Bengals LB Vontaze Burfict Not Fined For Hit That Concussed TE Garrett Graham

I See A Jaguar And I Want It Painted Blackmon
Before get start with the lead, can someone please explain to me what was up with the Tight End explosion this week? Garrett Graham, Benjamin Watson, and Marcedes Lewis all scored not one but two touchdowns apiece and unless you’re playing in a 20 team league with 10 flex positions, no one got in on any of that. Needless to say, the Fantasy Gods had a cruel sense of humor for...

Owen Daniels Misses Wednesday's Practice
Houston tight end Owen Daniels was unable to practice Wednesday because of a sore hip.Fantasy Spin:The Texans have a tough game coming up Sunday against Chicago and they'd certainly be better off with Daniels in their lineup.
