Carlos Sainz says that his best ever season in Formula 1 in 2019 shows that he was right to make the move to McLaren. Sainz started his F1 career with Toro Rosso in 2015, and he spent last season on loan to Renault. However he missed out on the chance of a long time spot at Enstone when the team opted to sign Daniel Ricciardo instead. That left the Spanish driver in a quandary as…

Derrius Guice looks like a knee injury may end his season yet again, leaving fantasy owners constantly wondering what he can become. A knee injury may also spell the end of Rashaad Penny’s season, while Bo Scarbrough’s time as Lions’ starter could be coming to an end due to a ribs injury. There could be a lot of Adrian Peterson in Weeks 15 and 16, if you’re feeling like picking up a future Hall of…
The meaning of tonight’s “Monday Night Football” game is different for both teams. The Eagles, who will host the Giants in a game scheduled to kick off at 8:15 p.m. ET on ESPN, are desperate to stay alive in the NFC East race and, in turn, the NFL playoff picture. New York, already eliminated from playoff contention, has its eyes on the No. 1 pick in the 2020 NFL Draft. Yet Monday night’s game might…
Our Week 15 fantasy RB rankings will be affected by injuries — it’s just a matter of which players actually wind up dropping out. Josh Jacobs and Derrick Henry both are every-week fantasy starters who are hurting a bit (Jacobs more than Henry). There’s also a Le’Veon Bell illness ahead of a Thursday Night Football game to account for, along with new injuries to Derrius Guice, Rashaad Penny and Bo Scarbrough and existing injuries to James…

For the first time this season for Eagles fans and the second time this season for Giants fans, those who wish to watch their team’s game will have to scan their TV channels for ESPN. New York at Philadelphia is the featured game on “Monday Night Football” in Week 14. This game means nothing for the Giants, who are 2-10 and already eliminated from the NFL playoff picture. But don’t say that to those in their locker room;…
It’s a mix of good news and bad news when it comes to running back injuries in Week 14. Dalvin Cook, Marlon Mack, and Matt Breida didn’t even make their respective teams’ final injury reports, but James Conner, Damien Williams, and Le’Veon Bell have already been ruled out. That leaves Josh Jacobs and Jordan Howard as the key “questionable” RBs, and with one playing in the late afternoon and the other playing Monday night, fantasy owners will…
