Taysom Hill Lined Up For More Touches

New Orleans Saints quarterback/tight end Taysom Hill caught two of his four targets for 21 yards, took four carries for 20 yards, and completed his lone pass attempt for a three-yard gain in Week 8 against the Chargers. He also forced a fumble while playing on special teams that resulted in a safety. It was […]

Juwan Johnson Has Favorable Matchup

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson had three catches for 48 yards in Week 8, matching his season highs in both categories set in Week 6. Johnson is in line to better those numbers in Week 9 when the Saints go up against the Carolina Panthers, who have allowed more fantasy points per game […]

Cedrick Wilson Jr. Tagged As Questionable

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Cedrick Wilson Jr. (hip) logged a DNP to start the week followed by a pair of limited practices on Thursday and Friday. He will carry a questionable tag going into Week 9's matchup against the Carolina Panthers. The seldom-used wideout saw an uptick in usage in Weeks 6 and 7 […]

Mason Tipton Hard To Trust For Week 9

A week after leading his team in targets, New Orleans Saints wide receiver Mason Tipton drew just two in Week 8 against the Los Angeles Chargers and finished the game with two catches for 14 yards. With fellow rookie Bub Means (ankle) declared out and Cedrick Wilson Jr. (hip) tagged as questionable for Week 9, […]

Chris Olave Looking For More Against Panthers

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave had his first 100-yard game of the season in Week 8 against the Los Angeles Chargers. In Week 9, Olave has a weaker opponent in the Carolina Panthers and a better quarterback as Derek Carr is set to return to the field for the first time since injuring […]

Alvin Kamara Cleared For Week 9

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (hand/ribs) was limited in practice all week, nursing a fracture in both his hand and a rib. Kamara carries no injury designation going into Week 9's game against the Carolina Panthers, however. In Week 1, Kamara had a total of 20 touches for 110 scrimmage yards and a […]

Taysom Hill Forces Safety In Week 8

New Orleans Saints "quarterback" Taysom Hill had 20 rushing yards on four carries, caught two of four targets for 21 receiving yards, and connected with Alvin Kamara on his lone pass attempt for a three-yard gain in Sunday's loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. A jack of all trades for the offense, his biggest contribution […]

Chris Olave Has 100-Yard Day

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave was targeted 14 times and made eight catches for 107 yards in Sunday's 26-8 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. He led the team in each category in his first action since suffering a concussion just minutes into Week 6's game against the Buccaneers. It was the first […]

Alvin Kamara Rebounds In Loss

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara rushed for 67 yards on 10 carries and had another 55 yards on six receptions in Sunday's 26-8 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. It was the first time since Week 4 that Kamara had over 100 yards from scrimmage. The efficiency was a welcome change compared to […]

Jake Haener Relieves Struggling Spencer Rattler

New Orleans Saints quarterback Jake Haener completed 9 of his 17 pass attempts for 122 yards and gained 10 rushing yards on two carries in Sunday's loss to the Los Angeles Chargers.

Spencer Rattler Lifted Early In Loss

New Orleans Saints quarterback Spencer Rattler completed 12 of 24 pass attempts for 156 yards in Sunday's 26-8 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. The rookie's third start in place of Derek Carr (oblique) featured the same inconsistent play as was seen in his other appearances. Rattler avoided big mistakes in the first half and […]

Bub Means A Desperation Flex In Week 8

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Bub Means had three catches for 37 yards on five targets in Week 7's loss to the Denver Broncos. The rookie has seen an uptick in work over the last two weeks in the wake of a rash of injuries that hit the Saints' skill players, namely Chris Olave (concussion) […]

Saints D/ST A Potential Streamer In Week 8

The New Orleans Saints defense had a solid start to the season, racking up 11 sacks and seven turnovers in their first three weeks while allowing no more than 19 points to their opponents. However, over their last four games, the unit has not lived up to those standards and gave up an average of […]

Blake Grupe A Bad Bet For Week 8

New Orleans Saints placekicker Blake Grupe was good on his only field goal attempt in Week 7. The make, from 35 yards out, kept Grupe perfect on field goal tries this season. He also converted his only extra-point attempt of the night. Facing the stiff defense of the Denver Broncos, the Saints found it hard […]

Juwan Johnson Ready For Week 8

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson (shoulder) was limited in practice all week but carries no designation going into Sunday's matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. Over the last two weeks with Spencer Rattler under center, Johnson has six receptions for 66 yards on nine targets. The production represents a modest bump up over […]

