Rams Engaged In Trade Talks For Cam Akers

The Los Angeles Rams have had trade talks centered around running back Cam Akers, who was the team's starter in Week 1, according to sources. However, he was a healthy scratch in the Week 2 loss to the division-rival San Francisco 49ers on Sunday after being ineffective in the season opener and after a difficult […]

New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones completed 31 of 42 passes for 231 yards, one touchdown, and one interception against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday evening.

David Montgomery Expects To Miss "A Couple Weeks"

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery (quadriceps), who didn't finish the Week 2 overtime loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday after limping off, told reporters it would take "a couple weeks" for his quadriceps injury to heal.

Justice Hill Posts A Quiet Week 2 Performance

Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill saw plenty of opportunities against the Bengals but couldn't turn it into many fantasy points. The 25-year-old received the most carries of the backfield with 11 and turned that into 41 yards while catching all three of his targets for 12 yards. His efficiency on the ground wasn't close […]

Ravens Defense Posts Just One Sack Against Bengals

The Baltimore Ravens defense/special teams posted an uninspiring performance when it comes to fantasy, but did enough for the win over a division rival in Week 2. The unit only collected one sack and one interception while allowing 24 points and 282 yards. They did a great job limiting Ja'Marr Chase and making it difficult […]

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond caught two passes for 46 yards and a touchdown in the team's overtime loss to the Seattle Seahawks. His first catch of the afternoon went for 36 yards and the score. The 29-year-old only saw three targets in the contest. Raymond sits behind Amon-Ra St. Brown, Josh Reynolds, and […]

Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta caught five passes for 63 yards on six targets in the Lions' 37-31 overtime loss to the Seattle Seahawks.

Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker delivered a better fantasy performance in the Week 2 win over the Bengals. He knocked down all three of his extra points while making two out of his three field goal attempts. The only one he missed was a 59-yarder that went wide-right. He did, however, convert on a 44 […]

Falcons Defense Posts Uneventful Week 2 Performance

The Atlanta Falcons defense allowed the Green Bay Packers to score 24 points in their Week 2 victory. Linebacker Kaden Elliss tallied one sack against Jordan Love but the rest of the team failed to force a sack or turnover. The defensive play is still encouraging as the Packers were only able to muster 224 […]

Alright, party people, guess who's back? Fantasy football, that's who! This year, many draft enthusiasts were all googly-eyed over wide receivers in the early rounds, pushing those reliable running backs to the fantasy equivalent of the backseat. Now that we are just about two weeks in, it's time to take a look and see who […]

Younghoe Koo Kicks Four Field Goals In Week 2 Victory

Atlanta Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo went a perfect 4-for-4 on field goals in the team's 25-24 victory over the Green Bay Packers. That included the game-winning kick late in the fourth quarter. He did, however, miss one of his two extra-point attempts. Koo's longest field goal came from 39 yards out, so there were no […]

Riley Patterson Makes Five Kicks In Overtime Loss

Detroit Lions kicker Riley Patterson made his only field goal attempt and all four of his extra-point tries in the Week 2 overtime loss to the Seattle Seahawks. The Lions offense should be one of the best units in the NFL, but head coach Dan Campbell often goes for a conversion on fourth down rather […]

Durham Smythe Doesn't See Much Volume In Week 2

Miami Dolphins tight end Durham Smythe saw a decrease in targets in Week 2 during the lower-scoring contest against the Patriots. The 28-year-old finished with 23 yards while catching all three of his targets. He finished with the same amount of targets as both Salvon Ahmed and Braxton Berrios this time around. Smythe's role in […]

Lions Defense Torched For 393 Yards, 37 Points In Loss

The Detroit Lions defense allowed 393 total yards and 37 points in the Week 2 overtime loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Its defense looked strong in the Week 1 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs, but that looks like an outlier performance. Moving forward, Detroit's fantasy/special teams unit should not be trusted in any matchup. […]

Tyler Allgeier Sees Double-Digit Carries Again

Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier rushed the ball 16 times for 48 yards in the team's 25-24 victory over the Green Bay Packers. It was once again a healthy workload for the RB2 in Atlanta, who saw 15 carries in Week 1. This time around, the former fifth-round pick didn't see much running space. […]

