Wil Lutz An Excellent Week 8 Option

Denver Broncos kicker Wil Lutz is one of the better Week 8 options when his team takes on the Carolina Panthers.

Pat Freiermuth Lacks Upside In Week 8

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth has been underwhelming in recent weeks and will look to get back on track against the New York Giants in Week 8.

Lucas Krull Not In Play Vs. Panthers

The third-year tight end was the team's second-leading receiver in Week 7's 33-10 domination of a depleted Saints squad.

Najee Harris Should Stay Productive In Week 8

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris got off to a slow start this season but has turned in two consecutive 100-yard performances with a touchdown.

Will Dissly Questionable For Sunday

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Will Dissly (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints.

Russell Wilson A QB2 For MNF

Courtland Sutton A WR3/Flex Vs. Carolina

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton gets one of the better matchups this Sunday when his team squares off against the Carolina Panthers.

This week, […]
