Michael Pittman Jr. Misses Thursday's Practice

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. (quadriceps) missed practice on Thursday after he was listed as limited on Wednesday. The Colts might just be resting their No. 1 receiver ahead of Friday's practice, but it's something for fantasy managers to keep an eye on heading into the team's Week 2 matchup against the Jacksonville […]

Jaylen Warren's Week 2 Outlook For Fantasy Football

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren was a popular waiver pickup following Week 1 after starting running back Najee Harris (foot) left the season opener with a foot injury. Fantasy managers who added Warren are likely going to have to wait to deploy the rookie in fantasy lineups as Harris practiced fully on Thursday and […]

D'Andre Swift Expected To Play In Week 2

Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift (ankle) is expected to play in Week 2 against the Washington Commanders despite dealing with an ankle injury that has kept him sidelined at practice on both Wednesday and Thursday this week. A league source emphasized Swift is "good to go." "He's going to be ready," the source predicted. […]

Najee Harris Practices Fully On Thursday

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris (foot) got in a full practice on Thursday as his team gears up for a home matchup against the New England Patriots in Week 2. Harris left his team's Week 1 matchup early with a foot injury and practiced on a limited basis on Wednesday, but his upgrade on […]

Mitch Trubisky's Week 2 Outlook For Fantasy Football

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mitch Trubisky turned in a pedestrian outing in a 23-20 win over the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 1. Trubisky averaged just 5.1 yards per pass attempt in his debut with Pittsburgh in the overtime victory. He will look for a bigger game in Week 2 when he faces off against the New […]

Jets Defense Best Left Alone In Week 2

The New York Jets defense played better than the final score showed in Week 1, but they are still not a recommended fantasy option in Week 2. In Week 1, they allowed 24 points while recording two sacks and one interception. With Joe Flacco in charge of the offense, it could be another week where […]

Cowboys Defense A Risky Play In Week 2

The Dallas Cowboys defense makes for a risky fantasy play in Week 2 lineups. While the Cowboys defense did well against the Bucs in Week 1, allowing 19 points while recording two sacks and an interception, Week 2 could be a bit different. With Cooper Rush at quarterback, the Dallas offense may not be able […]

Brett Maher Not A Strong Kicking Option In Week 2

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brett Maher is not a strong kicking option in Week 2 fantasy lineups. Maher scored the only points for the Cowboys in a rough 19-3 loss in Week 1, but with Cooper Rush set to lead the Dallas offense, it's unlikely they need Maher for many extra points and unfortunately also unlikely […]

Dalton Schultz Still A Strong Option In Week 2

Dallas Cowboys tight end Dalton Schultz remains a strong fantasy TE option despite the current (and likely continued) struggles of the Dallas offense. Schultz finished Week 1 as the overall TE6, catching seven passes for 62 scoreless yards. With the Cowboys passing game about to run through Cooper Rush for at least a few weeks, […]

Noah Brown Not A Good Week 2 Option

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Noah Brown is not a great fantasy option in a Week 2 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals. Brown ended up leading the Cowboys in receiving yards in Week 1, but it was a lot of garbage time heaves by Cooper Rush that made Brown fantasy relevant. While garbage time and heaves […]

CeeDee Lamb Looks To Bounce Back In Week 2

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb will look for a bounce-back performance in a Week 2 game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Lamb had a brutal opening game, drawing 11 targets but only catching two passes for a total of 29 scoreless yards. He'll continue to operate as the team's WR1, but with quarterback Cooper Rush […]

Tony Pollard Could Be The Better Dallas RB In Week 2

Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard could put up a better performance than his backfield mate Ezekiel Elliott in a Week 2 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals. With Cooper Rush getting the start under center, it's not a stretch to assume the Cowboys offense won't be able to get too much done in the passing […]

Ezekiel Elliott Could Struggle In Week 2

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott had a decent game in Week 1 but could see his numbers dip in Week 2. Playing without Dak Prescott has always made "Zeke" slump a bit, and that could be true again as Cooper Rush will get the start under center. The Cowboys could lean on Elliott a […]

Saquon Barkley A Surefire RB1 In Week 2

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley is set to square off against the Carolina Panthers in Week 2. The superstar running back showcased his talents with 164 rushing yards and a rushing touchdown, while also adding 30 receiving yards on six receptions in New York's Week 1 victory over the Tennessee Titans. The former […]

Greg Zuerlein Not A Week 2 Fantasy Option

New York Jets kicker Greg Zuerlein is not a recommended fantasy option in Week 2 lineups. Zuerlein missed two of his four kicks in Week 1, and playing on a team unlikely to score in bunches, Zuerlein needs to be perfect to just stay in the periphery of fantasy relevance. Most leagues will have several […]

