Green’s promotion coincides with OG/C Willie Lampkin being placed on injured reserve. Lampkin was waived by the Rams with an injury designation after suffering a preseason knee injury. Lampkin will be eligible to return after four games missed.31 August 2025
The Eagles drafted Mukuba in the second round this year. He was competing with Sydney Brown for one of the starting safety roles when he suffered a shoulder injury in late July. He later picked up a groin injury upon returning. Mukuba is likely slated for a backup role early in the year, but his draft capital should get him more opportunities to take over as a starter as the year progresses.31 August 2025
Winfrey, 25, has had a bumpy ride in professional football, playing both in the NFL and UFL. He made it through final cuts, listed as a third-string defensive tackle. The Cowboys, now organizationally committed to stopping the run, need all the help they can get on the defensive line. Hopefully, Winfrey is available in Week 1, even if only for a handful of snaps.31 August 2025
The Vikings recently brought back Adam Thielen via trade, with Jordan Addison set to serve a three-game suspension, and immediately listed Thielen as the fill-in No. 2 wide receiver. ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports that “Minnesota envisions a key role for Nailor, especially with Jordan Addison out via suspension,” but that’s tough to trust given his injury and the recent personnel development. Nailor is best-suited to single-game DFS lineups and should really only be considered for flex dut ...31 August 2025
This extension has been in the works since July, but it was likely held up by the Micah Parsons fiasco. It includes $50 million in guarantees. The fourth-year pro is expected to return to the slot-coverage role that he excelled in during his first two NFL seasons, where he racked up eight pass breakups and 14 interceptions. He primarily played on the outside last year, breaking up just three passes and recording zero interceptions.31 August 2025
Per head coach Andy Reid, Royals is the only player on the active roster who was unable to practice today. A 22-year-old player already dealing with tendinitis is less than ideal, but overall, this is great news. The Chiefs’ wide receiver corps was feeling a little thin, following Rashee Rice’s six-game suspension. Hollywood Brown (ankle) returned to practice on August 18th. Reports on his rehab have been sparse, but we take Reid’s comments on Royals as an indirect positive on Brown’s re ...31 August 2025
Rodriguez spent 2024 floating between the practice squad and active roster, and was told by ST coach Larry Izzo to refine himself physically. He had swelled to 235 pounds following a high-ankle sprain in his 2023 rookie season. Rodriguez, now tipping the scales at 222, said he was clocked at 20-plus MPH “more times in training camp than I have in almost my whole life.” His improved speed was evident on a 40-yard preseason scamper, during which he hit 20.37 MPH. Rodriguez also hired private r ...31 August 2025

Sanders threw a punch towards Bills tight end Zach Davidson in the team’s third preseason contest and was eventually waived by the franchise. Coming after his release, the fine represents more than three times Sanders’ guaranteed money this season. Sanders remained unsigned.30 August 2025
According to a report from ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Coker will miss at least the first four games of the season with a quad injury. He was looking like a great late-round receiver option with the Panthers trading Adam Thielen and recent reports that Coker would primarily work out of the slot. While the Panthers have signed Hunter Renfrow to the active roster, Xavier Legette is the most likely to benefit from Coker’s absence as the Panthers’ WR2.30 August 2025
Renfrow is back with the Panthers mere days after being cut, according to a report from ESPN’s Adam Schefter. The Panthers can better use Renfrow’s services now after they traded Adam Thielen to the Vikings and Jalen Coker (quad) went down with an injury. Renfrow could see a good amount of work from the slot in at least the first four games of the season as that’s where the team planned on using Coker. Can a Hunter Renfrow PPR scam work in 2025? I guess we’re going to find out.30 August 2025

Coker was looking like a great late-round receiver option with the Panthers trading Adam Thielen and recent reports that Coker would primarily work out of the slot.

Burrow is fully healthy and the Bengals believe “he might have actually improved his accuracy and decision-making” this summer. Though Burrow lacks the rushing upside that the other elite QB1s possess, his exceptional passing talents and top-tier receiving weapons keep him firmly in the top-five conversation. The Bengals also reportedly believe Ja’Marr Chase looks “like he could still be ascending after leading the NFL with 127 catches, 1,708 yards and 17 touchdowns.”30 August 2025
Bueckers matched her career high in assists on Friday night, recording 10 of them in addition to earning her second career points-assists double-double. Bueckers found four different teammates including Maddy Siegrist, Myisha Hines-Allen, Amy Okonkwo and Grace Berger. She found Siegrist in transition, which has become par for the course. Okonkwo, Hines-Allen and Berger had open driving lanes that Bueckers was able to find. When it came to her scoring, Bueckers attacked the basket and scored most ...30 August 2025

Kubiak is expected to feature a zone rushing attack while confusing defenses with motion and attacking downfield via play-action. No. 2 RB Zach Charbonnet had a great training camp while starting RB Kenneth Walker III nursed a sore foot, though Walker is now back in action. Should Charbonnet force a timeshare, or even take over the starting job, both he and Walker should produce fruitful weeks regularly. Jaxon Smith-Njigba is in line for a large workload, operating as Seattle’s inside-outside ...30 August 2025
Emmanwori “has been a playmaking force in practice,” and will “eventually” take on a similar role as the one Ravens S Kyle Hamilton played in head coach Mike Macdonald’s scheme when he served as the defensive coordinator in Baltimore. Howe believes “Macdonald’s defense should be even better in his second season.” It’s squarely on the D/ST1 radar.30 August 2025
Parsons assured Packers fans that he will be available for Week 1, saying he knows that the team “didn’t give up what they gave up for me to sit on the sideline.” It’s good to know his rehab program has cured him of that dreaded ailment. The Packers’ D/ST looks like one of fantasy football’s best, but they face stiff tests against the Lions and Commanders to open the season.30 August 2025
Golden punctuated his “tremendous camp” by starting alongside Romeo Doubs in the Packers’ third preseason game. With Christian Watson (knee) out for at least four games on the reserve/physically unable to perform list and Jayden Reed (foot) rehabbing a Jones fracture, Golden’s path to No. 1 pass-catcher duties is clear. Rookies sometimes develop slowly but Golden might be able to hit the ground running as a WR4 with upside.
