J.T. Barrett Back On Saints Practice Squad

New Orleans Saints quarterback J.T. Barrett has been re-signed onto the practice squad following the promotion of linebacker Vince Biegal to the active roster. Barrett has been cut and re-signed twice already in the early season. If the Saints hold onto Barrett until quarterback Drew Brees retires, it'll be interesting to see if he has […]

Leonard Fournette Not Expected To Play In Week 3

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) is not expected to play in Sunday's meeting with the Tennessee Titans. The team is being careful with their star running back and will once again turn to the combination of T.J. Yeldon and Corey Grant to man the position. Yeldon could have some success against the Titans […]

Paul Richardson Likely To Play

Washington Redskins wide receiver Paul Richardson (knee, shoulder) will likely play on Sunday when the team will host the Packers. Richardson was unable to practice on Wednesday, but he progressed enough to where he was able to practice in a limited capacity the rest of the week. He hasn't done much this season, catching only […]

LeSean McCoy Not Expected To Play

Buffalo Bills running back LeSean McCoy (ribs) may not be available for the team's Week 3 matchup against the Vikings. McCoy suffered cracked rib cartilage against the Los Angeles Rams last Sunday, and despite practicing all week, he did so as a limited participant. He will test things out during pregame warmups but If he […]

Peyton Barber Needs to Show Some Life Monday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Peyton Barber has been a huge letdown to start the year. Through two weeks, Barber hasn't totaled 100 rushing yards despite carrying the ball 35 times and has only caught one pass for five yards. This is not the RB2 most owners were hoping to draft. Barber has a decent […]

O.J. Howard Trending Upward

Buccaneers tight end O.J. Howard seems to have a good rapport with quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick. Howard's only been targeted six times this year, but he has reeled in five for catches and turned it into 150 yards and a score. Howard's targets doubled from Week 1 (2) to Week 2 (4) and could see an […]

DeSean Jackson Could Stay Hot Monday

Buccaneers wide receiver DeSean Jackson will be targeted deep a few more times this coming Monday. The Steelers secondary has been lackluster at best and Jackson has absolutely clicked with Ryan Fitzpatrick to start the year. Jackson will be seeing a lot of cornerback Mike Hilton out of the slot and should have the upper […]

Jake Butt An Interesting Week 3 Streamer

The Baltimore Ravens have allowed an average of five receptions and 60.5 receiving yards per game through the first two weeks to opposing tight ends, making Denver Broncos tight end Jake Butt an interesting Week 3 streaming option in PPR formats. Butt has seen a 13 percent target share over the Broncos' first two and his 77 receiving […]

Ryan Fitzpatrick Removed From Injury Report

Buccaneers quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick (knee) has been removed from the injury report and is clear to play Monday. There really wasn't much concern as to Fitzpatrick's availability as this was likely just a formality for the vet. Monday's matchup against Pittsburgh is quite favorable for the Magic Man as they have been porous since losing […]

Demaryius Thomas A Low-End WR3/Flex Play In Week 3

Denver Broncos wide receiver Demaryius Thomas has just 11 receptions, 81 yards, one touchdown, and 14.1 fantasy points through the first two weeks despite leading his team in targets, making him no more than a low-end WR3/flex play heading into his Week 3 matchup with the Ravens. Baltimore has allowed just 112.5 yards per game […]

Chris Godwin Expected To Play Monday

Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (toe) has been cleared to play Monday against the Steelers. Godwin gets to face one of Joe Haden and reportedly Coty Sensabaugh this week in what should be a shootout in Tampa. With all eyes on Mike Evans and DeSean Jackson, Godwin should be able to reel in a couple […]

Emmanuel Sanders A Solid WR2 In Week 3

Denver Broncos wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders has put up more fantasy points than all but eight wideouts throughout the first two weeks. However, he will face a tough challenge on Sunday against a Ravens defense that has allowed just 112.5 yards per game to opposing receivers. Baltimore's secondary showed signs of vulnerability in Week 2 […]

Mike Evans Set For Another Big Game Monday

Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans has a great matchup Monday against the Steelers. Despite Joe Haden being cleared to play, it seems that Artie Burns (toe) might be benched for Coty Sensabaugh who has taken first-team defensive snaps all week. Evans talent outmatches both corners by a good amount so he should see his fair […]

Royce Freeman A Flex Option In Week 3

Denver Broncos running back Royce Freeman has been on the wrong end of a timeshare with fellow rookie running back Phillip Lindsay through the first two games of 2018. Freeman is the only Broncos back to have found the end zone on the ground this season despite seeing an almost even split in red zone […]

Phillip Lindsay Faces Tough Road Test

Denver Broncos running back Phillip Lindsay has been a fantasy gem after putting up 178 rushing yards, 6.14 yards per carry, and 27.3 fantasy points (11th among RBs) through the first two weeks. However, he'll face his toughest test yet as the Broncos head to Baltimore to face a Ravens defense that has limited opposing […]