Amon-Ra St. Brown Posts 102 Yards In Overtime Loss

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown caught six of his seven targets for 102 yards in the 31-37 overtime loss to the Seattle Seahawks. A lack of a touchdown prevented him from booming in fantasy football, but he still produced a solid showing in Week 2. The third-year receiver remains a must-start and has […]

Josh Reynolds Catches Two Touchdowns In Overtime Loss

Detroit Lions wide receiver Josh Reynolds caught five of his six targets for 66 yards and two touchdowns in the 31-37 overtime loss to the Seattle Seahawks. The veteran wideout now has 146 receiving yards and three touchdowns through two weeks, meaning he should be rostered in most formats. He'll continue to operate as the […]

Jason Sanders Misses Two Field Goals Against Patriots

Miami Dolphins kicker Jason Sanders has seen better games as he proved in Week 1. In Week 2, however, he missed two of his three field goal attempts but salvaged a few points by knocking through all three of his extra points. The good news is that Sanders made the closer field goal within 39 […]

Kyle Pitts Quiet Again In Week 2

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts caught just two passes for 15 yards in the team's 25-24 victory over the Green Bay Packers in Week 2. The former first-round pick saw the least amount of targets (five) among receivers who saw at least one. The second tight end on the depth chart, Jonnu Smith, outperformed […]

Jahmyr Gibbs Draws Nine Targets In Loss

Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs rushed seven times for 17 yards and caught seven of his nine targets for 39 yards in the overtime loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Fellow running back David Montgomery (thigh) left the game early, setting up Gibbs to play the majority of passing downs. The rookie's stat line did […]

Jared Goff Throws For 323 Yards, Three Touchdowns

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff completed 28 of his 35 passing attempts for 323 yards, three touchdowns, and one interception in the 31-37 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Goff was once again efficient and prolific at home, but ultimately snapped his streak of 383 passing attempts without an interception. Still, he paid off in fantasy […]

Jets Defense Cools Off Against Cowboys

The New York Jets surrendered 30 points to the Dallas Cowboys, recording just one sack and one forced fumble in the Week 2 loss. New York's defense struggled to slow down Dallas's offensive firepower after containing Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills in Week 1. Despite a tough outing on Sunday, the Jets D/ST should […]

Austin Seibert Hits Field Goal In Jets Debut

New York Jets kicker Austin Seibert drilled a 34-yard field goal and converted on his lone extra-point try in a 30-10 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Seibert filled in admirably for the injured Greg Zuerlein (groin) despite a limited number of opportunities. It's unclear if Zuerlein is expected to return to action in Week 3, […]

Dolphins Defense Bounces Back Against Patriots

The Miami Dolphins defense/special teams needed a big week after a poor showing in Week 1, and they delivered a strong performance against the Patriots. They allowed 17 points and 288 yards but collected four sacks, a fumble recovery, and an interception. The talent is there for this unit, it's only a matter of execution […]

Titans Defense Posts Three Sacks In Win

The Tennessee Titans defense sacked quartrback Justin Herbert three times and held the Los Angeles Chargers to just 61 rushing yards in the Week 2 home victory. Herbert threw for 305 yards, two touchdowns, and zero interceptions, so the Tennessee fantasy defense/special teams did not boom. However, it looks like the team will have a […]

Tyler Conklin Has Solid Showing In Week 2 Loss

New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin hauled in five of his six targets for 50 yards in a 30-10 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Conklin led the Jets in receptions and was the second-most targeted player, trailing only Garrett Wilson. The 28-year-old could prove to be a reliable option for quarterback Zach Wilson as […]

Drake London Rebounds In Week 2

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London grabbed six catches for 67 yards and one touchdown in the team's 25-24 victory over the Green Bay Packers. The Falcons got the second-year receiver involved in the game plan early following a non-existent Week 1 stat line. London was on the receiving end of Desmond Ridder's first pass […]

Allen Lazard Does Little Against Cowboys

New York Jets wide receiver Allen Lazard secured two of his four targets for 23 yards in a Week 2 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Lazard was the third-most targeted player on New York's offense, trailing just Garrett Wilson and tight end Tyler Conklin, but this didn't translate to much production with Zach Wilson under […]

Packers Defense Struggles In Loss To Atlanta

The Green Bay Packers defense generated one interception, one sack and allowed 25 points in the team's 25-24 loss to the Atlanta Falcons in Week 2. It was a letdown after last week's two turnovers and four-sack performance against the Chicago Bears. The run game and clock control of the Atlanta Falcons ultimately cost the […]
