Malcolm Brown Comes Down To Earth In Week 2

Los Angeles Rams running back Malcolm Brown was unable to replicate his impressive performance from Week 1 against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 2. He finished with 11 carries for 47 yards on the afternoon. He was efficient, but he was unable to get into the end zone to achieve much fantasy value for the […]

Chase Claypool Scores First NFL TD

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Chase Claypool caught all three of his targets for 88 yards and a touchdown in a 26-21 win over the Denver Broncos in Week 2. Claypool's touchdown grab was the first of his short NFL career and came on a beautiful deep pass from Ben Roethlisberger down the left sideline. Claypool […]

Cole Beasley Remains Consistent

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Cole Beasley has been productive during the first two weeks of the regular season. He is third on the depth chart, but has found a way to continue making plays each week. Beasley hauled in five of his six targets for 70 yards in the Week 2 victory over the Miami […]

John Brown Finds The End Zone Again

Buffalo Bills wide receiver John Brown has been overlooked because of the performance of Stefon Diggs, but made his presence known in Week 2.

Mike Evans Erupts For 104 Yards And A Touchdown

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans hauled in seven of a team-high 10 targets for 104 yards and a touchdown. With teammate Chris Godwin (head) out and head coach Bruce Arians basically guaranteeing his other star wideout would get the ball- Evans was in a smash spot and he delivered. He connected with Tom […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster Catches Seven Balls

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster caught seven of his eight targets for 48 yards in a 26-21 win over the Denver Broncos in Week 2. While the seven catches were nice, Smith-Schuster's 6.9 yards per catch is not what fantasy gamers were looking for out of their WR1. To make matters worse, Smith-Schuster watched […]

Greg Zuerlein Makes Two Field Goals And Four Extra Points

Dallas Cowboys kicker Greg Zuerlein made all six of his kicking attempts in Week 2, including four extra points and two field goals. One of the field goals was a game-winner from 46 yards out, giving the Cowboys an improbable 40-39 win after being down 20-0 at the end of the first quarter. Zuerlein's other […]

Stefon Diggs Tops Over 150 Yards

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs was a tough man to slow down during the Week 2 victory over the Miami Dolphins. Diggs hauled in eight of his 13 targets for 153 receiving yards and one touchdown. Quarterback Josh Allen did miss Diggs a few times, but made up for it. During that game, Diggs […]

Dallas Cowboys tight end Dalton Schultz led the team in targets with 10 in a Week 2 win over the Atlanta Falcons. He caught nine of those passes for 88 yards and a touchdown. After starting tight end Blake Jarwin went down with a knee injury in Week 1, it was assumed the Cowboys would […]

Gerald Meerschaert Suffers Huge Knockout Defeat

The most seasoned veteran opponent of young Khamzat Chimaeuv's career, Gerald Meerschaert (31-14), was unable to put up any kind of test, getting knocked out in 17 seconds of the very first round. There is not much here to evaluate on Meerscharert's side. He ate a huge right cross up the middle, and it knocked […]

Christian McCaffrey To Have MRI Monday

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey (ankle) will have an MRI to discover the severity of the ankle injury he sustained in his team's loss to the Buccaneers. McCaffrey was on the sideline and wasn't ruled out, though he never returned to the game. The team is optimistic that it's not too serious, though the […]

Michael Gallup Catches Just Two Passes In Week 2

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup only caught two passes in a Week 2 comeback win over the Atlanta Falcons. He was able to gain 58 yards and was targeted five times in a game where quarterback Dak Prescott made 47 throws. Gallup was well behind wide receivers CeeDee Lamb and Amari Cooper, who each […]

Darius Slayton Has Quiet Sunday Versus Bears

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton caught 3-of-6 targets for 33 yards in a loss to the Bears on Sunday. It was a disappointing game for Slayton after his huge game in Week 1, however, his fantasy stock is still trending up. With Sterling Shepard (toe) and Saquon Barkley (knee) exiting with injuries, more […]