Case Keenum Not Worth The Risk In Week 3

The Denver Broncos head to Baltimore to face a Ravens defense that has allowed the fewest yards per pass attempt (4.47) through the first two weeks. The Ravens secondary was abused by quarterback Andy Dalton and the Cincinnati Bengals in the first half of Week 2 (surrendering four passing touchdowns), but Baltimore went on to […]

Dolphins Defense A Low-End Play This Weekend

The Miami Dolphins defense has been well below average when it comes to passing yards allowed over the first two games of the season. In Week 3, they will be facing the Oakland Raiders offense that has been well above average in passing. Derek Carr has proven to be a solid quarterback, and coach Jon […]

LeGarrette Blount Remains Lions Starting Running Back For Week 3

Detroit Lions running back LeGarrette Blount is listed as the starter heading into their Sunday night matchup with the Patriots. His production was not terrible in Week 2, gaining 38 yards on eight carries, but opposing defenses are always able to key the run with Blount being a non-factor as a receiver. He remains a […]

Albert Wilson A Low-End WR3 In Week 3

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Albert Wilson is facing a decent matchup in Week 3 against the Raiders. In Week 2 Wilson led the Dolphins in receiving yards (37) and targets (5) last week, though they only threw the ball 23 times. Wilson outperformed Danny Amendola, his main competitor for targets from the slot position, though […]

Kerryon Johnson Remains Lions Running Back To Watch Sunday

Detroit Lions running back Kerryon Johnson has easily been the most dynamic player in their backfield through two games. With the Lions off to a shaky 0-2 start, it is likely that they will be throwing out the kitchen sink Sunday night at home against the Patriots. Considering a rough season-long outlook for the Lions […]

Danny Amendola A WR4 In Week 3

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Danny Amendola is a low-end flex option in Week 3. Amendola hauled in four catches for only 32 yards in Week 2, and like always is best used in PPR leagues. Amendola has had four catches through the first two weeks but for only 58 yards and no touchdowns. The ceiling […]

Kenny Stills A WR2 In Week 3

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Kenny Stills will be the Dolphins No. 1 receiver in Week 3 against the Raiders. Stills was disappointing in Week 2 with only two catches for 17 yards, but that is the nature of a deep threat receiver like Stills. He is known to be boom-or-bust in any given week. The Raiders […]

Frank Gore A Low-End Flex Option In Week 3

Miami Dolphins running back Frank Gore will split carries with Kenyan Drake in Week 3. He got nine carries last week, but only produced 25 yards on the ground. Gore has gotten exactly nine carries in the first two weeks of the season, so his market share on offense should be somewhere in the 7-10 […]

Redskins Release Breshad Perriman

The Washington Redskins released wide receiver Breshad Perriman on Saturday, according to a source. However, the team could bring him back in the future. Perriman was a first-round bust with the Ravens and has failed to catch on elsewhere so far. He is well off the fantasy radar and is highly unlikely to produce at […]

Erik Swoope Added To Roster

The Indianapolis Colts promoted tight end Erik Swoope from the practice squad to the active roster on Saturday and waived cornerback Lenzy Pipkins in a corresponding move. The team also signed quarterback Phillip Walker to the practice squad. Swoope caught one pass for 13 yards in the season opener against the Bengals. He's merely depth […]

Nyheim Hines A Sneaky PPR Play

The Indianapolis Colts announced that running back Marlon Mack (foot, hamstring) will be inactive this week against the Philadelphia Eagles. While Jordan Wilkins should see the majority of touches this week, Nyheim Hines has some value in deeper PPR leagues. He doesn't have the same big-play ability that Mack does, but he gives quarterback Andrew […]

Brandin Cooks Looking To Establish Deep Connection

Los Angeles Rams wideout Brandin Cooks has always been a deep-ball threat with the ability to score from anywhere. He is looking to establish more of a deep-ball connection with quarterback Jared Goff. Cooks has the speed to run by most defenders, but he and Goff need to work on their chemistry on those long […]

Phillip Gaines and Taron Johnson Questionable for Week 3

Buffalo Bills cornerbacks Phillip Gaines (elbow) and Taron Johnson (shoulder) are expected to play against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 3. Both players were limited practice participants all week and are officially listed as questionable on the team's injury report. Gaines, who started Week 1 opposite Tre'Davious White, was forced to leave Week 2's game […]

Shaq Lawson Out For Second Straight Week

Buffalo Bills defensive end Shaq Lawson will miss his second straight week due to a lingering hamstring injury. Just as last week, Lawson did not practice at all this week, so it is not surprising that he is unavailable against the Vikings in Week 3. The 2016 first-round pick, who showed tremendous improvement in his […]

Antonio Brown An Elite WR1 In Week 3

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown made plenty of headlines this week after he didn't report to work on Monday. Despite the drama, Brown will be in uniform and ready to play against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Monday night. Brown will be an elite WR1 for that matchup as the Buccaneers have struggled to […]
