JuJu Smith-Schuster - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New England Patriots wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster should be benched in most fantasy leagues ahead of Sunday Night Football versus the Miami Dolphins. Originally signed to be New England's No. 1 receiver, Smith-Schuster was out-performed by Kendrick Bourne and Demario Douglas last week, and new reports indicate the former Steeler and Chief has slid down […]

Ezekiel Elliott - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New England Patriots running back Ezekiel Elliott will continue to operate behind Rhamondre Stevenson on Sunday night versus Miami. With a fairly restricted workload, his fantasy production will likely depend on finding the end zone. While signed to take New England's short-yardage carries, Elliott did lose a fumble last week, which could put him in […]

Rhamondre Stevenson - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson might lose some rushing opportunities to Ezekiel Elliott versus Miami on Sunday night, but he'll still be called upon for a significant role in the passing attack. Stevenson hauled in all six of his targets last week and has been the Patriots' most reliable pass-catcher at times over […]

Mac Jones - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones is a viable, mid-range QB2 in fantasy football ahead of this week's game versus the Miami Dolphins. Jones found success while facing a heavy workload last Sunday, completing 35 of 54 passes for 316 yards, three touchdowns, and one interception. He'll likely approach 50 attempts again this week as […]

Brian Kalmer Hitting The Ball Exceptionally Well

Chicago Cubs first base prospect Brian Kalmer was an 18th-round pick just two months ago and has looked absolutely phenomenal in his limited pro action. Selected out of Gonzaga as a third baseman, Kalmer has primarily played first so far, but the Cubs have plenty of time to experiment with his defensive profile. Offensively, there's […]

Spencer Schwellenbach Tosses Six Perfect Frames

Atlanta Braves minor leaguer Spencer Schwellenbach has emerged as one of the club's top pitching prospects. Although the start of his pro career was delayed due to Tommy John surgery, he came out of his recovery with his fastball peaking at an impressive 98 mph. He consistently demonstrates impressive control and has developed both his […]

Samuel Basallo Hits Three Homers In Big Week

Baltimore Orioles 19-year-old catcher Samuel Basallo has emerged as an impressive prospect with incredible bat speed and power. The Dominican Republic native is definitely a bat-first minor leaguer, and the Orioles have to be impressed by the decrease in his K/BB rate this season. Defensively, his arm strength and pop time are a little underwhelming. […]

Adam Macko Dominant When Healthy

Toronto Blue Jays pitching prospect Adam Macko is an impressive starter who has used 2023 to show what he can do when healthy, given the fact that he made just 17 outings over the two seasons prior. Born in Slovakia, the southpaw went to high school in Alberta before the Mariners made him their seventh-round […]

Luis Verdugo Making Strides Offensively

Chicago Cubs third base prospect Luis Verdugo signed with the organization out of Mexico in 2017. Widely regarded as a talented defender, the 22-year-old has solidified himself as a long-term third baseman with impressive glovework, especially on challenging hops at the hot corner. On offense, there are real doubts about his bat and discipline, though […]

The opening Sunday of the 2023 NFL season has come and gone. Hopefully, you woke up on Monday morning feeling very good about how your matchup went. However, this week's slate of games was certainly stress-inducing for many fantasy football managers. Part of that stress was caused by a group of players who drastically underachieved […]

Jason Sanders Productive Despite Missed Extra Point

Miami Dolphins kicker Jason Sanders was relatively productive on Sunday, going 3-for-3 on field goals and 3-for-4 on extra points. His longest kick came from 45 yards out. Sanders' performance benefitted from a shootout-style game between Miami and Los Angeles. He should be viewed as a fringe top-12 fantasy kicker as long as the Dolphins […]

Dolphins Defense Can't Slow Down Chargers Sunday

The Miami Dolphins' defense struggled to slow down Justin Herbert and the Los Angeles Chargers' offense in Week 1. While Miami won, they surrendered 34 points and failed to record a single turnover. The unit did, however, tally three sacks, including one each from Kader Kohou and Zach Sieler. Even with a game versus the […]

River Cracraft Finds End Zone Sunday

Miami Dolphins wide receiver River Cracraft hauled in three of his five targets for 33 yards and one touchdown against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 1. While not a steady contributor by any means, Cracraft has shown a knack for finding the end zone. Three of his last 12 catches have gone for touchdowns, […]

Braxton Berrios Logs Three Catches In Dolphins Debut

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Braxton Berrios hauled in three of his five targets for 42 receiving yards against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday afternoon. The versatile, athletic receiver is capable of making plays happen, but he isn't currently on the fantasy radar. Look elsewhere if you need to bolster the wide receiver position in […]

