New York Giants running back Dion Lewis had 10 carries for 20 yards and a touchdown after starting running back Saquon Barkley (knee) left with an injury. Lewis added four catches for 36 yards in the loss at Chicago. Lewis will be a popular waiver wire add, but he won’t take over the role Barkley played in the offense. Wayne Gallman was inactive for Sunday’s

Atlanta Falcons running back Todd Gurley II finished the Week 2 loss to the Cowboys with 21 rushes for 61 yards. Despite a high-scoring affair, it was the aerial attack of the Falcons that did most of the damage. On the bright side, Gurley has had essentially no competition for his RB1 role on the team, and Ito Smith had the second-most carries with only

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger completed 29 of 41 passes for 311 yards, two touchdowns, and an interception in a 26-21 win over the Denver Broncos in Week 2. Roethlisberger found rookie Chase Claypool on a deep pass down the left sideline for an 84-yard touchdown in the second quarter and then hooked up with Diontae Johnson for a 28-yard score at the end of

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott made all of his kicks in Week 2. He connected on an extra point and on two field goals, one from 38 yards out and the other from 33. It was a solid performance from Elliott surrounded by a very rough one by the Eagles offense. Elliott should remain a consistent fantasy kicker, but if the Eagles offense continues to

Chicago Bears tight end Jimmy Graham caught only one pass for 18 yards in the Bears 17-17-13 win over the Giants. The veteran made a nice grab on an out-route for an early first down in the first quarter. But after that, Graham disappeared from the game plan and the Bears offense struggled in the second half. Graham is not the type of player to

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan went 24-for-36 with 273 yards and four touchdowns in the 40-39 loss to the Dallas Cowboys in Week 2. It was another productive outing for Ryan, and it has become clear that the defense cannot hold up against opponents based on the past two weeks. With more pressure on the offense to win games, Ryan will continue to lead his

The San Francisco 49ers Defense suffered multiple injuries in their Week 2 contest against the Jets. Star defensive end Nick Bosa (knee) likely suffered a torn ACL according to head coach Kyle Shanahan and fellow lineman Solomon Thomas (knee) also suffered an injury that is feared to be serious. It was a rough day for injuries as a whole, as both these linemen are big

Chicago Bears wide receiver Darnell Mooney caught three passes for 36 yards, including a 15-yard touchdown, in the Bears slim victory over the Giants 17-13. The rookie made a nice play in the end zone, coming back to the ball on a scramble play from quarterback Mitchell Trubisky that led to his first NFL score. Mooney has not put up fantasy-viable stats through the first

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver J.J. Arcega-Whiteside was targeted twice in the Eagles Week 2 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. He was unable to come up with either target, leaving him with a stat line full of zeros. Arcega-Whiteside was hyped as potentially having a significant role in the Eagles offense this season, but he has been thoroughly irrelevant for the first two weeks. He

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Greg Ward saw only one target in Week 2, catching it for a five yard gain. With Carson Wentz throwing 43 passes, it was disappointing to see only one go in Ward’s direction. DeSean Jackson and rookie Jalen Reagor played in two-wide sets, with tight ends Zach Ertz and Dallas Goedert seeing a lot of the field together, leaving Ward on

Chicago Bears wide receiver Anthony Miller was held without a catch in the Bears 17-13 win over the Giants. Miller was targeted three times but failed to make some plays with his limited opportunities. The Bears offense was cruising in the first half but ship wrecked in the second. Miller’s fantasy value is tied to the inconsistent play of quarterback Mitch Trubisky, making the third-year

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert caught four passes in a Week 2 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, gaining 30 yards. Goedert ended up second on the team in targets with eight, but couldn’t do much with those targets as the entire Eagles offense struggled at home. It was still encouraging to see Goedert out-target Zach Ertz, but Ertz was able to do slightly

Chicago Bears running back Tarik Cohen carried the ball five times for 12 yards and added one 15-yard reception in the Bears win over the Giants in Week 2. Cohen was featured early but this became David Montgomery‘s game by the second half. Cohen is extremely talented and is also coming off signing a three-year extension. But he is also extremely volatile from a fantasy

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver Jalen Reagor caught all of the passes thrown his way in Week 2, totaling 41 yards. It was a nice bump after Reagor only caught one pass last week. He’ll get more and more involved in the offense as time goes by, especially since he missed a lot of practice time with a shoulder injury before the season began. Reagor’s

Chicago Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson II caught three passes for 33 yards in the Bears 17-13 win over the Giants in Week 2. It wasn’t for a lack of trying as Robinson led the team with nine targets but struggled to connect with an inconsistent Mitch Trubisky. Robinson remains the number one wide receiver in an offense that has plenty of work to do

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Tyler Eifert was targeted six times in Sunday’s loss to the Tennessee Titans. He brought in three of them for 36 yards and a touchdown. At a shallow fantasy position, Eifert’s usage in this one is interesting, though the fact that he was targeted just once back in Week 1 is a reminder that he has a rock bottom fantasy floor.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II took a backseat to Leonard Fournette in Week 2. Jones II posted 23 rushing yards on seven carries with a touchdown and caught both of his targets for four receiving yards. Fortunately for Jones II, he punched in a seven-yard touchdown run in the first quarter to begin the scoring and to somewhat salvage his fantasy day.

For the second week in a row, Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Keelan Cole caught a touchdown from quarterback Gardner Minshew II. Cole was an afterthought last year, but has emerged as a key weapon for Minshew in 2020. He was targeted seven times, catching six passes for 58 yards and the score. Cole’s becoming a solid deep league fantasy start and should be added in

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz caught five passes in Week 2, gaining 42 yards. Ertz was targeted seven times in a game where the Eagles offense struggled in many different aspects. Ertz was behind Dallas Goedert in targets by one, but Ertz was the one that made better use of the balls thrown his way. The Eagles offense has a lot to work on

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson caught six of his nine targets in Week 2, gaining 64 scoreless yards. The Eagles offense as a whole was a mess in this one, but Jackson was at least able to come down with the most catches and the most receiving yards on the team. A matchup with the similarly 0-2 Cincinnati Bengals awaits the Eagles next week.
