Logan Thomas Catches Touchdown in Week 1

Washington Football Team tight end Logan Thomas caught three passes for 30 yards and a touchdown in the season opener against the Los Angeles Chargers. The Washington passing game struggled with the early departure of quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick, but the 30-year-old salvaged a potentially poor performance by finding the end zone. If Fitzpatrick misses some […]

Week 1 Busts? Players Who May Disappoint

As we kick off the 2021 NFL season, Week 1 is an opportunity for fantasy managers to start off on the right foot as they look to achieve fantasy glory. Having said that, some players will inevitably underperform or disappoint. Whatever happens in the opening week shouldn't drastically change your opinion of a particular player. […]

Trey Sermon Looks To Start Strong In Week 1

San Francisco 49ers running back Trey Sermon will make his NFL debut on Sunday against the Detroit Lions. The rookie has a favorable matchup against the fifth-worst run defense from a season ago, but the volume he will get in this game is still a question mark. Raheem Mostert will likely get the largest share […]

Jimmy Garoppolo A QB2 In Week 1

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo will kick off his fifth season with the team, as Trey Lance looms in the background. The 29-year-old has a great matchup on Sunday, as he faces the third-worst pass defense from a season ago. Although the matchup seems great on paper, the former New England Patriot is not […]

Deebo Samuel A FLEX Option Week 1?

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel is heading into his third season in the NFL after dealing with the injury bug in his sophomore year. The 25-year-old recently said that "this is the best I've felt since I've been here," so fantasy managers can breathe a sigh of relief when it comes to his […]

Brandon Aiyuk A Solid Option In Week 1

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk has a great matchup in Week 1 against the Detroit Lions who were the third-worst team against the pass last season. The 23-year-old is coming off a rookie season where he finished strong, putting up 60 receptions for 748 yards and five touchdowns. He could be short of […]

George Kittle Has A Great Matchup Week 1

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle is in a great spot to show why he is one of the league's best on Sunday. Last year, the Detroit Lions gave up the third-most passing yards per game and the 15th most fantasy points per game to the tight end position. The 27-year-old has a realistic […]

Raheem Mostert Has A Great Matchup Week 1

San Francisco 49ers running back Raheem Mostert could be in for a masterpiece on Sunday against the Detroit Lions. The Lions struggled against the run last year, giving up 134.9 rushing yards per game which was good for fifth-worst. The run-heavy scheme of the 49ers puts Mostert in must-start territory for this contest because of […]

Kenny Golladay Good To Go In Week 1

New York Giants wide receiver Kenny Golladay will be active on Sunday as he was not listed on the final injury report for their Week 1 matchup against the Denver Broncos. Golladay will be stepping into the No. 1 receiver role for quarterback Daniel Jones, but there will be a lot of competition for targets. […]

Evan Engram Out Week 1

New York Giants tight end Evan Engram (calf) will be held out of Week 1 against the Denver Broncos. Engram has missed practice time leading up to the season opener, so it is not surprising he will be inactive on Sunday. Kyle Rudolph could be the biggest beneficiary of Engram's absence, as he can potentially […]

Austin Ekeler Back At Practice

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler (hamstring) was back at practice on Friday after sitting out on Wednesday and Thursday. This is a good sign for his availability in the season opener against the Washington Football Team, as the missed practice time could have been mainly precautionary. Ekeler will remain an RB1 option even […]

Michael Gallup Out Up To Five Weeks

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup (calf) will be sidelined for three to five weeks after he was injured in the season opener against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Thursday night. Gallup exited the game early after catching four passes for 36 yards on seven targets. Until he returns to the lineup, wide receivers Amari […]

Curtis Samuel Heading To IR

Washington Football Team wide receiver Curtis Samuel (groin) is headed to injured reserve, according to head coach Ron Rivera. The 25-year-old has been dealing with this injury since minicamp in June, and he experienced some setbacks during the past couple of days at practice. He initially looked on track to play ahead of Week 1, […]

Saquon Barkley Looks “Promising” Ahead Of Week 1

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (knee) has looked promising during the past couple of days ahead of Week 1 against the Denver Broncos, according to head coach Joe Judge. Barkley is on track to play on Sunday, and it would "take a setback" for him to be held out of the lineup. The […]

Nick Boyle Placed On Short-Term IR

Baltimore Ravens tight end Nick Boyle (knee) will go on short-term injured reserve, according to head coach John Harbaugh. This means Boyle will be held out of action for a minimum of three weeks and can return in Week 4 against the Denver Broncos. Boyle is more of a blocking tight end, so the Baltimore […]

Jamison Crowder Out Week 1

New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder (COVID-19) will be held out of the season opener against the Carolina Panthers, according to head coach Robert Saleh. The absence of Crowder means that Corey Davis and rookie Elijah Moore could see an increase in targets as Zach Wilson has built a connection with the two of […]

