Ben Skowronek Catches Four Passes For 25 Yards

Los Angeles Rams receiver Ben Skowronek caught four of six targets for 25 yards in the Rams' 31-10 loss to the Buffalo Bills. Skowronek, who is the No. 4 WR on the depth chart, was drafted out of Notre Dame in the seventh round of the 2021 Draft. He was starting in the place of […]

Allen Robinson II Catches One Of Two Targets In Rams Debut

Los Angeles Rams receiver Allen Robinson II caught one of two targets for 12 yards in his Rams debut, a 31-10 loss to the Buffalo Bills. The lack of production was disappointing to fantasy owners and mystifying to fans. But the Rams looked bad in almost all facets of the game. Coach Sean McVay said […]

Darrell Henderson Jr. Leads Rams Backfield

Los Angeles Rams running back Darrell Henderson Jr. took 13 carries for 47 yards and caught five passes for 26 yards in the Rams' 31-10 Thursday Night loss to the Buffalo Bills. Henderson was the lead back in the Rams offense by far. Cam Akers, who is listed as the No. 1 RB on the […]

Cam Akers Runs The Ball Three Times For Zero Yards

Los Angeles Rams running back Cam Akers carried the ball three times for no yards in LA's 31-10 opening game loss to the Buffalo Bills. He added no production as a receiver, either. Teammate Darrell Henderson Jr. carried the ball 13 times and was targeted five times. It looks like Rams coach Sean McVay wasn't […]

Matthew Stafford Throws One TD, Three Picks In Blowout Loss

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford completed 29 of 41 pass attempts for 240 yards and one touchdown while throwing three interceptions in the Rams' 31-10 Thursday loss to the Buffalo Bills. The defending Super Bowl champions did not look composed, and Stafford lacked chemistry with his new receiver Allen Robinson II, whom he only […]

Diontae Johnson Trending Towards Playing In Week 1

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson (shoulder) was limited during Thursday's practice. Johnson has back-to-back limited practice sessions under his belt. It sounds like the team is taking it one day at a time. That being said, fantasy managers will likely have to wait until after practice on Friday for more information. The fact Johnson […]

Michael Thomas Hopeful To Play On Sunday

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas (hamstring) was limited once again during Thursday's practice. The stud wideout has practiced in back-to-back days, which is a good sign. It sounds like the organization is optimistic that Thomas will be able to get on the field for the season opener on Sunday. Thomas has been dealing […]

Saints Sign Erik McCoy To Extension

New Orleans Saints center Erik McCoy has agreed to a new deal with the organization. The former second round pick is coming off the worst season of his career. Despite that, the two sides have agreed to a five-year $63.75 million deal. McCoy is normally above average, but battled through a calf injury last season. […]

Khalil Herbert Not Worth A Week 1 Start

Chicago Bears running back Khalil Herbert will start the game as the team's RB2 against the 49ers this Sunday. The lead role belongs to tough-running David Montgomery but the Bears will need to lean on the running game in Week 1. That could open the door for Herbert to see some touches but that number […]

Kenneth Walker III Likely To Miss Week 1

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (hernia) is unlikely to suit up for the Week 1 matchup against the Denver Broncos. The rookie back was unable to practice on Thursday. At this point, it doesn't seem like Walker is going to have enough time to get ready for this contest. The expectation is that […]

Cole Kmet Has Something To Prove

Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet will begin his third NFL season against the 49ers this Sunday. The former second-round pick hasn't quite lived up to expectations thus far but this season could be a turning point. Kmet caught 60 passes last season for 612 yards but failed to find the end zone. The Bears […]

Darnell Mooney Primed For Week 1 Targets

Chicago Bears wide receiver Darnell Mooney will take on the 49ers in Week 1. Mooney blossomed last season, racking up a career-high 81 receptions for 1,056 yards and four touchdowns in a mediocre Matt Nagy offense. Now the Bears have a new offensive scheme, quarterback Justin Fields heading into his second season and Mooney is […]

Zack Moss Disappointing In Week 1

Buffalo Bills running back Zack Moss failed to make much of an impact during the season opener against the Los Angeles Rams on Thursday. He rushed six times for 15 yards and hauled in six receptions for 21 yards through the air in the victory. At least fantasy managers in PPR formats got something out […]

David Montgomery Ready For Week 1 Challenge

Chicago Bears running back David Montgomery will take on a talented 49ers defensive front in Week 1. Montgomery is the unquestioned lead back but there may be moments where the Bears try to get backup Khalil Herbert involved. That should not dissuade fantasy managers, however, to plug in Montgomery as a solid RB2/3 choice for […]

Devin Singletary Rushes For Nearly 50 Yards

Buffalo Bills running back Devin Singletary surprisingly had a decent game on the ground during the season opener on Thursday. He rushed eight times for 48 yards, while adding two receptions for 14 yards through the air. This was a fairly decent game for Singletary, but he didn't do much damage in fantasy leagues. His […]

