| 9/12/2025 7:31:00 PM | Greenlaw (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 2 clash against the Colts. |
| Greenlaw will miss a second straight game to begin the campaign as he continues to work his way back from a quad injury. There was a bit of good news on his progression Friday, as Greenlaw logged a limited practice session after missing all three practices last week and the first two this week. Greenlaw's next chance to make his Denver debut will come Sunday, Sept. 21 versus the Chargers. | |
| 9/10/2025 3:03:00 PM | Jaguars coach Liam Coen said Wednesday that Hunter will get more snaps on defense in Sunday's game at Cincinnati, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. |
| In the Jaguars' Week 1 win over Carolina, Hunter played 64 percent of his team's snaps on offense but only nine percent on defense, catching six passes for 33 yards on a team-high eight targets. He ran a route on 77 percent of Trevor Lawrence's dropbacks, flirting with full-time status in his NFL debut. Additional playing time on defense doesn't necessarily mean less on offense, especially when Hunter is starting at such a low point with the former. He should remain a key part of Jacksonville's offense, regardless of what happens on defense in the coming weeks. | |
| 9/9/2025 9:18:00 PM | Greenard registered two tackles and two quarterback hits in Monday's 27-24 victory against the Bears. |
| Greenard wasn't able to notch any sacks in the season-opener, but he did get two hits on Caleb Williams. Greenard posted 24.5 sacks during the regular season over the past two campaigns, so he's likely to be force in that category again this year. | |
| 9/9/2025 9:14:00 PM | Edmunds recorded seven tackles (three solo) and a pass defensed during Monday's 27-24 loss versus the Vikings. |
| Chicago's defense was only on the field for 49 snaps Monday, which makes Edmunds' seven stops look a bit more impressive than they would otherwise. Thanks to his huge snap share in the Bears' front seven, he's solidly on the IDP radar going into a Week 2 matchup at Detroit. | |
| 9/9/2025 8:37:00 PM | Hunter recorded three tackles (one solo) and one fumble recovery in the Texans' 14-9 loss to the Rams on Sunday. |
| Hunter recovered a Colby Parkinson fumble late in the fourth quarter, giving the Texans a chance to go win the game, but Dare Ogunbowale gave the ball back to Los Angeles with a fumble of his own. Hunter is coming off a 2024 in which he recorded 46 tackles (31 solo), including a team-high 12.0 sacks. | |
| 9/9/2025 5:15:00 PM | Reichard made both of his field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point try during the Vikings' 27-24 win over the Bears on Monday. |
| Reichard's 59-yard field goal at the end of the first half matched a Soldier Field record and brought the Vikings' deficit to four points. The 2024 sixth-rounder had a perfect start through Week 8 of his rookie season before suffering a quad injury in Week 9, which impacted his accuracy down the stretch as he went 10-for-14 on field-goal attempts over the final five weeks of the regular season. Reichard's fantasy impact will largely depend on the effectiveness of the Vikings' offense led by J.J. McCarthy. | |
| 9/8/2025 11:56:00 PM | Mason rushed 15 times for 68 yards and brought in his only target for seven yards in the Vikings' 27-24 win over the Bears on Monday night. |
| Mason comfortably led the Vikings in rush attempts and rushing yards, outpacing the only other running back to log a carry, Aaron Jones, by seven carries and 45 yards. The Week 1 usage between the two players is eye-catching to say the least, considering Jones is the established incumbent of the ground attack under a returning coaching staff. Nevertheless, Mason is a proven commodity as an offseason addition, and head coach Kevin O'Connell may be most comfortable affording the latter the bulk of early-down work on most weeks. The next opportunity to see how the pecking order shakes out comes in a Week 2 home matchup against the Falcons on Sunday night. | |
| 9/8/2025 12:55:00 PM | Spillane recorded three total tackles (all solo) in Sunday's 20-13 loss to the Raiders. |
| After coming over from the Raiders to the Patriots in March, Spillane had a relatively underwhelming debut against his former team. The 29-year-old tallied just three total tackles, his fewest in a single game since the 2022 season. Although Spillane struggled in Week 1, he played 100 percent of the Patriots' defensive snaps, so his tackle output figures to go up throughout the season. His next opportunity to make an impact will come in a Week 2 matchup in Miami. | |
| 9/8/2025 11:48:00 AM | Cross had six total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's win over Miami. |
