A.J. Brown Set Up To Bounce Back Against The Colts

Tennessee Titans wide receiver A.J. Brown (knee) returned to full participation in Thursday's practice.

Diontae Johnson Misses Second Straight Practice

Patterson handled a season-high 12 touches last week, tallying 69 scrimmage yards with two touchdowns in his team's loss to Tampa Bay.

Ben Roethlisberger Practices On A Limited Basis Thursday

Demetric Felton Limited With Hip Issue On Thursday

Cleveland Browns running back Demetric Felton was limited with a hip injury on Thursday. Felton got in a full practice on Wednesday, so it is unclear whether he picked up the injury. Either way, a Wednesday-to-Thursday downgrade is not exactly great news for Cleveland as they prepare to face the Chicago Bears in Week 3. […]

Carson Wentz Misses Another Practice

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Carson Wentz (ankle) missed another practice on Thursday. Wentz has been an adequate game manager for the Colts thus far, but projects to miss time due to injury.

Russell Gage Absent From Practice Once Again Thursday

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Russell Gage (ankle) didn't practice on Thursday. Gage logged his second straight 'DNP' after failing to record any practice activity on Wednesday as well.

Jackson will "be […]

Odell Beckham Jr. To Play In Week 3

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (knee) will play against the Chicago Bears in Week 3, barring any setbacks with his surgically-repaired knee.

Nick Chubb A Solid RB1 Vs. Chicago

Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb is off to a fast start this season, posting three rushing touchdowns through two games.

Mike Williams Looks To Continue Strong Start To Season In Week 3

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams will look to put together another strong performance in Week 3 versus the Kansas City Chiefs. The free agent to be has caught 15 passes for 173 and two touchdowns, but most importantly has looked healthy in the first two weeks of the year. Week 3 will present […]

Keenan Allen Seeks Third Straight 100-Yard Game In Week 3

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen will look to pick up 100 yards for his third straight game in Week 3 versus the Kansas City Chiefs. The Chiefs defense has allowed 150 yards per game to opposing wideouts this year, but only one touchdown. Despite that, Allen has become one of the most consistent […]

Austin Ekeler Remains An RB1 In Week 3

Travis Kelce Continues To Be The Top Tight End Option In Week 3

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce will once again be the top tight end entering a Week 3 matchup versus the Los Angeles Chargers. The league's top tight end has been off to a hot start this year and has caught 13 balls for 185 yards and three touchdowns over the first two weeks. […]

Tyreek Hill Should Return To Form In Week 3

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill will look to bounce back in Week 3 versus the Los Angeles Chargers. Hill had a rough Week 2 versus the Baltimore Ravens with just 3 receptions for 14 yards and one rushing attempt for 15 yards. It was a far cry from the 11 receptions and 197 […]

Clyde Edwards-Helaire Will Look To Improve In Week 3

Kansas City Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire will look to turn his season around in Week 3 versus the Los Angeles Chargers. CEH has really struggled in his sophomore season and has rushed 27 times for 89 yards and no touchdowns over the first two weeks of the season. The Chiefs to no surprise are […]

Titans Defense Could Be A Streaming Option In Week 3

The Tennessee Titans defense could be an option for fantasy managers in Week 3 if Indianapolis Colts starting quarterback Carson Wentz (ankles) is ruled out on Sunday. The Titans defense has faced two explosive offenses in the Seattle Seahawks and Arizona Cardinals in 2021. Tennessee allowed 119 points and 813 yards of total offense as a […]

Patrick Mahomes Remains A QB1 In Week 3

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes will once again be a QB1 in a Week 3 battle versus the Los Angeles Chargers. The Chargers defense has only allowed 186 yards per game through the air this season, but much of that can be due to the fact that the Washington Football Team only attempted 21 […]

Mike Davis Could Bounce Back Against Giants