Justin Fields Carries QB2 Status Into Week 1

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields will host the 49ers in Week 1 of the 2022 NFL season. The second-year quarterback gets a fresh start with head coach Matt Eberflus, but more importantly, new offensive coordinator Luke Getsy. But Fields will be put to the test against a stacked 49ers defensive line and questions at the […]

Josh Allen Looks Strong In Season Opener

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen came out strong during the season opener against the Los Angeles Rams on Thursday. He completed his first 10 passes and tossed two touchdowns in the process. It was a team effort to get this win, but Allen certainly came out of the gate strong. He completed 26-of-31 passing attempts […]

Joe Burrow Ready For AFC North Showdown In Week 1

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow will begin the year with an AFC North showdown against the Steelers. The 25-year-old played relatively well in his two meetings versus Pittsburgh last season, accumulating 362 yards and four touchdowns (two picks) while completing 81% of his throws. With a mid-summer appendectomy behind him, he'll have Ja'Marr Chase, Tee […]

Lovie Smith Confirms Dameon Pierce Will Start In Week 1

Houston Texans head coach Lovie Smith confirmed that rookie running back Dameon Pierce will get the start in his NFL debut in Week 1 against the Indianapolis Colts. "He's earned an opportunity to lead us. It was asked, is he our starting running back? He's earned the right to line up there with the one's, […]

Chase Edmonds Upgrades To Full Practice

Miami Dolphins running back Chase Edmonds (groin) was upgraded to a full practice on Thursday after he was listed as limited on Wednesday. Fellow back Myles Gaskin (neck) also put in a full practice. The Dolphins have plenty of capable backs behind Edmonds, but the 26-year-old is expected to operate as the team's lead back […]

Drake London Limited Again Thursday

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London (knee) was active in Thursday's non-padded practice and was listed as a limited participant on the injury report. London initially injured his knee in the preseason opener and didn't play again. The 21-year-old first-rounder could be listed as questionable for the Week 1 regular season opener against the New […]

Gus Edwards Says He's "Very Close"

Baltimore Ravens running back Gus Edwards (knee) posted on his Instagram page on Wednesday that he's "doing great and I'm very close." Edwards tore his ACL just days prior to the start of the 2021 regular season and was placed on the Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform list a couple weeks ago, ensuring that he'll miss […]

Tua Tagovailoa - Week 1 Outlook For Fantasy Football

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa is expected to have both Jaylen Waddle (quad) and Tyreek Hill at his disposal against the New England Patriots in Week 1, marking the first time he has played with the duo during a regular season game. Not only is Tagovailoa surrounded by playmakers, but he'll be playing against a […]

Rashaad Penny - Week 1 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny went on an absolute tear to close out last season. In Weeks 14-18 of 2021, he averaged an absurd 134.2 rushing yards per game. That equated to about 7.3 yards-per-carry. Penny has shown to be a top talent when given carries, but injuries have kept him from being truly unleashed. The […]

Tyler Lockett - Week 1 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett will look to get around the tough Denver Broncos defense during the Monday night matchup. Lockett has been a consistent weapon for the Seahawks, going for over 1,000 receiving yards in each of the last three seasons. Geno Smith is a downgrade from Russell Wilson, especially in stretching the field, but Lockett is good […]

Noah Fant - Week 1 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant was traded during the huge blockbuster that sent Russell Wilson to the Denver Broncos. Fant was previously building some chemistry with second-stringer Drew Lock during their time in Denver and will look to earn some trust from starting quarterback Geno Smith. Fant will likely be the third option on the offense, behind D.K. Metcalf and Tyler Lockett, and could […]

Geno Smith - Week 1 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith was recently named as the starter and will look to show precisely why Monday night against the Denver Broncos. Smith was serviceable as the starter while Russell Wilson was out due to a finger injury. From Weeks 5-8 last year, Smith threw five touchdowns and one interception, averaging 175 yards per game. The Broncos […]

D.K. Metcalf - Week 1 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver D.K. Metcalf will be going up against his former QB in the Monday night showdown against the Denver Broncos. Russell Wilson was traded this offseason in a blockbuster trade with Denver, and many doubted Metcalf's value this year now that Geno Smith is under center. In Weeks 6-8 last year, when Smith was playing in place of […]

Khalil Shakir Inactive Thursday Night

Buffalo Bills rookie wide receiver Khalil Shakir is listed as a healthy inactive for Week 1 of the regular season on Thursday night against the Super Bowl champion Los Angeles Rams. The Bills like their fifth-round pass-catcher a lot, but Buffalo is also notorious for bringing their rookies along slowly, so Shakir will have to […]

Steelers Defense A Low-End Option Vs. Cincinnati

The Pittsburgh Steelers defense draws a tough Week 1 road matchup against the AFC Champion Cincinnati Bengals. The Steelers are installed as 6.5-point underdogs in a game where the Bengals could put plenty of points on the scoreboard. Pittsburgh generally boasts a strong defense for fantasy purposes, but Week 1 against Joe Burrow and company […]
