Christian Watson An Extremely Risky Flex Option

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson will face the Chicago Bears on Sunday night. The first-round rookie played 66% of the offensive snaps in Week 1 against Minnesota but produced only two receptions on four targets for 34 yards. He also dropped a deep go-ahead touchdown down the sideline. It was positive to see […]

Nick Bosa A High-End Defensive End In Week 2

San Francisco 49ers defensive end Nick Bosa is a high-end DE/edge-rushing option for IDP leagues in his Week 2 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. Bosa is coming off a one-sack, multi-pressure showing against the Bears and facing another weak offensive line. PFF ranked the Seahawks the single worst O-line in its preseason rankings, and they […]

49ers Defense Week 2 Outlook

The San Francisco 49ers defensive and special teams unit faces a Seattle Seahawks offense that entered the season with low expectations. The Seahawks ranked 20th in total offense last season—and that was with Russell Wilson at quarterback. Now Geno Smith is the starter. He looked very bad early in his career, then he only played […]

Robbie Gould's Week 2 Outlook For Fantasy Football

San Francisco 49ers kicker Robbie Gould is coming off a game in which he made the only field goal he attempted, and he's facing a Seattle Seahawks team this week that allowed 6.6 kicking points per game last season, the 13th-fewest in the league. The Seahawks defense is about average, and the 49ers offense is […]

Jordan Mason A Potential Stash

San Francisco 49ers rookie running back Jordan Mason could have an expanded role in the 49ers upcoming home game against the Seattle Seahawks. With starting RB Elijah Mitchell (knee) set to miss the next eight or so games with a sprained MCL, other Niners backs will have to step up. Jeff Wilson Jr. is the […]

Jeff Wilson Jr. Must Step Up In Week 2

San Francisco 49ers running back Jeff Wilson Jr. takes on the starting role for the 49ers in their Week 2 home matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. Wilson started four games last year and averaged 44.3 yards per game and 3.9 yards per carry in those games. The Seahawks played well on defense in their Week […]

Brandon Aiyuk Has Good Matchup, Poor Situation

While San Francisco 49ers receiver Brandon Aiyuk's Week 2 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks is favorable on paper, the situation surrounding his team is not. The Seahawks defense allowed the second-most passing yards in 2021 and gave up 340 to the Broncos Week 1. Both the Broncos top two WRs scored double digits in PPR. […]

Deebo Samuel's Dual-Threat Role Brings Upside

San Francisco 49ers receiver Deebo Samuel's role in his team's running game offers him some insurance value in his Week 2 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. The Niners' passing game looked terrible Week 1, and Samuel only made two catches, but he still finished inside the top 30 WRs in standard scoring on the strength […]

Matt Prater A Starting Option In Week 2

Arizona Cardinals kicker Matt Prater is a solid option in Week 2 in what could be a high-scoring affair with the Las Vegas Raiders. He didn't attempt a field goal in Week 1, but that was expected when the Cardinals went down by multiple possessions early in the game. The 38-year-old was a decent option […]

AJ Dillon Is A High-End RB2 In Week 2

Green Bay Packers running back AJ Dillon will face the Chicago Bears on Sunday night in Green Bay's home opener. The 24-year-old tallied 15 touches in Week 1 against Minnesota, totaling 91 yards while scoring the Packers' lone touchdown. Dillon out-touched teammate Aaron Jones 15-8, and while he will likely have more carries on a […]

Cardinals Defense Draws Another Tough Matchup In Week 2

The Arizona Cardinals defense will have their hands full once again in Week 2 as they take on Derek Carr, Davante Adams, Darren Waller, and company. They were shredded in Week 1 by Patrick Mahomes as they allowed 360 passing yards and five touchdowns. After what we saw in the season opener, it is hard […]

Trey Lance Has Rushing Floor In Week 2

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Trey Lance will attempt to quiet the doubters when the Seahawks come to Levi's Stadium for a Week 2 divisional matchup. Lance struggled last week against the Bears, finishing as the QB27, but Soldier Field was a sloppy mess from heavy rain. It is likely to rain in San Francisco, too, […]

Damien Williams Ruled Out For Week 2

Atlanta Falcons running back Damien Williams (rib) has been ruled out for the Week 2 contest against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday. Williams missed practice all week after picking up the injury in the Week 1 loss to the New Orleans Saints. He was expected to have a big role as Cordarrelle Patterson's backup, […]

Greg Dortch Could Be A Solid Option In Week 2

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Greg Dortch could have some solid upside in Week 2 after a strong performance in the season opener. The 24-year-old led the team in targets with nine, turning it into seven catches for 63 yards. With Rondale Moore (hamstring) unlikely to play again, Dortch will take on the slot receiver role […]

Aaron Jones A Bounce-Back Candidate Against Chicago

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones will face the Chicago Bears on Sunday night. After receiving just eight touches last week, the 27-year-old will look to bounce back against the division rival. Jones was hyper-efficient with his touches, averaging 9.8 yards per carry and nine yards per reception in Week 1. Teammate AJ Dillon […]

