Joshua Palmer Could Be A Sneaky Flex Option For Week 1

Second-year wide receiver Joshua Palmer will take the field with the Los Angeles Chargers in their Week 1 matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders. Palmer was the subject of overwhelmingly positive camp reports and flashed his potential in the Chargers' second preseason game. He is firmly behind veterans Keenan Allen and Mike Williams in the […]

Packers Defense - Week 1 Outlook for Fantasy Football

The Green Bay Packers defense will open the season on the road against the Minnesota Vikings. Last season, Green Bay only faced Kirk Cousins once due to the quarterback missing Week 17 and being placed on the Covid-IR. In that game, the Packers allowed three passing touchdowns, one rushing touchdown, and only recorded two sacks. […]

Mike Williams - Week 1 Outlook For Fantasy Football

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams will kick off Year 6 with a Week 1 home matchup against the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders. Williams capped off his 2021 breakout campaign with nine receptions on 17 targets, 119 yards and a touchdown in a loss to the Raiders. The Chargers have plenty of other weapons […]

Mason Crosby - Week 1 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby will travel to Minnesota to open the regular season. The 38-year-old was out this preseason due to having knee surgery. However, he was activated off the PUP on August 30th and is ready for Week 1. Crosby was the 15th overall fantasy kicker last season and was a bit […]

Keenan Allen A Reliable Option For Week 1

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen will begin his 10th professional season with a Week 1 home matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders. Allen has finished as a top-15 PPR option in each of the past five seasons and has established himself as the primary target for quarterback Justin Herbert. This is expected to […]

Romeo Doubs - Week 1 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs will open the regular season against the Minnesota Vikings. The rookie was a standout this preseason and could find his way into the starting lineup Sunday. Allen Lazard (ankle) has officially been listed as doubtful for Sunday's game and will likely be out. Doubs should start opposite Sammy […]

Sammy Watkins - Week 1 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Sammy Watkins will travel to Minnesota for the regular season opener. With Allen Lazard (ankle) officially listed as doubtful for Sunday, Watkins should open the season as the Packers' No. 1 wide receiver on the depth chart. It is a favorable matchup for the ninth-year receiver against a Vikings defense […]

Austin Ekeler Should Continue 2021 Success In Week 1

Running back Austin Ekeler and the Los Angeles Chargers will face off against the Las Vegas Raiders in an exciting Week 1 home opener. Ekeler was a fantasy league-winner in 2021 as the RB2 in all formats. The Raiders had a hard time slowing down opposing running backs last season, but even if their run […]

AJ Dillon - Week 1 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Green Bay Packers running back AJ Dillon will head to Minnesota to start the regular season. The third-year back led the Packers in carries last season, pairing again with Aaron Jones in 2022. Dillon should see an influx in carries in Week 1. Wide receiver Allen Lazard (ankle) is officially doubtful to suit up Sunday, […]

Justin Herbert A High-End QB1 In Home Opener

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert will begin his third season with a home divisional matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders. Herbert finished as the QB2 in 2021 and should be a fixture in your fantasy lineup this season. The Raiders allowed over 17 fantasy points per game to the quarterback position last year and […]

Aaron Jones - Week 1 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones heads to Minnesota to open the regular season. The sixth-year back could be in for a significant workload with wide receiver Allen Lazard (ankle) officially doubtful for Sunday's game. Jones was targeted 65 times in 2021 and was one of quarterback Aaron Rodgers' favorite targets down the stretch […]

Aaron Rodgers - Week 1 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers opens the regular season on the road against the Minnesota Vikings. The reigning MVP no longer has star wide receiver Davante Adams and will likely be without Allen Lazard (ankle) as he is officially doubtful for Sunday's matchup. It leaves Rodgers with Sammy Watkins, Randall Cobb, and Romeo Doubs […]

Eddy Pineiro Not Worth A Fantasy Start In Week 1

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro will make his debut for the team in a Week 1 home game against the Cleveland Browns. Pineiro has kicked in a total of 21 games in his four-year career. In his five games with the New York Jets last season, he went eight-for-eight on field goal attempts and nine-for-10 […]

Panthers Defense A Strong Option To Start The Season

The Carolina Panthers defense got off to a hot start last season but was unusable for fantasy during a tough stretch of opponents at the end of the year. Still, there is a lot of talent on the Panthers' defense, which will open the 2022 season against the Cleveland Browns at home. With Jacoby Brissett […]

Andy Isabella Could Be A Deep-League Streaming Option Week 1

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Andy Isabella could have some appeal in the season opener against the Kansas City Chiefs. Rondale Moore (hamstring) will be held out of action, so that could open the door for Isabella to slot in as the team's No. 3 wide receiver option behind Marquise Brown and A.J. Green. The speedy […]

