Jauan Jennings Recedes To Usual Role

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings was not targeted in the team's 31-17 home loss to the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday. In Week 7 with Deebo Samuel (shoulder) out, Jennings had a career-high nine targets, leading some intrepid deep-league fantasy managers to make waiver claims hoping that Jennings was becoming a thing. It shouldn't […]

Geno Smith Steals Win In Week 8

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith completed 23-of-37 passes for 254 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions in Seattle's victory over the Cleveland Browns on Sunday.

Nico Collins Sees Team-High 6 Targets In Week 8 Loss

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins saw a team-high six targets in the team's 15-13 loss against the Carolina Panthers in Week 8.

Houston Texans running back Dameon Pierce couldn't get much going on the ground in the team's 15-13 loss against the Carolina Panthers in Week 8. Pierce ran the ball just 12 times for 46 yards in the contest. The second-year back continues to see limited opportunities on offense with veteran Devin Singletary in Houston. They […]

George Kittle Sets Season High In Receptions, Yards

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle had one of his best games of 2023 in a 31-17 home loss to the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday.

C.J. Stroud Throws For 140 Yards In Week 8 Loss

Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud struggled through the air in the team's 15-13 loss against the Carolina Panthers in Week 8.

Evan Engram Shines In Win vs. Steelers

Jacksonville Jaguars tight-end Evan Engram caught all ten of his targets for 88 yards in a victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers, while also losing a fumble on a shovel pass.

Brandon Aiyuk Goes Over 100 Yards

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk had a solid game on Sunday at home versus the Cincinnati Bengals. He finished with five catches on nine targets for 109 yards receiving.

Calvin Ridley Earns 83 Yards In Bounce-Back Effort

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Calvin Ridley hauled in six passes on 10 targets for 83 yards in a win against Pittsburgh. It was a nice rebound effort for Ridley who was coming off of two dismal performances, lowlighted by his one-catch, five-yard game this past week. The former first-rounder tied for the team lead in […]

Mark Andrews Finds The End Zone Again

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews was the only pass-catcher to find the end zone in the team's Week 8 win over the Arizona Cardinals. The star tight end posted 40 yards and a touchdown on four receptions out of five targets. Andrews got himself open in the red zone as per usual and Lamar […]

Kenny Pickett's Status 'Up In The Air' For Week 9

Christian Kirk With Only 46 Yards In Win

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Christian Kirk caught four-of-five targets for 46 yards in a Week 8 win vs. Pittsburgh on Sunday. With the great matchup and Kirk in the NBA jam flames of late, this was definitely a let-down performance for fantasy managers. The former third-round pick was fourth on the team in targets, as […]

Lamar Jackson Cools Off Against Cardinals

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson went wild in Week 7 and was primed to continue that momentum against a weaker Cardinals defense in Week 8, but couldn't quite fulfill that fortune. The former MVP ended with 157 yards and one touchdown through the air while collecting 17 yards on five carries. Jackson still boasted a […]

Gus Edwards Tallies Three Touchdowns Against Cardinals

Baltimore Ravens running back posted a huge performance in a 31-24 win over the Arizona Cardinals in Week 8. The veteran back gathered 80 yards on 19 cards and found the end zone three times.

Christian McCaffrey Ties NFL Record With Two Touchdowns

San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey scored a touchdown in his 17th consecutive game, including playoffs, in Sunday's 31-17 home loss to the Cincinnati Bengals.

Travis Etienne Jr. Puts Up Top-Five Performance Yet Again

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. Rushed 24 times for 79 yards, adding three receptions for 70 yards and a score through the air.

David Njoku Finds The End Zone In Week 8

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku caught four of his eight targets for 77 yards and a touchdown in a 24-20 loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 8. Njoku wound up posting his best game of the season in the loss. The touchdown was his first of the year and came on an 18-yard […]

Amari Cooper Goes For 89 Yards In Week 8 Loss

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Amari Cooper caught six of his 11 targets for 89 yards in a 24-20 loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 8. Cooper was coming off of a disappointing two-catch performance in Week 7, so fantasy managers were surely happy to see him get going in the loss to Seattle. The […]

Brock Purdy Turning Into A Pumpkin?

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy failed to lead his team to a comeback victory for the third consecutive game on Sunday in a 31-17 home loss to the Cincinnati Bengals.

Tyler Boyd Scores Again In Week 8

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd had three catches for 40 yards and a touchdown in the Week 8 meeting with the 49ers. The wideout hasn't been the most consistent fantasy option this season. However, he has scored twice in his last two games, so his season hasn't been a total disaster. Boyd should cool […]

Pierre Strong Jr. Racks Up 82 All-Purpose Yards In Week 8

Cleveland Browns running back Pierre Strong Jr. carried the ball 10 times for 41 yards and added a 41-yard reception in a 24-20 loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 8.

Jerome Ford Plays Through Ankle Injury To Rush For 37 Yards

Cleveland Browns running back Jerome Ford (ankle) carried the ball nine times for 37 yards while adding a two-yard catch in a 24-20 loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 8.

Cleveland Browns running back Kareem Hunt carried the ball 14 times for 55 yards and a touchdown while adding a 12-yard catch in a 24-20 loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 8.

Tee Higgins Has A Decent Showing In Week 8

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins had five catches for 69 yards in Sunday's win over the 49ers. Higgins hasn't had the best season, considering he has underperformed while missing time due to a rib injury. But the wideout, who had just two catches in each of his last three games, was productive, so it […]

P.J. Walker Struggles In Week 8

Cleveland Browns quarterback P.J. Walker completed 15 of his 31 passes for 248 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions while adding six rushes for 27 yards in a 24-20 loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 8.

Raheem Mostert Scores His Tenth Rushing Touchdown This Season

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert cashed in his tenth rushing touchdown of the season and his 12th overall.

Despite Jeff Wilson Jr. seeing a bit […]
