Bengals QB Joe Burrow threw almost as many TD passes as incompletions in Sunday's win over the 49ers. He went 28 of 32 for 283 yards and 3 TDs against a defense that entered the week ranked fifth in pass DVOA. His 134.8 passer rating marked a season high by a wide margin, as did Burrow's 43 rushing yards. The bye undoubtedly helped, even if only by allowing WR Tee Higgins (ribs) to get off the injury report. Burrow and his 7.1% TD rate over the past three games looks like a good weekly bet going forward. Week 9 holds a potential shootout at home vs. Buffalo.
Colts RB Zack Moss (elbow, heel) is active for today’s game vs. the Saints. He only got in a limited practice on Thursday and was reportedly a game-time decision, so it’s safe to assume that Moss will not be at 100% today. That could mean more work for RB Jonathan Taylor.
Colts RB Zack Moss (heel, elbow) "plans to play" vs. the Saints today, "barring no setbacks in pregame warmups," according to insider Jordan Schultz. It sounds like Moss' heel injury is a bigger issue than the elbow. It's certainly possible that he cedes even more work to RB Jonathan Taylor today. Consider Moss a risky RB3 or flex play.
Colts RB Zack Moss "wants to see how his foot feels once he puts pressure on it in pre-game warmups before deciding whether he can play vs. the Saints" today, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Moss is officially questionable with heel and elbow injuries after only getting in a limited practice on Thursday. It's safe to assume he'll be at less than 100% if he does end up active later today.
The Panthers have ruled S Vonn Bell (quad) out for the second straight game. He missed the full week of practice coming out of the Week 7 bye. S Xavier Woods, on the other hand, appears to be trending toward a Sunday return. He's questionable for Sunday's game against the Texans after finishing the week with a full Friday practice. Woods has been out since Week 3. We'll check his status Sunday.
Colts RB Zack Moss (elbow, heel) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Saints. He only got in a limited practice on Thursday, so he seems legitimately iffy. Moss’ absence would obviously be a big boost for RB Jonathan Taylor.
Colts RB Zack Moss (elbow, heel) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. He should be available for this weekend's game vs. the Saints, but check back tomorrow to see how Moss is listed on the final injury report.
Colts RB Zack Moss (elbow, heel) did not practice on Wednesday. He seemed to make it out of last week's game fine, so we're guessing this is more of a maintenance day. Check back tomorrow for another update on Moss' status for Sunday's game vs. the Saints.
Colts RB Zack Moss ran for just 21 yards on 7 carries, as Indy barely tried the ground game in a lopsided loss to the Jaguars. He scored from 3 yards out in the fourth quarter, though, and added a 6-38 receiving line on 7 targets. That tied him for third on the team in targets. Jonathan Taylor got much closer to Moss in his second game back, beating Moss by 1 carry and trailing him by just 1 target. A Week 7 meeting with the Browns looks tough for the whole offense.
Bengals QB Joe Burrow completed 24 of 35 attempts for 185 yards, 2 TDs, and 1 INT against Seattle. The Bengals ran only 53 plays in this one, but Burrow clearly wasn’t at his best. He at least salvaged his day with first-half scores to Tyler Boyd (8 yards) and Andrei Iosivas (3 yards). Burrow enters a Week 7 bye before a tough road date at San Francisco.
Bengals WR Tee Higgins managed only 2 catches for 20 yards in Sunday’s win over Seattle. Coming back from a cracked rib, the contract-year WR posted just a 56.7% route rate (21/37) – third among Cincy WRs. Higgins’ 11.5% target share ranked fourth on the team. He should be back to his normal role following a Week 7 bye.
Bengals WR Tee Higgins (ribs) is active for today’s game vs. the Seahawks. We haven’t heard anything about his snaps being limited today with what’s reportedly a pain-management issue. But there’s still some risk of re-injury. See where Higgins sits in the Week 6 WR Rankings.
Bengals WR Tee Higgins (ribs) is expected to play vs. the Seahawks on Sunday, ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports. Higgins' rib injury is a pain-management issue, so there's a chance that he's able to play a full allotment of snaps. But there's still elevated risk to using him in Week 6 fantasy lineups. See where Higgins sits in the WR Rankings.
Bengals WR Tee Higgins (ribs) is listed as questionable for this weekend's game vs. the Seahawks. He practiced all week, including a full workout on Friday. But HC Zac Taylor labeled Higgins a game-time decision. "It’s really just tolerating the pain," Higgins said Friday. "It’s probably going to be like this for the rest of the season until I can heal up for months.” We'll look for further updates on Higgins' status and will get Cincinnati's inactives around 11:30 am ET on Sunday.
The Panthers have ruled S Vonn Bell and S Xavier Woods out for Sunday's game against the Dolphins. Woods comes as no surprise, as he's dealing with a multi-week hamstring injury. Bell suffered a quad injury Thursday that kept him out of Friday's practice. Sam Franklin has been starting in Woods' spot and carries tackle upside into a matchup with speedy Miami. We'll see who fills in for Bell. IDP managers would love to get full playing time for Jeremy Chinn, but he played a season-low 30% of the snaps in Week 5, despite injuries at safety and LB. Fifth-round rookie Jammie Robinson is the other SS candidate. You can stash Chinn for now in case he gets the nod, or you could simply avoid the situation (beyond Franklin). We'll watch for more details.
Bengals WR Tee Higgins (rib) remained limited in Thursday's practice. But he said afterward that it’s looking “promising” for him to play Sunday vs. the Seahawks. We'll see how he's listed on the final injury report tomorrow.
Bengals WR Tee Higgins (ribs) was limited in Wednesday's practice. He was limited last Friday before missing the Cardinals game. Higgins is uncertain for this weekend's game vs. the Seahawks. We'll keep you updated on his status over the next few days.
Bengals WR Tee Higgins (rib) is considered "day-to-day" this week, HC Zac Taylor said Monday. Higgins returned to a limited practice last Friday, so he seems to have some chance to play vs. the Seahawks this weekend. We'll track his status throughout the week.
Bengals WR Ja’Marr Chase exploded on Sunday with a whopping 15 catches on 19 targets for 192 receiving yards and 3 TDs vs. the Cardinals. It took until October for him to score a TD, but he more than made up for the drought in Week 5. Nothing says superstar like a 41.3% target share, finding the end zone thrice, and not even passing your own career-high in PPR fantasy points (2021 Week 17, 55.6). Let’s hope Burrow and Chase keep cooking in Week 6 vs. the Seahawks.
Looks like Bengals QB Joe Burrow’s calf might finally be feeling better. On Sunday, Burrow completed 36 of 46 attempts for 317 passing yards with 3 TDs and 1 INT vs. the Cardinals. Fantasy managers in 1QB leagues who opted to bench him might be annoyed, but at least there’s some hope that the old Burrow is back now. He’ll have a chance to build upon this performance in Week 6 vs. the Seahawks.
