New York Giants kicker
Graham Gano is a possible fantasy option for Week 2 against the Dallas Cowboys, depending on your league. Gano was responsible for all six of the Giants' points in Week 1, making both of his field goal attempts, including a long of 52 yards, for 8 fantasy points. This puts him in a decent position among fantasy kickers, especially since he has a 100% field goal percentage so far. His opportunities for scoring could increase against a Dallas team that gave up 11 fantasy points to kickers in Week 1 of the 2025 season. Given the Giants' offensive struggles and Gano's reliable leg, he should be considered for Week 2.

The Seattle Seahawks defense/special teams performed at a high level in Week 1 against the San Francisco 49ers. They draw the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 2, who just hung 34 points on the New York Jets. The Steelers are riding high on that victory, but Week 2 should be a lower-scoring affair. The Seahawks' defensive unit harassed 49ers quarterback
Brock Purdy all day last weekend. They picked him off twice and realistically could have made it a third on Purdy's go-ahead touchdown pass. Many NFL fans came into this season skeptical of the Steelers' offense. Their Week 1 production was encouraging, but the Seahawks' defense looks like one of the elite units in the NFL. With a great ability to rush the passer and fantastic players in the secondary, a 41-year-old
Aaron Rodgers could struggle in this game. However, the absence of safety Nick Emmanwori (ankle) and cornerback Devon Witherspoon (knee) is notable this week, making the Seahawks D/ST check in as a borderline starting option.

New York Giants quarterback
Jaxson Dart is not a recommended fantasy option for Week 2 against the Dallas Cowboys, as he is not expected to play. Although the rookie first-round draft pick has impressed in the preseason and is the team's QB2, head coach Brian Daboll has publicly stated that
Russell Wilson will remain the starter for Sunday's game. There is some speculation that Dart could see action if Wilson struggles, but given that he has no regular-season statistics for 2025, his fantasy outlook is entirely dependent on an in-game change. Therefore, Dart should be left on the bench or waiver wire for this matchup.

New York Giants tight end
Theo Johnson is not a recommended fantasy start for Week 2 against the Dallas Cowboys. He was the TE49 in fantasy football for Week 1, securing just one of his three targets for five receiving yards and one fantasy point. This meager production, despite dominating the tight-end snaps with 46, makes him an unreliable option. Furthermore, the Cowboys' defense was a difficult matchup for tight ends in 2024, ranking second in the league by allowing only 7.66 fantasy points per game to the position. Given the tough matchup and Johnson's minimal usage and production in Week 1, he should be left on the bench in all formats.

New York Giants running back
Cam Skattebo is not a recommended fantasy start for Week 2, despite facing a favorable matchup. Skattebo was the RB58 in Week 1, with a minimal role, receiving only two carries for -3 yards and two receptions for 12 yards, totaling just 1.9 fantasy points on an 11.8% timeshare. While the Dallas Cowboys' defense was the 23rd-ranked fantasy defense against running backs in 2024 and gave up 158 rushing yards in Week 1, Skattebo is simply not seeing the volume to capitalize on the opportunity. His primary role appears to be as a depth and short-yardage option behind
Tyrone Tracy Jr., which severely caps his fantasy upside.

The New Orleans Saints defense/special teams recorded five sacks and allowed 20 points in Week 1 against the Arizona Cardinals. While the sack total was a pleasant surprise, it shouldn't be expected consistently with a defensive front led by 34-year-old Cameron Jordan. They face
Mac Jones in Week 2 instead of
Brock Purdy (toe), but still have to contend with
Christian McCaffrey and remain without Chase Young (calf). Ranked 28th of 32 defenses this week, the Saints are best left off fantasy rosters.

New Orleans Saints kicker
Blake Grupe went 2-for-3 on field goals and 1-for-1 on extra points in the Week 1 loss to the Arizona Cardinals. His only miss came in the third quarter on a 37-yard attempt following a 14-play drive, while he converted from 36 and 28 yards. Grupe is a reliable kicker, but the Saints' offense, led by quarterback
Spencer Rattler, may struggle to move the ball consistently. He ranks 21st among kickers on RotoBaller this week.

