Cam Akers Needs To Maximize Opportunities

Los Angeles Rams running back Cam Akers needs to maximize opportunities when he checks into future games, head coach Sean McVay told members of the media. Akers struggled in the first game of the NFL season on Thursday, producing just three carries for zero yards on an 18 percent snap share. On the other hand, […]

K.J. Hamler Questionable For Week 1

Denver Broncos wide receiver KJ Hamler (knee, hip) was limited on practice Saturday and is officially listed as questionable heading into Monday Night Football versus the Seattle Seahawks. Hamler missed most of 2021 with a torn ACL but caught 30 passes for 381 yards and three touchdowns the year prior. As the No. 3 receiver […]

Robbie Gould Week 1 Outlook for Fantasy Football

San Francisco 49ers kicker Robbie Gould is an average-to-above average option for fantasy football kicker Week 1. The 49ers go to Chicago to face the Bears, a team with a below average defense, in a game the 49ers are expected to win by seven. There are question marks about new 49ers starting QB Trey Lance […]

Anthony Firkser Elevated To Active Roster

Atlanta Falcons tight end Anthony Firkser has been promoted to the active roster ahead of Sunday's divisional matchup against New Orleans. He was sitting on the practice squad, so this will be his first official game wearing anything other than a Titans uniform. Throughout his four seasons in Tennessee, the 27-year-old had some fantasy value, […]

Logan Thomas Will Suit Up On Sunday

Washington Commanders tight end Logan Thomas (knee) will play on Sunday versus the Jacksonville Jaguars. The 31-year-old had been questionable, so the update is positive news for fantasy managers. However, it's not good for John Bates or Cole Turner (hamstring), players who could have benefited without Thomas in the lineup. Nevertheless, Thomas is a hit-or-miss […]

Kenneth Walker III Practices On Saturday

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (hernia) was a limited participant during Saturday's practice. As a result, he is considered questionable ahead of Monday's matchup versus Denver. While the update is positive, the rookie isn't a lock to see the field for the team's opener. However, even if Walker suits up, he may see […]

Michael Woods II Won't Debut On Sunday

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Michael Woods II (illness, hamstring) won't play on Sunday at Carolina. Woods was selected in the sixth round of the 2022 NFL Draft and did enough during training camp to crack the active roster. However, that still won't make him an attractive fantasy option once he's healthy. Yet, the 22-year-old is […]

Tony Brown Added To Active Roster For Week 1

Indianapolis Colts cornerback Tony Brown has been promoted from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Sunday's opener against the Texans. The 27-year-old has played 33 games over three seasons, spending time with the Packers and Bengals. During that span, he's accumulated 58 tackles (44 solo) and two forced fumbles. While Brown is […]

Cowboys Promote Brett Maher To Active Roster

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brett Maher was promoted from the practice squad to the active roster on Saturday. The team didn't have a kicker on the depth chart, so elevating Maher was an obvious decision ahead of the Sunday Night Football matchup versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 32-year-old hasn't been the most potent fantasy performer […]

Buffalo Adds Incentives To Jordan Poyer's Contract

Buffalo Bills safety Jordan Poyer had incentives added to his contract. He is now eligible to earn an additional $2 million to the $5.6 million he is already guaranteed to make. Although it isn't a contract extension, the move may help keep Poyer as happy as possible while negotiating a potential new deal. The 31-year-old, […]

Matthew Stafford "Felt OK" After Loss

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford (elbow) "felt OK" after Thursday's loss to the Buffalo Bills, according to head coach Sean McVay. The veteran signal-caller has been dealing with an elbow issue since last year and was limited from throwing throughout the offseason. The 34-year-old was sacked seven times during the season opener, so if […]

Cooper Rush Added To Active Roster For Sunday Night

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Cooper Rush has been elevated to the active roster ahead of Sunday's matchup against Tampa Bay. The promotion of the 28-year-old may be alarming for Dak Prescott's fantasy managers, especially after the signal-caller popped up on the injury report during the week. However, there is nothing to worry about, as the move […]

Duane Brown Placed On Injured Reserve

New York Jets tackle Duane Brown (shoulder) landed on injured reserve on Saturday. He had already been ruled out for Week 1, so the latest update means he'll be out for at least three more games. The veteran signed with the team during the offseason after Mekhi Becton (knee) was lost for the year, so […]

Mike Davis' Outlook Hinges On J.K. Dobbins' Availability

Baltimore Ravens running back Mike Davis' fantasy fate hinges on whether J.K. Dobbins (knee) will play. While things aren't looking promising, there remains a chance he'll be on the field against the Jets in Week 1. Granted, if Dobbins suits up, Davis could still see work. However, if Dobbins doesn't, Davis would become a realistic […]

Derek Carr A Low-End QB1 Option In Week 1

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr comes into the 2022 season with high expectations after the team's busy offseason. With a new offensive head coach in Josh McDaniels and the addition of superstar wide receiver Davante Adams, Carr will have a much higher potential ceiling for fantasy football than in years past. Carr and the Raiders will open […]

Rashod Bateman Hoping To Erase Underwhelming Rookie Year

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman is now the clear-cut No. 1 option on the depth chart after the team traded Marquise Brown to the Cardinals. As a result, he has high hopes from the coaching staff, so he'll look to positively begin the year against the Jets on Sunday. Undoubtedly, Mark Andrews is forecasted […]

Mark Andrews Looks To Start Year On The Right Foot Against N.Y.