Emmanuel Sanders Questionable For Week 1

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders (foot) is questionable for the season opener against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday, according to head coach Sean McDermott. If Sanders isn't able to suit up in Week 1, this potentially gives Cole Beasley and Gabriel Davis more promising outlooks. Beasley and Davis could potentially be on the FLEX […]

Curtis Samuel Misses Practice Thursday

Washington Football Team wide receiver Curtis Samuel (groin) missed practice again on Thursday after tweaking his pre-existing injury at the beginning portion of practice on Wednesday. Head coach Ron Rivera was hopeful that Samuel would get a full week of work ahead of their Week 1 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers, but that has […]

J.D. McKissic Not A Starting Option In Week 1

Washington Football Team running back J.D. McKissic was one of the best pass-catching running backs in all of the NFL last year after recording 80 receptions (110 targets) while serving as the primary third-down back. Antonio Gibson is primed for a larger workload as a sophomore, so McKissic's outlook is not nearly as promising this […]

Dyami Brown “A Big Play Waiting To Happen”

Washington Football Team wide receiver Dyami Brown continues to generate buzz from the coaching staff and his teammates ahead of the season opener against the Los Angeles Chargers. The former North Carolina standout was described as a "big play waiting to happen," according to head coach Ron Rivera. With Curtis Samuel (groin) still not 100% […]

Vikings Sign Brian O’Neill To Five-Year Extension

Minnesota Vikings right tackle Brian O'Neill has signed a five-year extension worth $92.5 million, making him the second-highest paid player at the position in the NFL. The former second-round pick has played in 46 games with the Vikings and is viewed by many as the best offensive lineman on the team. In 2020, he played […]

Ravens Sign Trenton Cannon To 53-Man Roster

The Baltimore Ravens have signed running back Trenton Cannon to their active roster after losing J.K. Dobbins (knee) and Justice Hill (Achilles) to season-ending injuries. Cannon was signed to the 53-man roster because of his ability to play on special teams, which is a role that needed to be filled after the loss of Hill. […]

Curtis Samuel Begins Practice, Then Heads To Sidelines

Washington Football Team wide receiver Curtis Samuel (groin) joined the team at practice once again on Wednesday but then headed to the sidelines after appearing to be in some discomfort. Samuel was spotted working with trainers and getting stretched out after running some routes at the beginning of practice. This doesn't help the outlook of […]

Washington Defense A Solid Starting Option Week 1

The Washington Football Team D/ST is a solid starting option for fantasy managers in Week 1 as they take on the Los Angeles Chargers. Although they are going up against a talented offense that features the likes of Justin Herbert, Keenan Allen, and Austin Ekeler, the Washington defense should be started with confidence. Last year, […]

Ryan Fitzpatrick Will Look To Start Off Strong Week 1

Washington Football Team quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick will look to make a good first impression with his new team against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 1. The Chargers allowed the ninth-fewest passing yards per game last year, and that was without their elite safety Derwin James. This matchup has the look of a low-scoring game, […]

Antonio Gibson In For Large Workload Week 1?

Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson should be getting a large workload in Week 1 against the Los Angeles Chargers, in what should be a low-scoring affair between two stout defenses. The Chargers allowed the 15th-most rushing yards per game in 2020, so Gibson has a fairly promising outlook for this matchup. Washington's elite […]

Terry McLaurin Faces Tough Matchup In Week 1

Washington Football Team wide receiver Terry McLaurin will have his work cut out for him in a Week 1 matchup with the Los Angeles Chargers. The return of Derwin James gives the Chargers a huge boost to their secondary after they allowed the ninth-fewest passing yards per game in 2020. McLaurin will likely draw the […]

Logan Thomas In For Tough Matchup Week 1

Washington Football Team tight end Logan Thomas has a tough matchup in Week 1 as he goes up against the Los Angeles Chargers. The Chargers have a stout defense that allowed the ninth-fewest passing yards per game last season, and that was without Derwin James. The return of their elite safety could mean that Thomas […]

Antonio Gibson Sets Sights On 2,000 Scrimmage Yards

Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson has set some lofty goals to achieve in the 2021 season. In a recent interview, the 23-year-old told Ty Dunne that he has his sights set on 1,200 yards rushing with 12+ touchdowns and 2,000 yards from scrimmage. Gibson has generated a lot of hype this offseason and […]

Washington Signs Jonathan Williams To Practice Squad

The Washington Football Team has signed running back Jonathan Williams to their practice squad after releasing him prior to the 53-man roster deadline last week. This move comes after Peyton Barber signed with the Las Vegas Raiders from the Washington practice squad, so Williams could be promoted to the active roster if there are any […]