Cory Sandhagen In Need Of A Rebound Win

After a couple of big knockout wins against future Hall of Famers, Cory Sandhagen (14-4) has struggled of late and is looking to rebound from back-to-back losses when he enters the Octagon for Saturday's main event against Song Yadong. With several impressive finishes under his belt against big names, nine of Sandhagen's 14 career wins […]

Song Yadong Looking For Fourth Straight Win

Riding a three-fight winning streak heading into Saturday's main event, Team Alpha Male's Song Yadong (19-6-1) will look to take a victory from the struggling Cory Sandhagen. Since joining the UFC in 2017, Yadong has amassed an impressive 8-1-1 record in the organization's bantamweight division. Able to earn a victory by any means necessary, 11 […]

Marquise Brown A Solid Option In Week 2

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marquise Brown will look to build on a solid start to the season after catching a touchdown in his Cardinals debut. The former Baltimore Raven looks to be Kyler Murray's go-to target down the field, as he had 102 air yards and an average target distance of 17 yards in the […]

Chris Godwin Still In Play For Week 2

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles said that wide receiver Chris Godwin (hamstring) and left tackle Donovan Smith (elbow) are still in play to suit up in Week 2 against the New Orleans Saints. However, if Bowles had to guess, he said it's unlikely that either plays on Sunday. Expect both Godwin and Smith […]

Running Back Fantasy Football Outlooks: Week 2 Lowdown For Jamaal Williams, Jeff Wilson Jr., Khalil Herbert

Unsurprisingly, Week 1 didn't end without having its share of banged-up players, many of which are essential components of fantasy lineups. On the other hand, a handful in of performers emerged and took on a more prominent role than most had foreseen, doing so despite the availability of those above them on the depth chart. […]

Gregory Rodrigues Set For Saturday's Co-Main Event

Gregory Rodrigues (12-4) will step into the Octagon on Saturday against a very tough opponent in Chidi Njokuani in the night's co-main event of action. Rodrigues has a 3-1 record since joining the UFC, with his lone loss coming in a close split decision. He is entering Saturday's contest coming off of a rebound win […]

James Conner A High-End RB2 In Week 2

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner will look to build off a solid start to the season after he totaled five receptions, 55 total yards, and a touchdown in Week 1. In a negative game script for running backs, Conner was still able to produce a solid performance for fantasy managers. His usage close to […]

Mecole Hardman, Justin Watson Injured In Week 2 Win

Kansas City Chiefs wide receivers Mecole Hardman (ankle) and Justin Watson (shoulder) both picked up injuries in Thursday night's 27-24 win over the Los Angeles Chargers. Hardman caught three of his four targets for 49 yards, while Watson caught both of his targets for 50 yards and his first touchdown since 2019. Hardman had his […]

Chidi Njokuani Looking To Continue Middleweight Run

Looking impressive since his Contender Series knockout victory, Chidi Njokuani (22-7) has won both of his UFC appearances since, both by first-round knockout/TKO. Proven to be a devastating striker both in and before his time in the UFC, 14 of his 22 career wins have come by KO/TKO, with several of them coming in the […]

Aaron Rodgers Looks To Bounce Back Against Chicago

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers will face the Chicago Bears on Sunday night. After an abysmal fantasy performance in Week 1 against Minnesota, last season's MVP will look to bounce back in a favorable matchup. While Chicago held Trey Lance and the 49ers to 164 passing yards last week, the game was played in, […]

C.J. Uzomah To Be Game-Time Decision

New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh said that tight end C.J. Uzomah (hamstring) will be a game-time decision in Week 2 against the Cleveland Browns. Uzomah practiced in full on Wednesday but then was downgraded to a limited practice participant on Thursday. Expect the 29-year-old to officially be listed as questionable on Friday's final […]

D'Andre Swift Listed As Questionable For Week 2

Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell said that running back D'Andre Swift (ankle) is questionable for Week 2 against the Washington Commanders. Campbell also said that Swift will practice "a little bit" on Friday after he sat out on Wednesday and Thursday. Swift rolled his ankle in the Week 1 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, […]

Kyler Murray A Solid QB1 Option In Week 2

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray will look to lead his team to a bounce-back effort in Week 2 as they travel to Las Vegas. The dual-threat will take on the Raiders' defense that allowed 279 passing yards and three touchdowns in Week 1, so Murray is in a solid spot to put up strong fantasy […]

Javonte Williams Expected To Remain Primary Pass-Catching Back

Denver Broncos running back Javonte Williams ran the ball seven times for 43 yards (6.1 average per carry) in the Week 1 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. He also caught a whopping 11 passes, the second-most in franchise history for an RB in a single game. Nearly half of his receptions (five) came on screen […]

Eagles Defense Not A Great Fantasy Option In Week 2

The Philadelphia Eagles defense will face the Minnesota Vikings Monday night in their home opener. Philadelphia's defense disappointed for fantasy purposes in Week 1, surrendering 35 points to the Detroit Lions. They recorded only one sack but did return an interception for a touchdown. It was not enough to make them a good fantasy option, […]
