Evan Engram's Usage Too Concerning to Trust Against Colts

Denver Broncos tight end Evan Engram (calf) is expected to suit up for Week 2 against the Indianapolis Colts after leaving the opener with a calf contusion. Engram's usage before the injury was concerning, as he played just 44% of the snaps overall and was on the field for only 56% of Denver's passing plays. […]

Drake Maye Has Big Upside Against Struggling Defense

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye has top-12 fantasy upside heading into Sunday's Week 2 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. Maye was solid with 287 passing yards, one touchdown, and one interception in the season opener last week, but he has the potential to take a bigger leap this weekend given the Dolphins' struggling defense. […]

Titans D/ST Face Tough Matchup Against Rams

The Tennessee Titans' defense turned in a strong fantasy performance in Week 1, forcing four turnovers against the Denver Broncos while allowing 20 points to finish as the 10th-ranked D/ST.

Tennessee Titans kicker Joey Slye delivered a huge performance in Week 1, drilling all four of his field goal attempts in a 20-12 loss to the Denver Broncos.

Michael Wilson Off of the Fantasy Radar in Week 2

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson received the third most targets on the team in Week 1 but could only manage to turn that into one reception for five yards.

Marvin Mims Jr. a High-Risk Play Facing Colts

Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. is best kept on the bench and projects to be a high-risk WR3 facing the Indianapolis Colts in Week 2.

Kyler Murray Holds QB1 Value Again in Week 2

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray finished just outside of QB1 territory in Week 1 after throwing two touchdowns against the New Orleans Saints.

Troy Franklin Looking to Claim Starting Job in Week 2

Denver Broncos wide receiver Troy Franklin was given a starter's workload in Week 1 and is looking to build on that performance in Week 2 when the Broncos travel to Indianapolis to face the Colts.
