Indianapolis Colts quarterback Philip Rivers is having a bounce-back year on his new team but has yet to put up impressive fantasy stats. The Colts lost their first game of the season where Rivers threw 46 times. The Colts have won their last three games, and Rivers has not thrown the ball over 30 times in any of those contests. He has a difficult road

According to Cincinnati Bengals defensive end Carlos Dunlap, he will be relegated to third-down duties on defense in Week 5 against the Ravens, and he’s not happy about it. Dunlap has been with the Bengals since 2010 when he was drafted in the second round, and he’s a two-time Pro Bowler and the team’s all-time sack leader. However, the veteran is ranked 46th among 82

Los Angeles Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn named rookie quarterback Justin Herbert the starter under center moving forward. Lynn supported Tyrod Taylor as the starter before his chest injury in Week 2, but Lynn was also instrumental in selecting Herbert sixth overall in the draft in April and strongly believes in the Oregon product. It helps that Herbert has really impressed in his three starts

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) has missed back-to-back regular season practices on Wednesday and Thursday of this week for the first time in his three-year career. It was reported on Wednesday that Jackson’s knee injury wasn’t serious, and he played in 47 of 55 offensive snaps in the Week 4 win over Washington, coming out late in the 31-17 blowout victory. Fantasy managers will

New York Jets tight end Chris Herndon started off the season with a solid six-reception performance in the season-opener. However, he’s hauled in a total of five receptions since then. The Jets offense is horrendous, so that doesn’t help Herndon’s value. He’ll get a decent matchup against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 5. Veteran quarterback Joe Flacco is drawing the start over Sam Darnold (shoulder)

New York Jets wide receiver Chris Hogan could be looking at an increased role against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 5. The Jets are likely going to be without Breshad Perriman (ankle) for this game. That means, Jamison Crowder, Braxton Berrios, and Hogan could be the main options. Sadly, the Jets offense is horrendous, so Crowder is honestly the only player that can be trusted

New York Jets wide receiver Braxton Berrios looked good during Weeks 2 and 3, but he was a ghost during last week’s loss to the Denver Broncos. Berrios was targeted three times but failed to haul in any of his targets. Breshad Perriman (ankle) is unlikely to play for the third straight game, though, which means Berrios could see some action versus the Arizona Cardinals.

New York Jets wide receiver Breshad Perriman (ankle) is unlikely to suit up for the Week 5 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. He has been unable to practice each of the last two weeks. Perriman would have a tough matchup against the Cardinals pass defense, assuming he did suit up. Chris Hogan should see an extended role without Perriman available. However, Jamison Crowder remains the

New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder has been about the only positive thing on offense for this team thus far. Crowder returned in Week 4 and posted an 104-yard performance with seven receptions. Quarterback Sam Darnold (shoulder) won’t suit up for this one, so the veteran Joe Flacco will get the start versus the Arizona Cardinals. Darnold and Crowder have developed decent chemistry together,

New York Jets rookie running back La’Mical Perine has seen some action over the last few weeks due to the team having a banged-up backfield. However, Le’Veon Bell (hamstring) is expected to return from Injured Reserve for the Week 5 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. Perine didn’t have much value anyway, but the return of Bell makes Perine basically useless in redraft fantasy leagues. His

Atlanta Falcons first-round rookie cornerback A.J. Terrell was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list on Thursday. Terrell was a starter in the secondary for the first two weeks of the season before he went on the COVID-19 list before Week 3. The rookie had 11 tackles and one QB hit in his first two NFL games while playing 100 percent of the team’s defensive snaps. For

New York Jets running back Frank Gore has been a workhorse for the team over the last few games. However, Le’Veon Bell (hamstring) has a chance to return in Week 5, which would basically kill Gore’s fantasy value. The Jets will get a favorable matchup against the Arizona Cardinals, who have allowed the ninth-most fantasy points to running backs this season. Gore could carry flex

New York Jets running back Le’Veon Bell (hamstring) has been practicing this week and could be activated for the Week 5 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. He has missed each of the last three games due to a hamstring issue. The Jets offense has been horrendous, so Bell’s return can only help. It’s unclear if Bell will be limited at all, assuming he does suit

New York Jets head coach Adam Gase said that wide receiver Breshad Perriman (ankle) and rookie left tackle Mekhi Becton (shoulder) will both miss practice on Thursday. Neither player was able to practice on Wednesday either, so they’ll need to get in at least a limited practice on Friday to have a shot at playing in Week 5 against the Cardinals. Perriman has been out

Atlanta Falcons head coach Dan Quinn said that wide receiver Julio Jones (hamstring) is “making progress” and will do individual workouts in practice on Thursday. Jones sat out in Week 3 and returned in Week 4, but he aggravated the same hamstring injury he’s been fighting through since training camp and is now in danger of missing the Week 5 contest against the Panthers. It’s

New York Jets quarterback Joe Flacco is expected to draw the start under center versus the Arizona Cardinals in Week 5. Quarterback Sam Darnold (shoulder) is going to miss at least one game due to an AC joint sprain. The Jets have a horrendous offense that basically no quarterback could have success in. The Cardinals have an average pass defense, but that still won’t make

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Scotty Miller (groin, hip) is expected to play on Thursday night against the Bears, while there is also optimism that wide receiver Mike Evans (ankle) can play, according to sources informed of the situation. Both players are listed as questionable. Evans will test out his ankle in pre-game warmups. If active, Evans is tough to sit after going for seven

Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki started off the season hot, but has cooled down over the last two games. Gesicki has hauled in two total receptions for 30 yards over each of the last two weeks. It isn’t going to get easier for Gesicki as he heads into a matchup with the San Francisco 49ers in Week 5. A team that has not allowed

Another Tennessee Titans player has tested positive for COVID-19 and an inconclusive test from the previous day is also positive, according to a source. With more positives continuing to come in this week for the Titans, their game this Sunday against the Bills is now in doubt. Going back to last week, the Titans have had 12 players and nine personnel members test positive. This

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Isaiah Ford is coming off a performance where he saw a season-high 10 targets in Week 4. The Dolphins don’t have many weapons on offense, but it appears they enjoy throwing in the direction of Ford. He hauled in four of those 10 targets for 48 yards in the loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Ford has some promising upside after seeing
