Josh Gordon Leads Patriots With 83 Receiving Yards
New England Patriots wide receiver caught six passes for a team-high 83 receiving yards in the Patriots 30-14 win over the Jets. Gordon got off to a slow start but finished the game with 11 targets and some big-time catches. The talented receiver appeared to injure his hand in the second half but came back […]

Rex Burkhead Rushes For Touchdown In Week 3 Win
New England Patriots running back Rex Burkhead led the team with 11 carries for 47 yards and one touchdown in the team's 30-14 victory over the Jets. Burkhead also added six catches for 22 yards and is earning more snaps by the week. The Patriots offense has leaned heavily on the arm of Tom Brady […]

Sony Michel Disappoints Despite Early Score
New England Patriots running back Sony Michel carried the ball nine times for only 11 yards with one touchdown in the team's 30-14 win over the Jets in Week 3. Fantasy owners certainly became excited when Michel scored on the Patriots first possession but mostly disappeared from the game plan after that. Michel remains the […]

Tom Brady Throws For 306 Yards In Easy Win
New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady completed 28-of-42 passes for 306 yards and two touchdowns in the Patriots convincing 30-14 win over the Jets. Brady now has multiple touchdown passes in each of his first three games this season after another sharp performance. The Patriots built an early lead but that did not prevent their […]

J.J. Nelson Hauls In Touchdown In Loss
Oakland Raiders wide receiver J.J. Nelson had a nice welcome back game after dealing with an ankle injury throughout the first few weeks of the season. He hauled in a 29-yard touchdown in the second quarter on a flea-flicker from quarterback Derek Carr, finishing the day with four catches for 36 yards. Nelson is a […]

Darren Waller Lone Bright Spot For Offense
Oakland Raiders tight end Darren Waller dominated targets once again in the team's Week 3 loss to the Vikings. He caught a team-high 13-of-14 targets for 134 scoreless yards, proving to have one of the safest floors among tight ends so far this season. Waller's role has grown every week since a six catch 63-yard […]

Tyrell Williams Salvages Day With Late Touchdown
Oakland Raiders wide receiver Tyrell Williams failed to make an impact against a tough Vikings Defense for the majority of the team's Week 3 contest, but his late-game TD saved his fantasy day. He picked up three catches for an unimpressive 29 yards as he hauled in an 11-yard TD on a slant in garbage […]

Josh Jacobs Stymied By Vikings Defense
Oakland Raiders running back Josh Jacobs struggled to get anything going in the team's Week 3 loss to the Vikings. He picked up 44 yards on 10 carries while failing to haul in either of his two targets in the passing game. With the team playing from behind for the entirety of the game, Jacobs […]

T.Y. Hilton Exits Prematurely
Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (quad) left Sunday's game against the Falcons. The veteran receiver, who almost didn't play in Week 3 while battling the same injury, limped off the field after pulling in a touchdown reception late in the second quarter. He will not return.

Julian Edelman Leaves Games
New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman (chest) left Sunday's game against the New York Jets, holding the area after getting tackled late in the second quarter. Though he is questionable to return, it would be surprising to see him back on the field in Week 3.

Kyle Rudolph Is Unexciting Week 3 Option
Minnesota Vikings tight end Kyle Rudolph has caught 3-of-6 targets for nine receiving yards through two weeks. He has fallen into the touchdown-dependent desperation-play territory as he just isn't seeing enough usage to be fantasy-relevant. The Vikings are big favorites (-9) at home, so it seems likely that Rudolph will be run-blocking much more often […]

Damien Harris Set To Make NFL Debut
After being a healthy scratch through the first two weeks of the season, New England Patriots rookie running back Damien Harris will make his NFL debut on Sunday with James White (personal) out. Harris isn't likely to see enough snaps to be fantasy relevant this week, but if he looks good in his limited role […]

Marlon Mack, T.Y. Hilton Active
The Indianapolis Colts will have running back Marlon Mack (calf) and wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (quad) will both play against Atlanta in Week 3. Both players were game-time decisions but will be good to go. Fantasy owners should feel comfortable playing Mack, though he's likely to see fewer snaps than he does most weeks. Hilton, […]

LeSean McCoy Active For Week 3
Kansas City Chiefs running back LeSean McCoy is active for the team's Week 3 meeting with the Baltimore Ravens. With Damien Williams out and rain in the forecast, Shady should see a fairly sizable workload. He should be a low-end RB2 for this matchup, but with the upside to outperform that in this Andy Reid […]

Mark Andrews Active For Week 3
Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews (foot) is officially active for Sunday's meeting with the Kansas City Chiefs. With a lot of rain in the forecast, expect to see the Ravens throwing safe, short passes, which should help Andrews have a solid day, especially in PPR leagues. The injury concerns are there, but with how […]