Tommy Tremble's Involvement Worth Monitoring

Carolina Panthers tight end Tommy Tremble will begin his second season as a pro in a Week 1 home matchup against the Cleveland Browns. Tremble is a good athlete and could eventually produce for fantasy, but success is not usually found quickly for tight ends. Although quarterback Baker Mayfield frequently targeted the tight end position […]

Terrace Marshall Jr.’s Role Uncertain In Week 1

Second-year wide receiver Terrace Marshall Jr. will take the field for the Carolina Panthers in their Week 1 home opener against the Cleveland Browns. Despite being a second-round NFL Draft selection, Marshall failed to post any meaningful stat lines as a rookie last season. He will have a better opportunity to do so this year […]

Robbie Anderson Not A Fantasy Option In Season Opener

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Robbie Anderson will look to bounce back in 2022 after a disappointing season last year. His first chance to do so will be in a Week 1 home bout with the Cleveland Browns. Anderson has been a solid contributor for fantasy in the past and could be a relevant WR3 or […]

DJ Moore Could Start Hot In Week 1

Carolina Panthers wide receiver DJ Moore will enter his fifth season as a pro in a Week 1 home game against the Cleveland Browns. Poor quarterback play has likely held Moore back throughout his career, but he has still managed to post three top-24 WR seasons and has flashed WR1 potential. The Panthers traded for […]

Baker Mayfield Will Seek Revenge In Debut With Panthers

Quarterback Baker Mayfield is set to make his regular-season debut for the Carolina Panthers in a Week 1 home matchup against his former team, the Cleveland Browns. The Browns' defense was bottom-five in passing yards allowed in 2021, so this won't be an easy first test for the Panthers' new signal-caller. Mayfield is coming off […]

Austin Seibert Not Worth Consideration In Week 1

Detroit Lions kicker Austin Seibert is an uninspiring play in fantasy football, as the Detroit offense isn't expecting to be a high-scoring unit, and Detroit was a bottom-10 team in field goal attempts a season ago. Lions' head coach Dan Campbell is as aggressive as NFL coaches come, as the Lions led the NFL with […]

Lions Defense Not On Fantasy Radar

The Detroit Lions defense ranked dead-last in fantasy points per game last season (3.4) and is matched up with a loaded Philadelphia Eagles offense in Week 1. Additionally, the Eagles allowed the sixth-fewest fantasy points to D/STs last year. Detroit looks to be a much-improved team, but the defense is still expected to be a […]

Allen Lazard Doubtful For Week 1

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard (ankle) has been listed as doubtful for the team's Week 1 matchup with the Minnesota Vikings. After not practicing Thursday and Friday, this comes as no surprise that Lazard will likely be held out of action in the season opener. If he is by some chance able to […]

T.J. Hockenson In Line For Large Role

Detroit Lions tight end T.J. Hockenson missed the last few weeks of the 2021 regular season with a thumb injury but is expected to return to a large role in the Jared Goff-led offense. Hockenson posted a 21-percent target share last season and was the team's de facto No. 1 option before the breakout of […]

Cardinals Sign Markus Golden To One-Year Extension

Arizona Cardinals linebacker Markus Golden has signed a one-year extension worth up to $6.5 million dollars that will keep him under contract through the 2023 season. With the loss of Chandler Jones in the offseason, the Cardinals will rely heavily on Golden, who finished with 11 sacks and 48 tackles (33 solo) last season. The […]

Josh Reynolds Listed As Starter For Detroit

Detroit Lions wide receiver Josh Reynolds will be starting in three-wide sets, so he's worth paying attention to in the early part of the season. Jameson Williams will likely take his spot on the field when he returns from a knee injury, but Reynolds has some worth for now. That said, he looks to be […]

Shaquille Leonard Ruled Out Week 1

Indianapolis Colts linebacker Shaquille Leonard (back) has been ruled out for the team's Week 1 matchup with the Houston Texans. Despite being listed as a full participant at practice on Wednesday, the All-Pro will need to wait until at least Week 2 against the Jaguars to make his season debut. Leonard underwent offseason back surgery […]

D.J. Chark An Intriguing Deep-League Option

Detroit Lions wide receiver D.J. Chark played in just four games last year for the Jaguars after breaking his ankle but looks to be ready to go for Week 1. Chark is an explosive deep-threat who could be considered a boom-or-bust fantasy play in 2022. He's reportedly built strong chemistry with Jared Goff, so he […]

Greedy Williams Headed To Injured Reserve

Cleveland Browns cornerback Greedy Williams (hamstring) has been placed on the Injured Reserve list and will miss a minimum of four games. Following Williams' move to IR, the team signed cornerback Herb Miller off the practice squad to the active roster on Friday. Williams played in 16 games during the 2021 season, putting up 40 […]

Amon-Ra St. Brown A Solid Flex Option

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown posted a fantastic rookie season with 90 receptions, 912 yards, and five touchdowns last year. However, he did most of his damage when D'Andre Swift and T.J. Hockenson were banged up or out of the lineup, so regression could be coming. For now, he's still worth starting thanks […]
