Wide Receiver Waiver Wire Pickups - Top Fantasy Football WR Adds for Week 3 Include Wan'Dale Robinson, Romeo Doubs, Troy Franklin, Dyami Brown

Welcome RotoBallers to our fantasy football wide receiver waiver wire pickups for Week 3 of the 2025 NFL season. Sunday was chock-full of massive performances and disappointments. It was nice to see Detroit rebound in their 52-21 mollywhopping of the Bears. On the other side of that coin, the Packers' defense looks legit. Not to […]

Mason Taylor Can't Cash in on Jets' TE1 Role

As expected, New York Jets tight end Mason Taylor is far and away the team's TE1, although it hasn't amounted to much on the stat sheet. After leading teammates Jeremy Ruckert and Andrew Beck in snaps by a wide margin in their loss to the Steelers in Week 1, the same was true in their […]

Backfield Battle Brewing for Braelon Allen?

New York Jets second-year running back Braelon Allen took a step back in Week 2 regarding his share of offensive snaps. The Buffalo Bills manhandled the Jets to the tune of 30-10 at home, and whether it was due to game script or by design, Allen handled a significantly smaller snap total than in Week […]

Breece Hall Runs Cold in Week 2 Shellacking - Rebound on Tap?

Week 2 didn't go as expected for running back Breece Hall and the New York Jets' offense. The 24-year-old exploded for 107 rushing yards in the team's season opener, notching his first 100-yard effort on the ground since Week 6 of last season. However, Buffalo's defense proved too much for quarterback Justin Fields, who seemed […]

Grounded: Garrett Wilson, Jets' Offense Stall After Week 1 Outburst

After an encouraging Week 1 performance, New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson and the remainder of the offense came crashing back to Earth in their 30-10 home loss to the Buffalo Bills. Justin Fields looked like a completely different player in Week 2, completing just 3-of-11 passes for 27 yards. In turn, the rest […]

Tyquan Thornton Maximizes Minimal Opportunities

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyquan Thornton scored his first touchdown since Week 17 of 2022 in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the visiting Philadelphia Eagles. The Baylor alum connected with quarterback Patrick Mahomes on just 2-of-5 targets in Week 2, but he made them count -- syncing up on a 49-yard score where the wideout […]

Calvin Austin III Remains Involved, Leads Receiving Corps in Snaps

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Calvin Austin III was not as productive this past Sunday as he was in Week 1's win over the Jets. However, he was Pittsburgh's leading snap-getter amongst the team's wideouts. Austin III reeled in just 1-of-4 targets for 22 yards in their 31-17 loss to the Seattle Seahawks, but participated on […]

Kenneth Gainwell Again Out-Targets Backfield Mates

While Pittsburgh Steelers running back Kenneth Gainwell outsnapped teammate Jaylen Warren in Week 1 (30 to 25), the roles reversed in Week 2 with the latter leading the duo 36 to 26. Despite less time on the field, the 26-year-old picked up five targets -- again besting his backfield mate in that category. Warren still […]

Romeo Doubs Continues Pacing Packers' WRs in Snaps

Despite a lack of gaudy numbers in the box score, Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs continues to lead the team's wideouts in participation and production. Quarterback Jordan Love's MO is spreading the ball around, but Doubs leads his fellow WRs in yards (96) and targets (nine). Moreover, he holds the edge in snaps, […]

Bhayshul Tuten Boasts Increased Value

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten assumed the team's RB2 role entirely in their 31-27 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday. After ex-teammate Tank Bigsby was traded to Philadelphia following Week 1, Tuten figured to operate as Travis Etienne Jr.'s primary backup. LeQuint Allen Jr. still worked in some (11 snaps), but did so […]

Jordan Mims Added to Titans' Active Roster

According to the team, the Tennessee Titans have elevated running back Jordan Mims to their active roster ahead of Sunday's game against the visiting Los Angeles Rams. With teammate Kalel Mullings (ankle) doubtful for Week 2 with an ankle injury, the 26-year-old will step in and suit up for the first time this season. In […]

Luke Goedeke Questionable for MNF

Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive lineman Luke Goedeke (foot) has garnered a questionable tag heading into their Monday night road matchup with the Houston Texans. Goedeke was out there for all of Tampa Bay's snaps in last weekend's win over the Falcons, but apparently picked up a foot injury in the process. After back-to-back DNPs to […]

Jackson Powers-Johnson Ruled Out With Concussion

Las Vegas Raiders offensive lineman Jackson Powers-Johnson (concussion) is officially ruled out for Monday night's home matchup with the Los Angeles Chargers. The former second-round pick started the week on Thursday as a full participant, but popped up on Las Vegas' practice report on Friday and closed out the week with two DNPs. It's unclear […]

Jordan Fuller Lands on Injured Reserve

The Atlanta Falcons have placed defensive back Jordan Fuller (knee) on Injured Reserve. Fuller picked up a knee injury in last weekend's loss to the Buccaneers, forcing Atlanta to rule him out for their Week 2 outing with the hosting Minnesota Vikings. Now, he'll miss at least the next four games. It's unfortunate news for […]

