Jake Elliott Makes a Field Goal and Three Extra Points in Week 3

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott made all of his kicks in Week 3, putting up a 25-yard field goal and three extra points. Elliott didn't get as many chances as expected to kick field goals, but he was still accurate as ever. He should keep being a solid fantasy kicker on a good offensive team.

Giants Defense Remains Awful In Win

The New York Giants Defense did everything they could to lose the game on Sunday. After Daniel Jones led the Giants to a go-ahead score with just over a minute left, the secondary inexplicably let Mike Evans beat them over the top. It took a missed 34-yard field goal for the Giants to hold onto […]

J.J. Arcega-Whiteside Catches Just One Pass in Week 3

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver J.J. Arcega-Whiteside caught just one pass in Week 3, gaining 10 yards. The rookie was expected to take on a bigger role in Week 3 since DeSean Jackson (groin) and Alshon Jeffery (calf) were both out, but instead it was Nelson Agholor and Mack Hollins taking on the brunt of […]

Wayne Gallman Takes Over For Barkley

New York Giants running back Wayne Gallman took over for Saquon Barkley after Barkley left early with an ankle injury on Sunday. The only issue is that the Giants were coming from behind and didn’t use Gallman much. He finished the day with just five carries for 13 yards. The Giants are likely to go […]

Darius Slayton Impressive In First NFL Game

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton looked good in his first NFL game. After missing the first two weeks with a hamstring injury, Slayton immediately slotted in as the Giants deep threat with Cody Latimer (concussion) out. Daniel Jones looked his way for a few big plays, and it looks like Slayton has a […]

Eric Ebron Is Held In Check In Week 3

Indianapolis Colts tight end Eric Ebron does his best damage down in the red zone. During Week 3 against the Atlanta Falcons, he didn't get that opportunity, and his final stat line reflected that. On four targets, he caught three balls for 47 yards. As we've seen through the first three weeks. Ebron is going […]

Nelson Agholor Scores Two Touchdowns in Week 3

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor scored two touchdowns in Week 3, catching eight passes for 50 yards. Agholor's touchdowns came on a 20-yard pass in the third quarter and a two-yard pass late in the fourth. It was a full Agholor game, as he also dropped some key passes on critical plays. Agholor's expanded […]

Mason Rudolph Held In Check By 49ers

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph completed 14 of 27 passes for 174 yards, two touchdowns, and an interception in Sunday's 24-20 loss to the 49ers. The Steelers were pretty conservative in their gameplan with the signal caller making his first career start. The few times that they did make some deep throws, gold struck for […]

Sterling Shepard Looks Good In Return

New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard looked great in his return from a concussion on Sunday, catching seven of his nine targets for 100 yards and a touchdown. The big day may have been at least partially due to the Bucs secondary, but Shepard was also elusive in space and clearly has the confidence […]

Daniel Jones Era Begins In Style

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones played the hero on Sunday for the Giants. He completed 23 of 36 passes for 336 yards with two TDs and zero INTs, while also rushing four times for 28 yards and two TDs, including the eventual game winner with 1:20 to play. It’s hard to overstate how much […]

Preston Williams Leads Dolphins Receivers

For the second week in a row, Miami Dolphins wide receiver Preston Williams led the team in both targets and yards in another blowout loss to the Cowboys in Week 3. Williams only caught four passes for 68 yards but his 12 targets doubled those of fellow receiver Devante Parker, as the rookie continues to […]

Mack Hollins Catches Four Passes in Week 3

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Mack Hollins caught four passes in a Week 3 loss, gaining 62 yards. Hollins played a bigger role in this one with DeSean Jackson (groin) and Alshon Jeffery (calf) out. Rookie J.J. Arcega-Whiteside was expected to play a larger role than Hollins, but it was Hollins that made more noise on […]

Saquon Barkley Possibly Looking At Multi-Week Absence

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley is looking at a possible multi-week absence after suffering an ankle sprain on Sunday. The Giants are expecting him to miss “some time,” but there has been no indication of whether that means a trip to the IR or not. Obviously, it’s a massive blow for the Giants […]

Evan Engram Still Top Weapon For Giants

New York Giants tight end Evan Engram didn’t miss a beat going from Eli Manning to Daniel Jones, securing six of his eight targets for 113 yards and one TD. Engram made a ridiculous one-handed catch in the first half and looked like Jones’ first read for much of the afternoon, including on the final […]

Zach Ertz Catches Four Passes in Week 3

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz caught four passes in Week 3, gaining 64 yards. Ertz was expected to be a target monster with Alshon Jeffery (calf) and DeSean Jackson (groin) out, but the Eagles ran most of their offense through Nelson Agholor and the running game. Ertz disappointed a bit this week, but should […]

