Week 3 FLEX Rankings Outlooks

Chris Olave, New Orleans Saints

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave led the team in receptions, yards, and targets in Week 2, finishing with six catches for 54 yards on 10 targets. He's built strong chemistry with quarterback Spencer Rattler, totaling 13 receptions for 108 yards on 23 targets through two games. Olave is still searching for his first touchdown of the season, but Kellen Moore's aggressive passing offense suggests it's coming soon. As long as he stays healthy, his weekly target share keeps him in the WR2/WR3 mix.

Bhayshul Tuten, Jacksonville Jaguars

Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Liam Coen said that rookie running back Bhayshul Tuten "has taken a huge jump from the spring" and also compared him to Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving, whom he coached last year. Tuten is focusing on all the little details and is still a work in progress in his first NFL season, but Coen has liked what he's seen, and there's no denying that the 23-year-old is an intriguing hold in all fantasy leagues, especially after the Jags traded Tank Bigsby to the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 2.

Bigsby was limited in practice this week, but he's off the final injury report and will play in Week 3 against the division-rival Houston Texans, where he should be viewed as an RB3/flex with upside behind Travis Etienne Jr. Tuten had eight carries for 42 yards and also caught two passes for 32 yards and his first career touchown in last week's loss to the Cincinatti Bengals with an elevated workload.

Courtland Sutton, Denver Broncos

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton looked good enough in Week 1 against the Titans, pulling in six of his nine targets for 61 yards and a touchdown. However, he cooled off in the Week 2 loss to the Colts, amassing only one grab for six yards. With the Broncos sitting at 1-1, Denver will next meet the Chargers in an AFC West clash. Without question, the Los Angeles defense has played well so far throughout the 2025 campaign.

That trend might continue on Sunday. While it appears Troy Franklin is currently Bo Nix's preferred target in the first two weeks, Sutton is expected to remain involved at a consistent level moving forward. With that said, managers can give the 29-year-old a free pass for his previous performance and view him as a starting fantasy option in Week 3, especially with Evan Engram (back) ruled out.
