Week 3 Fantasy Football News

Tucker Kraft, Green Bay Packers

Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft (knee) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns. Kraft suffered a knee injury during practice earlier in the week but was able to progress enough not to miss any action. Through the first two weeks of this season, Kraft has enjoyed a strong start as he has found the back of the end zone twice and caught eight of his 11 targets for 140 yards.

Much of his yardage total in Week 2 came when he tallied 124 during their victory over the Washington Commanders. Despite his injury, fantasy managers should feel confident starting Kraft in all formats as a high-end TE1, as he should remain a top target in the passing game for Jordan Love.

Jauan Jennings, San Francisco 49ers

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings (ankle) will not suit up in Week 3 when the 49ers face the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday afternoon. Jennings is unable to practice all week due to the ankle injury. Managers should continue to monitor his status as he may not be able to play in Week 4 depending the severity of his injury. In Week 2, Jennings enjoyed a productive showing, catching five of his 10 targets for 89 yards and a touchdown. In Week 1, Jennings caught only two of his five targets for 16 yards.

With Jennings sitting out, managers should expect Ricky Pearsall to operate as the team's lead pass catcher, while Kendrick Bourne should move up to the No. 2 role. However, most of the workload should go through running back Christian McCaffrey, who carries high-end RB1 upside in this contest.
