Logan Thomas Catches Three Passes In Week 1 Victory

Washington Commanders tight end Logan Thomas caught three out of six targets for 45 yards in Sunday's win versus the Jacksonville Jaguars. The 31-year-old was listed as questionable before the matchup as it was uncertain whether he'd be able to suit up following his recovery from an ACL injury last December. However, Thomas did find his way […]

Breece Hall Gets A Dozen Touches In His NFL Debut

New York Jets rookie running back Breece Hall ran the ball six times in a Week 1 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. His six rushing attempts totaled 23 yards, and he caught six of 10 targets for another 38 yards. Hall was clearly running as the RB2 behind starter Michael Carter, but Hall got a […]

Kenneth Gainwell Scores On Limited Workload

Philadelphia Eagles running back Kenneth Gainwell carried the ball five times for 20 yards and a touchdown, adding two receptions on four targets for 12 yards during the victory over the Detroit Lions.

Kyle Pitts Quiet In Week 1 Loss

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts was quiet in the Week 1 loss to the New Orleans Saints. The second-year tight end saw a team-high seven targets, matching the rookie Drake London.

Michael Carter Works As The Clear RB1 In Week 1

New York Jets running back Michael Carter worked as the clear RB1 ahead of rookie Breece Hall in a Week 1 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. Carter ran the ball 10 times for 60 yards and was targeted nine times, catching seven passes for 40 more yards. Carter looked good for most of the game […]

Zay Jones Posts 65 Yards In Week 1 Loss

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Zay Jones finished with six receptions for 65 yards in Sunday's 28-22 loss to the Washington Commanders.

Dallas Goedert Tallies 60 Receiving Yards During Win

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert caught three of his four targets for 60 yards during Sunday's victory over the Detroit Lions. It was a decent outing for the 27-year-old, as he tied for the second-most targets for the day. Averaging five targets per game in 2021, this will likely be the typical workload Goedert […]

Najee Harris May Have Avoided Serious Injury

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris (foot) left late in the fourth quarter during Sunday's matchup against Cincinnati. Harris dealt with a Lisfranc injury throughout training camp, so fantasy managers are anticipating the worst. However, NFL Network's Mike Giardi provided a reassuring update on Twitter, commenting, "I'm told the injury is not considered a big […]

DeVonta Smith Fails To Catch A Pass In Victory

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith failed to catch any of his four targets in a victory over the Detroit Lions. The second-year receiver tied for the second-most targets on the team. It is likely the new normal for the deep-threat, as fantasy managers will have to roll the dice on putting him in their […]

Olamide Zaccheaus Pulls In Four Receptions

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus had a solid performance in the Week 1 loss to the New Orleans Saints. The veteran wide receiver caught all four of his targets for 49 receiving yards.

Christian Kirk Records 117 Yards In Week 1

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Christian Kirk hauled in six catches for 117 yards in the season-opening loss to the Washington Commanders.

Joe Flacco Throws 59 Times In Week 1

New York Jets quarterback Joe Flacco attempted 59 passes in a Week 1 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. He completed 37 of those for 309 yards, one touchdown, and one interception.

A.J. Brown Has Standout Debut As An Eagle

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown caught 10 of 13 targets for 155 yards in a victory over the Detroit Lions. The 25-year-old was the clear top target for quarterback Jalen Hurts, with no other player topping four targets.

Travis Etienne Jr. Efficient With Limited Touches In Week 1

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. carried the ball four times for 47 yards while he also brought in two receptions for 18 yards in Sunday's season-opening loss to the Washington Commanders.

T.J. Hockenson Has Quiet Day In Loss

Detroit Lions tight end T.J. Hockenson caught four-of-eight targets for 38 yards in the loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. In PPR leagues, it was a serviceable day for a tight end, but his 3.8 standard league point total was a disastrous start. The Eagles were viewed as a favorable matchup for tight ends, so it […]

Keenan Allen Won't Return On Sunday

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen (hamstring) won't return to Sunday's matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders. Allen was on a roll before going down with a hamstring ailment in the first half, accumulating four receptions for 66 yards.

Despite facing a talented New Orleans defense, London […]

James Robinson Scores Two Touchdowns In Return From Injury

Jacksonville Jaguars running back James Robinson combined for 69 yards from scrimmage on 12 total touches while scoring two touchdowns in Sunday's loss to the Washington Commanders.

Robbie Anderson Has Big Week 1

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Robbie Anderson turned eight targets into five receptions for 102 yards and a touchdown in the team's Week 1 loss to the Cleveland Browns. Anderson was involved early and often, but the bulk of his fantasy points came from a 75-yard score on a deep ball from Baker Mayfield in the […]

DJ Moore Quiet In Week 1 Loss

Carolina Panthers wide receiver DJ Moore hauled in three of six targets for 43 yards and added a seven-yard carry in the team's 26-24 loss to the Cleveland Browns.

Christian McCaffrey Scores In Week 1 Loss

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey handled 10 carries for 33 yards and a touchdown, adding four receptions for 24 yards on four targets in a Week 1 loss to the Cleveland Browns.

Baker Mayfield Scores Twice, Falls Just Short Of Victory

Miles Sanders Impressive In Victory Over Detroit

Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders carried the ball 13 times for 96 yards and a touchdown, adding two receptions for nine yards. The fourth-year back did share the load with teammates Kenneth Gainwell and Boston Scott, but he was the clear lead-ball carrier of the three. Sanders was explosive, averaging 7.4 yards per carry. […]

X-rays Negative On Mac Jones

New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones (back) was injured during the loss to the Dolphins on Sunday. Fortunately, X-rays were negative, although he'll undergo further testing once the team returns to Foxborough. The Pats will next head to Pittsburgh for Week 2. But if Jones can't play, Brian Hoyer is the favorite to replace him. […]

D.J. Chark Scores Touchdown In Lions Debut

Detroit Lions wide receiver D.J. Chark caught four of eight targets for 58 yards and a touchdown in the loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Chark was only behind Amon-Ra St. Brown on the target log, so he could be playable moving forward, especially in deeper leagues. He's unlikely to beat T.J. Hockenson in targets every […]

Cordarrelle Patterson Finishes With Over 100 Rushing Yards

Atlanta Falcons running back Cordarrelle Patterson had an impressive performance against the New Orleans Saints in Week 1. The veteran had 22 rushing attempts for 120 yards and a touchdown. Patterson also added three receptions on five targets for 16 yards in the passing game. With Damien Williams suffering a rib injury early in the […]

Harrison Butker Returns Against Cards

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker (ankle) returned to Sunday's season-opener against the Arizona Cardinals.

Nico Collins Quiet In Week 1

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins could still have the breakout season that many predicted him to have, but Week 1 didn't start out well for Collins.

Amon-Ra St. Brown Remains Top Receiving Target

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown picked up where he left off last year, catching eight of his 12 targets for 64 yards and a touchdown. The yardage wasn't impressive, but drawing 12 targets is a sign for things to come. He's locked into the No.1 WR role in Detroit until further notice, and […]
