Greg Ward Targeted Just Once In Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Greg Ward saw only one target in Week 2, catching it for a five yard gain. With Carson Wentz throwing 43 passes, it was disappointing to see only one go in Ward's direction. DeSean Jackson and rookie Jalen Reagor played in two-wide sets, with tight ends Zach Ertz and Dallas Goedert […]

Dallas Goedert Makes Four Catches In Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert caught four passes in a Week 2 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, gaining 30 yards. Goedert ended up second on the team in targets with eight, but couldn't do much with those targets as the entire Eagles offense struggled at home. It was still encouraging to see Goedert […]

Jalen Reagor Catches All Four Of His Targets In Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver Jalen Reagor caught all of the passes thrown his way in Week 2, totaling 41 yards. It was a nice bump after Reagor only caught one pass last week. He'll get more and more involved in the offense as time goes by, especially since he missed a lot of practice […]

Zach Ertz Catches Five Balls In A Week 2 Loss

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz caught five passes in Week 2, gaining 42 yards. Ertz was targeted seven times in a game where the Eagles offense struggled in many different aspects. Ertz was behind Dallas Goedert in targets by one, but Ertz was the one that made better use of the balls thrown his […]

DeSean Jackson Catches Six Passes In Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson caught six of his nine targets in Week 2, gaining 64 scoreless yards. The Eagles offense as a whole was a mess in this one, but Jackson was at least able to come down with the most catches and the most receiving yards on the team. A matchup with […]

Boston Scott Gets Seven Touches In Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles running back Boston Scott only touched the ball seven times in a Week 2 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. With Miles Sanders (hamstring) back on the field and leading the Eagles offense, Scott settled back into his backup role. He ran the ball four times for 19 yards, adding three catches for […]

Miles Sanders Totals 131 Yards In Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders (hamstring) looked healthy in his return to the lineup in Week 2. He ran the ball 20 times for 95 yards and a touchdown, adding three catches for 36 more yards. Sanders missed Week 1 and was questionable for this one, but he looked good and was easily the […]

Carson Wentz Struggles In A Week 2 Blowout

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz struggled in a 37-19 loss to the Los Angeles Rams in Week 2. Wentz completed 26 of his 43 pass attempts for 242 scoreless yards and two interceptions. He helped fantasy managers out a tiny bit by running in a touchdown from the one yard line. The 0-2 Eagles take […]

Sixto Sanchez Struggles For The First Time In His Career

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Sixto Sanchez struggled for the first time in his big league career in Game 1 of Friday's doubleheader. He lasted just four innings, allowing five runs on eight hits and two walks while striking out two. For the first time since being called up, Sanchez looked human. There's no cause for […]

Amari Cooper Expected To Play In Week 2

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper (ankle) is not expected to miss any time in Week 2. Cooper was a late addition to the injury report this week, which is always concerning, but it seems he is fine and fully expected to play. Cooper is a high-upside WR1 as long as he suits up, as […]

Closers and Saves Report - Week 9 Waiver Wire

It feels like the season just started. Remember drafting your team? Remember how excited you were about your roster? Well, I hope you're still excited, because it's time for playoffs (in most leagues). This has been a weird season and 40-something games was not nearly enough to determine what fantasy managers deserved an appearance in […]

Adam Wainwright Tosses A Complete Game On Wednesday

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Adam Wainwright tossed a (seven inning) complete game in Game 1 of Wednesday's double header against the Milwaukee Brewers. Wainwright allowed just two runs on four hits and one walk, striking out nine. The win improved his record to 5-1 and lowered his ERA to 2.87. Wainwright was looked at […]

Eagles Defense A Middling Week 2 Option

The Philadelphia Eagles Defense is a decent option in Week 2 fantasy lineups. They played well for a while in Week 1 before fading near the end of the game and letting the Washington Football Team take home a win. Still, they showed their upside and should be in a close enough game against the […]

Jake Elliott OK As A Week 2 Kicker

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott is a decent option in Week 2 fantasy lineups. The Eagles-Rams game could be a somewhat low-scoring affair, so neither kicker in the matchup makes for a top option, but Elliott is a consistent enough kicker to be worth a stream for desperate fantasy managers. He's ranked as the K14 […]

Dallas Goedert Looks To Build On A Great Week 1

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert is a strong fantasy starting option in Week 2. Goedert was fantastic in Week 1, essentially running the Eagles offense with eight catches for 101 yards and a touchdown. He's still officially "behind" Zach Ertz on the depth chart, but the Eagles run a majority of their offensive formations […]

