Jacksonville Jaguars rookie wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr. is reportedly being used in a variety of ways at practice. Though the beat writer who reported this was unable to go into specifics due to the NFL’s media rules, one can assume that Shenault is getting at least some work in the backfield, whether that be as a running back or as a wildcat quarterback, as

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Devine Ozigbo (hamstring) will start the 2020 season on the Injured Reserve. New rules this year mean Ozigbo could return for Week 4, but in the meantime, it appears that undrafted rookie James Robinson is going to get the first crack at the lead-back role. Robinson should be added in all 12-team leagues, while Ozigbo is still worth holding in deeper

New Orleans Saints kicker Wil Lutz is one of the best fantasy kickers in the business. He’ll square off against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in what could turn into a high-scoring affair. Lutz finished second to only Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker in total points with 147 and made 32 of 36 field goals while missing just one extra point. The veteran kicker enjoyed success against

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton (sprained AC joint) is day-to-day and is questionable for Denver’s season-opening game against the Denver Broncos. Sutton left practice early on Thursday with a shoulder issue, and this new appears to be a best-case scenario for Sutton. If he does have to miss Week 1, rookie Jerry Jeudy becomes a slightly better play, though the biggest fantasy riser might

The New Orleans Saints Defense can be used as a starting option in Week 1 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but don’t expect huge numbers. Tampa Bay is armed with weapons and a Hall of Fame quarterback in Tom Brady, who is far less likely to turn the ball over as much as his predecessor Jameis Winston. It’s also likely that the Buccaneers won’t allow

The San Francisco49ers Defense had a fantastic year last year, finishing second in the league in yards allowed per game (281.8) and eighth in points allowed per game (19.4). However, they open this season against an Arizona Cardinals offense that will be looking to push the pace all game long, which could lead to a high-scoring affair. Last year, the Cardinals averaged 25.5 points per

San Francisco 49ers rookie wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk (hamstring) returned to practice on Thursday after being sidelined over two weeks with a hamstring strain. He’s currently listed as questionable for Sunday’s game against the Arizona Cardinals. Given Aiyuk’s injury and the limited offseason as a whole, Aiyuk shouldn’t be counted on to deliver a solid fantasy showing in his NFL debut. Aiyuk is a great

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle is in a perfect position to start the 2020 season off with a bang. The 49ers are plagued with injuries at receiver right now. Both Deebo Samuel (foot) and Brandon Aiyuk (hamstring) are questionable for the game. Whether or not Samuel and Aiyuk play, expect to see quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo pepper Kittle with targets all day against an

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Kendrick Bourne is currently listed as a starter on the team’s depth chart, the only starting wide receiver who doesn’t have an injury designation. If fellow starting wide receivers Deebo Samuel (foot) and Brandon Aiyuk (hamstring) are out for Sunday’s game against the Arizona Cardinals, Bourne becomes a deep league starting option as a WR3 or flex. Without Samuel and

San Francisco 49ers running back Tevin Coleman will certainly play a role in Week 1 against the Arizona Cardinals, it’s just unclear how big of a role he’ll have at this point. The team’s primary ball carrier will be Raheem Mostert and Coleman is slated to be the No. 2. Where Coleman could have the most value is in the passing game as Mostert hasn’t

San Francisco 49ers running back Raheem Mostert should be the primary ball carrier for the team in their season opener against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday. Mostert broke out in a big way during the second half of last year and he’s in a good position to keep on rolling as we begin the 2020 season. The 49ers should be able to run all over

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo might have a hobbled and questionable set of receivers going into Week 1, but he still finds himself in a relatively promising position. This Sunday, Garoppolo faces an Arizona Cardinals Defense that was atrocious against the pass last year, allowing 281.9 passing yards per game, second-worst in the league. Garoppolo should be able to connect with George Kittle on

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver Jalen Reagor (shoulder) was able to practice in full on Thursday. Reagor was expected to miss “at least” a month, but it now looks like he might be able to take the field in Week 1 against the Washington Football Team. Fantasy managers who drafted Reagor thinking they’d wait out the first few weeks of the season might get to

Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders (hamstring) was limited again in Thursday’s practice. Sanders returned to a limited practice on Wednesday and apparently escaped without further injury as he was able to practice again on Thursday. A full practice on Friday would be a great sign for Sanders, but he’s likely to get another limited practice in and be questionable at best for Sunday’s game

In 2019, the ArizonaCardinals Defense ranked among the bottom five of the league in points per game (27.6) and finished dead last in yards allowed per game (402). Don’t expect that to change too drastically this year. Even if the team’s defense is able to make some strides as a unit, they are still going to play victim to the offense’s quick pace of play.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald should see some of the lightest coverage of his career this year with star receiver DeAndre Hopkins now in town. Expect Fitzgerald to take advantage often, starting in Week 1 as the team faces off against the San Francisco 49ers. Fitzgerald has a decent amount of value in PPR leagues as the Cardinals’ primary slot receiver. He’s averaged right

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Christian Kirk should be in line for a solid role in Week 1 against the San Francisco 49ers. The team’s No. 1 receiver DeAndre Hopkins may end up with the bulk of the targets, but he’s likely to be covered by the 49ers’ top cornerback Richard Sherman, while Kirk could have a more favorable matchup. Larry Fitzgerald of course factors into

Fresh off his new contract, Arizona Cardinals wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins will make his Cardinals debut this Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers. Hopkins might have a bit of a challenge in the game, going up against Richard Sherman and a 49ers Defense that ranked second in the league in pass defense last year. However, he should still get enough targets to make him worthy

Arizona Cardinals running back Chase Edmonds should certainly have a role in the Cardinals offense this year, but it’s hard to know just how big of a role that will be at this point. The team’s primary running back Kenyan Drake had been dealing with a minor foot injury in recent weeks but is not listed on the team’s injury report and should be expected

Arizona Cardinals running back Kenyan Drake should be set to have a big role in Week 1 against the San Francisco 49ers. While the 49ers were dominant against the pass last season (2nd in the league in yards per game), they were amongst the middle of the pack in rushing defense, allowing an average of 112.6 rushing yards per game. Expect the Cardinals to try
