Blake Bortles Has Chance To Shine Against Titans

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles struggled some in his team's Week 1 victory over the Giants, but in Week 2 Bortles found his stride, passing for 377 yards, four touchdowns, and an interception. This week, he gets a home matchup against the Titans, who allowed 310 passing yards and 44 rushing yards to Texans quarterback […]

Will Fuller In Tough Position In Week 3

Houston Texans wide receiver Will Fuller returned from a hamstring injury in Week 2 and put up a strong outing, finishing with eight catches for 113 yards and a touchdown. He should find life a little tougher against the New York Giants in Week 3, though, as their defense has yet to allow a wide […]

DeAndre Hopkins Remains Must-Start Against Giants

Houston Texans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins has a permanent place in fantasy lineups at this point, even in a potentially difficult matchup against the New York Giants. While the Giants have allowed just 191 yards and no scores to the entire wide receiver position through two weeks, Hopkins showed in 2017 that he's a matchup-proof […]

Lamar Miller Could Find Holes In Giants Defense

Houston Texans running back Lamar Miller has been kept out of the end zone so far in 2018, but he's also averaging his highest yards per carry since coming to Houston heading into a favorable matchup with the New York Giants. This could be the week that Miller breaks through. His 83 yards per game […]

Deshaun Watson Has Tough Matchup Against Giants

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson hasn't lit the world on fire in his first two starts of the 2018 NFL season, tossing three touchdowns and a pair of interceptions while seeing his yards per attempt drop by 0.9 from his rookie year. He'll have a tough test on Sunday when Houston plays the Giants, who […]

DeAndre Hopkins Dealing With Hamstring Issue

Houston Texans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins had already been limited in practice all week while dealing with thumb and ankle issues, but Thursday's injury report added a new ailment for Houston's star wideout, who was listed as having a hamstring injury as well. With the new injury designation coming so late in the week, Hopkins's […]

Donte Moncrief Leads Team In Targets In Week 2

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Donte Moncrief finished Week 1 with just one catch on five targets, but quarterback Blake Bortles looked his way more often in the team's Week 2 victory over the New England Patriots. Moncrief caught four of his team-high nine targets, finishing with 34 yards and a touchdown. That Moncrief has now […]

Austin Seferian-Jenkins Finds End Zone

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins caught three passes for 23 yards and a touchdown in his team's Week 2 win over New England. Seferian-Jenkins, who also had three catches in Week 1, doesn't appear to a major threat in Jacksonville's passing game from a yardage perspective, but he does give the team a big […]

Dede Westbrook Catches Touchdown Against Patriots

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dede Westbrook caught four passes for 83 yards and a touchdown in Jacksonville's Week 2 victory over the New England Patriots. Westbrook's 61-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter helped the Jaguars ice the game and showed off his ability to gain yards after the catch. The bad news from this outing? […]

Keelan Cole A Highlight In Week 2 Victory

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Keelan Cole made plenty of highlight reels after a one-handed catch against the Patriots, but that wasn't the only good moment from the second-year receiver. Cole caught seven passes for 116 yards and a touchdown in the victory, establishing himself as Jacksonville's most dangerous receiver. He'll look to deliver similar results […]

Corey Grant Contributes As Receiver In Week 2

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Corey Grant was a non-factor in Week 1, but with starting running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) missing Week 2's meeting with New England, the Jaguars turned to Grant to help move the ball. Grant carried the ball four times for 13 yards, but his main contribution was in the receiving game, […]

T.J. Yeldon Leads Jaguars In Rushing In Week 2

Jacksonville Jaguars running back T.J. Yeldon was pressed into action in Week 2 after starting running back Leonard Fournette was ruled out before the game with a hamstring issue. Yeldon responded with 58 rushing yards on 10 attempts, as well as 13 receiving yards on two catches. It wasn't a great performance from Yeldon, but […]

Blake Bortles Has Strong Game Against Patriots

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles threw for 377 yards on 29-for-45 passing in Sunday's win over the New England Patriots. With running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) out, Bortles took to the air, tossing four touchdowns and an interception while also rushing six times for 35 yards. It was an impressive outing for Bortles, who gets […]

Texans Barely Use Tight Ends In Week 2

If fantasy owners were hoping to see one of Houston's three tight ends emerge as a potential fantasy sleeper, they'll need to keep waiting as the tight end usage in Week 2 didn't suggest that any player is distinguishing himself from the pack. Jordan Akins caught both of his targets for 21 yards, Ryan Griffin […]

Bruce Ellington Targeted Just Three Times

Houston Texans wide receiver Bruce Ellington hauled in all three of his targets for 45 yards in Houston's Week 2 loss to Tennessee, but Will Fuller's return from a hamstring injury that held him out of the season opener caused a drop in Ellington's usage. It's becoming clear that the Deshaun Watson-led Texans offense can't […]