Tyler Conklin An Underrated Week 2 Option

New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin is an underrated TE2 option in a Week 2 matchup against the Cleveland Browns. He was targeted seven times in Week 1 and made four catches including the only Jets touchdown of the season so far. He's a decent pass catcher and a good enough blocker that he […]

Daniel Jones Set Up For Decent Matchup Against Panthers

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones is scheduled to play the Carolina Panthers in Week 2. The former No. 6 overall pick had an efficient performance in Week 1 versus the Tennessee Titans, though, his numbers were underwhelming with 188 passing yards, two passing touchdowns, and one interception while completing 17 of his 21 attempts. […]

Zay Jones Could See Decent Workload In Week 2

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Zay Jones is slated to square off against the Indianapolis Colts in an AFC South matchup in Week 2. The veteran wideout impressed in the season opener versus the Washington Commanders, posting six receptions for 65 yards on nine targets. The East Carolina product appears to be the No. 2 wide […]

Garrett Wilson Hopes For A Good Second Game In Week 2

New York Jets rookie wide receiver Garrett Wilson got his NFL career off to a decent start in Week 1 and he'll look to build on that in Week 2 against the Cleveland Browns. Wilson saw eight targets in the opener, catching four passes for 52 yards. A similar performance seems possible in Week 2, […]

Christian Kirk Could Be Busy Again In Week 2

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Christian Kirk will be taking on the Indianapolis Colts in Week 2. The newly-signed wideout made his debut with the Jaguars in Week 1 versus the Washington Commanders, finishing with six receptions for 117 yards on a team-high 12 targets. The former second-round pick ran 37 of his 40 routes in […]

Corey Davis Looks For Two Good Weeks In A Row In Week 2

New York Jets wide receiver Corey Davis will look to make it two strong weeks in a row when the Jets take on the Cleveland Browns in Week 2. Davis led Jets receivers in catches, targets, and yards in Week 1. With the Jets likely to have to play from behind once again, quarterback Joe […]

Allen Lazard Practices Thursday

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard (ankle) is practicing on Thursday ahead of the team's Sunday night matchup with the Chicago Bears in Week 2. This is a great sign for his availability this week after he was held out in the season opener against the Minnesota Vikings. With a struggling receiving core in […]

Elijah Moore Could Have A Good Week 2

New York Jets wide receiver Elijah Moore could have a solid Week 2 performance against the Cleveland Browns. Moore worked as the clear WR1 in Week 1, catching five passes on seven targets for 49 yards. He also scored a touchdown, but it was called back due to a penalty. With the Jets likely to […]

Tee Higgins Misses Practice Due To Personal Reasons

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins (concussion, personal) was not at practice on Thursday due to personal reasons. The third-year stud entered concussion protocol following a hit to the head in the season opener against the Pittsburgh Steelers and was limited at practice on Wednesday. Head coach Zac Taylor mentioned that Higgins was able to […]

Trevor Lawrence A Solid Option In Week 2

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence is set to face the Indianapolis Colts at home in Week 2. The second-year quarterback threw for 275 yards and a touchdown in Week 1 versus the Washington Commanders while posting only 14.4 fantasy points. Even with a perceived tough matchup against the Colts, the Clemson product looked comfortable targeting […]

Breece Hall Has A Decent Week 2 Matchup

New York Jets rookie running back Breece Hall has a decent matchup coming up in Week 2 against the Cleveland Browns. Hall showed some good flashes in Week 1, running the ball six times and seeing 10 passing game targets. He's working behind Michael Carter, but there should still be plenty to go around for […]

Jamal Adams To Have Season-Ending Surgery

Seattle Seahawks safety Jamal Adams (quadriceps) will undergo surgery to repair a torn quadriceps tendon, which will end his 2022 season. The 26-year-old suffered the injury in Week 1 against the Denver Broncos after recording three solo tackles in the game's early stages. Adams has struggled to stay healthy during his time in Seattle, as […]

Michael Carter A Decent Week 2 Option

New York Jets running back Michael Carter is a decent RB2/flex option in Week 2 fantasy lineups. The Jets will be taking on a solid Cleveland Browns run defense, but Carter's usage in Week 1 showed that the Jets will certainly give him a chance to pick up some yards. He totaled 100 yards from […]

Mac Jones Not Practicing Thursday

New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones (illness, back) is not practicing on Thursday due to an illness, but NFL Network's Tom Pelissero writes that it's his understanding that it's not believed to be COVID-19-related. Jones had an upset stomach, so they decided to give him the day off. The 24-year-old second-year signal-caller dealt with back […]

Russell Gage Returns To Practice

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Russell Gage (hamstring) returned to practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. Gage played 42 percent of the offensive snaps in the Week 1 win over the Dallas Cowboys and caught both of his targets for just 13 yards. When all of the team's receivers are healthy, Gage is […]