Nick Folk a Back-End Week 2 Option

New York Jets placekicker Nick Folk is one of the riskier options this week for his home matchup with the Buffalo Bills. The 40-year-old was a perfect 2-for-2 on field goal tries last weekend - including a 51-yarder - and knocked through both of his extra-point attempts - providing decent fantasy value in the loss. […]

Jets D/ST Gets Unfavorable Week 2 Draw

The New York Jets defense/special teams gets an unideal matchup in Week 2 when they host the visiting Buffalo Bills at MetLife Stadium. Expectations were high for New York's defensive unit heading into Week 1, but ex-Jet Aaron Rodgers erupted for a four-touchdown performance as the Steelers edged out a 34-32 win. Things won't be […]

Isaiah Davis a Distant Third in Jets' Ground Attack

New York Jets running back Isaiah Davis won't be on the fantasy radar this weekend when his team takes on the visiting Buffalo Bills. As expected, Davis operated as New York's third option in their ground attack in Week 1. However, the touch split was more drastic than initially anticipated. Incumbent starter Breece Hall carried […]

Tyler Johnson Due for Increased Work?

New York Jets wide receiver Tyler Johnson is slated to command an elevated workload in this Sunday's home matchup with the Buffalo Bills. Johnson - like many of New York's receiving options - picked up minimal work in last weekend's loss to the Steelers. He pulled in both looks for 31 yards, but was a […]

Braelon Allen's Ceiling Capped as No. 2 Backfield Option

New York Jets running back Braelon Allen projects again to play second fiddle in the team's backfield this Sunday when they take on the Buffalo Bills at home. The 21-year-old was able to punch in a rushing score last weekend in their loss to the Steelers, but was the clear-cut second option behind running mate […]

Garrett Wilson Set for Busy Afternoon Against Bills

Fantasy managers can expect New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson to garner another huge workload in Week 2's meeting with the visiting Buffalo Bills. The Ohio State product displayed excellent chemistry with his quarterback, Justin Fields, during their Week 1 loss to the Steelers. Wilson was the only Jets' pass-catcher to command more than […]

Breece Hall Back in RB1 Territory

New York Jets running back Breece Hall will look to build off his strong start this Sunday when his team hosts their division rival, the Buffalo Bills, at MetLife Stadium. The Jets' offense was flying high in Week 1 despite ultimately losing out in a shootout to former teammate Aaron Rodgers. Hall saw new quarterback […]

Michael Mayer Could See Increased Role Vs. Chargers

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Michael Mayer may be due for an elevated workload this Monday night when he faces off against the Los Angeles Chargers. Mayer saw an increased snapshare in Week 1's win over the New England Patriots when teammate Brock Bowers (knee) picked up a knee injury. Bowers was tagged with a […]

Daniel Jones Gets Imposing Denver D in Week 2

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones will get a much more difficult test in Week 2 when his team lines up with the visiting Denver Broncos. Jones was remarkable in his first start with the Colts, racking up 298 total yards and scoring three combined touchdowns -- a feat he'd accomplished just once in ten tries […]

Harold Fannin Jr. an Ascending Week 2 Asset

Cleveland Browns tight end Harold Fannin Jr. will get a chance to build on his rapport with quarterback Joe Flacco in Week 2 when his team squares off with the hosting Baltimore Ravens. Fannin Jr. was surprisingly involved in his NFL debut, leading all Cleveland pass-catchers with nine targets. While the Browns airing it out […]

Kenneth Gainwell Remains a Low-End Handcuff

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Kenneth Gainwell will look to make more of an impact in Week 2 when his team takes on the Seattle Seahawks at home. With rookie rusher Kaleb Johnson toting the rock just once in his NFL debut last weekend, Gainwell operated as the team's clear-cut No. 2 backfield option. The former […]

Calvin Austin III to Operate as No. 2 Option Again

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Calvin Austin III will line up against the visiting Seattle Seahawks this Sunday in Week 2. The University of Memphis product will look to build off of his opening weekend performance against a Seahawks defense that yielded the seventh-most passing yards in Week 1. Austin III is an elite deep threat, […]

George Pickens Running as Cowboys' Clear WR2

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens participated in 92% (56) of the team's snaps during their loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 1, the exact figure as star teammate CeeDee Lamb. The fourth-year pro didn't garner the same lofty target total Lamb drew (13), placing third on the team behind tight end Jake Ferguson, […]

Ricky Pearsall Slated for Massive Workload in Week 2

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall is set to see an elevated workload in Sunday's meeting with the New Orleans Saints due to a myriad of injuries his team has faced. The 49ers won their opening matchup against the Seattle Seahawks, but it didn't come without some collateral damage. Tight end George Kittle (hamstring) […]

Javonte Williams Comfortably Paces Cowboys' Backfield in Snaps

Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams was far and away his team's No. 1 option out of the backfield during their Week 1 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. It was unclear exactly how Dallas' running back touch distribution would shake out leading up to the campaign, but Williams was the unquestioned RB1 in the season […]

Chris Godwin to Be Limited in His Return Thursday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (ankle) will return to the practice field for the first time on Thursday in a limited fashion. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported the news. Godwin is still working back from a dislocated ankle he sustained in late October of last season, aiming for a return in Week 5 […]
