Eddy Pineiro Chose 49ers Over Falcons

San Francisco 49ers kicker Eddy Pineiro revealed that he had offers from at least two teams before signing with the Niners this past week. Pineiro acknowledged that he chose the 49ers over an offer from the Atlanta Falcons. While the veteran kicker did not explain his reasoning for the decision, it's likely because he was […]

Ryan Flournoy Added to 53-Man Roster for Week 2

The Dallas Cowboys have elevated wide receiver Ryan Flournoy from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Sunday's Week 2 contest against the New York Giants. The 2024 sixth-round pick was active for the season opener, too, but he didn't register a target. As a rookie last year, the Southeast Missouri State product […]

Colby Parkinson Doubtful to Play in Week 2

Los Angeles Rams tight end Colby Parkinson (shoulder) is listed as doubtful to play in Week 2 against the Tennessee Titans. He missed all three practices this week while recovering from an AC joint sprain that he suffered last Sunday against the Houston Texans. Parkinson was actually able to finish last week's game after receiving […]

Tyler Higbee Headed for Minimal Production Despite Majority Snap Share?

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee is headed for another sizable snap share in Week 2 against the Tennessee Titans, but his target share and overall productivity are far less certain. Higbee played 58 percent of the offensive snaps last week, and Los Angeles routinely rolled out two-tight end sets. However, he was not […]

Tristan Wirfs Ruled Out for Week 2

Tampa Bay Buccaneers left tackle Tristan Wirfs (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 2 game against the Houston Texans. Wirfs underwent knee surgery during the offseason. He is inching closer toward returning, as evidenced by the Buccaneers keeping him on their initial 53-man roster, but today's news confirms he's not quite ready to […]

Davante Adams Ranks in WR2 Range Given His Matchup

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams should rank as a mid-to-low WR2 in fantasy football this week against the Tennessee Titans. While Adams has WR1 upside every week, he might not reach his full potential this week given his matchup with Tennessee. With Los Angeles heavily favored to win, the Rams could choose to […]

Puka Nacua Ranks as WR2 Ahead with Passing Volume Uncertain

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua should rank as a mid-to-high WR2 in fantasy football this week against the Tennessee Titans. While Nacua has WR1 upside every week, he might not reach his full potential this week given his matchup with Tennessee. First of all, Los Angeles is heavily favored to win, which means […]

Tutu Atwell at Risk of Losing More Snaps?

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Tutu Atwell could see his snap count continue to decline in Week 2 against the Tennessee Titans. During last week's season opener, Atwell, who was originally believed to be the team's No. 3 receiver, finished fourth among the position group in snap share (42 percent). He caught just one pass […]

Jordan Whittington Could Maintain Sizable Role in Week 2

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Jordan Whittington could remain involved in the team's offensive attack this Sunday against the Tennessee Titans. Whittington's involvement in the season opener last Sunday was a pleasant surprise as he played 50 percent of the snaps and was on the field more than teammate Tutu Atwell. Whittington rushed the ball […]

Blake Corum Set to Take Back Seat Again in Week 2

Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum should remain an afterthought in the team's offensive attack against the Tennessee Titans in Week 2. While Corum is a solid handcuff, he lacks fantasy appeal as long as Kyren Williams. Just last week, he played only 17 percent of the offensive snaps, finishing with one rushing attempt […]

Kyren Williams Gets Favorable Game Script for Week 2

Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams remains a strong fantasy option for Week 2 against the Tennessee Titans. Williams' nose for the end zone was on display once again last week as he scored a touchdown against the Houston Texans, and he has a strong chance to score this Sunday in a very favorable […]

Matthew Stafford Could Underwhelm in Week 2

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford is not a top fantasy option for Week 2 against the Tennessee Titans. Instead, he ranks as a low-end QB2. First of all, the Titans' passing defense showed major strides in Week 1, intercepting Bo Nix twice. This was the lone bright spot for a Tennessee team that struggled […]

Joshua Karty Not a Flashy Option Against Tennessee

Los Angeles Rams kicker Joshua Karty is not a top fantasy option for Week 2 against the Tennessee Titans. Karty has been tough to trust on a week-by-week basis in his young career, leaving fantasy managers looking elsewhere for a high-ceiling option at the kicker position. Karty only attempted two kicks -- both successful extra […]

Rams Defense Could Feast Against Rookie QB in Week 2

The Los Angeles Rams defense/special teams is a top fantasy option for Week 2 against the Tennessee Titans. We've already seen Tennessee face plenty of growing pains, as they were embarrassed on the road last week against the Denver Broncos. In that contest, the Titans achieved just seven first downs, and rookie quarterback Cameron Ward […]

Patriots Defense a Strong Streaming Option for Week 2

The New England Patriots defense/special teams is certainly on the fantasy radar for Week 2 against the Miami Dolphins. Miami was embarrassed by the Indianapolis Colts last weekend as Tua Tagovailoa threw two interceptions and also lost a fumble. While Tagovailoa is historically better playing at home, where he'll be Sunday against New England, last […]

