Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (knee) missed practice on Wednesday. The veteran wide receiver was joined on the sidelines by Diontae Johnson in the team’s first session since their Monday night win over the New York Giants. It is possible that the Steelers are just giving their top receivers some extra rest on a short week ahead of their Sunday showdown against the Denver

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey will be in every fantasy manager’s lineup when he takes the field for a Week 2 matchup with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. In all likelihood, McCaffrey will put up his normal, week-winning numbers. Still, this Tampa Bay run defense is one to fear. They ranked first in the league against the run in 2019, held Alvin Kamara to just

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry (hip) is listed as questionable for the Thursday night game against the divisional-rival Bengals. Landry missed practice on Tuesday but was limited on Wednesday. He played 46 of 67 snaps in the Week 1 blowout loss to the Ravens and caught five of his six targets for 61 yards. Rashard Higgins would likely start opposite Odell Beckham Jr. if

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger said he was pretty sore after the Monday night win over the Giants in Week 1, his first game in 364 days after suffering a season-ending elbow injury in 2019. “I was saying today I feel like I was just in a car accident. Yesterday I felt like I was in a trainwreck. Hopefully tomorrow it’ll feel like I just

Carolina Panthers quarterback Teddy Bridgewater draws a tough matchup in Week 2 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ improved defense. Tampa Bay’s pass rush made Hall of Famer Drew Brees look very ordinary in Week 1 and could do the same to Bridgewater, especially considering his offensive line isn’t as good as Brees’. The 27-year-old threw for 270 yards and a score against Oakland, though their

Philadelphia Eagles running back Boston Scott (undisclosed) had to leave the game in Week 1 but was able to return. He’s likely to run behind Miles Sanders (hamstring) in Week 2, although Sanders is no sure thing to play. Even if Sanders gets the start, he may be limited or on a snap count, giving Scott perhaps one more week of legitimate stand-alone fantasy value.

Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders (hamstring) practiced in full on Wednesday and should be good to go for Sunday’s game against the Los Angeles Rams unless he experiences a new setback. The Eagles backfield was mostly a mess in Week 1 without Sanders. He’ll bring a new element to the offense that should help the unit as a whole. Sanders could be on a

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz looks like a solid QB2 option in Week 2. Taking on a tough Rams Defense and coming off a disappointing loss to the Washington Football Team, Wentz just doesn’t have the weapons on offense to be trusted as a QB1. His floor is decent enough that he won’t ruin your weekly score, but most fantasy managers are likely to find

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring) was a limited participant in Wednesday’s practice. Head coach Bruce Arians said that Evans “ran really well” and had a great practice. The 27-year-old was able to play in Week 1, though he only registered one catch. Fortunately for his fantasy managers, Evans will see a lot more usage in Week 2, especially if fellow wideout Chris

New York Jets wide receiver Breshad Perriman was listed as the No. 1 option for the team heading into their Week 1 matchup with the Buffalo Bills. He finished the game with three receptions on five targets for 17 yards. Both Jamison Crowder and Chris Herndon appear to be the favorable options in New York. Things aren’t going to get easier for Perriman in Week

New York Jets tight end Chris Herndon could be headed towards a breakout season in 2020. He hauled in six of his seven targets for 37 yards in the loss to the Buffalo Bills in Week 1. The Jets don’t have many reliable options on offense, so they will probably look Herndon’s way quite often. He’ll get a tough matchup against the San Francisco 49ers

New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder (hamstring) was limited during Wednesday’s practice. Crowder was battling a hamstring issue in training camp, but wasn’t on the injury report during Week 1. He hauled in seven of his 13 targets for 115 yards and one touchdown in the Week 1 loss to the Buffalo Bills. Crowder is one of the few players on the Jets that

New York Jets running back Frank Gore has been named the starter for their Week 2 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. Le’Veon Bell (hamstring) has been placed on the injured reserve. That means, Gore, Josh Adams, and Kalen Ballage will be tasked with holding together the Jets rushing attack. The 37-year-old back rushed six times for 24 yards against the Buffalo Bills in Week

New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold was expected to have a bounce-back season with a new revamped offensive line. However, Darnold continued to struggle in their season opener versus the Buffalo Bills. He completed 21 of 35 passes for 215 yards with one touchdown and one interception. To be fair, Darnold has one of the worst supporting casts around him. Their rushing attack has been

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox has been lost in the shuffle, but was able to haul in two receptions for 26 yards during their Week 1 victory. Knox has big play potential, but the Bills have Stefon Diggs, John Brown (foot), and Cole Beasley who are all targeted more often than him. It’ll be tough for him to see more than three or four

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Cole Beasley is not normally a reliable fantasy option most weeks. However, John Brown (foot) was held out of Wednesday’s practice and is in danger of missing their Week 2 contest against the Miami Dolphins. Brown’s absence would mean more playing time for Beasley. He finished with four receptions on seven targets for 58 yards in Week 1. He could be

Buffalo Bills wide receiver John Brown (foot) was held out of Wednesday’s practice. He was on the field for almost every snap during their Week 1 victory over the New York Jets. Brown hauled in six of his 10 targets for 70 yards and one touchdown in that contest. However, the Bills are in danger of being without their deep threat for this one. Cole

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs had a fairly strong debut with his new team. He hauled in eight of his nine targets for 86 yards in the victory over the New York Jets. The Bills ran away with the game early, so they didn’t need to target Diggs much in the second half. Quarterback Josh Allen loves to throw deep, so Diggs should have

Chicago Bears tight end Jimmy Graham will be back on the fantasy radar heading into Week 2 against the Giants. Graham caught only three passes for 25 yards in Week 1 but brought in his first touchdown in a Bears uniform and had a second score expunged after an official review. The veteran will be a touchdown-dependent fantasy option against a Giants Defense that allowed

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Parris Campbell had an encouraging Week 1, catching six balls for 71 yards on nine targets. Campbell showed in Week 1 why the Colts were so excited about him when they drafted him. While Week 1 was a solid performance, fantasy owners would be advised to wait on him a while before putting him in their starting lineups. Last week against
