D.J. Moore Hauls In Six Passes In Week 1 Win

Carolina Panthers wide receiver D.J. Moore hauled in six of eight targets for 80 receiving yards while picking up 14 rushing yards on one carry in Sunday's 19-14 win over the Jets.

T.J. Hockenson Ammasses 97 Yards

Detroit Lions tight end T.J. Hockenson caught eight passes for 97 yards and one touchdown versus the San Francisco 49ers. The Lions No. 1 receiver on their depth chart is Tyrell Williams, and their depth isn't much prettier, so Hockenson is in for massive target numbers all year. The former No. 8 overall pick is […]

James Conner Sees 16 Carries, Can't Take Advantage

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner had 16 carries for 53 yards in the win against the Tennessee Titans. Conner saw more carries than Chase Edmonds, but he saw no targets in the passing game, which was expected. Although Conner saw 16 carries, he couldn't make much out of it. He saw multiple red-zone touches, […]

Tyler Bass Looks Sharp In Opener

Buffalo Bills kicker Tyler Bass continued where he left off last season. On Sunday, Bass knocked down all three of his field goal attempts.

Gabriel Davis Catches TD In Loss To Steelers

Jamaal Williams Finishes With 110 Yards

Detroit Lions running back Jamaal Williams started over D'Andre Swift and finished with 110 yards and one touchdown on 17 touches versus the San Francisco 49ers. Swift dealt with a groin injury throughout the preseason, so this isn't too surprising. However, Williams played consistently alongside Swift throughout the game. Both running backs had significant roles […]

Dawson Knox Snags All Four Targets

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox has been a forgotten man in the offense over the last season or so. The Bills have a stacked group of receivers, so often times Knox gets lost in the shuffle. However, he was able to produce a decent game against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 1. Knox hauled […]

Christian McCaffrey Totals 187 Scrimmage Yards

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey carried the ball 21 times for 98 rushing yards and caught all nine targets for 89 receiving yards in Sunday's win over the Jets.

Mekhi Becton Believed To Have Sprained MCL

New York Jets left tackle Mekhi Becton (knee) was carted off and appeared to be in a lot of pain in a game versus the Carolina Panthers. Given the circumstances, a sprained MCL warrants a huge sigh of relief for the Jets. The sophomore dominated in his rookie season and projects to be a huge […]

This was his first game with Buffalo and he was able to make a significant impact. Sanders hauled in four of his eight targets for 52 yards in the loss. The Steelers have a […]

Jared Cook Hauls In Five Passes In Week 1

Kirk Cousins Compiles Stats In Comeback Attempt

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins completed 36 of 49 passes for 351 yards and two touchdowns versus the Cincinnati Bengals. Entering the season, the narrative that the Vikings would try to relentlessly run the ball persisted, slightly devaluing their passing-game assets in drafts. In Week 1, Minnesota found themselves in need of a comeback and […]

Stefon Diggs Targeted 14 Times Versus Steelers

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs saw plenty of targets during the Week 1 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. He hauled in nine of his 14 targets for 69 yards in the 23-16 loss. Honestly, it could've been a bigger day for Diggs, assuming he would've caught at least one of his deep targets. Despite […]

Sam Darnold Accounts For Two Touchdowns In Win

Carolina Panthers quarterback Sam Darnold completed 24 of 35 passes for 279 yards and a touchdown while adding a rushing score in a 19-14 Week 1 win over the Jets.

Jalen Guyton Looks Like No. 3 Receiver In Week 1

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Jalen Guyton caught three of his five targets for 49 yards in a Week 1 victory versus the Washington Football Team.

Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson had a solid showing in Week 1 as he finished with 20 carries for 90 yards and added three receptions for 18 yards.

Devin Singletary Rushes For Over 70 Yards In Week 1

Buffalo Bills running back Devin Singletary was expected to see a significant workload with Zack Moss being scratched for Week 1 versus the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Heinicke completed 11-of-15 passes for 122 yards and one touchdown and added 17 rushing yards on three rushing attempts. If Fitzpatrick misses significant time, Heinicke could be worth […]

Adam Thielen Scores Two Red-Zone Touchdowns

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen scored two red-zone touchdowns with nine catches for 92 yards against the Cincinnati Bengals. The veteran wideout's younger counterpart Justin Jefferson dazzled as well, but this was Thielen's game. The 31-year-old was productive last season as well with 14 touchdowns, but with Jefferson's emergence, it seemed like there could […]

Terry McLaurin Catches Four Passes In Week 1

Washington Football Team wide receiver Terry McLaurin caught four passes for 62 yards in the season opener against the Los Angeles Chargers. The early departure of Ryan Fitzpatrick and the tough matchup contributed to the rough outing for the third-year wideout, but fantasy managers shouldn't start panicking just yet. If Fitzpatrick were to miss significant […]

Josh Allen Has Underwhelming Performance
