Patriots Defense - Week 2 Outlook For Fantasy Football

The New England Patriots defense/special teams will look to contain the Pittsburgh Steelers offense in Week 2. The over/under of 40.5 for Sunday's game is one of the lowest on the slate. New England's defense racked up three sacks and forced two fumbles but couldn't get Miami to turn the ball over in Week 1. […]

Nick Folk - Week 2 Outlook For Fantasy Football

New England Patriots kicker Nick Folk did not attempt a field goal and converted his lone extra-point try in the Week 1 loss to the Miami Dolphins.

Rhamondre Stevenson - Week 2 Outlook For Fantasy Football

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson should see an increased role in Week 2 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. New England placed top-catching running back Ty Montgomery (knee) on injured reserve earlier in the week. Stevenson should see an uptick in targets while Montgomery is sidelined. The 24-year-old rushed eight times for 25 yards and […]

Damien Harris - Week 2 Outlook For Fantasy Football

New England Patriots running back Damien Harris split the work out of the team's backfield with Rhamondre Stevenson in the Week 1 loss to the Miami Dolphins.

Week 2 NFL Stacks for DraftKings, FanDuel

However, none of my lineups had all the right pieces fit together, so I didn't have […]

Kendrick Bourne Could See An Increased Role

New England Patriots wide receiver Kendrick Bourne is likely to have an increased role going forward, according to Jeff Howe of The Athletic.