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews is hoping to become the league's top producer at the position. To accomplish this, the 27-year-old will look to begin the season on the right track when the birds head to MetLife for a meeting with the Jets in Week 1. Baltimore traded Marquise Brown to the Cardinals during […]

Lamar Jackson Looks To Begin Year On A Positive Note

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson didn't secure a new contract as he had hoped. However, he will look to convince the front office to pay him big money after this season and will attempt to begin the 2022-23 campaign on a high note against the Jets. The 2019 MVP is coming off a down year, […]

Bengals Defense Warrants Consideration Against Pittsburgh

The Bengals defense had flashes of consistency last season. Did it have some issues occasionally? Sure. However, Cincinnati has most of its group back from 2021-22. While the Bengals D may struggle at times during the year, the fantasy upside is there. As a result, managers certainly should consider starting Cincy's defense in Week 1 […]

Evan McPherson Looking To Become League's Top Kicker

Cincinnati Bengals kicker Evan McPherson looks to build off an impressive rookie year against the Steelers on Sunday. The 23-year-old finished last season by nailing 28 of his 33 attempts, including going 9-for-11 from beyond 50 yards. Despite his youth, McPherson is already is considered one of the top kickers in the league for a […]

Hayden Hurst Ready To Finally Break Out?

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Hayden Hurst has been disappointing fantasy managers for years. However, now that he's in Cincy and currently the No. 1 option on the depth chart, he will look to change that. He'll have a chance to begin the year on a high note against Pittsburgh in Week 1. With Joe Burrow […]

Jarvis Landry - Week 1 Outlook For Fantasy Football

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Jarvis Landry will make his regular-season debut for the team in an away matchup with the Atlanta Falcons. Landry has been very productive for fantasy in the past but struggled in each of the last two seasons in a run-heavy Cleveland Browns offense. If the Saints allow quarterback Jameis Winston […]

Don't Forget About Tyler Boyd In Week 1

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd will look to surpass the 1,000-yard this season for the first time since 2019. He'll attempt to accomplish that by starting the year on the right foot against the Steelers on Sunday. Unquestionably, the presence of Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins has caused Boyd's production to dip over the […]

Alvin Kamara Is A Must-Start RB In Week 1

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara will look to start his 2022 campaign on a high note against an Atlanta Falcons defense that gave up the sixth-most rushing yards in the league last season. Kamara has been bracing for a lawsuit stemming from an incident that occurred during Pro Bowl weekend back in February, […]

Tee Higgins Ready To Roll Against Pittsburgh

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins (shoulder) has plenty of potential to make noise for fantasy managers against Pittsburgh on Sunday. The 23-year-old entered the week dealing with a shoulder issue and was considered day-to-day. However, he hasn't appeared on the injury report since, so he should be at full strength (or close to it) […]

Jameis Winston A QB2 For Season Opener

New Orleans Saints quarterback Jameis Winston will open the 2022 season in an away divisional clash with the Atlanta Falcons. Winston looked sharp in limited preseason work and has a great matchup here in Week 1 against an Atlanta defense that gave up the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks last season. It would obviously […]

Hunter Renfrow A WR3/Flex Option In Week 1

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Hunter Renfrow will remain a focal point of the team's offense in the season opener Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers. Renfrow received a two-year, $32M extension this offseason to continue to be one of quarterback Derek Carr's most reliable targets. After not seeing the field in the preseason, Renfrow is ready to […]

Ja'Marr Chase Looks To Build Off ROY Campaign On Sunday

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase will look to build off an effective rookie year against the visiting Steelers in Week 1. Chase introduced himself to Pittsburgh by accumulating four catches for 65 yards and two touchdowns back in Week 3 last season. However, Week 12 was different, as the former LSU Tiger had only […]

Mo Alie-Cox A Touchdown-Dependent Option

Indianapolis Colts tight end Mo Alie-Cox is on the top of the depth chart to begin the season. Despite that, Alie-Cox has never surpassed 400 receiving yards in a single season. The Colts have Jonathan Taylor and Michael Pittman Jr. have are going to get a bulk of the action on this offense. Although, the […]

Alec Pierce Unlikely To Have Success In Week 1

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce has quietly been making a strong impact during training camp. The rookie wideout is expected to compete with Parris Campbell for the No. 2 role in Indy. However, it's unlikely that Pierce has a ton of fantasy value to begin the season. He's still learning this system and offensive […]
