| 1/9/2026 4:33:00 PM | Warren (illness) practiced without limitations Friday, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports. |
| Warren missed Thursday's practice due to an illness, but his return to full participation Friday assuages any concerns about his availability for Monday's wild-card home game against the Texans. He's set to split backfield duties with Kenneth Gainwell against the stout Houston defense, which allowed the fourth-fewest rushing yards to running backs in the regular season. | |
| 1/9/2026 1:42:00 PM | Bonitto recorded 46 tackles (31 solo), including 14.0 sacks, one pass defensed and two forced fumbles across 17 games in 2025 with the Broncos. |
| Bonitto continued to dominate as a pass rusher while recording a career-high 14.0 sacks, which was fifth-most in the NFL this season. The 26-year-old linebacker led all Broncos defenders in sacks, as he and fellow edge rusher Jonathon Cooper continued to work together as one of the best edge-rush duos in the league. Bonitto signed a four-year extension in September, so he'll continue to be a centerpiece of the Broncos' formidable defensive unit in 2026 and beyond. The Oklahoma product should remain a solid IDP option for fantasy purposes next season. | |
| 1/9/2026 1:26:00 PM | Boutte (hamstring) will be listed as questionable for Sunday night's playoff opener against the Chargers, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports. |
| Boutte was added to the Patriots' wild-card-round injury report Thursday after being limited in practice by a hamstring injury. With the wideout now being deemed questionable as the weekend approaches, His status for Sunday's contest could turn into a game-day call ahead of an 8:00 p.m. ET kickoff. If Boutte ends up limited or out versus Los Angeles, Kyle Williams would be a candidate to see added opportunities in a wide receiver corps that also includes Stefon Diggs, DeMario Douglas and Efton Chism. Meanwhile, WRs John Jiles, Brandon Smith and Jeremiah Webb are members of New England's practice squad. | |
| 1/8/2026 1:00:00 PM | Elliss recorded 107 total tackles (59 solo), including 3.5 sacks, six passes defensed, including one interception, and one forced fumble over 17 regular-season games in 2025. |
| The veteran linebacker from Idaho remained one of the Falcons' top defensive playmakers in 2025, leading the team in total tackles and setting a new career high in passes defensed. However, Elliss saw declines in both total tackles (151 to 107) and sacks (6.0 to 3.5) compared to his 2024 campaign, despite logging 48 more defensive snaps this season. The 30-year-old is set to hit unrestricted free agency this offseason and could still command a solid contract following his third consecutive season with triple-digit stops. | |
| 1/7/2026 2:31:00 PM | The 49ers moved Bethune (groin) to injured reserve Wednesday. |
| Bethune suffered a groin injury late into the 49ers' Week 18 loss to the Seahawks. The injury has proven to be season-ending, and the team will now grow even thinner at linebacker as they enter the playoffs. The recent signing of Eric Kendricks to the active roster will hopefully be enough to sustain the team until it can potentially regain the help of All-Pro linebacker Fred Warner (ankle). | |
| 1/7/2026 12:33:00 AM | Johnson brought in his only target for 17 yards and rushed once for five yards in the Buccaneers' 16-14 win over the Panthers on Saturday. He finished his 2025 rookie campaign with 28 receptions for 322 yards and five touchdowns on 44 targets while adding seven rushes for 22 yards across 16 games. |
| The 2025 seventh-round pick saw more work than expected as Mike Evans, Chris Godwin and Jalen McMillan all dealt with injuries, helping Johnson to gain some value reps early in his NFL career. He logged snap rates of between 57 percent to 73 percent in seven straight games from Week 6 to Week 13. Johnson's workload faded down the stretch as the receiving corps got healthy, but he made a solid first impression and should compete for reserve snaps in 2026. | |
| 1/6/2026 9:24:00 PM | McPherson made 25 of his 28 field-goal tries and converted 41 of his 44 extra-point attempts in 17 games with Cincinnati in 2025. |
| After converting on a career-low 72.7 percent of his field-goal attempts in 2024, McPherson recorded a career high 89.3 percent in that category in 2025. He also showed improvement from distance compared to last season, making 15 of his 18 tries from 40-plus yards out compared to six of 12 in 2024. He still probably hasn't justified the three-year, $14 million contract the Bengals gave him in August of 2024, but he would project as an above-average fantasy option at kicker in 2026 if starting quarterback Joe Burrow can stay healthy and lead a more potent offense than the one Cincinnati had for much of this year. | |
| 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. | |
| 1/5/2026 10:54:00 PM | Campbell recorded 176 total tackles (89 solo), including 5.0 sacks, while also adding four passes defensed, three forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries over 17 contests during the 2025 regular season. |
