With Isiah Pacheco (leg) on IR, Perine should see more work going forward, but it feels unlikely that the veteran will see enough work to make him a viable starter for your fantasy lineups. After Pacheco got injured last week vs. the Bengals, Carson Steele operated as the Chiefs’ top back, with seven carries – […]

While Cooper’s ($6,100) numbers have been poor thus far, this Sunday’s matchup with the Giants is a potential spot for the receiver to come alive. New York’s defense has struggled at defending the pass this season, allowing the fourth most yards per pass in the NFL. The Giants’ coverage grade ranks 20th on PFF, and […]

George Pickens ($5,700) has seen great usage this season and has been the Steelers’ clear No.1 receiving option. Through the first two weeks of the season, Pickens has led Pittsburgh with a 27.5% target share, and his aDOT has been at a solid 12.5. However, Pickens only averages 9.2 FPTS per game and ranks fourth […]

UPDATE: On Saturday, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported there is optimism for Herbert to start Sunday at Pittsburgh, despite his ankle injury. However, he will have to test the injury ahead of the game. Justin Herbert ($5,700) is currently dealing with an ankle injury. It wasn’t initially believed to be serious; however, on Friday, it […]

Ty Chandler should be a priority on the waiver this week for Jones owners. The veteran has been the starter for the Vikings thus far, but Chandler has seen a sizable role behind him, logging 34.9% of the snaps. Plus, after being out carried by Jones 14-8 in Week 1, it was a much more […]

Jordan Spieth had wrist surgery and in August, but the former Masters champion told Golf Week that his goal is to be tournament ready for January 1, 2025. Spieth is looking to get back on track after a disappointing season by his standards in 2024, in which he made 13-of-24 cuts and only produced three […]

The Saints and Eagles go head-to-head in New Orleans this Sunday and the opening line for this contest had Philadelphia as a 3.5-point favorite on the DraftKings Sportsbook. However, this line has massively moved in the other direction, with the Saints now as 1.5-point favorites. All odds provided by DraftKings Sportsbook and all odds subject to change. […]

Allen is an excellent waiver wire target for Week 3, especially if you have Hall on your fantasy football roster. After logging only 18% of the snaps in his NFL debut in Week 1, Allen played 35% of the snaps in Week 2 and made some serious noise in the road win over the Titans. […]

Without a doubt, Hunter Henry is a must-add on the Week 3 waiver wire. After finishing 19th in DraftKings points among tight ends last season, Henry ranks third following the Week 2 Sunday slate of games, thanks to 10 receptions for 127 yards through the first two weeks. The reason for his success has been […]

Both De’Von Achane ($9,800 Showdown) and Raheem Mostert (chest) are dealing with injuries and while Mostert has been ruled out for Thursday vs. the Bills, Achane is questionable and considered a game-time decision, per Mike McDaniel. If Achane plays and doesn’t see any serious limitations, the back should see a massive role sans Mostert. Now, […]

Christian McCaffrey ($8,700) was a surprise inactive this past Monday vs. the Jets, but Kyle Shanahan had some positive updates Tuesday, telling the media McCaffrey would have played if Monday was a playoff game and that he is considered day-to-day. While this is encouraging, McCaffrey’s status for this Sunday vs. the Vikings remains up in […]