Zach Ertz Still A Top Tight End Option In Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz had a mostly disappointing Week 1 despite catching a touchdown, but he remains an excellent fantasy option in any format. Ertz ended up being targeted seven times in Week 1, but caught just three passes for 18 yards. Ertz was resoundingly outplayed by Dallas Goedert in Week 1, but […]

J.J. Arcega-Whiteside Allegedly Still Exists

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver J.J. Arcega-Whiteside still plays for the Philadelphia Eagles, according to their official roster. Arcega-Whiteside was propped up all offseason as a possible breakout candidate, especially given the lack of other options at wide receiver for the Eagles. So, in Week 1, with the Eagles desperate for offense...Arcega-Whiteside was not even targeted. […]

Greg Ward Suddenly A Key Part Of The Eagles Offense

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Greg Ward has suddenly once again become a key piece of the Eagles passing game. With injuries ravaging the Eagles roster like usual, Ward saw seven targets in Week 1, catching five passes for 31 yards. The Rams Defense tends to limit deep balls, so it's possible that DeSean Jackson and […]

Jalen Reagor Not A Reliable Starter Yet

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver Jalen Reagor is not a recommended fantasy starter for Week 2 lineups. Reagor should absolutely be rostered in most formats, but he needs to show more on the field before he can be trusted in a starting lineup. The rookie was targeted four times in Week 1, catching just one […]

DeSean Jackson A Risky Week 2 Start

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson is a risky start in Week 2 fantasy lineups. In Week 1, Jackson was targeted seven times but only caught two passes, totaling 46 yards. The Rams Defense is great at limiting deep passes, and that's where Jackson's game thrives. There's always the chance that he effectively blows the […]

Corey Clement Could Have A Role In Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles running back Corey Clement could suddenly have a role in Week 2 against the Los Angeles Rams. Although both Miles Sanders (hamstring) and Boston Scott (undisclosed) are expected to play in Week 2, either or both could be limited or on a snap count, leading to opportunity for Clement. Even with the possible […]

Boston Scott Could Have Value In Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles running back Boston Scott (undisclosed) had to leave the game in Week 1 but was able to return. He's likely to run behind Miles Sanders (hamstring) in Week 2, although Sanders is no sure thing to play. Even if Sanders gets the start, he may be limited or on a snap count, giving […]

Miles Sanders Looks Ready To Go For Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders (hamstring) practiced in full on Wednesday and should be good to go for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Rams unless he experiences a new setback. The Eagles backfield was mostly a mess in Week 1 without Sanders. He'll bring a new element to the offense that should help […]

Carson Wentz Looking Like A QB2 In Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz looks like a solid QB2 option in Week 2. Taking on a tough Rams Defense and coming off a disappointing loss to the Washington Football Team, Wentz just doesn't have the weapons on offense to be trusted as a QB1. His floor is decent enough that he won't ruin your […]

Cowboys Defense Not A Strong Week 2 Option

The Dallas Cowboys Defense is not a strong Week 2 option in what could end up as a shootout against the Atlanta Falcons. While some of it came in what amounted to garbage time, the Falcons offense was still able to move the ball and put up points in Week 1 all while the Cowboys […]

Greg Zuerlein A Good Kicking Option For Week 2

Dallas Cowboys kicker Greg Zuerlein is a strong kicking option in Week 2 fantasy lineups. With the Cowboys taking on the Atlanta Falcons in what could be the highest scoring game of the week, Zuerlein should have plenty of chances to kick field goals or tack on extra points. In Week 1, "Greg the Leg" […]

Dalton Schultz Suddenly A Starter In Week 2

Dallas Cowboys tight end Dalton Schultz is suddenly a starter after Blake Jarwin (knee) went down early in Week 1. Much more of a blocking type of tight end, Schultz still saw four targets in Week 1, catching one of them for 11 yards. With a week to practice as the starter, Schultz should be […]

CeeDee Lamb Looks To Build On A Solid Debut In Week 2

Dallas Cowboys rookie wide receiver CeeDee Lamb will look to build on his solid NFL debut from Week 1. He'll have a much easier matchup against a soft Atlanta Falcons secondary that allowed four passing touchdowns in Week 1. Lamb caught five passes in his first game, gaining 59 yards. While he fell well short […]

Michael Gallup Has A Good Chance To Score In Week 2

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup is a solid fantasy option in Week 2 against the Atlanta Falcons and has a good chance to find the end zone. Gallup had a tough matchup in Week 1 but ended up with 50 yards on three catches. The Falcons Defense, however, allowed 56 passing plays that went […]

Amari Cooper Should Have A Good Week 2

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper shouldn't have too much trouble racking up fantasy points in a Week 2 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. The Falcons secondary had no answer for any of the Seahawks wide outs in Week 1 and Cooper should add to that trend. He was targeted 14 times in Week 1 […]
