Antonio Gibson A Solid RB2 In Week 2

Washington Commanders running back Antonio Gibson should be a strong play in Week 2 against the Detroit Lions. The 24-year-old had himself an impressive Week 1, as he combined for 130 total yards on the ground and through the air. Without rookie Brian Robinson in the lineup, Gibson has taken on a dual-threat workload that […]

Davante Adams Looks To Continue His Dominance In Week 2

After a dominant Las Vegas Raiders debut, wide receiver Davante Adams will look for similar success in a Week 2 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. Adams saw the most targets in the NFL in Week 1 with 17, which is something fantasy managers should get used to. Fantasy managers were eager to see how the […]

Jahan Dotson Could Build Off His Strong Debut

Washington Commanders rookie wide receiver Jahan Dotson will be looking to build upon his strong debut performance. In Week 1, the former Nittany Lion caught three of his five targets for 40 yards and two touchdowns. After shedding the "slow-start" trend that usually comes with rookie wide receivers, Dotson has come out of the gates […]

Terry McLaurin Should Be In For A Big Day In Week 2

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin should be in for a big day in Week 2. The fourth-year pro is coming off of a game where he had two receptions for 58 yards and a touchdown on four targets. However, most of that production came from his 49-yard touchdown grab in the fourth quarter. For […]

Curtis Samuel Could Continue Solid Production In Week 2

Washington Commanders wide receiver Curtis Samuel is in line to build on his strong Week 1 showing. After dealing with injuries in the 2021 season, the 26-year-old finally had a chance to show what he could provide for the Washington offense as he demonstrated shiftiness and an ability to create yards. The former Buckeye's usage […]

Eddy Pineiro Remains An Uninteresting Fantasy Option

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro was successful on his lone field goal attempt and all three of his extra-point tries in the team's Week 1 loss to the Cleveland Browns. Carolina will face the New York Giants in Week 2, and although the Giants' defense isn't one that fantasy managers need to avoid, Pineiro remains […]

Drake London A Potential Sleeper In Week 2

Atlanta Falcons rookie wide receiver Drake London had a solid Week 1 performance. The rookie receiver had seven targets, pulling in five for 74 yards. While he failed to find the end zone, the former USC star led the team in receiving yards, targets, and route participation. Furthermore, London was second on the team in […]

Cordarrelle Patterson – Week 2 Outlook For Fantasy Football

Atlanta Falcons running back Cordarrelle Patterson is coming off an excellent Week 1 performance. The veteran running back had 22 rushing attempts for 120 yards and a touchdown in the loss against the New Orleans Saints. After Damien Williams left the game with a rib injury, Patterson saw 91.3% of the running back rushing attempts […]

Marcus Mariota A Solid QB2 Option Against The Rams

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Marcus Mariota is coming off a strong performance in Week 1, completing 60.6% of his pass attempts for 215 yards. He also added 12 rushing attempts for 72 yards in the loss to the New Orleans Saints. While Mariota is coming off a 19.8 fantasy point performance, the former No. 2 overall […]

Panthers Defense - Week 2 Outlook For Fantasy Football

The Carolina Panthers defense/special teams appeared to be set up for success against the Jacoby Brissett-led Cleveland Browns last week but unfortunately did not come through for fantasy football. They have another enticing matchup in Week 2, however, against the New York Giants. Although the Giants' offense looked improved to start the season, turnover-prone quarterback […]

Ian Thomas - Week 2 Outlook For Fantasy Football

Carolina Panthers tight end Ian Thomas operated as the team's TE1 last week and will go on the road to face the New York Giants in Week 2. Thomas was only targeted three times in Week 1, but turned one of his two receptions into a 50-yard gain and was brought down just shy of […]

Robbie Anderson A Boom-Or-Bust Flex Play In Week 2

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Robbie Anderson was surprisingly the best fantasy option on the team in Week 1 and will look to continue his hot start in an away matchup against the New York Giants. Anderson's performance last week can mostly be attributed to one big play, a 75-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Baker Mayfield. […]

DJ Moore - Week 2 Outlook For Fantasy Football

Carolina Panthers wide receiver DJ Moore had a disappointing Week 1 and will look to get back on track on the road against the New York Giants in Week 2. There will surely be a handful of down weeks from Moore this season as the Panthers' offense led by Baker Mayfield is not expected to […]

Christian McCaffrey Should Bounce Back In Week 2

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey found the end zone in Week 1 but did not have the monstrous fantasy performance that we've come to expect from him when healthy. He has a great opportunity to get things going in Week 2 against the New York Giants, who allowed the seventh-most fantasy points to opposing […]

Baker Mayfield - Week 2 Outlook For Fantasy Football

Carolina Panthers quarterback Baker Mayfield will look to improve on his lackluster Week 1 performance in a Week 2 away bout with the New York Giants. Emotions surely had an impact on Mayfield in his Panthers debut as he played his former team, the Cleveland Browns, but he wasn't bad for fantasy. Perhaps he will […]

