Latest NFL Player News Albert Connell , WR WAS - Hunter Shively Updated 11/28/00 Connell's status for Sunday's game against the Giants is seriously in doubt. He sprained his knee in last week's game against the Eagles, and Head Coach Norv Turner has already stated that Connell will not start. This should serve notice to Fantasy owners who have Connell on their roster not to put him in their lineup this week. Irving Fryar , WR WAS - Free Agent Updated 11/28/00 Head Coach Norv Turner has stated that Fryar will get the start this week against the Giants. He had four catches for 50 yards in last week's loss to the Eagles, and could see extended playing time if Albert Connell is unable to play for the 'Skins. Fryar isn't the type of receiver you want to depend on for production, especially with the Fantasy league playoffs looming. Consider another option if your roster allows it. James Thrash , WR WAS - Free Agent Updated 11/28/00 The Washington wideout caught five passes for 121 yards and a touchdown in last Sunday's loss to the Eagles. He seemed to thrive with Jeff George under center, but now that Brad Johnson is back from injury, it may be a return to mediocrity. Thrash could, however, see some looks this week if Albert Connell's knee injury keeps him from playing extended minutes. Jackie Harris , TE DAL - Free Agent Updated 11/28/00 Harris sprained his left knee in last week's loss to the Vikings. However, the injury shouldn't keep Harris from playing this week as Dallas travels to Tampa Bay to face the Buccaneers. After a fast start, Harris has really been quieted by opposing defenses in recent weeks. He is a good backup tight end in most Fantasy leagues, but his inconsistent numbers keep him from being an every week starter. Cowboys , DT DAL - Free Agent Updated 11/28/00 The Doomsday Defense has now become The M.A.S.H. unit. The Cowboys lost yet another player on Monday when defensive end Peppi Zellner tore his ACL in practice, effectively ending his season. Zellner now joins Leon Lett (knee), George Teague (foot), Chad Hennings (neck) and Darren Woodson (arm) on the long list of defensive players who have been injured this season. Only Woodson is still available to the team, but his status for this week's game at Tampa Bay is still uncertain. With all of the injuries on defense coupled with a brutal final four weeks of the season, it would be a good idea to drop Dallas' unit before the playoffs. Emmitt Smith , RB DAL - Rocks Updated 11/28/00 Smith, who suffered a concussion on Thanksgiving Day against the Vikings, is expected to start this Sunday at Tampa Bay. He was held out of practice on Monday for precautionary reasons but will return to the field for Dallas' first full practice of the week on Wednesday. Dallas is likely to give Smith the ball quite a bit on Sunday, as they attempt to establish the run against a tough Bucs' defense. Stephen Davis , RB WAS - Matt Lenhart Updated 11/28/00 Head Coach Norv Turner has indicated that Davis should be ready to play in this week's pivotal NFC East matchup against the Giants. Davis missed last week's game against the Eagles with a hairline fracture of his right forearm. The return of Davis is great news for Fantasy players who own his rights, especially with the playoffs just around the corner. Kurt Warner , QB STL - Baja Updated 11/28/00 It's official - Rams Coach Mike Martz has announced that Warner will be his starting quarterback against Carolina on Sunday. This is good news for Fantasy owners of Rams players, as the team is a lot stronger offensively when Warner is taking the snaps. Peerless Price , WR BUF - Matt Lenhart Updated 11/27/00 Price caught six passes for 44 yards in Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers. He has been a major disappointment this season to Fantasy owners who took a chance on him. In fact, Price hasn't caught a touchdown pass since Week One against the Titans. Unless you are involved in a deep league, look elsewhere for a reserve wideout. Jay Riemersma , TE BUF - Free Agent Updated 11/27/00 Riemersma caught five passes for 82 yards in Sunday's 31-17 loss to the Buccaneers. Although he may not post solid numbers every week, his production is consistent enough to warrant a starting spot in many Fantasy leagues. Keep Riemersma on you roster as the playoffs approach. Scott Mitchell , QB CIN - Free Agent Updated 11/27/00 The Bengals have upgraded Mitchell's condition from questionable to probable for next Sunday's game against Arizona. Coach Dick LeBeau has not yet named his starter for that game, although Mitchell would give the Cincinnati offense its best shot at solid Fantasy numbers. Akili Smith , QB CIN - Free Agent Updated 11/27/00 Smith completed 10 of 20 passes for 129 yards and a touchdown Sunday against Pittsburgh, and the Bengals applauded his efforts in the game. His teammates said he was as sharp and confident on the field as he's been all season. Coach Dick LeBeau hasn't yet named his starter for next Sunday, although we wouldn't recommend either Cincinnati quarterback at this stage of the Fantasy season. Eric Moulds , WR BUF - Matt Lenhart Updated 11/27/00 Moulds had a huge day against the Bucs, catching eight passes while accounting for 122 yards of total offense and a touchdown. Look for Moulds to post good numbers this week against the Dolphins, a team who he has absolutely killed in the past. Kevin Johnson , WR CLE - Top Dogs Updated 11/27/00 Johnson led the Browns with four catches for 85 yards Sunday against Baltimore, although most of that was due to a 67-yard reception that set up a Browns touchdown on the game's first drive. He's the closest thing to a viable Fantasy starter on the Browns, although the lack of a reliable passing game will limit his value over the season's final weeks. Dennis Northcutt , WR CLE - Free Agent Updated 11/27/00 Coach Chris Palmer has become increasingly frustrated with Northcutt in recent weeks, according to the Akron Beacon Journal . Northcutt has been dropping too many passes and committing costly fumbles, including one on a punt return Sunday against Baltimore. He had no catches on the day. Palmer