 solo), including 2.0 sacks, and two forced fumbles across 16 games. | |
| 1/15/2026 7:45:00 PM | Greenlaw (hamstring) does not carry an injury designation for Saturday's AFC divisional-round game against the Bills, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports. |
| Greenlaw ended the week with a full practice Thursday, which was enough for him to avoid an injury designation for Saturday's contest. The veteran linebacker missed the Broncos' final two games of the regular season while nursing a hamstring injury and enjoyed additional rest thanks to the Broncos' wild-card round bye as the top seed in the AFC. With Greenlaw starting alongside Alex Singleton at inside linebacker, Justin Strnad and Karene Reid will provide depth at the position. | |
| 1/11/2026 8:30:00 PM | Smith caught eight of 11 targets for 70 yards in Sunday's 23-19 wild-card game loss to the 49ers. |
| Smith accounted for 70 of Jalen Hurts' 168 passing yards while no teammate had more than 33 receiving yards. Sunday's playoff disappointment comes on the heels of Smith's third 1,000-yard regular season in five NFL campaigns, as he caught 77 of 113 targets for 1,008 yards and a career-low four touchdowns while dressing for all 17 regular-season games. Smith is tied to the Eagles through the 2028 season on a three-year, $75 million extension signed in April of 2024. | |
| 1/10/2026 10:13:00 AM | Anderson registered 54 tackles, 12.0 sacks, and a touchdown over 17 regular-season games in 2025. He added three forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries. |
| Anderson established a new career high in sacks and recorded a second consecutive season with double-digit sacks. He and Danielle Hunter (15.0 sacks) at the opposite end of the defensive line were a lot for offensive lines and a big part of the Texans' top-ranked defense. Anderson's touchdown, his first in the NFL, came when he strip-sacked Seattle's Sam Darnold in the end zone and pounced on the ball during a Week 7 loss to the Seahawks. The edge rusher is entering the final year of his rookie contract in 2026. | |
| 1/8/2026 9:30:00 PM | Granderson accumulated 57 tackles (22 solo), including six sacks, and four passes defended across 17 regular-season games in 2025. |
| Granderson continued his consistent production this season, but his tackle number took a hit as he played slightly fewer snaps than he did over the previous two seasons. In 51 games over the last three regular seasons, the 29-year-old has tallied 20 sacks, and he's averaged 65.3 tackles per year. Granderson has two seasons remaining on his four-year, $52 million contract with the Saints. | |
| 1/6/2026 8:18:00 PM | Aubrey made 36 of his 42 field-goal tries and converted 47 of his 48 extra-point attempts in 17 games with Dallas in 2025. |
| After finishing first in fantasy points among NFL kickers in 2023 and second in 2024, Aubrey finished third in 2025 behind only Jason Myers and Ka'imi Fairbairn. He remained all but automatic for the purposes of PATs, but he was a bit less accurate from distance compared to his 2022 and 2023 numbers, especially down the stretch, when he hit just two of his six attempts of 50-plus yards during the final four games of the season. Fantasy investors will be watching closely to see if the Cowboys extend their contract with Aubrey for 2026 and possibly beyond this offseason, as he has been helped along by strong offenses and by getting to play half of his games within the friendly confines of AT&T Stadium. | |
| 1/6/2026 12:38:00 PM | Cousins agreed Tuesday to restructure the final two seasons of his four-year, $180 million contract, Field Yates of ESPN.com reports. |
| As part of the restructure, Cousins agreed to reduce his base salary for the 2026 season from a non-guaranteed $35 million to $2.1 million, but the amended deal doesn't necessarily mean that the veteran quarterback will stick around with Atlanta through the upcoming season. Cousins is still guaranteed $67.9 million for the 2027 season, with that money scheduled to vest March 13, the third day of the new league year. Given that Atlanta would have no interest in being tied to Cousins at that amount of money in 2027, the 37-year-old signal-caller may have to agree to another restructure in order to avoid being designated for a post-June 1 release. After opening the 2025 season in a backup role, Cousins reclaimed the starting job for the Falcons' final seven games after Michael Penix (knee) tore his ACL in Week 11. In his 10 total appearances, Cousins completed 166 of 269 pass attempts (61.7 percent) for 1,721 yards, 10 touchdowns and five interceptions while tacking on a rushing touchdown. | |
| 1/6/2026 12:24:00 PM | Rozeboom tallied 122 total tackles (59 solo), including 2.0 sacks, three passes defensed, including one interception, and one forced fumble across 15 regular-season in 2025. |
| The South Dakota State product recorded triple-digit stops for the second consecutive season while leading Carolina in total tackles. Rozeboom also set new career highs in sacks (2.0) and forced fumbles (one), starting all 15 regular-season games he appeared in for the Panthers. The 28-year-old signed a one-year, $2.5 million contract with Carolina last offseason and is slated to become an unrestricted free agent following the team's playoff campaign. Given his production, Rozeboom should draw interest from teams in need of inside linebacker help this offseason. | |
| 1/6/2026 11:44:00 AM | Cross made six tackles (three solo) during Sunday's 38-30 season-finale loss to the Texans. |
| Cross suited up for all 17 regular-season games for a third consecutive year, recording 120 tackles (72 solo), including a career-high 2.5 sacks. He also had five passes defensed, including one interception, and one forced fumble. The 2022 third-round pick is slated to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason. | |
| 1/5/2026 11:48:00 PM | Godwin secured his only target for eight yards in the Buccaneers' 16-14 win over the Panthers on Saturday. He finished the 2025 regular season with 33 receptions for 360 yards and two touchdowns on 51 targets across nine games. |