Minnesota Vikings Defense In Great Week 3 Spot
The Minnesota Vikings have been lights-out on defense at home during the Mike Zimmer era, and that is unlikely to change in Week 3 against an overmatched Oakland Raiders offensive attack. The Vikings have allowed just 16.5 points/game to the Falcons and the Packers and have racked up six sacks, five turnovers, and a blocked […]

Ben Roethlisberger Expected To Be Back In 2020
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (elbow) won't need Tommy John surgery and is expected to be back for the 2020 NFL season, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Roethlisberger's 2019 season is done, but re-draft owners who are already looking ahead at 2020 should expect Roethlisberger to not return to his full form after suffering a […]

Cam Newton Likely To Practice Soon
Despite his foot injury being bad enough to keep him out of Week 3's meeting with Arizona, Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton is expected to return to practice as soon as Wednesday, with NFL Network's Ian Rapoport saying that Newton's injury is a "day to day" issue. That means Newton could be back on the […]

Alshon Jeffery Unlikely To Play
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery (calf) is unlikely to play against the Detroit Lions in Week 3, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. Jeffery's status has been up in the air all week, but it looks like the Eagles will be without him and fellow wide receiver DeSean Jackson (abdomen). Nelson Agholor and J.J. Arcega-Whiteside should […]

Antonio Brown Says He's Done With The NFL
Free agent wide receiver Antonio Brown tweeted on Sunday that he's done playing in the NFL, citing the league's contract structure and the fact that teams can void guarantees. Brown's future in the league was already in question after being released by the Raiders and Patriots already this season while facing multiple claims of sexual […]

James White Inactive For Week 3
New England Patriots running back James White (personal) won't play in Week 3 when the Patriots meet the Jets as he awaits the birth of his child. With White out, expect a healthy dose of Sony Michel on early downs and Rex Burkhead on passing downs. Michel in particular should see a ton of work […]

Teddy Bridgewater Will Start In Week 3
New Orleans Saints quarterback Teddy Bridgewater will start Sunday's Week 3 contest against the Seattle Seahawks, though the team intends to use Taysom Hill at times during the game. Heading into the weekend, head coach Sean Payton hadn't committed to a starter, though it was looking more and more like it'd be Bridgewater. This isn't […]

Denzel Ward Not Expected to Play; Upgrade Rams WRs
Cleveland Browns lockdown cornerback Denzel Ward (hamstring) is not expected to play against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday night. Ward suffered a hamstring strain during practice this week and he is looking unlikely to take the field. Meanwhile, the team is more optimistic about rookie corner Greedy Williams (hamstring). If Ward is unable to […]

Rashaad Penny Not Expected To Play In Week 3
Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny (hamstring) isn't expected to play against the Saints. Though the injury, which occurred during practice throughout the week, isn't considered severe, the team wants to be careful with its No. 2 back. In his stead, C.J. Prosise will back up Chris Carson on Sunday, with the former having relatively no […]

T.Y. Hilton May Be Available Against Atlanta
Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (quad) may play against the Falcons, with the final decision coming before opening kick. The veteran receiver managed to practice throughout the week, although in a limited capacity, but will still be considered a must-start in virtually all fantasy formats on Sunday.

Marlon Mack Game-Time Call On Sunday
Indianapolis Colts running back Marlon Mack (calf) is a game-time call against Atlanta. Mack returned to practice in a limited capacity on Friday after not participating the previous two days. Nonetheless, the team remains hopeful that the 23-year-old is in uniform on Sunday and would be considered a must-start against a mediocre Falcons Defense. If […]

Alshon Jeffery May Play, Albeit In A Limited Role
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery (calf) may still play in Week 3 against Detroit, but chances are slim that he will get a full workload even if he does. With DeSean Jackson (abdomen) already out, Nelson Agholor and tight end Zach Ertz are expected to pick up the slack.

LeSean McCoy Expected To Suit Up
Kansas City Chiefs running back LeSean McCoy (ankle) is expected to be in uniform on Sunday against the Ravens. The veteran's status was iffy coming into this one, but after practicing in full on Friday, he should take over as the No. 1 option in Week 3, with Darwin Thompson coming in for relief. McCoy […]

Greg Olsen Likely To Play In Week 3
Carolina Panthers tight end Greg Olsen (back) is expected to go on Sunday against Arizona. Olsen has been dealing with the same issue for a few weeks, so his availability in Week 3 isn't much of a shock. The 34-year-old pulled in six receptions (nine targets) for 110 yards against the Buccaneers last Thursday and […]

Mark Andrews Expected To Play Against Chiefs
Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews (foot) is expected to play against Kansas City on Sunday. This isn't a surprise as the breakout candidate was dealing with the same issue before Week 2's showdown against the Arizona Cardinals but still managed to accumulate 112 yards and a touchdown on eight receptions. The 24-year-old has been […]
