Treylon Burks A Deep-League Option In Week 3

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Treylon Burks has just seven targets through two games, catching five of them for 94 yards.

Until his targets see a dramatic uptick, he's tough […]

DeAndre Hopkins Projected For Healthy Target Share Against Browns

Tennessee Titans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins saw just five targets in Week 2 after drawing 13 targets in Week 1.

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill had a disastrous performance in Week 1, but bounced back in Week 2 and delivered a multi-touchdown game.

Only two weeks of the 2023 NFL season are complete, meaning the waiver wire still has some value ahead of next week's matchups. This won't last long in deep leagues, so picking up the right streamer or lotto-ticket bench stash is important early in the season. The top waiver wire adds are often obvious for […]

Justin Fields Blames Coaching For Struggles?

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields came into the 2023 season as a breakout candidate, but his career passing struggles have continued through his first two games.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (concussion) returned to practice on Wednesday after missing all of practice and the Week 2 game against the Buffalo Bills last week.

Kyle Pitts Draws Favorable Week 3 Matchup

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts has continued to be disappointing in fantasy football, catching just four passes for 49 yards thus far in 2023.

Drake London Has High Ceiling, Low Floor Against Lions

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London caught zero passes in Week 1, then caught six of his seven targets for 67 yards and a touchdown in the win over the Green Bay Packers in Week 2.

Tyler Allgeier Remains Mid-Level Flex Option

Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier was the RB4 overall in standard scoring formats in Week 1 but had a disappointing Week 2 effort with 16 carries for 48 yards.