New York Giants running back
Tyrone Tracy Jr. had a lackluster Week 1, but his fantasy outlook improves considerably heading into a favorable Week 2 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. As the RB39 in Week 1, Tracy managed only 4.5 fantasy points with 24 rushing yards and 11 receiving yards, but he dominated the backfield with a 66.2% timeshare. This heavy workload, combined with the Cowboys' defensive struggles against the run, makes him an intriguing play. Dallas allowed a whopping 158 rushing yards in Week 1, the fifth-most in the NFL, and was the 23rd-ranked fantasy defense against running backs last season, giving up 22.67 fantasy points per game. Given the potential for a high-volume day, Tracy has a chance to deliver RB2 numbers.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver
Rashid Shaheed was the team's third-most productive pass catcher in Week 1 against the Arizona Cardinals, finishing with six receptions for 33 yards on nine targets. His longest catch was just 17 yards, but his speed and explosiveness give him real big-play potential. With Kellen Moore's offense passing aggressively, Shaheed could turn his volume into a breakout performance and projects as a WR4 with upside this week against the 49ers.

Despite heading to the medical tent twice, New Orleans Saints wide receiver
Chris Olave led the team with 13 targets, turning them into seven receptions for 54 yards in Sunday's loss to the Arizona Cardinals. Kellen Moore's offense appeared aggressive, as quarterback
Spencer Rattler attempted a career-high 46 passes in Week 1. This bodes well for the fourth-year receiver, who looks poised to become a go-to target in the pass-heavy attack. Olave should have plenty of opportunities to build chemistry with Rattler and, as long as he remains healthy, projects as a borderline WR2/WR3 this week against the San Francisco 49ers.

New Orleans Saints running back
Kendre Miller saw limited action in Week 1 but made the most of it, rushing five times for 24 yards. The Saints ran the ball just 22 times while
Spencer Rattler threw 46 passes, and Miller was on the field for only 11 offensive snaps. Rookie
Devin Neal, who played seven snaps and carried the ball twice, could further limit Miller's role. While he showed flashes of explosiveness against the Cardinals, the Saints' likely pass-heavy approach means Miller can remain on waivers until his usage increases.

New Orleans Saints running back
Alvin Kamara rushed 11 times for 45 yards and one touchdown in Week 1 against the Arizona Cardinals. Surprisingly, he saw limited action in the passing game despite
Spencer Rattler's career-high 46 pass attempts, catching just two targets for 12 yards. Despite this, Kamara showed he still has plenty left in the tank. He looks poised to be effective again against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 2 and should see an increased workload as a pass-catcher. He remains a high-upside RB2 this week.

New York Giants quarterback
Russell Wilson had a tough Week 1, but he has an encouraging fantasy outlook heading into his Week 2 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. Wilson was the QB23 in fantasy after mustering only 12.8 fantasy points against the Commanders, throwing for 168 yards and zero touchdowns. However, the Cowboys' defense allowed 24.4 fantasy points to
Jalen Hurts in Week 1 and was the 32nd-ranked fantasy defense against quarterbacks last year, giving up 19.6 fantasy points per game. Wilson's 44 rushing yards in the opener, combined with the Cowboys allowing 62 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns to Hurts, suggest he has a solid floor and a potential for a major bounce-back performance in this favorable matchup.

New Orleans Saints quarterback
Spencer Rattler went 27-of-46 for 214 yards with no touchdowns in Week 1 against the Arizona Cardinals, adding 29 rushing yards on four attempts. Despite the volume, his 4.7 yards per pass attempt was inefficient, and the 46 throws marked a career high. He faces a tough matchup at home against the San Francisco 49ers, who allowed just 150 passing yards to
Sam Darnold and the Seahawks in Week 1. Rattler remains off fantasy radars for Week 2 and will need a more efficient showing to keep his starting role.

San Francisco 49ers running back
Brian Robinson Jr. may see an uptick in usage when the team faces the Saints on Sunday. With quarterback
Brock Purdy (toe, shoulder) out, wide receiver
Jauan Jennings (shoulder) questionable, and tight end
George Kittle (hamstring) on injured reserve, San Francisco is short on playmakers. In Week 2, San Francisco may prefer to grind things out on the ground now that
Mac Jones is under center. If that's the case, Robinson should mix in regularly in order to avoid overworking
Christian McCaffrey (31 touches in Week 1). Robinson projects as an RB4 in Week 2. While he is not a must-start, he is a viable flex in deeper leagues and should be rostered in most leagues.
