Terrace Marshall Jr. Tough To Trust Despite Good Matchup

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Terrace Marshall Jr. gets a good matchup against Houston in Week 3. Marshall has been the team's third wideout, playing at least 50 percent of the snaps each week and seeing a season-high six targets in Week 1. However, the production just hasn't been there yet, as the rookie receiver has […]

Antonio Gibson Limited In Practice Wednesday

Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson (shoulder) was listed as a limited participant in practice on Wednesday ahead of the Week 3 matchup against the Buffalo Bills.

He's slashing just .208/.312/.433 over […]

Trey Mancini Getting Another Breather On Wednesday

Baltimore Orioles first baseman/outfielder Trey Mancini is out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies. This will be his third time on the bench over the last five games. Wednesday's game is at a national league park so the Orioles don't have a designated hitter spot, though Mancini did play first […]

D.J. Moore Should Be Started With Confidence In Week 3

Carolina Panthers wide receiver D.J. Moore gets a great matchup against the Texans on Thursday night. Moore has operated as the team's undisputed top wideout through two weeks, hauling in 14 of 19 targets for 159 yards with one touchdown while playing at least 80 percent of the snaps in each of his first two […]

Shane Bieber Set To Return On Friday

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Shane Bieber (shoulder) will return to the rotation for Friday's game against the Chicago White Sox.

Cowboys Defense Could Be Decent In Week 3

The Dallas Cowboys defense could be a solid choice in some Week 3 lineups.

They held the Chargers to just 17 points while recording two sacks and two interceptions […]

Greg Zuerlein Looks For A More Consistent Week 3

Dallas Cowboys kicker Greg Zuerlein had a bad Week 1 but followed it up with a strong performance in Week 2. The Cowboys added a kicker to their practice squad this week though, perhaps putting pressure on their starter to kick like he did against the Chargers and not like he did against the Bucs. […]

Dalton Schultz Not A Good Week 3 Tight End Option

Dallas Cowboys tight end Dalton Schultz is not a strong starting option in Week 3 lineups. Schultz and Blake Jarwin have been sharing the field while the Cowboys run their offense through their running backs and wide receivers, leaving little for the tight ends outside of blocking and some short gains over the middle. Through […]

Nelson Cruz Dealing With An Illness

Tampa Bay Rays designated hitter Nelson Cruz was left out of the starting lineup for the second straight day on Wednesday. He is currently feeling "under the weather," according to Rays manager Kevin Cash. Austin Meadows went on to draw his second consecutive start at designated hitter for the Wednesday's game. Cash said that Cruz […]

Blake Jarwin Not A Good Starting Option In Week 3

Dallas Cowboys tight end Blake Jarwin is not a strong starting option despite a projected high-scoring game in Week 3. The Cowboys offense has run through the running backs and wide receivers, with the tight ends just around to block and occasionally move the chains. Through the first two weeks, there have been no big […]

Christian McCaffrey Could Have Monster Game Thursday Night

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey is poised for a monster game in Week 3 against the Texans.

D.K. Metcalf Is A WR1 In Week 3

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver D.K. Metcalf is one of the most incredible physical specimens in the NFL, but he isn't off to as hot of a start as his teammate Tyler Lockett. However, he could gain some ground in Week 3 against the Minnesota Vikings. The Vikings don't have the secondary to slow down a […]

Tyler Lockett Could Be In For A Big Week 3

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett is the WR2 in PPR leagues entering Week 3, and he has a great matchup that could move him into the top spot against the Minnesota Vikings. Lockett has scored three touchdowns in two games, and he's only 22 yards shy of 300 on the year. The Vikings have […]

Chris Carson Is An RB2 In Week 3

Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson found the end zone a couple of times in Week 2, and he'll be looking to add some more yardage to his totals in Week 3 against the Minnesota Vikings. The Vikings have surrendered only one touchdown to running backs thus far, and they're allowing them to run for […]

Russell Wilson Primed To Score Big In Week 3

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson is the QB7 after two weeks, and he's primed to jump up into the top five in Week 3 against the Minnesota Vikings. The Vikings are allowing the fourth-most fantasy points to quarterbacks thus far with an average of 25.87 points per game. That's just above Wilson's average through two […]

Jason Myers Should Be Busy In Week 3

Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers just needs a field goal or two to really boost his fantasy day in Week 3 against the Minnesota Vikings. Myers is 8-for-9 on his kicking attempts so far this season, with the lone extra-point miss coming in Week 2. The Vikings are giving up an average of 30.5 points […]
