Tre’ Harris caught 1-of-3 targets for 53 yards in the Chargers’ Week 2 loss to the Raiders.

21 September 2026

Harris broke free for a 53-yard strike early in the second half. He nearly took it to the house but was pushed out of bounds at the five-yard line, setting up an eventual Oronde Gadsden touchdown. Harris wasn’t heavily involved in the Bolts’ passing attack despite Ladd McConkey being hampered by a rib injury. With McConkey presumably getting healthier for Week 3, Harris is deep in the WR6/7 range for his upcoming matchup with Buffalo.

Bo Nix completed 22-of-31 attempts for 288 yards, one touchdown, and one interception in the Broncos’ Week 2 win against the Jaguars, adding five rushes for eight yards.

21 September 2026

It was an uneven day for Nix, who missed some routine throws and threw a bad pick in the end zone while targeting Courtland Sutton. He targeted Jaylen Waddle heavily and connected with Waddle for a 49-yard gain in the first half, regularly attacking the Jaguars secondary downfield. After taking far too many sacks in Week 1 against the Chiefs, Nix was not sacked against a solid Jaguars pass rush on Sunday. Nix’s lack of early-season rushing success has dinged his fantasy prospects a bit. He’ ...

Harold Fannin caught 5-of-6 targets for 54 yards in the Browns’ Week 2 win against the Bucs.

21 September 2026

Fannin showed signs of life as Deshaun Watson played much better than he did in the season opener against the Jaguars. Running a pass route on 28 of the Browns’ 36 drop backs, Fannin was tied for second in targets among Cleveland pass catchers. Watson’s check-down tendencies — he had a 3.6 aDOT against Tampa — could keep Fannin alive for PPR purposes in Week 3 against the Panthers. He likely won’t be a top-12 option though.

Raiders coach Klint Kubiak said TE Brock Bowers (knee) is “close, very close” to returning.

21 September 2026

Kubiak adds that Bowers “looks great.” The Raiders’ star tight end practiced in a limited capacity on Friday and went through pre-game warmups today to see if he could play, despite being listed as doubtful. Nothing is set in stone, and re-injuries are possible, but Kubiak’s comments are very encouraging. Bowers seemingly has a real chance to make his 2026 debut, playing in Kubiak’s offense for the very first time, in Week 3 against the Saints. He should be treated as an elite TE1 if ...

Ladd McConkey caught all three of his targets for 35 yards in the Chargers’ Week 2 loss to the Raiders.

21 September 2026

Playing through a cracked rib, McConkey was largely tasked with decoy duties in this game. He ran 71 percent of the total routes but was targeted on just 14 percent of his routes. For reference, McConkey was targeted on 39 percent of his routes in Week 1. McConkey still made the most of his limited targets in this contest, converting a pair of third-and-long plays when the offense desperately needed someone to step up. He should earn more targets and run more routes in a potential shootout with ...

Ted Hurst caught 1-of-5 targets for 21 yards in the Bucs’ Week 2 loss against the Browns.

21 September 2026

Hurst was overthrown by Baker Mayfield a few times in the second half. It could have been a big day for the speedy rookie if his quarterback weren’t struggling so mightily with deep throws. Hurst had a solid role though, running a route on 29 of the team’s 37 drop backs. He will be a high-variance flex play for Week 3 against the Vikings if Mayfield can find a little accuracy.

Charlie Kolar was seen wearing a sling around his left arm after the Chargers’ Week 2 loss to the Raiders.

21 September 2026

Jim Harbaugh did not have an update on Kolar after the game. Kolar left Week 2 early with a forearm injury and did not return. David Njoku had already exited the game with a knee injury. Assuming both players are out for a while, Oronde Gadsden now finds himself in a position to play an every-down role for the Chargers.

Tyler Badie had one rush for one yard in the Broncos’ Week 2 win against the Jaguars, adding two catches for 28 yards.

21 September 2026

Badie saw significant action in this one after JK Dobbins exited the contest with a hamstring injury. RJ Harvey was inactive with his own hamstring issue, leaving Badie in the Harvey role and rookie RB Jonah Coleman as the primary early-down option for OC Davis Webb. If Dobbins and Harvey are sidelined next week against the Rams, Badie would have some usefulness in deeper PPR formats.

Quentin Johnston caught 1-of-5 targets for seven yards in the Chargers’ Week 2 loss to the Raiders.

21 September 2026

Johnston led the Bolts in targets but failed to do almost anything with those looks. He even committed his weekly drop on a long ball from Justin Herbert down the sideline. Johnston has three catches for 24 yards through two weeks. With Ladd McConkey hopefully healthier and less of a decoy next week, Johnston’s role isn’t going to grow anytime soon. He is sliding back into the WR5 ranks for his Week 3 date with the Bills.

Evan Engram caught his lone target for 17 yards in the Broncos’ Week 2 win against the Jaguars.

21 September 2026

Engram followed up his four catch, 43 yard, one touchdown Week 1 performance with a dud against his former team. Engram ran a route on just 15 of Bo Nix’s 34 drop backs, a far lower rate than he had in Week 1 against the Chiefs. That kind of role and usage would mean Engram is unusable in fantasy formats. He should remain on waiver wires ahead of the Broncos’ Week 3 matchup against the Rams.

Marvin Harrison caught 0-of-1 targets in the Cardinals’ Week 2 loss to the Seahawks.

