Mitch Trubisky A QB2 In Week 1

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mitch Trubisky will debut for his new team in a road game against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 1.

Browns Defense A Solid Option In Week 1

The Cleveland Browns defense opens the 2022 season with a road game against the Carolina Panthers in Week 1. Cleveland's defense will take on a familiar face as former Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield will be under center for Carolina. The Panthers were a very favorable matchup for fantasy defenses in 2021, allowing the second-most fantasy […]

Cade York A Low-End Option In Week 1

Cleveland Browns kicker Cade York showed off a strong leg in training camp and will make his NFL debut in Week 1 against the Carolina Panthers. York, a rookie out of LSU, will hope to bring some consistency to a kicker position that has long been an issue for Cleveland's special teams. While York has […]

Jamison Crowder A Shaky Streaming Option

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Jamison Crowder will be making his team debut on Thursday night against the Los Angeles Rams. The 29-year-old signed with the Bills this offseason after three seasons with the New York Jets. The expectation is that Crowder is going to be the backup slot receiver to begin the season. There is […]

Isaiah McKenzie A Shaky Option Versus Rams

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie (groin) appears to be ready to play after getting in back-to-back practices. The 27-year-old is expected to begin the season as the starting slot receiver in Buffalo. However, Jamison Crowder is also likely to see snaps in the slot, which could make for a frustrating situation in fantasy leagues. […]

Gabe Davis A Possible WR2 For Week 1

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Gabe Davis has made some significant strides during his first two seasons in the league. The 23-year-old finished with 35 receptions, 549 receiving yards, and six touchdowns in 16 games last season. Those stats were with Emmanuel Sanders and Cole Beasley on the roster as well. Now, Davis has taken full […]

Stefon Diggs Remains A WR1 For Season Opener

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs has stepped his game up to another level since joining this team. In two seasons, Diggs has 100-plus receptions and over 1,200 receiving yards in each of his first two years. The expectation is that he'll continue to be one of the best wideouts in the league. He'll draw […]

Keep An Eye On Curtis Samuel In Week 1

Washington Commanders wide receiver Curtis Samuel is set to return to the field after an injury-riddled 2021. The 26-year-old was dealt a bad hand last season as he struggled with groin and hamstring issues for most of the year. Now that he's been declared healthy, Samuel has a shot at returning to his pre-injury form. In 2020, […]

Wait And See With Jahan Dotson In Week 1

Washington Commanders wide receiver Jahan Dotson is set to make his career debut on Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars. While the No. 16 overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft has loads of talent visible in training camp, it would be best to take a wait-and-see approach with Dotson in Week 1. Rookie wide receivers have historically […]

J.D. McKissic A Decent PPR Option In Week 1

Washington Commanders running back J.D. McKissic could receive solid passing down usage in Week 1. The 29-year-old is locked into working as the lead receiver in Washington's backfield. While that does provide upside, he is essentially game script-dependent. That being said, there is the chance that Washington plays from behind in this matchup due to their […]

Carson Wentz Only A Desperation Play In Week 1

Washington Commanders quarterback Carson Wentz is set to debut with his third team in three years on Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Despite his past struggles, there is some belief that Wentz is the player who can take Washington's playmakers to another statistical level in 2022. The Commanders have had the misfortune of having a quarterback carousel […]

Terry McLaurin A Solid WR2 For Week 1

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin is locked in to lead the team's receiving game for Week 1. The fourth-year pro is set to face a Jacksonville Jaguars pass defense that was middle of the pack in 2021. With his new passer, Carson Wentz, a new level for McLaurin could be unlocked as he's been continuously hampered throughout […]

Antonio Gibson Operating As Lead Back In Week 1

Washington Commanders running back Antonio Gibson is set to assume most of the backfield work in Week 1. Although the 24-year-old was a popular bust pick for many in the offseason, his door to production has reopened due to the unfortunate injury to teammate Brian Robinson. He was placed on the reserve/non-football injury list while recovering from surgery […]

J.K. Dobbins' Status To Be Determined Friday

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said running back J.K. Dobbins (knee) is ascending quickly in his recovery from a torn ACL that kept him out all last season, and his status for the Week 1 regular season opener against the New York Jets won't be determined until Friday. Dobbins has been limited so far […]

Dak Prescott Limited With Ankle Injury

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (ankle) was limited in Thursday's practice, but he told reporters it's nothing to be worried about. Prescott said he wore a new pair of shoes, which caused discomfort in his ankle. There doesn't appear to be anything to see here, and the 29-year-old signal-caller should be just fine for a […]

Van Jefferson Likely To Miss Multiple Games

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Van Jefferson (knee) is likely to miss more than one game to kick off the 2022 regular season, according to a league source.

Christian McCaffrey On The Week 1 Injury Report

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey (shin) was added to the Week 1 injury report with a shin injury on Thursday, but he was a full participant in practice.

George Kittle Could Be Held Out In Week 1

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle's groin injury is "not good," and contingency plans are in place in case he's ruled out for Week 1 against the Chicago Bears, according to sources. One source characterized Kittle's injury as serious enough that it would be best for him to miss a game. The 28-year-old missed […]

Chris Godwin Expects To Be Game-Time Decision

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (knee) didn't practice on Thursday and expects his decision to come down to Sunday night before the Week 1 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. Godwin has made nice progress from a torn ACL last year and ditched his knee brace earlier this week. He was able to practice […]

Vikings Want To Be Creative With Dalvin Cook

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook should be very busy this season, as head coach Kevin O'Connell has high hopes for his stud ball carrier. O'Connell mentioned that the team needs to "find ways to get the ball in his hands, including on third down. When teams have plans for Justin Jefferson, then Kirk Cousins […]

Vikings Want To Unlock Jalen Reagor

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jalen Reagor has been a player that has caught the eye of new head coach Kevin O'Connell. O'Connell mentioned that the team needs "to find ways to activate what he does well," while going on to say that he thinks "this offense provides him a real platform." Although the former first-round […]

Allen Lazard Not Practicing Thursday

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard (ankle) did not practice on Thursday ahead of the team's Week 1 matchup with the Minnesota Vikings. This is something to monitor leading up to kickoff, as another missed practice on Friday would make it increasingly likely that the 26-year-old will be held out of action. When asked […]

Ron Rivera Trusts Antonio Gibson

Washington Commanders running back Antonio Gibson still has the trust of his head coach despite some fumbling issues during the preseason and training camp. When asked how he plans to use Gibson, Ron Rivera said, "we're going to give him the football and I have no issue with that." The third-year back will be the […]

Rams Extend Les Snead, Sean McVay Through 2026

The Los Angeles Rams announced long-term contract extensions for general manager Les Snead and head coach Sean McVay through the 2026 season on Thursday. Following the team's Super Bowl win over the Cincinnati Bengals earlier this year, McVay is now one of the highest-paid coaches in the NFL, while Snead becomes one of the highest-paid […]

Michael Gallup "Looks Really Good"

Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy said that wide receiver Michael Gallup (knee) "looks really good" physically.

Gallup has already ruled himself out for the season opener, and it would go […]

Roquan Smith Not On Week 1 Injury Report

Chicago Bears linebacker Roquan Smith was not listed on the team's Week 1 injury report on Wednesday.

Saints Sign Wyatt Davis
