Matt Prater A Starting Option In Week 2
Arizona Cardinals kicker Matt Prater is a solid option in Week 2 in what could be a high-scoring affair with the Las Vegas Raiders. He didn't attempt a field goal in Week 1, but that was expected when the Cardinals went down by multiple possessions early in the game. The 38-year-old was a decent option... Read More
Cardinals Defense Draws Another Tough Matchup In Week 2
The Arizona Cardinals defense will have their hands full once again in Week 2 as they take on Derek Carr, Davante Adams, Darren Waller, and company.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Greg Dortch could have some solid upside in Week 2 after a strong performance in the season opener.

James Conner A High-End RB2 In Week 2
Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner will look to build off a solid start to the season after he totaled five receptions, 55 total yards, and a touchdown in Week 1.

Kyler Murray A Solid QB1 Option In Week 2
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray will look to lead his team to a bounce-back effort in Week 2 as they travel to Las Vegas.

Vikings Defense Draws Tough Matchup In Week 2
The Minnesota Vikings defense will look to slow down the high-powered Philadelphia Eagles offense in Week 2 after holding Aaron Rodgers and company to just seven points in the season opener.

Greg Joseph A Solid Option In Week 2
Minnesota Vikings kicker Greg Joseph looks like a solid starting option for fantasy managers in Week 2. Joseph was perfect in the season opener, as he converted all three of his field goal attempts and both extra points.

Irv Smith Jr. A TE2 In Week 2
Minnesota Vikings tight end Irv Smith Jr. will look to bounce back in Week 2 after seeing just two targets on 19 snaps in the season opener.

Dalvin Cook A High-End RB1 In Week 2
Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook is primed for a big game on Monday night against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Kirk Cousins Has QB1 Appeal In Week 2
Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins has some streaming appeal in Week 2 as he faces off with the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday night. Cousins has been a notoriously poor performer on Monday night primetime games, but the new pass-heavy offense he operates in should set him up for fantasy success against an Eagles defense that...

Is Najee Harris Hurt or Healthy? Is Najee Harris Playing in Week 2 for Fantasy Football?
Najee Harris got off to a slow start for fantasy managers in Week 1 as he carried the ball 10 times for 23 yards and added two receptions for an additional three yards against the Bengals. A receiving touchdown somewhat salvaged his day, but the season opener was a disappointment nonetheless. Still, we shouldn't overreact... Read More
Should I Start CeeDee Lamb in Week 2? Lamb's Fantasy Football Outlook After Dak's Injury
CeeDee Lamb was labeled as a popular breakout candidate among consensus as he enters his third season in the NFL.

Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker T.J. Watt (pectoral) suffered a torn pec muscle in the team's Week 1 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals, but he will not require surgery, according to Ian Rapoport.

Read More
Zach Ertz Scores Touchdown In Week 1
Arizona Cardinals tight end Zach Ertz caught two passes for 14 yards and found the end zone in the team's Week 1 blowout loss.

Greg Dortch Leads Cardinals In Receiving
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Greg Dortch caught seven passes for 63 yards to lead the Cardinals in receiving in Week 1. He had a team-high nine targets as he filled in for Rondale Moore and could continue to have a sizeable role in the offense for as long as he is sidelined. Dortch could be... Read More