Andy Borregales Off Fantasy Radar Amid Kicking Concerns

New England Patriots kicker Andy Borregales remains off the fantasy radar after missing a kick in his NFL debut last weekend. While this week's matchup against the Miami Dolphins should present plenty of scoring opportunities, Borregales' miss from 40 yards out last week indicates that nothing is a sure thing when he swings his leg […]

Austin Hooper Not a Reliable Fantasy Option for Week 2

New England Patriots tight end Austin Hooper can be left on waivers in most fantasy leagues ahead of his Week 2 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. New England does operate out of two-tight end sets often, which allowed Hooper to have plenty of fantasy-relevant showings in 2024. However, we have not seen him demonstrate as […]

DeMario Douglas Tough to Trust Despite High Target Share Last Week

New England Patriots wide receiver DeMario Douglas is not a reliable option in most fantasy football leagues against the Miami Dolphins this week. While Douglas did command seven targets and score a touchdown in Week 1, he caught just two passes and finished the game with negative yardage. The receiver has never been a major […]

Stefon Diggs on Fantasy Radar for Week 2

New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs continues to have some fantasy appeal for Week 2 against the Miami Dolphins. Diggs was out-snapped and out-produced by Kayshon Boutte, but the veteran still turned in a solid showing of his own with seven targets, six catches, and 57 yards. We can expect similar usage and productivity […]

Kayshon Boutte Storms into Flex Range for Week 2 Against Miami

New England Patriots wide receiver Kayshon Boutte is looking to build off a very strong season opener as he prepares to take on the Miami Dolphins in Week 2. Boutte emerged as Drake Maye's favorite and most dependable target last weekend, catching six of the eight passes thrown his way for 103 yards. He led […]

Rhamondre Stevenson Only an Option in Deeper Leagues as Role Shrinks

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson is merely a volume-based FLEX play in deeper fantasy leagues ahead of Week 2 against the Miami Dolphins. Stevenson handled just seven carries and three targets in Week 1, producing just 27 scrimmage yards. He is expected to have a decreased role this week as the Patriots continue […]

Drake Maye Has Big Upside Against Struggling Defense

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye has top-12 fantasy upside heading into Sunday's Week 2 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. Maye was solid with 287 passing yards, one touchdown, and one interception in the season opener last week, but he has the potential to take a bigger leap this weekend given the Dolphins' struggling defense. […]

Lack of Joe Mixon Injury Updates Sparking Concern for Fantasy Managers?

A lack of injury updates on Houston Texans running back Joe Mixon (ankle, foot) is creating a sense of concern and uncertainty for fantasy managers. The Texans have provided very few updates on Mixon since placing him on the non-football injury list, and general manager Nick Caserio was non-committal on the running back playing this […]

Chris Rodriguez Jr. Headed For Significant Role After Austin Ekeler Injury?

Washington Commanders running back Chris Rodriguez Jr. could handle a larger workload after the team lost Austin Ekeler to a suspected torn Achilles on Thursday. Rodriguez has been a healthy scratch through the first two weeks of the season, but he'll likely be active going forward as the Commanders' No. 3 running back behind Jacory […]

Jayden Reed Fractures Collarbone, Headed for Injured Reserve

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (shoulder) fractured his collarbone during Thursday's win over the Washington Commanders, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. He will be placed on injured reserve but is expected to return later this season. This is a crushing blow for the Packers, as Reed had been their best receiver […]

Commanders Fear Austin Ekeler Tore his Achilles

The Washington Commanders fear that running back Austin Ekeler tore his Achilles during Thursday's loss to the Green Bay Packers, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. He will undergo an MRI. Ekeler suffered the injury on a non-contact play late in the fourth quarter. If the diagnosis is confirmed, the veteran running back will be […]

Jeremy McNichols Could See Increased Usage After Austin Ekeler Injury

Washington Commanders running back Jeremy McNichols could be headed for an increased workload after teammate Austin Ekeler suffered a serious Achilles injury on Thursday night. Ekeler suffered the injury late in the fourth quarter and was quickly ruled out, indicating that the severity is serious. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport echoed these concerns postgame, telling the […]

Fantasy Football Injury Reports For NFL RBs: Week 2 Updates for Jonathan Taylor, Austin Ekeler, more

Below is our fantasy football injuries report for running backs in Week 2, as of September 10. The injury statuses for various NFL running backs are up in the air for Week 2, including Jonathan Taylor, Austin Ekeler, Will Shipley, and Kene Nwangwu. As the fantasy football season gets underway, every decision, transaction, and lineup […]

Bhayshul Tuten Headed for Larger Role Despite Quiet Week 1

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten is expected to handle increased opportunities going forward after the team traded Tank Bigsby to the Philadelphia Eagles. Tuten only rushed three times for 11 yards in Week 1, but he should earn more carries as he goes from No. 3 to No. 2 on the depth chart. The […]

Packers Sign Pierre Strong Jr. to Practice Squad

The Green Bay Packers have signed running back Pierre Strong Jr. to their practice squad. The 26-year-old spent last season with the Cleveland Browns, totaling 108 rushing yards and 104 receiving yards. He also got involved on special teams, returning 11 kicks in 2024. Strong remained with the Browns organization until the end of August, […]