21 September 2026

The former Colts wide receiver’s son was a ghost in this one. Harrison’s lone target occurred on the Cardinals’ sixth drive, but he was unable to secure it. The Cardinals will likely need Harrison to contribute if they hope to put up a fight against the 49ers next week, but at this point, he does not necessarily need to be in starting lineups for 12-team leagues. He can only be viewed as a boom-bust FLEX.

Jerry Jeudy did not catch his lone target in the Browns’ Week 2 win against the Bucs.

21 September 2026

After his two-catch performance in Week 1, Jeudy is off to a roaring start. Denzel Boston has established himself as Cleveland’s de facto No. 1 wideout while KC Concepcion is being force fed the ball on gadget plays near the line of scrimmage. With almost no avenue to fantasy relevance, Jeudy should remain on waiver wires.

Oronde Gadsden caught both of his targets for 18 yards and a touchdown in the Chargers’ Week 2 loss to the Raiders.

21 September 2026

David Njoku left the game early with a knee injury and Charlie Kolar followed him to the locker room much later because of a forearm injury. As a result, Gadsden’s route rate jumped from 14 percent in Week 1 to 48 percent today. He still managed just two catches, but Gadsden at least found the end zone for the first time this year. The Chargers offense has looked defunct through two weeks, so even a full-time role for Gadsden could result in middling fantasy numbers. Still, he is worth a look ...

Emanuel Wilson rushed 21 times for 92 yards in the Seahawks’ Week 2 win over the Cardinals.

21 September 2026

Wilson failed to catch his lone target. The Seahawks’ burly back began rotating in on the team’s fourth drive and traded touches with starting RB Jadarian Price thereafter. On the fifth drive, Price got the first touch on 1st-and-goal, but Wilson subbed in and took three unsuccessful carries in a row, leading to a turnover on downs. That did not deter the Seahawks from using him, though. Wilson remained heavily involved for the rest of the game and generally served as the team’s lead rush ...

George Holani rushed four times for 13 yards in the Seahawks’ Week 2 win over the Cardinals, adding one reception for two yards.

21 September 2026

Holani got involved late in the game, after starting RB Jadarian Price exited with a chest injury, but it was RB Emanuel Wilson who regularly spelled Price throughout the game, racking up a game-high 21 carries. If Price is sidelined against the Commanders in Week 3, Holani would likely handle passing downs in Seattle’s backfield.

Kirk Cousins completed 19-of-29 passes for 253 yards, three touchdowns, and an interception in the Raiders’ 26-14, Week 2 win over the Chargers.

21 September 2026

Cousins was intercepted on the Raiders’ opening drive of the game, but no one was necessarily at fault. Cousins threw a well-timed ball to Tre Tucker on an in-breaking route and the speedy receiver slipped while cutting, leaving the pass to sail into enemy hands. The veteran passer needed a few more drives to get in rhythm but eventually began to pick apart the LA defense. He completed four passes of 20+ yards, something he managed just once in Week 1. Cousins remains more of a ball distribut ...

Jacoby Brissett completed 17-of-28 passes for 95 yards, one touchdown and one interception in the Cardinals’ 7-31, Week 2 loss to the Seahawks, adding one rush for seven yards.

21 September 2026

Brissett was seemingly dealing with some sort of thigh issue against the Seahawks. Between the Cardinals’ eighth and ninth drives, Brissett was seen briefly meeting with the training staff, who applied a heating pad to one of his legs. He tried walking after a while, but shook his head and took a seat on the bench until it was time for the Cardinals’ offense to retake the field. The veteran quarterback was constantly under pressure, though he only took two sacks. Brissett threw an intercept ...

Courtland Sutton caught 3-of-4 targets for 25 yards in the Broncos’ Week 2 win against the Jaguars.

21 September 2026

Sutton’s lone end zone target was intercepted on a poor throw from Bo Nix. Last week Sutton had just 11 yards on five targets in the Broncos’ season-opening loss to the Chiefs. Jaylen Waddle, with 148 yards in Week 2, has established himself as the clear-cut WR1 in the Denver offense. Sutton will be a touchdown-dependent WR3/4 option in Week 3 against the Rams.

Jaylen Waddle caught 8-of-10 targets for 138 yards in the Broncos’ Week 2 win against the Jaguars.

21 September 2026

Waddle was targeted on an obscene 42 percent of his pass routes against the Jaguars. He came up a yard short of a long touchdown in the first half and easily led all Denver pass catchers with ten looks from Bo Nix. Broncos OC Davis Webb’s insistence on force feeding Waddle makes the wideout too big to fail in the balanced Denver offense. Despite a letdown of a Week 1 performance against KC, Waddle should be locked into lineups until further notice. He’ll be a top-20 player in Week 3 against ...

Steelers coach Mike McCarthy “plans to pare down the game plan with the goal of executing the staple plays more consistently.”

21 September 2026

The Athletic’s Mike DeFabo penned a rather pessimistic assessment of the Steelers’ current state on Sunday night. We can’t necessarily blame him. The results have been disappointing. Perhaps thinning out the playbook will pay off. McCarthy believes QB Aaron Rodgers “could play with any volume of game plan, but at the end of the day, it’s a team game.” DeFabo notes that the Steelers moved WR DK Metcalf into the slot at times, attempting to avoid Patriots CB Christian Gonzalez’s cov ...