| Cross started at safety opposite Camryn Bynum and played on 38 of the defense's 47 snaps. After recording just one sack in his previous three seasons, Cross' use on a blitz could be a good sign for his fantasy value. He had just six tackles, but the Indy defense was barely on the field in a blowout win. | |
| 9/7/2025 10:50:00 PM | Pearsall brought in four of seven targets for 108 yards in Sunday's 17-13 win over Seattle. |
| Pearsall took on an expanded role after George Kittle (hamstring) and Jauan Jennings (shoulder) did not return from their respective injuries suffered in Sunday's victory. The 24-year-old Pearsall was up to the task, ripping off multiple big-chunk plays en route to his first 100-yard game of 2025. The University of Florida product was already expected to have a breakout season entering his second year, but he could be asked to do even more if either Kittle or Jennings is forced to miss time. Pearsall will attempt to build off of this promising start when the 49ers take on the Saints next Sunday. | |
| 9/7/2025 10:01:00 PM | Stafford (back) completed 21 of 29 pass attempts for 245 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 14-9 victory over the Texans. |
| Stafford missed the entire preseason dealing with a minor back injury, getting cleared just in time to start the regular-season opener. The veteran signal-caller showed no ill effects under center, producing a 109.1 passer rating with no turnovers in a tight victory. With Davante Adams (4-51-0) replacing Cooper Kupp across from star wideout Puka Nacua (10-130-0) this season, Stafford has one of the best WR duos at his disposal heading into next Sunday's road game against the Titans. | |
| 9/7/2025 9:45:00 PM | Sampson rushed the ball 12 times for 29 yards in Sunday's 17-16 loss to the Bengals. He added eight receptions on eight targets for 64 yards. |
| Sampson was expected to serve as the change-of-pace back in Cleveland, but he took the first carry for the Browns and out-touched Jerome Ford 20-7. Sampson wasn't particularly impressive on the ground, but he was still more efficient than Ford. He ultimately made his mark as a pass catcher, however, as he led the Browns in receptions (eight) and was second in yards (64). While it was an encouraging debut for Sampson, the backfield is likely to grow more crowded with the addition of Quinshon Judkins in Week 2 against Baltimore. | |
| 9/7/2025 8:47:00 PM | Skattebo rushed twice for minus-3 yards and caught both of his targets for 12 yards in Sunday's 21-6 loss to the Commanders. |
| The rookie fourth-round pick struggled in his NFL debut, but there are a couple silver linings to be found in this forgettable performance. Skattebo got a chance by the goal line with a carry from the 1-yard line in the second quarter, though he lost a yard on the play, and lead back Tyrone Tracy didn't exactly separate from the pack with just 24 yards on 10 carries. The 219-pound Skattebo could eventually emerge as the short-yardage back over the 210-pound Tracy, and Skattebo showed promise as a pass catcher in training camp, but his short-term role could be limited in a Giants backfield that also includes Tracy and Devin Singletary. Up next for Big Blue is a Week 2 road game in Dallas. | |
| 9/7/2025 8:28:00 PM | Fairbairn went 3-for-3 on field-goal attempts during the Texans' 14-9 loss to the Rams on Sunday. |
| The Texans' offense couldn't punch the ball into the end zone and finished with 265 total yards, but Fairbairn's boot kept Houston in the game. He opened things up with a 51-yard field goal in the first quarter for the game's first score, and after making a 45-yard try in the second quarter, he put the Texans up by two points with a 53-yard make as time expired in the first half. Fairbairn made a career-high 13 field goals from 50-plus yards in 2024, and that length will help the Texans stay competitive when the offense stalls outside the red zone. | |
| 9/7/2025 8:06:00 PM | St. Brown recorded four catches on six targets for 45 yards in Sunday's 27-13 loss to the Packers. |
| The Lions' offense struggled to get going for most of the game, with both St. Brown and Jameson Williams putting up muted stats as a result. St. Brown managed only one catch that went for more than nine yards, though he still finished second on the team in receiving yards. Detroit will return home for a Week 2 matchup against the Bears, and the offense should be in line for better results. | |
| 9/7/2025 7:46:00 PM | Gibbs rushed the ball nine times for 19 yards in Sunday's 27-13 loss to the Packers. He added 10 receptions (on 10 targets) for 31 yards. |
