Cleveland Defense Disappoints Vs. Houston

The Cleveland Browns defense turned in a disappointing effort in a 31-21 win over the Houston Texans in Week 2. While the final score doesn't look all that close, the Cleveland defense let the Texans keep the game competitive for the majority of the game, despite rookie quarterback Davis Mills taking over for the injured […]

Jameis Winston Intercepted Twice In Ugly Loss

New Orleans Saints quarterback Jameis Winston completed 11 of 22 passes for 111 yards, a rushing score, and two interceptions in Sunday's 26-7 loss to Carolina. Winston struggled all day against the Panthers' underrated defense, which chased him for four sacks and the two picks. The gunslinger didn't have much time to look downfield, as […]

Trey Sermon To Enter Concussion Protocol

San Francisco 49ers running back Trey Sermon (concussion) will enter the league's concussion protocol. After the rookie was a healthy scratch for Week 1, he was active on Sunday against Philadelphia to help fill the void caused by the absence of Raheem Mostert (knee), who recently underwent season-ending surgery. However, after newly anointed starter Elijah […]

Trey Sermon Sees Just One Carry In Week 2 Win

San Francisco 49ers running back Trey Sermon finished with just one carry for eight yards during Sunday's 17-11 Week 2 win over the Philadelphia Eagles. While Sermon was activated after not playing in Week 1, he saw only 1.5 percent of the rushing share and zero targets. This is certainly concerning for his value if […]

Shane McClanahan Strikes Out Seven, Saddled With The Loss

Tampa Bay Rays pitcher Shane McClanahan (9-6) allowed one earned run on two hits and two walks while striking out seven during Sunday's 2-0 loss to the Detroit Tigers. He was activated ahead of Sunday's start against the Tigers after spending the 10-day minimum on the injured list. The left-hander was brilliant on Sunday, limiting […]

JaMycal Hasty Sees Five Targets In Week 2 Win

San Francisco 49ers running back JaMycal Hasty carried five times for 38 yards and caught four of five targets for 21 yards during Sunday's 17-11 Week 2 win against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Pharaoh Brown Held Without A Catch In Week 2 Loss

Houston Texans tight end Pharaoh Brown saw just one target but was held without a catch in a Week 2 loss to the Browns.

Dalvin Cook Quickly Returns To Action

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook entered the injury tent but quickly returned against the Arizona Cardinals.

Danny Amendola Held To One Catch Sunday

Houston Texans wide receiver Danny Amendola caught one pass for nine yards in Sunday's 31-21 defeat at the hands of the Browns. Amendola had a solid debut in Week 1, hauling in five receptions and a touchdown- though he came back down to earth against Cleveland. The veteran wideout will be impossible to trust for […]

Elijah Mitchell Finishes With 53 Yards In Week 2 Win

San Francisco 49ers running back Elijah Mitchell carried 17 times for 42 yards and caught both of his targets for 11 yards in a 17-11 Week 2 win against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Chase McLaughlin Makes FG, Four Extra Points In Win

Cleveland Browns kicker Chase McLaughlin made a 30-yard field goal and added four extra points in a 31-21 win over the Houston Texans in Week 2. McLaughlin has yet to miss a kick through two weeks, hitting seven of seven extra points and his lone field-goal try. The veteran kicker is shaping up as a […]

Tyrod Taylor Won't Play Thursday

Houston Texans quarterback Tyrod Taylor (hamstring) suffered a hamstring injury against the Cleveland Browns. The veteran signal-caller will undergo an MRI tomorrow but has already been ruled out for the Texans' Thursday night matchup against the Carolina Panthers. Taylor played well in his first two games of the season, so this injury is extremely disappointing […]

Hunter Renfrow Has Another Solid Week For Raiders

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Hunter Renfrow had another productive week, tallying five receptions on seven targets for 57 yards in a 26-17 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Derek Carr rotated targeting his wide receivers pretty evenly on Sunday, but 27-year-old Renfrow is clearly emerging as one of his favorite new offensive weapons. Renfrow came […]

Jimmy Garoppolo Totals Two Touchdowns In Week 2 Win

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo completed 22 of 30 pass attempts for 189 yards and a touchdown while carrying 11 times for 20 yards and a rushing touchdown during Sunday's 17-11 Week 2 win over the Philadelphia Eagles.