Amari Cooper Gains An Even 100 Yards In Week 2

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper caught six passes in an impressive Week 2 comeback win, gaining an even 100 yards. Cooper tied with rookie CeeDee Lamb for the lead among wide receivers with nine targets, both falling one behind tight end Dalton Schultz's 10. It was a strong performance from Cooper and the entire […]

Luke Voit Increases Home Run Lead To Three

New York Yankees first baseman Luke Voit clubbed his 21st home run of the season on Sunday, widening his league-wide lead in home runs to three. Voit has been spectacular this season despite a nagging foot injury, and his performance has been well-supported by a .628 xSLG. Voit’s 27% HR:FB is probably unsustainable given that […]

Zack Moss Slowed Down By Dolphins

Buffalo Bills running back Zack Moss wasn't able to find much room to run during the Week 2 win over the Miami Dolphins. He rushed eight times for 37 yards and did not catch any passes at all. He continues to split up the carries with Devin Singletary. The fact they split the carries will […]

Golden Tate Catches Five Passes Versus Bears

New York Giants wide receiver Golden Tate caught all five of his targets for 47 yards in a loss to the Bears on Sunday. Unfortunately for Tate, the story of his game will be a costly pass interference penalty in the red zone as time was expiring. Other than that, however, Tate looked good after […]

Parris Campbell Avoids Torn ACL, To Have MRI Tomorrow

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Parris Campbell (knee) did not tear his ACL in his team's Week 2 win over the Vikings. Campbell suffered a knee injury on a carry in the first quarter and was carted off the field. The team believes it's not a torn ACL, but Campbell will have an MRI on Monday […]

Devin Singletary Goes Over 50 Yards In Victory

Buffalo Bills running back Devin Singletary had a fairly decent game on the ground during the Week 2 victory over the Miami Dolphins. Singletary rushed 10 times for 56 yards and hauled in two receptions for 20 yards. He continues to split up the carries with rookie Zack Moss, but both of them saw action […]

CeeDee Lamb Leads The Cowboys In Receiving In Week 2

This marks the second straight week where fantasy gamers saw Johnson lead Pittsburgh in targets as he has […]

Derrick Henry Held In Check Against Jaguars

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry ran for 84 yards on 25 rush attempts during Sunday's 33-30 win against the Jaguars. He was also targeted twice in the passing game but recorded zero receptions. Combining Sunday's final statistics with Henry's Week 1 performance (3.7 YPC), the star running back is off to an inefficient start […]

Marvin Jones Jr. Musters Only 23 Yards

Detroit Lions wide receiver Marvin Jones Jr. caught only four passes for 23 yards in the Lions disappointing 42-21 loss to the Packers in Week 2. Jones Jr. has been tasked with stepping up his play with star receiver Kenny Golladay sidelined but has failed to elevate his game through two weeks. The Packers offense […]

Giants Defense Records Four Sacks, Two Picks

The New York Giants Defense looked like it was in for a long afternoon after giving up 17 points in the first half at Chicago. The unit found it's footing however and allowed nothing in the second half and were able to pick up four sacks and two interceptions to give the team a chance […]

Adrian Peterson Held To 41 Rushing Yards

Detroit Lions running back Adrian Peterson carried the ball seven times for 41 yards in the team's 42-21 loss to the Packers in Week 2. The future Hall of Famer ripped off a 25-yard run early in the game but the running game was erased after the Packers built a multiple-score lead in the second […]

Tony Pollard Gets Three Touches In Week 2

Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard only got three touches in Week 2. It was one touch less than the four he received in Week 1. Pollard continues to work as Ezekiel Elliott's direct backup and has league-winning upside if anything happens to Elliott, but has very little if any stand-alone fantasy value. He should […]

Benny Snell Jr. Returns To Backup Role In Week 2

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Benny Snell Jr. returned to a backup role behind James Conner in a 26-21 win over the Denver Broncos in Week 2. Snell carried the ball just three times for five yards, lost a fumble, and lost four yards on his lone reception. It was a rough outing for the second-year […]

Deivi Garcia Allows Six Runs On Sunday
