Brandon Aiyuk - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News

Updated Week 1 fantasy football wide receiver (WR) rankings for PPR leagues. Win your 2024 fantasy matchups with our Week 1 WR fantasy football rankings.

After a long offseason, the 2024 NFL campaign is just a few days away! Whether you have already drafted your fantasy football team or are checking Week 1 ranking before drafting, our updated Week 1 wide receiver (WR) fantasy football rankings for the 2024 season will assist you in making start-or-sit decisions or identifying players who should get out to hot starts.

Key wideouts such as Marquise Brown (shoulder) and DeAndre Hopkins (knee) are dealing with injuries, so those situations will need to be closely monitored over the next few days. Our rankings factor in the latest injury news and depth chart updates coming out of the preseason. So let's see where key wide receivers such as Marvin Harrison Jr., Rashee Rice, Brandon Aiyuk, Chris Godwin, Terry McLaurin, Tank Dell, Garrett Wilson, and George Pickens rank for Week 1.

Our PPR fantasy football wide receiver rankings are put together by Nick Mariano. In addition to our staff WR rankings, below you will also find a summary of the important fantasy football injury news for Week 1. There are always critical injuries to keep track of, so check back until kickoff. Good luck in Week 1 RotoBallers, let's win some leagues!

Editor's Note: The FFPC Playoff Challenge #2 is back with a massive $100,000 grand prize and $203,250 total prize pool, paying down to 100th place. Here's the deal: no salary cap, no draft, no pickups, no subs. Choose 8 players, and as NFL teams get knocked out so will your players, so choose your team wisely. The entries will sell out quickly, and registrations will close on Saturday January 17th at 4:30 pm ET . Don't wait - get your team now and end your fantasy football season with a shot at $100,000!
