O.J. Howard Off To A Disappointing Start

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end O.J. Howard has been a fantasy disappointment through four games played in 2021.

Howard played less than 20 […]

Alex Collins Unlikely To Take On A Bigger Role

Seattle Seahawks running back Alex Collins is typically used when Chris Carson needs a breather during the game. Travis Homer is the back of choice in obvious passing situations.