is likely to start Northcutt the rest of the season, but he's not a recommended Fantasy receiver. Stephen Alexander , TE WAS - Free Agent Updated 11/27/00 Alexander had a productive day for Washington, catching four passes for 39 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's loss to the Eagles. The 'Skins tight end hasn't been consistent at all this season, however, so use another option at the position if at all possible. Doug Pederson , QB CLE - Free Agent Updated 11/27/00 Pederson completed just eight of 16 passes for 108 yards and an interception Sunday against Baltimore before being lifted in the second quarter for backup Spergon Wynn. We don't recommend Pederson over the season's final weeks, as the Browns' offense is showing how much injuries have depleted it this year. Spergon Wynn , QB CLE - Free Agent Updated 11/27/00 Wynn, who replaced Doug Pederson at the start of the second half of Sunday's game against Baltimore, wasn't overly successful in the 18 plays he was a part of. He completed five of nine passes, but they went for just 30 yards, and he was sacked four times, losing a fumble once. Coach Chris Palmer continues to say he wants to bring Wynn along slowly, and the Browns' offense is reeling, so don't expect much from him over the season's final weeks. Chris Redman , QB BAL - Free Agent Updated 11/27/00 Redman was called upon during the fourth quarter of Sunday's game against Cleveland, although he did not attempt a pass. Unless Baltimore runs away with any of its next three games, he will likely not see any more action this season. Matt Stover , K BAL - Matt Lenhart Updated 11/27/00 Stover kicked three field goals Sunday against Cleveland, breaking his single-season mark of 29 and passing the 1,000-point mark for his career. He added five extra points and now has an NFL-best 116 points on the season. Unless you hear otherwise, Stover should be a permanent fixture in your starting lineup for the remainder of the season. David Akers , K PHI - Free Agent Updated 11/27/00 Akers kicked two field goals against the Redskins, including what turned out to be the game winner. He connected on boots of 33 and 30 yards, and has now kicked nine field goals in his last three games. Look for Akers' success to continue this week against the Titans, in game where the placekickers could play a major role in the final score. Jeff Thomason , TE PHI - Free Agent Updated 11/27/00 Talk about a good touchdown percentage - Thomason has caught only nine passes all year, but five have been for a touchdown. Although he does seem to get into the end zone quite a bit, don't let the numbers fool you. Unless you are in a deeper Fantasy league, Thomason won't be a reliable option when it comes time for your playoffs to begin. Sam Gash , RB BAL - Free Agent Updated 11/27/00 Gash, making his sixth start in place of injured Obafemi Ayanbadejo, had a two-yard touchdown pass in yesterday's game against Cleveland. Don't take that to mean he's a sleeper over the remainder of the season; Gash had just one other catch (for six yards) in the game and will continue to serve almost entirely as a blocker, a role he is perfectly-suited for. Shaun King , QB TB - Tori Kuykendall Updated 11/27/00 King was rather mediocre against the Bills Sunday. He completed 10-of-18 passes for 106 yards. King has now gone two consecutive games without throwing a touchdown pass. That should change this week when he faces a Dallas defense with an almost nonexistent pass rush. The Cowboys have a league worst 17 sacks this season. King's offensive line will provide him with plenty of time to pick the Cowboys' secondary apart. Ravens , DT BAL - Eric Bass Updated 11/27/00 Although Cleveland scored a touchdown on its opening drive Sunday, becoming the first team to achieve the feat this season, the Ravens' defense posted yet another dominating performance. Foiled in its quest to post its record-tying fifth shutout of the season, Baltimore held the Browns to just seven points and a staggering 112 net yards. The Ravens also had six sacks, an interception and two fumble recoveries in the game. It's probably safe to say that owners of this defense are already playoff-bound. Although Baltimore has its bye week next, Fantasy owners have to be happy to sport this defense during their playoff run, as the team faces weaker offenses San Diego and Arizona coming off the bye. Charles Johnson , WR PHI - Free Agent Updated 11/27/00 Johnson has been very unproductive over Philadelphia's last five games, compiling only only eleven catches and 94 yards receiving. None of Philadelphia's receivers, including Johnson, is worth wasting a roster spot on at this point. Look for better reserve wideouts before your playoffs begin. Torrance Small , WR PHI - Free Agent Updated 11/27/00 Small could only haul in one pass for 18 yards against the Redskins. He has been a real disappointment to Fantasy owners who took a chance on him, catching only one pass in four of his last five games. It's time to look for an alternative to Small if he is still on your roster. Tony Banks , QB BAL - Matt Lenhart Updated 11/27/00 Banks was called on during the third quarter of Sunday's game against Cleveland after it was well out of hand. He completed just two of three passes for 45 yards, but looked respectable in a reserve role. Although that's good news for the Ravens, don't read into this as a sign he'll get much, if any, playing time during Baltimore's final three games. Keyshawn Johnson , WR TB - Top Dogs Updated 11/27/00 Johnson is struggling once again. He had just two catches for 15 yards against the Bills Sunday. After catching four TDs in three games, Johnson has just four catches in the last two. Chad Lewis , TE PHI - Free Agent Updated 11/27/00 Lewis was solid in Sunday's win over Washington, catching six passes for 53 yards in the game. He has had three consecutive productive games after a bit of a mid-season slump, and should get a number of looks this week against Tennessee. Keep him in the starting lineup as your Fantasy playoffs approach. More Updates Copyright 2000 Commissioner.COM Inc and SportsLine.com Inc.