Monster Game For Mike Evans

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans got off to a scorching start in Week 3 at home versus the New York Giants. He made up for two dismal weeks in a row by having a monster outing. Evans took 11 targets from Jameis Winston and turned them into seven receptions for 146 yards and […]

Zach Pascal Shows Some Flash In Week 3

After failing to register a target through the first two weeks of the season, Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Zach Pascal came down with two catches for 53 yards and a touchdown. This offense, outside of wide receiver T.Y. Hilton, is impossible to predict on a weekly basis. Pascal gives a good amount of size that […]

Cowboys Defense Does Well As Expected Against The Dolphins

The Dallas Cowboys Defense did about as well as expected against an always-scuffling Miami Dolphins team in Week 3. They allowed just six points on two field goals, adding three fumbles (one lost) and three sacks. They were unable to come up with any interceptions, but it was still a strong performance as expected. The […]

Brett Maher Makes a Field Goal and Four Extra Points in Week 3

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brett Maher made one of his two field goal attempts and all four of his extra points in Week 3. Maher missed a 55-yarder, but made a 28-yard kick and was perfect on extra point attempts. Maher should be one of the more consistent kickers in the NFL going forward, especially once […]

Lamar Jackson Rushes For A Touchdown

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson didn't throw a touchdown but managed to run one in during the loss to the Chiefs on Sunday. Jackson would finish with 46 rushing yards on eight attempts and also went 22-for-43 for 267 yards. After accumulating seven touchdowns coming into this one, the sophomore failed to find the end […]

Blake Jarwin Makes Just One Three-Yard Catch in Week 3

Dallas Cowboys tight end Blake Jarwin didn't do much in Week 3, catching just one pass for a three-yard gain. Jason Witten made three catches and the Cowboys passing game as a whole wasn't needed much in Week 3, so there wasn't much left for Jarwin. Jarwin has shown some promise here and there, but […]

Randall Cobb Catches Two Passes in Week 3

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Randall Cobb caught just two passes in Week 3, gaining 23 yards. Cobb was thought to perhaps take on a larger role with the absence of Michael Gallup (knee), but the Cowboys passing game as a whole took a break as the team coasted to an easy win against the fish-out-of-water […]

John Brown Quiet in Win

Buffalo Bills wide receiver John Brown put up a ho-hum fantasy line on Sunday, catching 4-of-5 targets for 59 yards in a 21-17 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. Brown did reel in a 27-yard catch from quarterback Josh Allen but saw his usage cut into by Cole Beasley (10 targets) and Dawson Knox, who caught […]

Devin Smith Comes Down With Two Passes in Week 3

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Devin Smith caught two passes in Week 3, gaining 39 yards. Smith was expected to have an expanded role with Michael Gallup (knee) out, but with the Cowboys easily coasting against the Miami Dolphins, the passing game was mostly not needed. Smith should have a decent role next week, but will […]

Jason Witten Catches Three Passes in Week 3

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jason Witten caught three passes in a Week 3 win. His three catches gained 54 yards, as Witten rumbled for way more yardage than his usual "catch-and-fall" game. Many fantasy owners likely expected Witten to come down with a score against the Miami Dolphins "defense," but the Cowboys actually were only […]

Amari Cooper Scores Two Touchdowns in Week 3

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper scored two touchdowns in Week 3. He caught six passes, gaining 88 yards. His first touchdown was on a first quarter five-yard pass from Dak Prescott, and his second came on a 19-yard strike in the third quarter. Cooper played well in a game against the useless Miami Dolphins […]

Darren Sproles Records Two Touches in Week 3

Philadelphia Eagles running back Darren Sproles recorded just two touches on offense in Week 3. He ran the ball twice, gaining just four yards. He was unable to come up with anything in the passing game. With Alshon Jeffery (calf) and DeSean Jackson (groin) out, some expected Sproles to take on an increased role, but […]

Jordan Howard Scores a Touchdown in Week 3

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jordan Howard found the end zone in Week 3. Howard ran the ball 11 times for just 37 yards, but ran in a one-yard goal line score in the first quarter. Howard didn't make an impact in the passing game. Rookie running back Miles Sanders saw 13 carries, so Howard was […]

T.Y. Hilton Does His Work Early

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (quad) left the team's Week 3 game against the Atlanta Falcons with an injury, but it didn't matter. He got his work done early on, as he finished with eight catches for 65 yards and a touchdown. He lead the team by a mile with 10 targets on the […]

Kerryon Johnson Fails To Impress With Heavy Workload

Detroit Lions running back Kerryon Johnson saw a season-high 20 touches in Week 3 against the Eagles, including four inside the 10-yard line, but was unable to capitalize with C.J. Anderson no longer lurking in the background. Johnson finished the day with a measly 36 yards on the ground and one touchdown while adding one […]
