Patrick Mahomes Throws Pair Of Touchdowns Thursday Night

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes went 24-for-35 for 235 yards in Thursday's win over the Los Angeles Chargers. Mahomes threw a pair of touchdown passes.

Down and Out in Dallas - Fantasy Outlook for the Cowboys Without Dak Prescott

Los Angeles Chargers head coach Brandon Staley told reporters that Justin Herbert (abdomen) is "OK" after the quarterback sustained an injury late in Thursday night's loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.

Justin Herbert Shines In Week 2 Loss, Sustains Injury Late

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert was excellent for fantasy yet again in Thursday night's loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, completing 33 of 48 pass attempts for 334 yards, three touchdowns, and one interception. The interception was a costly one as it was thrown at the Chiefs' three yard line and returned for a […]

Derek Carr Looks To Rebound In Week 2

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr will look to put together a better performance in Week 2 against the Arizona Cardinals. Carr turned the ball over three times while taking five sacks in the Raiders season opener, leading to a sub-par fantasy output. He will look to bounce back against a Cardinals defense that just […]

Corey Linsley Questionable To Return Thursday

Los Angeles Chargers offensive lineman Corey Linsley (knee) is questionable to return in Thursday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs. He suffered a knee injury during the second quarter and did not come out with the team during the second half. The 31-year-old logged the major of snaps before injuring his knee. Linsley controls many […]

Daniel Jones Set Up For Decent Matchup Against Panthers

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones is scheduled to play the Carolina Panthers in Week 2.

[…]

Mac Jones Not Practicing Thursday

New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones (illness, back) is not practicing on Thursday due to an illness, but NFL Network's Tom Pelissero writes that it's his understanding that it's not believed to be COVID-19-related. Jones had an upset stomach, so they decided to give him the day off. The 24-year-old second-year signal-caller dealt with back […]

Dak Prescott A Week Away From Activities

Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy said that quarterback Dak Prescott (thumb) is at least seven to 10 days away from doing anything. "He needs to heal right now," McCarthy said.

David Bakhtiari Limited Wednesday

Green Bay Packers left tackle David Bakhtiari (knee) was listed as a limited participant on the Packers' injury report Wednesday. The All-Pro tackle missed Week 1 as he continued to recover from a torn ACL in his left knee in January 2021. He will look to be a full participant in practice on Thursday or […]

NFL DFS Value Plays for Week 2 on FanDuel and DraftKings

It's hard to believe that Week 2 of the NFL season is here already.

Is Mac Jones Hurt or Healthy? Is Mac Jones Playing in Week 2 for Fantasy Football?

New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones was apparently dealing with a back injury in the Week 1 loss to the Miami Dolphins.

What's Gotten Into Washington? Commanders Fantasy Football Outlooks

Not only did the Washington Commanders win their game against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 1, but their skill players also had good fantasy performances as well.

Is Carson Wentz A Good Fantasy Football Pickup for Week 2? Waiver Wire Outlook

Carson Wentz played just like Carson Wentz does in Week 1. Wentz had his moments of brilliance where he showed why he was drafted second overall in the 2016 NFL draft.

Jacoby Brissett's Week 2 Outlook For Fantasy Football

Cleveland Browns quarterback Jacoby Brissett played mistake-free football in his Week 1 debut with his new team, although he finished with just 147 passing yards and one touchdown.