DeAndre Hopkins Impressive Against Titans

Houston Texans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins caught six of his 11 targets in Sunday's loss to the Titans, finishing with 110 yards and a touchdown. With fellow wide receiver Will Fuller back in the lineup after missing Week 1 with a hamstring injury, Houston's passing game opened up, allowing Hopkins to put up numbers that […]

Will Fuller Impressive In Return

Houston Texans wide receiver Will Fuller missed the team's Week 1 loss while dealing with hamstring issues and was questionable up until game day this week, but Fuller shrugged off any concerns about his health on Sunday, catching eight passes for 113 yards and a touchdown. It was Fuller's first trip to the end zone […]

Alfred Blue Continues To See Carries

Houston Texans running back Alfred Blue saw one-third of Houston's running back carries in Sunday's loss to the Titans, finishing with 36 yards on seven carries. He was not targeted in the passing game. This comes a week after Blue rushed five times against New England for 36 yards and a touchdown. With D'Onta Foreman […]

Lamar Miller Solid In Week 2

Houston Texans running back Lamar Miller didn't have the flashiest day in Houston's Week 2 loss to the Titans, but he did gain 68 rushing yards on 14 carries to go along with two yards on two receptions. While it wasn't Miller's best football, he still averaged 4.9 yards per carry and showed that he […]

Deshaun Watson Has Solid Fantasy Day Against Titans

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson struggled at times in Sunday's loss to the Titans, but he managed to salvage a good fantasy day. Watson was 22-for-32 throwing the ball for 310 yards, two touchdowns, and an interception. Watson also added 44 rushing yards on five carries. Through two games, Watson hasn't looked like the electric […]

Leonard Fournette Unlikely To Play Against Patriots

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) continues to look unlikely to play in Sunday's meeting with the New England Patriots. Fournette will test his hamstring one more time before the game, but after feeling tightness in it all week during workouts, any discomfort will lead to Fournette sitting out. Fantasy owners should look elsewhere […]

Week 2 Busts - Overvalued Players to Avoid In Fantasy Football

The first week of the NFL season is in the books! We learned all kinds of cool things last weekend, including the fact that Ryan Fitzpatrick is the greatest quarterback of all-time, that Matthew Stafford might as well change his last name to Peterman, and that having Alvin Kamara, James Conner, and Tyreek Hill all […]

Browns Will Release Josh Gordon Monday

The Cleveland Browns will release wide receiver Josh Gordon on Monday after six tumultuous years with the team. Gordon, who didn't play in 2015 or 2016 while dealing with substance abuse issues, caught a 17-yard touchdown in Cleveland's season-opener, but had already been ruled out for Week 2 with a hamstring issue. While Gordon's future […]

Will Fuller Expected To Play In Week 2

Houston Texans head coach Bill O'Brien is confident that wide receiver Will Fuller will return for Sunday's meeting with the Tennessee Titans. A hamstring injury kept Fuller out of Houston's Week 1 loss to the Patriots and the Texans passing game suffered without him, with quarterback Deshaun Watson passing for just 176 yards. Fuller has […]

Russell Westbrook Has Knee Surgery

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Russell Westbrook has had arthroscopic surgery on his right knee and could miss the start of the NBA's regular season. The team plans to re-evaluate Westbrook's rehab progress in four weeks, putting his chances at playing in the team's season-opening meet with Golden State in doubt. The injury shouldn't have a […]

Leonard Fournette Not Spotted At Practice

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) was not seen at practice on Friday morning, according to Daniel Popper of The Athletic. Though there have been indications that Fournette is likely to suit up against New England on Sunday, his absence at practice should make fantasy owners uneasy about his status. Even if Fournette does […]

Austin Seferian-Jenkins A Risky Week 2 Play

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins had a great matchup in Week 1 against the Giants, one of 2017's worst defenses against the tight end position, but he was only able to put up 25 yards on three catches. Expect Seferian-Jenkins to remain an inconsistent fantasy option all season long. While this could be worth […]

Dede Westbrook Has PPR Upside In Week 2

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dede Westbrook caught five of his six targets for 51 yards in Week 1's victory over the New York Giants. He'll look to continue that usage against the Patriots in Week 2. Westbrook was the most targeted receiver for Jacksonville against the Giants and while he wasn't able to match teammate […]

Keelan Cole Is A Risky Play In Week 2

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Keelan Cole led the team in receiving yards against the Giants in Week 1 with 54 of them on three catches, but he finished fifth on the team in targets and could face similar struggles against New England in Week 2. The Jacksonville passing game -- and the receiver situation in […]

Blake Bortles Has Tough Matchup Against Patriots

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles will look to improve on an inconsistent Week 1 performance in his Week 2 meeting with the New England Patriots, but it could be a bit of an uphill battle for Bortles. The Patriots defense held Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson to just 176 yards last week; with a weaker supporting […]