| Campbell found a way to take another step up in his third campaign in Detroit, setting new career high totals in tackles, sacks, forced fumbles and fumble recoveries. The linebacker finished second in the NFL in total tackles only behind Dolphins linebacker Jordyn Brooks (183). Campbell will be entering the final season of his rookie contract in 2026. | |
| 1/5/2026 4:02:00 PM | Bates went 27-for-34 on field-goal attempts and made 54 of 56 PATs over 17 games during the 2025 regular season. |
| Bates took step back in his second season in Detroit from a field-goal percentage standpoint, converting 79 percent of his tries after making 90 percent in his rookie campaign. Most notably, the kicker struggled from 50-plus yards, going 4-for-9 on attempts from that range. Bates will enter the offseason as a free agent, but it'd be a surprise if the Lions weren't interested in re-signing him. | |
| 1/5/2026 12:32:00 PM | Byard recorded eight tackles (two solo) and an interception in the Bears' 19-16 loss to the Lions on Sunday. |
| Byard finished with 93 tackles and eight passes defended, including seven interceptions, marking his sixth season with at least four interceptions. He consistently posted between five and seven tackles across most outings, maintaining steady weekly value. He is set to hit free agency but remains an excellent IDP option heading into his age-32 season. | |

| 1/5/2026 12:24:00 AM | Jackson (back) completed 11 of 18 pass attempts for 238 yards, three touchdowns and one interception while taking four carries for nine yards in Sunday's 26-24 loss to the Steelers. |
| Jackson performed valiantly after returning from a one-game absence due to injury, throwing three touchdown passes to give his team a shot at victory and the AFC North title on Sunday Night Football. Unfortunately for Jackson and the Ravens, his effort fell in vain after Tyler Loop shanked the potential game-winning field goal as time expired in regulation. Injuries plagued the dual-threat superstar's 2025 season, and he produced pedestrian passing totals (2,549 yards, 21 TDs and seven INTs) across 13 starts. The biggest drop in production came in the rushing department, as Jackson finished the campaign with a career-worst 67-349-2 rushing line. The 28-year-old remains under contract with Baltimore in 2026 and will look to return to his MVP form following an offseason of rest and recuperation. | |
| 1/4/2026 8:59:00 PM | Meyers caught five of six targets for 44 yards in the Jaguars' 41-7 win over the Titans on Sunday. |
| It was again Parker Washington doing most of the damage in the Jaguars' wide receiver corps, posting a 5-87-1 receiving line on a team-high nine targets against Tennessee. In nine games with Jacksonville following his trade from Las Vegas, Meyers has caught 42 passes for 483 yards and three touchdowns on 61 targets. The Jaguars will host the Bills in the wild-card round next weekend. | |
| 1/4/2026 8:10:00 PM | Cook rushed twice for 15 yards and wasn't targeted in Sunday's 35-8 win over the Jets. He finished the regular season with 309 carries for 1,621 yards and 12 touchdowns while adding 33 catches for 291 yards and two touchdowns on 40 targets. |
| Cook notched carries of 10 yards and five yards on the game's first two plays before letting Ray Davis and Ty Johnson split Buffalo's backfield workload the rest of the way. Despite Cook's limited workload in the regular-season finale, he'll finish as the league leader in rushing yards unless Derrick Henry gains at least 153 rushing yards in Sunday's game against the Steelers. The Bills earned the No. 6 seed in the AFC playoffs and will go on the road against the Jaguars in the wild-card round. | |
| 1/4/2026 6:57:00 PM | Rush (coach's decision) is inactive but will serve as the Ravens' emergency quarterback for Sunday night's game against the Steelers. |
| Rush served as the backup to Tyler Huntley in Week 17 against the Packers, but the former will revert to his emergency role after Lamar Jackson was cleared to play Week 18. As such, Rush will not be allowed to play Sunday unless both Jackson and Huntley leave the game due to injury, illness or ejection. | |
| 1/4/2026 6:57:00 PM | Warren caught five of eight targets for 26 yards in Sunday's 38-30 loss to the Texans. |
| With Riley Leonard getting his first career start at quarterback, Warren wound up being nothing more than a security blanket and check-down option for his fellow rookie, with his longest gain going for just nine yards. The five receptions still led the Colts, however. Warren puts his first NFL season in the books with a 76-817-4 line on 112 targets, and depending on how the team solves its QB dilemma this offseason, the tight end could be poised for a Year 2 breakout. | |
| 1/4/2026 6:38:00 PM | Taylor carried the ball 14 times for 26 yards and caught both his targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 38-30 loss to the Texans. |
| It was the least productive game of the season for Taylor, as his longest run went for only eight yards and rookie DJ Giddens wound up leading the Colts with 30 rushing yards. Taylor missed his chance to catch James Cook for the NFL rushing crown, but he still wraps up an impressive campaign with 1,585 rushing yards and a career-high 18 TDs on the ground, along with a 46-378-2 line on 55 targets through the air. The 26-year-old RB will head into 2026 as the centerpiece of the Indianapolis offense. | |
