Running back rankings this week start with pain … you’re staring at injured studs and a set of byes when you need stability most. It hurts. J.K. Dobbins just hit injured reserve for the Denver Broncos, likely done for the year per ESPN, while...

Between byes and injuries, wide receiver rankings get messy fast this week. We’re down big names: Marvin Harrison Jr. is still recovering from appendicitis for the Arizona Cardinals, Drake London is out with a PCL sprain for the Atlanta Falcons, and...

Tight end rankings this week start with another gut punch ... the position was already thin, and now a couple of true difference-makers are gone. Detroit Lions TE Sam LaPorta just landed on injured reserve with a back issue, sidelining him for at least four...

Fantasy kicker rankings this week start with volatility ... job security and health are both in play. Eddy Pineiro is expected to miss multiple games with a hamstring strain for the San Francisco 49ers, and Washington just released Matt Gay for Jake Moody...

Fantasy D/ST rankings this week come with some curveballs … a few of your go-to units are banged up or on the bench. The Denver Broncos, Miami Dolphins, Los Angeles Chargers and Washington Commanders all hit their Week 12 bye, pulling several fantasy...

A day after Pittsburgh Steelers defensive back Jalen Ramsey was ejected for throwing a punch at Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase, the NFL suspended the wideout for one game for his role in the incident. According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport,...

An absolutely wild Week 11 has left us with several injuries that may significantly impact fantasy football waiver claims entering Week 12. But before we get into looking at ailing players to track, here are the upcoming teams on bye: Denver Broncos, Los Angeles...

This week's build heavily favors an AFC North matchup that will have massive implications for both real and fake football. The best lineup configuration for Week 11's Sunday slate comes from placing your trust in more expensive running backs while turning...

From injury to bye replacements, these Week 11 fantasy football sleepers can outproduce their projections as we near the virtual postseason. Only two teams -- Indianapolis and New Orleans -- on bye suggests we don't need to get as cute when it comes to fielding...

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. has been ruled out of Week 11 play after undergoing an appendectomy, and he's considered week to week. This Sunday, Arizona hosts the divisional-rival San Francisco 49ers, a defense that has permitted the...

Fantasy gamers will find a mixed bag when it comes to matchups among the likeliest starters, and it's a good week to rely on name brands rather than trying to get fancy with fringe plays. Week 11 byes remove Daniel Jones from the player pool, and fantasy footballers...

The top back in fantasy football this season -- the Indianapolis Colts' Jonathan Taylor -- is on bye, and we're also without a former lineup lock in New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara, someone most of his owners are still starting out of necessity....
Athlon Sports Nov 11th, 3:45pm ET
We lose Michael Pittman Jr. and Chris Olave to bye weeks as the primary targets from their respective teams. Otherwise, the Indianapolis Colts offer a few fringe options in Josh Downs and Alec Pierce, whereas the New Orleans Saints' receiving corps is too...

Week 11 tight ends are deep, spanning at least 15 playable options, and that's without recent injury losses at the position as well as two starters on bye. Replacing Tyler Warren and Juwan Johnson shouldn't be overly challenging as a result. You'll find sneaky...
Athlon Sports Nov 11th, 3:43pm ET
It's a fantastic week for kicking depth as any of the first three tiers constitute viable fantasy football options. The Indianapolis Colts and New Orleans Saints are on bye, which doesn't impact the position to any notable degree. Several matchups ahead profile...

Week 10's scoring barrage saw six return touchdowns and defensive touchdowns combined, good for one off the season high, and it's even more impressive considering we didn't have byes in Week 3's TD-fest. With only the Indianapolis Colts and New Orleans Saints...

Week 11 features only two teams on bye, the Indianapolis Colts and New Orleans Saints. Fortunately, this will make fielding fantasy lineups that much easier. All told, it's shaping up to be extremely quiet week for mining free-agent gems. That means we'll...
Athlon Sports Nov 7th, 11:21pm ET
This week's build is RB-centric and relies on a few cheaper receiver options, but it's fortunately a fine slate for pivoting as desired at WR2 and No. 3. The quarterback crop is a bit trickier to traverse, but opting for a midrange price tag lets you make...
