Week 2 NFL Stacks for DraftKings, FanDuel

It was a decent start to the NFL season for me from a DFS prognostication standpoint. My Jalen Hurts-to-A.J. Brown advice was sound, Miami’s passing attack played well, Michael Thomas looked strong, and Saquon Barkley ended up exceeding expectations. However, none of my lineups had all the right pieces fit together, so I didn't have […]

New York Giants wide receiver Kadarius Toney (hamstring) was added to the injury report this week after getting in a limited practice session on Thursday.

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.