Cedrick Wilson Jr. Out For Week 8

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Cedrick Wilson Jr. (hip) was the Saints' most productive fantasy player in Week 7, catching six of his eight targets for 57 yards and a garbage-time touchdown. Unfortunately, he will not have a chance to repeat that feat in Week 8. Wilson logged a limited practice to start the week […]

Kendre Miller Just A Bench Stash

New Orleans Saints running back Kendre Miller ended up as the team's leading rusher in Week 7, taking six carries for 36 yards. Featured back Alvin Kamara (hand, ribs) is nursing injuries that may finally be impacting his productivity (2.5 YPC in the last three weeks) which might open the door for Miller to see […]

Chris Olave Expected To Return In Week 8

After starting the week with a limited practice session, New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave logged back-to-back full practices ahead of the team's Week 8 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. Olave suffered a concussion on the Saints' third play from scrimmage in Week 6 and was removed from that game accordingly and sat […]

Alvin Kamara Good To Go For Week 8

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (hand, ribs) was limited in practice all week but carries no designation for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Chargers. Kamara revealed earlier this week that he broke his hand in Week 5 against the Chiefs and has been playing through the pain ever since. That may explain […]

Spencer Rattler Not On Fantasy Radar In Week 8

New Orleans Saints quarterback Spencer Rattler popped up on the team's injury report this week with a hip injury but was able to practice in full. Rattler went down awkwardly near the end of the Saints' Week 7 matchup against the Broncos and was removed from that game to avoid aggravating the injury. With Derek […]

Regression Due For Rams D/ST

The Los Angeles Rams' defense turned in their best game of the season in Week 7, holding the Las Vegas Raiders to 15 points and registering two sacks, three interceptions, and a fumble recovered and returned for a touchdown. It was the first time in 2024 that Los Angeles kept an opponent under 24 points […]

Joshua Karty Not A Good Option In Week 8

Los Angeles Rams kicker Joshua Karty's only field goal attempt in Week 7 caromed off the right upright for a miss, his second of 2024. Karty also missed an extra point attempt for the second time in as many contests, having missed a chance in the Rams' Week 5 contest against the Green Bay Packers […]

Colby Parkinson An Easy Pass In Week 8

Los Angeles Rams tight end Colby Parkinson went from a high of 13 targets to matching a season-low of two on either side of the team's Week 6 bye. Even with the multi-week absences of Cooper Kupp (ankle) and Puka Nacua (knee), Parkinson never made real headway in establishing himself as a bankable option in […]

Blake Corum Better Off Benched In Week 8

Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum has seen minimal play on offense and Week 7 was no different. The third-rounder out of Michigan took three carries for 11 yards in the Rams' 20-15 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Kyren Williams has a firm grasp on the top of the running back depth chart […]

Demarcus Robinson A Risky Play With Cooper Kupp Returning

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Demarcus Robinson could not take advantage of the multi-week absences of teammates Cooper Kupp (ankle) and Puka Nacua (knee). In Week 7's game against the Las Vegas Raiders, Robinson experienced a new low, finishing with a single catch for nine yards, bringing his reception total to 13 through the Rams' […]

Tutu Atwell Has Favorable Matchup In Week 8

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Tutu Atwell's team-high nine targets in Week 7 translated to six catches for 51 yards against the Las Vegas Raiders. Atwell achieved PPR relevance in recent weeks, averaging five catches and 71 yards per game going back to Week 3. The influx of targets he saw over the last two […]

Kyren Williams Looks To Extend TD Streak In Week 8

Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams gained 76 rushing yards and scored two touchdowns on 21 carries against the Raiders in Week 7. It was his second multi-score game of 2024 and the ninth consecutive game dating back to last season where he made his way to the end zone. In Week 8 the […]

Matthew Stafford A QB2 In Week 8

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford has been a fantasy dud since losing Cooper Kupp (ankle) to injury in Week 2. His last game epitomized his struggles as the once prolific passer went 14-for-23 for 154 yards and an interception against the Las Vegas Raiders, marking the third time Stafford failed to crack double digits […]

Cedrick Wilson Jr. Scores Garbage-Time TD

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Cedrick Wilson Jr. had six catches for a team-high 57 yards and a touchdown in Thursday's loss to the Denver Broncos. Wilson, along with Bub Means and Mason Tipton saw more opportunities than usual as a result of Chris Olave (concussion) and Rashid Shaheed (knee) being inactive in Week 7. […]

Kendre Miller Is Leading Rusher In 2024 Debut

New Orleans Saints running back Kendre Miller's 36 rushing yards was all it took to be the team's leading rusher in Thursday's 33-10 loss to the Denver Broncos. He also had two catches on three targets that netted one receiving yard. Miller had an eight-yard carry in the first quarter but didn't touch the ball […]