| There was plenty of offseason speculation that Gibbs would take over the backfield from David Montgomery, though Montgomery had 11 carries to Gibbs' nine. Gibbs still managed to salvage his day with a team-leading 10 catches, but he also found running room hard to come by in that context. Week 1 was a disastrous game for the Detroit offense overall, so a Week 2 matchup with the Bears should allow Gibbs to bounce back while also potentially clarifying his role in a more typical game script. | |
| 9/7/2025 7:40:00 PM | McMillan caught five of nine targets for 68 yards in Sunday's 26-10 loss to the Jaguars. |
| The eighth overall pick in the 2025 Draft was the unquestioned top wideout for the Panthers right out of the gate, as he led the team in targets, catches and receiving yards in a mostly disappointing day for Bryce Young and the passing game. McMillan will need better performances from his quarterback to turn that kind of volume into consistent production, but it was still an encouraging start to his pro career. He'll look to make a bigger impact on the road Week 2 against the Cardinals. | |
| 9/7/2025 6:11:00 PM | Egbuka brought in four of six targets for 67 yards and two touchdowns in the Buccaneers' 23-20 win over the Falcons on Sunday. He also rushed once for nine yards. |
| The rookie first-round pick had been ascendant since he first stepped on a Buccaneers practice field this offseason, and Egbuka delivered handsomely in his first career regular-season contest. The Ohio State product first struck from 30-yards out just past the midway point of the second quarter, and he subsequently added what would turn out to be a game-winning 25-yard scoring grab with just under a minute remaining. The poise and polish that Egbuka has repeatedly been commended for was on display on his way to a team-leading yardage total, and he'll be in line to play another significant role during a Week 2 marquee interconference road matchup against the Texans on Monday night, Sept. 15. | |
| 9/7/2025 5:55:00 PM | Higgins recorded three receptions on four targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 17-16 win over the Browns. |
| The Cincinnati offense had a surprisingly poor opening performance against the Browns, leading to limited production for all of its skill-position players. Higgins led the team in receiving yards thanks to a 13-yard catch as well as a pair of 10-yard gains, but it was still a disappointing showing. He should remain a key part of Cincinnati's offense and will have a chance to bounce back in Week 2 against the Jaguars. | |
| 9/7/2025 5:35:00 PM | Burrow completed 14 of 23 passes for 113 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions and rushed twice for three yards in Sunday's 17-16 win over the Browns. |
| Burrow and the Bengals had the ball for only 24:11 and ran just 49 offensive plays. On top of the limited volume, Burrow managed only 5.0 yards per attempt, with his longest completion going for just 20 yards. He did manage to throw a one-yard touchdown to Noah Fant in an otherwise disappointing performance. Burrow should be in for a resurgent showing in Week 2 against Jacksonville. | |
| 9/5/2025 11:56:00 PM | Henley logged eight tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks, during Friday's 27-21 win over the Chiefs. |
| Henley accrued five takedowns during the Chiefs' penultimate drive of the first half, which was capped off by an eight-yard sack on Patrick Mahomes to force the Chiefs to settle for three points on a Harrison Butker 35-yard field goal. Henley isn't known for his pass-rushing ability, but it took just one game to match his sack total from 2024. The 2023 third-rounder led the Chargers last season with 147 tackles across 17 regular-season games, which was eighth most in the NFL and seventh most among linebackers. | |
| 8/14/2025 12:10:00 PM | Garoppolo is not in line to play in Saturday's preseason game against the Chargers, Eric Edholm of NFL.com reports. |
| Given that top QB Matthew Stafford is still hampered by a back issue, it's no surprise that the Rams are playing it safe with their veteran backup, with Stu Jackson of the team's official site having previously relayed via coach Sean McVay that Garoppolo won't play in any preseason games. In that context, Stetson Bennett and Dresser Winn are available to handle signal-caller reps this weekend. | |
| 2/15/2025 12:08:00 AM | Browning didn't throw a pass over three regular-season games in 2024. He rushed twice for minus-2 yards. |
| A season-ending injury to Joe Burrow in Week 11 of 2023 gave Browning an opportunity for substantial playing time, but Burrow remained healthy throughout 2024, and Browning consequently spent almost the entire campaign on the bench. Browning signed a two-year contract with Cincinnati last April, so he's slated to work as Burrow's backup again next season. | |
