Those numbers are good enough for fourth and fifth amongst league […]

Alex Ciulla 2 weeks agoTyler Boyd's Performance In Loss Negligible
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Tyler Boyd caught 2-of-4 targets in Sunday's 20-13 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. The 30-year-old was a non-factor in Week 17, notching his fourteenth outing in 2024 with three or fewer receptions. It's unlikely that the veteran fell off so drastically; instead, questionable quarterback play is the cause of his subpar […]

Alex Ciulla 2 weeks agoKevin Austin Jr. Can Be Safely Avoided Vs. Raiders
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Kevin Austin Jr. will not be a viable fantasy option in his meeting with the Las Vegas Raiders this Sunday.

Alex Ciulla 2 weeks agoCam Akers Not Recommended For The Fantasy Finals
Minnesota Vikings running back Cam Akers should not be started in this Sunday's divisional tilt against the visiting Green Bay Packers. The 25-year-old's workload has mostly been contingent on game script and the health of backfield mate Aaron Jones in 2024. Akers had gotten some extended run when Jones was dinged up or the game […]