| 1/4/2026 4:52:00 PM | Estime rushed 21 times for 63 yards and brought in all five targets for 43 yards in the Saints' 19-17 loss to the Falcons on Sunday. |
| With Alvin Kamara (knee) sidelined once again to close out the season, Estime easily paced the Saints' ground attack in carries and rushing yards for a second straight week. The second-year pro was much less efficient than during his 14-carry, 94-yard performance against the Titans in Week 17, but Estime helped make up for it with an impressive day as a pass catcher. Estime put some good play on tape over the last two games, and with Kamara's future uncertain, it's possible Estime enters the final year of his deal with New Orleans in position to compete for significant playing time in 2026. | |
| 1/4/2026 2:16:00 PM | After being evaluated for a potential concussion, Thomas was cleared to return to Sunday's game against the Titans. |
| Good news for the Jaguars in Week 18, with the team headed to the postseason. Prior to leaving the contest, the wideout had caught one of his two targets for 22 yards. | |
| 1/4/2026 12:22:00 AM | Jennings recorded four receptions on six targets for 35 yards in Saturday's 13-3 loss to the Seahawks. |
| The 49ers' offense never got on track, meaning none of their skill-position players managed a notable performance. Positively, Jennings did maintain a key role, finishing third on the team with six targets. His most impactful play was a 16-yard reception early in the fourth quarter that got San Francisco into the red zone. Overall, Jennings couldn't replicate his 2024 season, but he still ended the regular season with 55 receptions for 643 yards and nine scores across 15 contests. | |
| 1/4/2026 12:08:00 AM | Darnold completed 20 of 26 passes for 198 yards in Saturday's 13-3 win over the 49ers. He added six rushes for nine yards. |
| The Seahawks played from ahead for nearly the entire matchup and were able to rely on their very effective run game. Darnold only needed to be a game manager as a result, and he played the role effectively. He didn't make any key mistakes, was sacked only twice, and had five completions of at least 15 yards. Darnold will likely be tested more in the postseason, but he will have an additional week of rest, as Seattle locked in the top seed in the NFC with the win. | |
| 12/28/2025 12:30:00 AM | Huntley completed 16 of 20 passes for 107 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions in Saturday's 41-24 win over the Packers. He added eight rushes for 60 yards. |
| Derrick Henry powered the Baltimore offense, but Huntley did a passable job filling in for Lamar Jackson (back). He attempted passes almost exclusively in short areas of the field, with only three of his completions going for double-digit yards. Huntley did manage to connect with Zay Flowers for a 10-yard touchdown early in the fourth quarter and also picked up 25 yards on a drive just before halftime to help set up another score. Overall, Huntley helped keep the offense on schedule, and he could be under center again for a potentially pivotal Week 18 matchup against Pittsburgh, pending the health of Jackson. | |
| 12/23/2025 9:09:00 PM | Anderson tallied two tackles, including 1.0 sacks, against Las Vegas in a 23-21 Week 16 win Sunday. |
| Anderson's sack came late in the second quarter and resulted in a nine-yard loss. It pushed him up to 11.5 sacks on the campaign, surpassing his previous regular-season career high of 11.0 sacks, which he established last year. Anderson had gone a season-high three games without a sack prior to taking down Geno Smith in the backfield Sunday. | |
| 12/11/2025 7:47:00 PM | Walker (quadriceps) is active for Thursday's game against the Buccaneers, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports. |
| Walker practiced in limited fashion throughout the week after exiting Atlanta's Week 14 loss early due to a quad injury. Even with the short turnaround, Walker will be able to suit up against Tampa Bay and should play around half of the team's defensive snaps. | |
| 8/8/2025 1:28:00 AM | Lock completed 12 of 22 passes for 147 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Thursday's 23-23 preseason tie against the Raiders. He added three rushing attempts for four yards. |
| Lock got the start Thursday and played the entire first half with Seattle resting new starting quarterback Sam Darnold. The veteran backup bounced back from an interception on the opening drive to lead a touchdown drive on the next possession. Lock added a 10-yard touchdown pass to Tory Horton in the second quarter. Rookie third-round pick Jalen Milroe played the entire second half but finished with only 61 passing yards. Milroe is viewed as a raw prospect and seems to be behind Lock in the battle for the second spot on the depth chart, though avoiding turnovers will nonetheless be a point of emphasis for Lock in the team's second preseason game against the Chiefs on Aug. 15. | |
