Robert Tonyan Has TE1 Appeal In Week 3

Green Bay Packers tight end Robert Tonyan will have a favorable matchup in Week 3 against the 49ers. After a dismal Week 1 performance (among many other Packers offensive players), Tonyan bounced back with 52 yards and one touchdown last week against the Lions. That same Detroit team utilized tight end T.J. Hockenson in Week […]

Kenneth Gainwell Looks To Keep It Up In Week 3

Philadelphia Eagles rookie running back Kenneth Gainwell will get his first taste of the Eagles-Cowboys rivalry and of Monday Night Football at the same time in Week 3. Gainwell has been the only running back besides Miles Sanders to get any touches through the first two weeks of this season. He's turned 15 rushing attempts […]

Diontae Johnson Misses Practice On Wednesday

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson (knee) did not participate in his team's Wednesday practice. Johnson injured his knee on the final play of his team's 26-17 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 2 and needed assistance leaving the field. Reports indicate that Johnson's knee injury is not as bad as it looked, […]

Marquez Valdes-Scantling Not A Fantasy Option Right Now

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling will take on a 49ers defense Sunday night that currently has allowed the fourth fewest fantasy points to receivers through two games. After being lauded in training camp, Valdes-Scantling's regular season has landed with a thud. The 26-year-old has seen 12 targets through the first two weeks but […]

Miles Sanders A Decent Starting Option In Week 3

Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders makes for a decent starting option in Week 3 lineups. The Eagles will take on the division-rival Dallas Cowboys in Week 3's Monday Night Football game, where Sanders will be a solid RB2. He's run the ball 28 times for 129 yards and added five catches for 43 more […]

Randall Cobb Lacks Fantasy Appeal

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Randall Cobb will face a 49ers defense that currently is allowing the fourth fewest fantasy points to opposing receivers. Cobb has been targeted only four times through the first two games and has three receptions for 58 yards. Quarterback Aaron Rodgers has found Cobb for some productive plays but the […]

Ben Roethlisberger Does Not Practice Wednesday

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (pectoral) did not practice on Wednesday after he sustained an injury during his team's Week 2 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders. The veteran quarterback is reportedly feeling some pain when he throws as the Steelers gear up to face off against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 3. If Roethlisberger […]

Allen Lazard Hopes To Bounce Back

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard will try to find a role in the offense Week 3 against the 49ers. Lazard did not receive a target in the team's bounce back win over the Lions in Week 2 and has only two receptions for 16 yards through two games. The 49ers defense currently is […]

Odell Beckham Jr. A Full Go At Practice Wednesday

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (knee) will be a "full go" in practice on Wednesday, according to head coach Kevin Stefanski. Unlikely early last week, Stefanski is not ruling out Beckham from making his season debut in Week 3 against the Chicago Bears. Cleveland will continue to evaluate and be extra cautious with […]

Dak Prescott Looks To Rebound In Week 3

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott will look to rebound in Week 3 against the division-rival Philadelphia Eagles. Prescott was outstanding in Week 1 before being mostly shut down by the Chargers defense in Week 2. The Eagles defense is allowing the third fewest points to opposing quarterbacks through two weeks of play, but they haven't […]

Davante Adams An Easy WR1 Play

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams will take on the 49ers Sunday night in Week 3. After a quiet (by his standards) Week 1, Adams bounced back with eight catches for 121 yards last week against the Lions. Adams scored 18 touchdowns last season and will try and find the end zone for the […]

Jalen Hurts A Good Week 3 Starter

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is a solid choice in Week 3 starting lineups. In what should be a high-scoring game against the rival Dallas Cowboys, Hurts should be able to put up plenty of fantasy points. He's averaging just over 25 fantasy points per week through the first two weeks of this season, and […]

Tyrell Williams Ruled Out For Week 3

Detroit Lions wide receiver Tyrell Williams (concussion) has been ruled out for Week 3 against the Baltimore Ravens. Williams suffered a head injury in the season opener and was held out of the Week 2 loss to the Green Bay Packers. It's a bad sign that the 29-year-old is being ruled out so early in […]

A.J. Dillon Not Worth A Week 3 Fantasy Start

Green Bay Packers running back A.J. Dillon will continue to serve as backup to teammate Aaron Jones Week 3 against the 49ers. Dillon is talented but is clearly the RB2 in the offense, especially after Jones exploded for four touchdowns last week. Green Bay will face a 49ers defense that currently is allowing the fourth […]

Phil Kessel Out 2-3 Weeks With Foot Injury

Arizona Coyotes forward Phil Kessel will miss the start of training camp due to a foot injury that is expected to sideline him for two to three weeks. The 33-year-old reportedly showed up to the team's media day in a walking boot. Kessel, coming off a fairly strong second season in Arizona, posted 43 points […]

Can Aaron Jones Repeat Week 2 Success?

