Zach Cunningham
LB - Detroit Lions - IR
Week 14 Outlook
Availability
Zach Cunningham has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chiefs.
Fantasy Impact
Cunningham is battling a hamstring injury. He was one of four players ruled out for Detroit.
The Lions signed LB Zach Cunningham.
Fantasy Impact
Cunningham will compete in OTAs and training camp for a depth role in the Lions linebacker room.
The Eagles signed free agent LB Zach Cunningham Sunday.
Fantasy Impact
Cunningham spent the last two season with the Titans, tallying 15 tackles in six games in 2022. The former second-round pick will compete for a roster spot in training camp and look to help in the Eagles’ defense in 2023, which currently ranks third in ECR, according to FantasyPros.
The Houston Texans have released linebacker Zach Cunningham.
Fantasy Impact
Cunningham had been starting with Christian Kirksey sidelined but was suspended by the team for Week 13 due to habitual tardiness to team activities. Cunningham, drafted as an LB1 this offseason in IDP leagues, lost his job to Kamu Grugier-Hill earlier this season and would have played sparingly even if he remained on the team. With the new regime attempting to establish a new culture, Cunningham has been made an example of. If claimed, he could make an immediate IDP impact and should be given a look by at least one team if he clears waivers. He is worth a speculative add for those who have roster space.
The Houston Texans came to terms with LB Zach Cunningham on a four-year, $58 million extension.
Fantasy Impact
The three-year standout has tallied 339 tackles, one interception and 13 passes defended in 46 games for Houston since they selected him in the second round of the 2017 NFL Draft. Though Cunningham's being paid as a top tier LB, his fantasy value is more like that of a high-end tier-three IDP. Maybe this season he'll find 14.5 million reasons to crack his way into the top tier finally.
