Week 8 Fantasy Football News and Outlooks
Tez Johnson, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie wide receiver Tez Johnson has scored in back-to-back games and is in line for increased opportunities with Mike Evans (collarbone) expected to miss most of the season. The seventh-round rookie out of Oregon has logged a full route share in each of the past two weeks, running a season-high 84% in Week 6 and 74.1% in Week 7 against the Lions.
Johnson caught four passes for 58 yards and a touchdown on nine targets in the matchup, tying tight end Cade Otton for the second-most targets on the team. With Mike Evans sidelined and Chris Godwin's status uncertain as he recovers from a fibula injury, Johnson should continue to see a full-time role in the Buccaneers' offense.
Darnell Mooney, Atlanta Falcons
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Darnell Mooney led the team in receiving yards in Week 7's loss to San Francisco, his first game action since Week 4 after missing time with a hamstring injury. Mooney caught three of his five targets for 68 yards, but was fourth on the team in targets behind Drake London, Kyle Pitts Sr., and Bijan Robinson. Mooney should continue to see more opportunities as he works his way back from injury. He draws a favorable Week 8 matchup against a Dolphins defense that has allowed the third-most points in the league through seven games.
Tyrod Taylor, New York Jets
New York Jets quarterback Tyrod Taylor hasn't officially been named the starter for the team's Week 8 matchup against the Bengals, but head coach Aaron Glenn is reportedly "moving toward" naming the veteran as the starter over the struggling Justin Fields.
Taylor hasn't impressed in limited action, completing 62.3% of his passes for three touchdowns and three interceptions. With star wideout Garrett Wilson (knee) sidelined, the Jets lack a true pass-catching threat and have also struggled to run the ball recently. If Taylor starts in Week 8 on the road against the Bengals, he'll only be a viable option in superflex formats.
Brashard Smith, Kansas City Chiefs
Kansas City Chiefs rookie running back Brashard Smith handled his biggest workload as a pro in Week 7 against the Raiders, recording 14 carries for 39 yards and adding five receptions on five targets for 42 yards. Most of Smith's rushing work came in the fourth quarter with the game already decided, but all five of the seventh-round rookie's receptions came during the normal flow of the offense.
Head coach Andy Reid has utilized Smith's dynamic ability on quick screens to the perimeter as an extension of the run game, and we may not have yet seen the full extent of how Smith can be integrated into this explosive Chiefs offense. He's one of the top waiver wire adds this week as a stash option, with the potential for more if his usage continues to grow.
Kyle Monangai, Chicago Bears
Chicago Bears rookie running back Kyle Monangai had his best game as a pro in Week 7 against New Orleans, handling 13 carries for 81 yards and a touchdown, and added two receptions (three targets) for 13 yards. The Bears have leaned into their run game more in their two games post games after their Week 5 bye, totaling 367 yards on 67 carries.
And Monangai played his highest snap share of the season at 46.3% on Sunday against the Saints, but it's worth noting that starter D'Andre Swift was dealing with a groin injury coming into the game. The seventh-round rookie is still a solid add as a strong handcuff option to Swift in an improving offense.
