Week 8 Monday Review: Comeback Stories Headline What Proved to be an Exciting Start to the Second Half of the Fantasy Season

After Week 7 underwhelmed overall, Week 8 has more than made up for it.

The top-two picks in this year’s NFL draft provided us with what will likely be the most memorable ending to a game fans get all season, as the legend (and MVP resume) of Jayden Daniels continues to grow. Tua Tagovailoa’s return provided the spark that Miami needed to get its offense back on track. On top of all that, fantasy managers got the best week of the season from the tight end position on National Tight End Day.

With such a great start to the second half of the fantasy season, hopefully the rest of the season can measure up!

As always, we will be using the Monday Review tool to look at all the Week 8 action as we head into the Week 8 finale between the Steelers and Giants on Monday night.
