Texans Release Donte Moncrief rotoballer.com Tue 7/27/21 10:57 PM

The Houston Texans have released wide receiver Donte Moncrief with a non-football injury designation, a move that starts to simplify Houston's crowded receiver room. Moncrief was always a long shot to make the Texans roster, as the team had a lot of young and veteran players on the roster. This move makes it easier for either Chris Conley or Isaiah Coulter to make the final roster, though both still face an uphill battle when it comes to seeing the field. Moncrief wasn't on the fantasy radar ...

Texans Add Receivers Donte Moncrief, Alex Erickson rotoballer.com Thu 3/18/21 11:40 PM

The Houston Texans signed free-agent wide receiver Donte Moncrief and former Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Alex Erickson to undisclosed one-year deals on Thursday, according to a source. There is opportunity in Houston with Will Fuller V leaving for the Dolphins, but Moncrief and Erickson figure to fight for playing time behind Brandin Cooks, Randall Cobb and Keke Coutee. Moncrief, 27, was a non-factor in just six games for the New England Patriots last year and has become mostly a special ...

Donte Moncrief Returns To Active Roster For Monday’s Game rotoballer.com Mon 12/28/20 7:07 PM

New England Patriots wide receiver Donte Moncrief (thigh) has rejoined the team's active roster for Monday's contest versus the Bills. Having missed one week due to a thigh injury, the Patriots get the veteran back to add to their receiver depth, even as he has extremely limited fantasy intrigue with one reception for 15 yards across his four games in 2020. Moncrief is set to be at least the No. 4 option in the passing game behind Jakobi Meyers, Damiere Byrd, and N'Keal Harry, although New ...

Damien Harris, Donte Moncrief Will Miss Sunday’s Game rotoballer.com Sat 12/19/20 4:15 PM

New England Patriots running back Damien Harris (ankle) and wide receiver Donte Moncrief (thigh) have both been ruled out for Sunday's contest against Miami. The New England backfield continues to take its brunt of injury woes with Sony Michel now in line to lead the group against a stout Dolphins Defense in Week 15. Moncrief's absence leaves Damiere Byrd, Jakobi Meyers, and N'Keal Harry as the clear frontrunners to continue receiving targets from Cam Newton at the WR position. Harris has logged...

Patriots Add Donte Moncrief To Practice Squad rotoballer.com Wed 11/4/20 5:15 PM

The New England Patriots signed wide receiver Donte Moncrief and defensive lineman Ryan Glasgow to their practice squad on Wednesday. The Patriots continue to look for receiver depth with Julian Edelman (knee) on Injured Reserve and N'Keal Harry (concussion) missing the last two games. Moncrief was cut by the Jets in October and hasn't caught a pass yet in 2020. The 27-year-old who was drafted in the third round by the Colts in 2014 could eventually make his way to New England's active roster, ...

Panthers Claim Donte Moncrief Off Waivers rotoballer.com Mon 11/4/19 4:31 PM

The Carolina Panthers claimed wide receiver Donte Moncrief off waivers from the Steelers on Monday, according to a source. Moncrief proved to be a failure in Pittsburgh, racking up just four catches on 15 targets for 18 yards in five games before he was let go. He'll be fourth on the depth chart in Carolina behind D.J. Moore, Curtis Samuel and Jarius Wright. That won't yield any fantasy value, especially with quarterback Kyle Allen likely to remain under center for the rest of the season with ...

Steelers Waive Donte Moncrief rotoballer.com Sat 11/2/19 4:22 PM

The Pittsburgh Steelers waived wide receiver Donte Moncrief on Saturday and promoted running back Tony Brooks-James to the 53-man roster in a corresponding move. Moncrief never made an impact in Pittsburgh, and he never really had a chance once quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (elbow) was lost for the season. The 26-year-old caught just four passes (15 targets) for 18 yards in four games this season. He was already well off the fantasy radar before being cut. Brooks-James will serve as depth ...

Donte Moncrief Unusable In Week 3 rotoballer.com Thu 9/19/19 12:39 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Donte Moncrief has five drops through two games. He's likely still feeling the effects of a dislocated finger from the preseason but drops are drops, and him being bench in the second half of Week 2's game paints a picture of where he is on the depth chart. Many are clamoring for the Steelers to outright release him, and while they still may, he has no place on any fantasy roster against the 49ers in Week 3.

Donte Moncrief Benched After Third-Quarter Drop rotoballer.com Sun 9/15/19 5:13 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Donte Moncrief dropped his only target during Sunday's loss to Seattle. Mason Rudolph started the second half after Ben Roethlisberger (elbow) wasn't able to continue. His Moncrief look was his second career NFL throw and it went right through the receiver's hands and into the mits of a Seattle defender. The 26-year-old didn't see the field after the drop. After catching just three of 10 targets to open the season, Moncrief is easily droppable in all fantasy ...

Donte Moncrief Ready To Prove Week 1 Was A Fluke rotoballer.com Sat 9/14/19 9:13 AM

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Donte Moncrief led the team with 10 targets in the team's Week 1 loss to the Patriots. However, he only caught three ofthem for seven yards and dropped four others, including a third-quarter touchdown. Moncrief is encouraged that quarterback Ben Roethlisberger publicly expressed his confidence in the first-year Steeler.Thats huge for a guy like that, especially, to come out and say something like that, Moncrief said. Pittsburgh is in a bounce-back opportunity ...
