Fantasy Football Week 3 Busts? Players Who May Disappoint Include Dameon Pierce, Kyle Pitts, Rhamondre Stevenson, Justin Fields

I’ll admit, I was wrong about Puka Nacua. I listed the wide receiver as a bust in Week 2, thinking there was no way he would get anywhere close to the 10 catches and 119 yards he gathered in Week 1. Instead, Stafford peppered Nacua with 20 targets and the rookie now leads the league […]
