Fantasy Football News and Rumors

Cam "Clark Kent" Newton on the shelf for 4-8 weeks for a lisfranc injury. An injury normally requiring surgery, but they're opting not to.
Anyone else smell something fishy going on? Something like, "you've got two options, the bench, or " injury", which do you prefer?"

My money says that if Allen has another solid day, Cam suddenly hits IR

I think that is exactly what will happen. This is how teams "hide" players when something is amiss that they dont want to get out in the media.

WTF is wrong with Diggs?

Cousins...he's not good

He was open a couple of times in the Packers game but Cousins is garbage. The few times he did get a target the defense was there. He's lucky he has the one TD from the Packers game. The ball went right through Jaire's hands.

I think he will bounce back but I dont think he will put up huge numbers with Cousins at the helm.

Just benched him in one of my leagues this week in favor of Kirk.

I own him in a 16 team league and his stats really stick me off. Thus far I've won despite him stinking it up. Would love to bench him but my bench WRs are D. Robinson, Ginn and Albert Washington and Quinn. I may insert Robinson.

Austin,

It was a good run. You did so good for our team for 3 weeks...hopefully 4 weeks. If you didn't know already Melvin is taking your spot and he is not on my team...I think you should injury him in practice...actually please do that..do it for me. Our team depends on you playing, your backups on our team are Aaron and Damien. You are much better than those guys Austin. This sickens me. Well best of luck to you Austin and I hope to see you soon. I love you man.

Sincerely,

A desperate fantasy owner and your #1 fan

PS Austin, while you are hurting Melvin, could you please maybe pull a hammy or even an ACL tear would be fine (better in fact) and maybe miss 4-6 weeks.

FWIW, I think Ekeler will have some weekly flex value, especially in deeper leagues. He's too good to keep off the field. You just can't expect leading fantasy RB from him (which he's close to right now) anymore

Yeah you're right but it still saddens me

Derek Barnett is deserving of a nice cut block to let him know that shit isn’t cool. Fuck that guy

Not advocating to hurt him. Just to let
Him know he can be vulnerable

Nothing standing in Jones's way this week...possibly multiple weeks

  JONATHAN HILLIMANRB, NEW YORK GIANTS
  
  Giants promoted RB Jonathan Hilliman to the 53-man roster.
  A 23-year-old UDFA out of Rutgers, Hilliman gets the first crack at No. 3 duties behind Wayne Gallman and Elijhaa Penny as the G-Men wait on Saquon Barkley (ankle) to heal. Needless to say, it's not a good situation. The Giants might have been better off signing a veteran free agent. Hilliman took the rock 25 times for 80 yards (3.2 YPC) and two scores this preseason, adding 6/36 as a pass catcher. He averaged a dreadful 3.5 yards per carry on 485 college totes between Boston College and Rutgers.