Harrison Bryant Catches Four Balls

Cleveland Browns tight end Harrison Bryant caught all four of his targets for 49 yards in a 31-21 win over the Houston Texans in Week 2. With Cleveland losing Jarvis Landry to a knee injury in the first quarter, Bryant took on a larger role in the offense and finished second on the team in […]

Brandin Cooks Paces Team In Receiving

Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks hauled in nine of 14 targets for 78 yards and a touchdown in a 31-21 loss to the Browns. There were 28 total targets for the Texans as a team, and Cooks saw half of them, as no other pass-catcher garnered more than two looks. While he couldn't find […]

Nelson Agholor Barely Involved In Week 2

New England Patriots wide receiver Nelson Agholor made a splash during his team debut in Week 1. However, things quickly changed during his second game with New England. Agholor hauled in all three of his targets for 21 yards in the win over the New York Jets. The Patriots easily won this game because the […]

Trey Sermon Dealing With Head Injury

San Francisco 49ers running back Trey Sermon is dealing with a head injury suffered in his game against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Austin Hooper Catches Five Balls In Win

Cleveland Browns tight end Austin Hooper caught all five of his targets for 40 yards in a 31-21 win over the Houston Texans in Week 2. Hooper was pressed into a larger role after wideout Jarvis Landry injured his knee on the first drive of the game. The veteran responded, keeping the chains moving throughout […]

Jonnu Smith Makes Minimal Impact In Week 2

New England Patriots tight end Jonnu Smith was brought in this offseason to be an impact red-zone threat for this offense. However, he has failed to find the end zone in two games this season. In Week 2, Smith hauled in four of his five targets for 28 yards in the win over the New […]

Bears Defense Racks Up Splash Plays Against Bengals

The Chicago Bears defense bounced back in a big way in the team's 20-17 win over the Bengals in Week 2.

Phillip Lindsay Finds The End Zone In Week 2 Loss

Houston Texans running back Phillip Lindsay carried the ball five times for two rushing yards, adding a 22-yard touchdown reception in Sunday's loss to Cleveland.

Marquise Goodwin Catches One Pass

Chicago Bears wide receiver Marquise Goodwin caught one pass for 10 yards in the team's 20-17 Week 2 win over the Bengals. Goodwin led the team with 44 receiving yards Week 1 but the Bears, once again, struggled to move the ball vertically with consistency. Goodwin has top-end speed and could benefit if the Bears […]

Jakobi Meyers Remains Involved Versus Jets

New England Patriots wide receiver Jakobi Meyers saw nearly 10 targets during the season opener. His workload diminished a bit in Week 2, but Meyers remained involved in the offensive attack. He hauled in four of his six targets for 38 yards in the win over the New York Jets. The Patriots didn't need to […]

Cole Kmet Fails To Register Reception In Week 2

Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet did not catch a pass in the team's victory over the Bengals in Week 2. Kmet was targeted once, caught the pass for a first down, but was flagged for pass interference. The second-year tight end had an intriguing start to his season in Week 1 but the Bears […]

Demetric Felton Scores In Week 2

Cleveland Browns running back Demetric Felton made the most of his opportunities in a 31-21 win over the Houston Texans in Week 2. Felton caught both of his targets for 51 yards and a touchdown in the win. With the Browns down both Odell Beckham Jr. and Jarvis Landry due to injuries, Felton mixed in […]

Andy Dalton Believed To Have Avoided ACL Injury

Chicago Bears quarterback Andy Dalton (knee) missed a lot of time in his game against the Cincinnati Bengals, but is believed to have not suffered an ACL injury. Quarterback Justin Fields replaced Dalton following his injury and led the Bears to a win, but was certainly not flawless. If Dalton misses time, as long as Fields […]

Allen Robinson II Catches Touchdown

Chicago Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson II caught two passes for 24 yards with one touchdown in the Bears Week 2 win over the Bengals. Robinson got the Bears on the board on the first drive, catching an 11-yard pass from Andy Dalton to put the team up 7-0. The talented receiver saw only four […]

Hunter Henry Posts Another Quiet Game