Durham Smythe Targeted Seven Times In Week 1

Miami Dolphins tight end Durham Smythe turned seven targets into three catches for 44 yards during Sunday's season opener versus the Los Angeles Chargers. Smythe wasn't expected to have a huge game, so his final contributions to the box score should be viewed as a great result as the Dolphins continue to evaluate their tight […]

Jaylen Waddle Catches Four Passes In Season Opener

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle hauled in four of five targets for 78 yards during Sunday's win over the Los Angeles Chargers. The performance doesn't nearly compare to teammate Tyreek Hill's 215 yards and two touchdowns, but Waddle was still solid enough to keep fantasy managers satisfied. As long as quarterback Tua Tagovailoa is […]

Tyreek Hill Explodes For 215 Yards, Two Touchdowns

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill had one of the best games of his career on Sunday, registering 11 receptions for 215 yards and two touchdowns. Tagovailoa loved looking Hill's direction downfield, and understandably so. The 29-year-old has emerged as one of the league's most talented and athletic wide receivers, giving him high-end WR1 status […]

Tua Tagovailoa Drops 466 Passing Yards In Week 1 Victory

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa was dominant on Sunday, completing 28 of 45 passes for a whopping 466 yards and three touchdowns. He also threw an interception and lost a fumble on a botched snap. Tagovailoa helped lead the Dolphins to victory, all while supporting a historic outing from Tyreek Hill (11 catches, 215 yards, […]

Raheem Mostert Salvages Week 1 Performance With Touchdown

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert rushed 10 times for 37 yards and one touchdown against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 1. He also caught two passes for an additional 13 yards through the air. While Mostert certainly wasn't a focal point in the offense, he salvaged his fantasy production by finding the end […]

J.K. Dobbins' Torn Achilles Confirmed

Baltimore Ravens running back J.K. Dobbins (ankle) officially tore his Achilles during Week 1, an MRI confirmed. Head coach John Harbaugh announced the unfortunate news postgame. Dobbins exited in the second half and was unable to return. This injury is season-ending, meaning Dobbins will have played in just eight games from 2021 through 2023. Gus […]

De'Von Achane Officially Inactive For Week 1

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane (shoulder) is officially inactive for Week 1 against the Los Angeles Chargers. While Achane was removed from the injury report on Friday, the rookie was not expected to have a major role in the season opener. As it turns out, he's inactive altogether. Raheem Mostert will operate as Miami's […]

Cameron Heyward Won't Return Sunday

Pittsburgh Steelers defensive lineman Cameron Heyward (groin) has been ruled out for the remainder of Week 1 versus the San Francisco 49ers. Heyward exited in the first half, returned, and then exited again before being ruled out. Isaiahh Loudermilk should see more snaps in his absence.

J.K. Dobbins Feared To Have Torn Achilles

Baltimore Ravens running back J.K. Dobbins (foot) is feared to have suffered a torn Achilles during Sunday's season opener against the Houston Texans. It's a crushing blow for the Ravens and their 24-year-old running back given the fact that he has missed 26 games over the last two seasons. Baltimore will proceed with Gus Edwards […]

Robert Tonyan Active For Week 1

Chicago Bears tight end Robert Tonyan (back) is officially active for Week 1 versus the Green Bay Packers. He had been listed as questionable but will ultimately suit up as Cole Kmet's backup. He can be left on fantasy football waivers.

Evan Hull Ruled Out With Knee Injury

Indianapolis Colts running back Evan Hull (knee) has been ruled out for the remainder of Week 1. The rookie exited the contest after recording just seven scrimmage yards on the first two touches of his career. The Colts are hurting at running back with Jonathan Taylor (ankle), Zack Moss (arm), and Hull all sidelined. The […]

Diontae Johnson Injures Hamstring, Won't Return Sunday

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson (hamstring) has been ruled out for the remainder of Week 1 versus the San Francisco 49ers. Pittsburgh hasn't been able to get much done on offense, and now they'll be without one of their top receivers for the rest of the contest. George Pickens and Pat Freiermuth should see […]

J.K. Dobbins Questionable To Return Sunday

Baltimore Ravens running back J.K. Dobbins (ankle) is questionable to return in Week 1 versus the Houston Texans. He exited in the second half after totaling 37 scrimmage yards and one touchdown. Gus Edwards and Justice Hill will handle more snaps out of the backfield until Dobbins is able to return.

Rhamondre Stevenson Active, DeVante Parker Inactive Sunday

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson (illness) is officially active for Week 1 versus the Philadelphia Eagles. He had been listed as questionable but was widely expected to play after recovering from a stomach bug. On the other hand, wide receiver DeVante Parker (knee) is inactive.
