Rhamondre Stevenson Held To Just Six Carries In Week 3

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson rushed just six times for 23 yards during Thursday's loss to the New York Jets. The 26-year-old has logged at least 21 carries and one touchdown in each of the first two games this season, so his reduced opportunities and production in Week 3 was certainly a surprise. […]

Demario Douglas Targeted Nine Times Thursday

New England Patriots wide receiver Demario Douglas turned nine targets into seven catches for 69 yards against the New York Jets on Thursday night. Douglas had been off to a quiet start this season, finishing Week 2 with zero targets and the third-most snaps among wide receivers on the team. However, he got more reps […]

Drake Maye Enters In Week 3

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye came off the bench to make his NFL debut during the fourth quarter of Thursday's game against the New York Jets. He replaced Jacoby Brissett for the final drive of the game. Brissett had not fared very well behind the Patriots' depleted offensive line, and while Maye was also […]

Jacoby Brissett Sacked Five Times Before Exiting Thursday

New England Patriots quarterback Jacoby Brissett completed 12 of 18 pass attempts for 98 yards, zero touchdowns, and zero turnovers against the New York Jets in Week 3. He also took five sacks, which is a clear indication that New England has a porous offensive line. The unit has specifically been bad in pass protection, […]

Jerod Mayo Not Ready To Name Week 4 Starting QB

New England Patriots head coach Jerod Mayo was non-committal when asked if he would consider a quarterback change heading into Week 4 of the 2024 season. "I don't know," Mayo told the media after Thursday's loss to the New York Jets. "We talk about it every single week: you're competing for a job. We'll get […]

Morgan Moses To Undergo MRI On Friday

New York Jets right tackle Morgan Moses (knee) exited Thursday's game against the New England Patriots and was eventually downgraded to out. The 33-year-old has been a beacon of health throughout his career, missing just three games over the last nine-plus seasons. He'll undergo an MRI on Friday to determine the severity of his injury […]

Jeff Wilson Jr. Limited In Practice Wednesday

Miami Dolphins running back Jeff Wilson Jr. (oblique) was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday. Miami is dealing with injuries throughout its offense, including Wilson and fellow running back Raheem Mostert (chest). When this whole backfield is healthy, Wilson operates as the No. 3 option but still earns a handful of touches. With that […]

Noah Fant Limited By Toe Injury Wednesday

Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (toe) was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday. Fant played a season-high 81 percent of snaps last Sunday but seems to have come out of Week 2 with a toe issue. Even if it's minor, it will be something worth monitoring as the week progresses and the Seahawks […]

Tyler Lockett Limited In Practice Wednesday

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (thigh) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice. The bad news is that Lockett is dealing with an injury or ailment. The good news is that it's common for veteran players to miss practice on Wednesday as they heal a minor injury and rest. Plus, there's still two more […]

Kenneth Walker III Remains Sidelined For Wednesday's Practice

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (oblique) did not practice on Wednesday. As the Seahawks prepare for Week 3 versus the Miami Dolphins, they're at risk of being without their star running back. The 23-year-old ran free for 103 yards and a touchdown during the Seahawks' season opener, but he emerged from Week 1 […]

DK Metcalf Absent As Week 3 Preparation Begins

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (hand) did not participate in practice on Wednesday. The star pass-catcher bounced back from a quiet season opener by catching 10 passes for 129 yards and one touchdown last Sunday. Now, as the Seahawks begin preparation for Week 3 versus the Miami Dolphins, Metcalf is nursing an injury. As […]

Joey Slye A Solid Streamer For Week 3

New England Patriots kicker Joey Slye has positioned himself as a solid fantasy football waiver wire addition for Week 3. When the Patriots face the New York Jets on Thursday night, Slye is a candidate to exceed his project point total. For starters, the Patriots offense has afforded Slye several opportunities to kick for points […]

Patriots Defense Avoidable In Most Leagues Thursday

The New England Patriots defense can be left on waivers in most leagues heading into Week 3 against the New York Jets. This unit has been respectable over the first two weeks of the season, but a couple of factors should lead fantasy managers in a different direction this week. First, the Patriots' offense is […]

Antonio Gibson Sneaks Onto Fantasy Radar In Week 3

New England Patriots running back Antonio Gibson has emerged as an intriguing fantasy option ahead of his Week 3 clash against the New York Jets. Gibson was particularly productive last Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks, rushing for 96 yards on 11 carries. Typically viewed as a pass-catcher out of the backfield, Gibson has been almost […]

Ja'Lynn Polk Merely A Deep Dart Throw In Week 3

New England Patriots wide receiver Ja'Lynn Polk managed to out-snap Demario Douglas last Sunday, but the rookie still lacks reliability heading into Week 3 against the New York Jets. He only got onto the fantasy radar last week because of a touchdown. If not for finding the end zone, he would have had just two […]

Demario Douglas Belongs On Benches Thursday

New England Patriots wide receiver Demario Douglas has been a massive disappointment this fantasy football season and should be avoided in fantasy leagues until further notice. That includes this week when the Patriots play the New York Jets on Thursday Night Football. Douglas has just two catches this year, and he was out-snapped by both […]

Hunter Henry Worth Starting On Thursday Night

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry's strong Week 2 showing has thrust him back into fantasy consideration for Thursday Night Football against the New York Jets. After a quiet season opener, he bounced back with one of the best games of his career last week, catching eight of 12 targets for 109 yards. He […]

Rhamondre Stevenson Remains Volume-Driven RB2

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson remains an intriguing fantasy football option for Week 3 versus the New York Jets given his usage and efficiency within the team's offense. He has one touchdown in each of his first two games this year, and he's also averaging a whopping 27 opportunities per contest. With 4.37 […]

Jacoby Brissett Off Fantasy Radar For TNF

New England Patriots quarterback Jacoby Brissett can be avoided in most fantasy leagues ahead of Week 3 versus the New York Jets. Brissett has been solid so far, playing turnover-free football while leading the Patriots to a 1-1 record. However, he has limited rushing upside and the Patriots simply don't pass enough to get Brissett's […]

Vikings Defense Dominant Again In Week 2 Win

The Minnesota Vikings' defense enjoyed a productive win over the San Francisco 49ers in Week 2. The unit finished Sunday's game with five sacks, nine tackles for loss, one interception, and one fumble recovery. They also held a strong Niners offense to just 17 points. All in all, the Vikings have emerged as one of […]

Johnny Mundt Quiet In Week 2 Win

Minnesota Vikings tight end Johnny Mundt caught two of three targets for just 12 yards during Sunday's win over the San Francisco 49ers. Mundt has been operating as the Vikings' top tight end with T.J. Hockenson (knee) sidelined, but he has left a lot to be desired from a fantasy football perspective. With just four […]