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones will face a 49ers defense in Week 3 that has struggled to bottle up opposing running backs through the first two games. After a terrible fantasy performance in the season opener, Jones exploded for four touchdowns against the Lions last week. Now he will face a 49ers defense […]

Trey Sermon To Be Limited In Practice

San Francisco 49ers rookie running back Trey Sermon (concussion) will be limited in practice on Wednesday after suffering a concussion in his first career NFL game in the Week 2 win over the Philadelphia Eagles. Sermon is trending in the right direction ahead of the Sunday night game against the Green Bay Packers in Week […]

Aaron Rodgers A QB1 Play Against 49ers

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers will take on the 49ers Sunday night in Week 3. After a horrid season opener, Rodgers bounced back with 255 passing yards and four touchdowns against the Packers in Week 2.

Elijah Mitchell Won't Practice Wednesday

San Francisco 49ers rookie running back Elijah Mitchell (shoulder) will not practice on Wednesday. Mitchell's shoulder injury in the Week 2 win over the Philadelphia Eagles turned out to be what head coach Kyle Shanahan said was a little worse than a stinger. Mitchell managed to return to the game last Sunday and saw the […]

K.J. Osborn's Arrow Pointing Up

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver K.J. Osborn is off to a strong start to his season heading into the team's Week 3 matchup against the Seahawks.

Justin Jefferson On Cusp Of Breakout Game

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson will be looking to bust out with a monster game Week 3 against the Seahawks. Jefferson has totaled 11 receptions on 19 targets for 136 yards with one touchdown through the first two games. Those are solid numbers but the second-year receiver is inching closer to a monster performance. […]

Can Adam Thielen Keep Touchdown Streak Alive?

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen will try and extend his 2021 touchdown streak to three games this Sunday against the Seahawks. Thielen is off to a fast start, catching 15 passes on 17 targets for 131 yards with three touchdowns and will face a Seahawks secondary that has been generous in the passing game […]

Dalvin Cook Gets Fantastic Matchup Against Seattle

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook will have a very juicy matchup against the Seahawks in Week 3. Seattle is coming off getting absolutely destroyed for 237 total yards and three touchdowns by the Titans Derrick Henry last week. Cook is just as dangerous and dynamic of a player and already has 252 all-purpose yards […]

Kirk Cousins Has A Chance To Keep Rolling In Week 3

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins will try and get his team into the win column Week 3 against the Seahawks. The Vikings are 0-2 but the team's offense has been highly productive during that span. Cousins has passed for 595 yards with five touchdowns, zero interceptions and a 71.6% completion percentage through the first two […]

Logan Gilbert (SP, SEA) - Week 26 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED IN: 40% of leagues ANALYSIS: With all the injuries to starting pitchers across the league, it's simply mind-boggling that Seattle Mariners rookie starting pitcher Logan Gilbert isn't almost universally rostered. The 6'6" right-hander has been coasting through September. Wherever that rookie wall is, he's not showing any signs […]

Amon-Ra St. Brown Not Worth The Gamble

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown will go up against a Ravens secondary that has struggled through the first two weeks of the season. The rookie came into the regular season as a player to watch as the coaching staff consistently praised St. Brown for an excellent training camp. But that buzz has fizzled […]

Quintez Cephus' Value On The Rise

Detroit Lions wide receiver Quintez Cephus should get another chance to step up and make some plays Week 3 against the Ravens. Cephus' snap count saw quite an increase in Week 2 against the Packers with lead receiver Tyrell Williams (concussion) on the sidelines. The second-year receiver responded with four receptions for 63 yards with […]