Texans Defense Week 2 Outlook For Fantasy Football

The Houston Texans defense faces a tough test in Week 2 as the team goes on the road to face the Denver Broncos. With Russell Wilson quarterbacking the Broncos and the Texans defense allowing 340 passing yards last week, there's not a lot of upside with this defense for fantasy purposes. There will be times […]

Ka'imi Fairbairn's Week 2 Outlook For Fantasy Football

Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn was perfect from the field in Week 1, making both of his extra points and both of his field goal attempts. Despite that, Fairbairn ranks fairly low when talking about kickers for Week 2, mainly because this Texans offense isn't good enough to put Fairbairn in position to make many […]

O.J. Howard's Week 2 Outlook For Fantasy Football

Houston Texans tight end O.J. Howard caught a pair of touchdowns last week against the Colts, but he was also only targeted on those two plays the entire game. Heading into Week 2 against the Broncos, Howard is an enticing fantasy option, but the lack of usage outside of those touchdowns last week is worrisome. […]

Nico Collins' Week 2 Outlook For Fantasy Football

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins was targeted three times in Week 1, catching two passes for 26 yards. His lack of usage makes him a risky fantasy option heading into Sunday's Week 2 meeting with the Denver Broncos. Brandin Cooks was the team's clear No. 1 receiver last week, while Collins and Chris Moore […]

Brandin Cooks' Week 2 Outlook For Fantasy Football

Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks appears to be the only consistent fantasy threat on the Texans roster heading into Week 2 against the Denver Broncos. Last week, Cooks was targeted 12 times, catching seven passes for 82 yards. No other wide receiver for the team saw more than three targets. Cooks is a volume-based […]

Dameon Pierce's Week 2 Outlook For Fantasy Football

Houston Texans rookie running back Dameon Pierce appears to be the team's No. 2 back heading into Week 2 and the team's meeting with the Denver Broncos. Pierce had 11 carries in Week 1, finishing with 33 yards. He was targeted once in the passing game, catching it for a six-yard gain. As long as […]

Rex Burkhead's Week 2 Outlook For Fantasy Football

Houston Texans running back Rex Burkhead appears to be the team's lead back heading into their Week 2 matchup with the Broncos. Burkhead had three more carries than Dameon Pierce last week, as well as seven more targets than the rookie. Burkhead could have some appeal in deep PPR leagues as a flex play, but […]

Davis Mills' Week 2 Outlook For Fantasy Football

Houston Texans quarterback Davis Mills has a tough matchup in Week 2 against the Denver Broncos, making him a tough player to trust in fantasy football. Last week, Mills attempted 37 passes but ended up with just 240 yards in an overtime tie with the Colts. The Broncos allowed just 177 passing yards last week, […]

Alvin Kamara Not Spotted At Practice Friday

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (ribs) was not on the field for the portion of Friday's practice that was open to the media. This doesn't necessarily mean he was a non-participant, but at the very least, he was significantly limited. For what it's worth, he was limited on Wednesday but did not practice […]

Velus Jones Jr. Doubtful For Week 2

Chicago Bears rookie wide receiver Velus Jones Jr. (hamstring) is listed as doubtful for Week 2. He did not practice for the second consecutive week. With Jones sidelined, look for Equanimeous St. Brown and Dante Pettis to fill depth roles behind Darnell Mooney. St. Brown and Pettis combined for two catches, 69 yards, and two […]

Van Jefferson Ruled Out For Week 2

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Van Jefferson (knee) "is making great progress" but won't play against the Falcons in Week 2, head coach Sean McVay told Sarah Barshop of ESPN. This marks the second consecutive game in which Jefferson won't suit up. Cooper Kupp is the only must-start receiver in this offense. Allen Robinson and […]

KJ Hamler Working On Side Field

Denver Broncos wide receiver KJ Hamler (knee, hip) was seen working on a side field Friday. Hamler, who returned from an ACL tear in Week 1 but did not catch a pass, has not practiced this week. He appears to be a longshot to play against the Texans in Week 2. If he is indeed […]

Mike Evans, Julio Jones Return To Practice

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receivers Mike Evans (calf) and Julio Jones (knee) both returned to practice on Friday. The duo was absent from practice on Thursday, but their return to the field suggests both veteran receivers should play in Week 2 against the Saints. With Chris Godwin (hamstring) looking like a longshot to play, Evans […]

Allen Lazard Taking Team Reps Friday

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard (ankle), who practiced in a limited capacity on Wednesday and Thursday, is expected to progress through team reps during Friday's practice. This is another step in the right direction for Lazard after he did not play in Week 1. Assuming he suits up in Week 2, the 26-year-old […]

Tee Higgins Returns To Practice Friday

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins (concussion, personal) returned to practice on Friday. The third-year wideout was limited on Wednesday due to his head injury and absent on Thursday to attend his father's funeral, but his return to the practice field to close out the week suggests he's on track to play in Week 2. […]