| Godwin's uninspiring finish was a somewhat fitting end to a career-worst season for the accomplished veteran, who failed to hit the 50-catch mark for the first time since his rookie 2017 campaign. He didn't make his season debut until Week 4 while completing his recovery from a 2024 ankle injury, and after posting matching three-catch, 26-yard efforts in his first two games, the Penn State product went on to log five consecutive absences due to a fibula injury. Godwin ultimately managed just one 100-yard performance and finished with a career-low 7.1 yards per target, making it close to a throwaway campaign from a fantasy perspective. He's under contract for the 2026 season at a significant cap hit of $33.7 million thanks in large part to a $22 million base salary, so a restructuring or potential parting of the ways appears to be in the cards this offseason. | |
| 1/4/2026 11:47:00 PM | Perine rushed eight times for 42 yards and caught three of four targets for 10 yards in Cincinnati's 20-18 loss to the Browns on Sunday. |
| Perine's eight carries were his fourth-most in a game this season, and the veteran running back wraps up the 2025 campaign with 382 yards and three touchdowns on 84 carries. He added 17 catches for 87 scoreless yards. Perine is under contract through 2026 on a $1.4 million salary. He'll turn 31 years old in September and likely isn't guaranteed to make the 53-man roster out of training camp next summer. | |
| 1/4/2026 9:01:00 PM | Tuten rushed five times for 23 yards and one touchdown in the Jaguars' 41-7 win over the Titans on Sunday. |
| Tuten carried the ball five times behind Travis Etienne's 14, but it was Tuten who scored a touchdown in this one, as he punched in a five-yard score in the fourth quarter of the blowout win. Tuten will handle RB2 duties behind Etienne for next weekend's wild-card matchup with the Bills. | |
| 1/4/2026 8:14:00 PM | St. Brown secured 11 of 15 targets for 139 yards in the Lions' 19-16 win over the Bears on Sunday. |
| St. Brown shook off a questionable designation due to a knee injury and put together one of his best performances of the season, as he was targeted early and often by Jared Goff. The star receiver comfortably paced the Lions in receptions, receiving yards and targets, recording his second-highest tallies of the season in the first and third categories in the process. St. Brown is essentially blameless in Detroit's surprising failure to reach the postseason, as the 2021 fourth-round pick recorded 117 receptions for 1,401 yards and 11 touchdowns and added three carries for nine yards across 17 games. St. Brown will naturally serve as a centerpiece of the Lions' air attack again in 2026. | |
| 1/4/2026 5:16:00 PM | Blue rushed 16 times for 64 yards and a touchdown but wasn't targeted in the passing game during Sunday's 34-17 loss to the Giants. |
| Blue spent most of his rookie season as a healthy inactive, but he took on the lead-back role in the regular-season finale as the Cowboys played without Javonte Williams (shoulder) and Malik Davis (eye/calf). Blue made the most of his opportunity, scoring his first NFL touchdown on a 14-yard run in the first quarter. The 2025 fifth-round pick will try to carve out a larger role in his second NFL campaign after dressing for only five games as a rookie. Blue had 38 carries for 129 yards and one touchdown while catching his only target for five yards across those five appearances. | |
| 1/4/2026 12:15:00 PM | Fitzgerald missed his only field-goal try but converted on both point-after attempts during Saturday's 16-14 loss to the Buccaneers. |
| Fitzgerald came up short on a 54-yard field-goal try in the third quarter of Saturday's loss. It was a miss that proved costly, as the Panthers lost by just two points. The rookie kicker from Florida State appeared in all 17 of Carolina's regular-season games in 2025, making 24 of 29 field-goal attempts and 27 of 30 point-after tries. However, he struggled from long range, converting on just two of five field-goal attempts from 50-plus yards. Under contract through the 2027 season, Fitzgerald is expected to at least compete for Carolina's top placekicker role heading into the 2026 season. | |
| 12/22/2025 7:55:00 PM | Strnad (foot) was a full participant in Monday's walkthrough practice, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports. |
| Strnad was unable to play in Sunday's loss to the Jaguars due to a foot injury. However, his full participation in Monday's session indicates that he's past the injury and on track to play Thursday against the Chiefs. Strnad could be deployed in a starting role at inside linebacker if Dre Greenlaw (hamstring) is unable to play. | |
| 11/19/2025 12:47:00 PM | Atlanta signed Stick off its practice squad Wednesday, Terrin Waack of the Falcons' official site reports. |
| Head coach Raheem Morris confirmed Wednesday that Stick will step in as Atlanta's new No. 2 quarterback, with Kirk Cousins elevating into the starting role after Michael Penix (knee) was officially placed on injured reserve after sustaining a season-ending partial tear of his ACL in this past Sunday's 30-27 overtime loss to Carolina. Stick's last NFL action came with the Chargers in 2023, when he appeared in five games and threw for 1,129 yards, three touchdowns and one interception while adding 144 rushing yards and a touchdown on the ground. | |
| 3/10/2025 5:47:00 PM | Dobbs agreed to a two-year contract with the Patriots on Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. |
| Dobbs served as a reserve quarterback for the 49ers in 2024 but got the Week 18 start with Brock Purdy (elbow) sidelined and Brandon Allen already earning a start himself Week 12. Between a pair of appearances, Dobbs completed 32 of 47 passes for 361 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions, rushed nine times for 24 yards and two TDs and fumbled twice (one lost). In stints with five different teams, he's made 15 starts with a 3-12 record, so he brings an experienced hand behind rising second-year QB Drake Maye in New England. | |
