Week 7 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2022 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Although we have six weeks worth of data to help us with our start/sit decisions for fantasy kickers, bye weeks, injuries, and matchups will change the outlooks of the streamer-level players at this position.  Our Week 7 kicker rankings aim to help fantasy managers sort through all the variables that come with the kicker spot […]

Fantasy Football Injury Reports for TEs: Darren Waller, Mark Andrews, Hayden Hurst, Dalton Schultz, Logan Thomas, Cameron Brate

Week 7 is here, and with the Rams, Eagles, Bills, and Vikings on a bye, the tight end position is scarce. Injuries will make start-or-sit decisions even tougher. These are the latest injury updates as of Friday, October 21 for tight ends Darren Waller, Mark Andrews, Hayden Hurst, Dalton Schultz, Logan Thomas, and Cameron Brate. […]

Kalif Raymond Could Have Role In Week 7

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond will have a larger role in the offense if Josh Reynolds (knee) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys. D.J. Chark (ankle) has already been ruled out, so Raymond would serve as the team's No. 2 wide receiver. Even if Reynolds does play, Raymond has value […]

Jamaal Williams A Solid Flex Play Against Cowboys

Detroit Lions running back Jamaal Williams is a high-end flex play, even if D'Andre Swift (ankle, shoulder) returns to the lineup. If Swift is out, Williams has RB1 upside as the workhorse running back in one of the league's top offenses. The Dallas Cowboys are a top-six defense against fantasy running backs, but Williams gets […]

Amon-Ra St. Brown Has WR1 Ceiling

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) practiced in full this week and is off of the Lions' injury report. St. Brown has flashed his ceiling this season but was hampered by an ankle injury that slowed his production. After a bye week, he should be fresh and ready to go. His outlook should […]

Rashod Bateman Questionable For Week 7

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman (foot) is officially questionable for the team's Week 7 matchup with the Cleveland Browns. Cleveland will be without Denzel Ward (concussion) so Bateman could boom as the Ravens' No. 1 wide receiver. His floor is low in a run-heavy offense, but his ceiling is high as an explosive playmaker […]

Logan Wilson Won't Play Against Falcons

Cincinnati Bengals linebacker Logan Wilson (shoulder) has been ruled out of the Week 7 game against the Atlanta Falcons. This could've been a nice spot for Wilson against an up-and-down Atlanta offense and Cincinnati's fantasy defense/special teams unit could take a hit. The Bengals' fantasy defense/special teams unit should still be considered a top-10 play, […]

Tee Higgins Off The Injury Report

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins (ankle) is off the team's injury report and should be a full-go against the Atlanta Falcons. Atlanta has surrendered the third-most fantasy points to wide receivers, so Higgins and Ja'Marr Chase could be in for huge days. Ultimately, either can bust while the other has a great day, but […]

Fantasy Football Injury Reports For Week 7 (Friday Updates): Keenan Allen, Damien Harris, Jonathan Taylor, D'Andre Swift, Darren Waller, Rashod Bateman

Navigating injuries is a significant aspect of playing fantasy football, so our injury updates and reports for Week 7 as of Friday, October 21, 2022, will get you up to date on the latest news surrounding key fantasy cornerstones. Whether a player has missed time already or is at risk of missing their first game […]

Kenny Golladay, Kadarius Toney Out For Week 7

New York Giants wide receivers Kenny Golladay (knee) and Kadarius Toney (hamstring) were ruled out ahead of the Week 7 matchup with the Jacksonville Jaguars. This comes as no surprise, so fantasy managers shouldn't be heavily impacted. Rookie Wan'Dale Robinson should see an increased role after scoring his first touchdown last week, but Darius Slayton, […]

Hayden Hurst Not On Final Injury Report

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Hayden Hurst (groin) was not listed on the final injury report for the matchup with the Falcons, so he's good to go for Week 7. The Atlanta Falcons have allowed the fifth-most fantasy points to tight ends through six weeks, so Hurst is a top-tier streaming option in this spot. He […]

Shaquille Leonard Ruled Out For Week 7

Indianapolis Colts linebacker Shaquille Leonard (back, concussion, nose) has been ruled out for the Week 7 matchup against the Tennessee Titans. Leonard cleared the concussion protocol, but head coach Frank Reich is holding him out to make sure he gets back to full health. Without Leonard, the Colts defense isn't as strong, but in a […]

Mark Andrews To Play In Week 7

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews (knee) practiced Friday after taking Wednesday and Thursday off, so he's ready to go for Week 7 against the Cleveland Browns. Andrews and Travis Kelce have been in a tier of their own this season, so fantasy managers can breathe easy knowing he can stay in lineups. The Browns […]

Lions Defense Among Worst Plays For Week 7

The Detroit Lions fantasy defense/special teams unit is one of the worst in the NFL, and with quarterback Dak Prescott (thumb) coming back for the Dallas Cowboys, this is far from a favorable matchup. Detroit's defense is far off the fantasy radar, so this shouldn't have significance for many fantasy managers.

T.J. Hockenson A Must-Start In Week 7

Detroit Lions tight end T.J. Hockenson should be viewed as a must-start tight end after his ceiling performance in Week 4 against the Seattle Seahawks. Tight end is a tough position to navigate, so any player capable of putting up north of 150 yards is enticing. The Dallas Cowboys have been stingy against the position […]

Ja'Marr Chase A Full-Go For Week 7

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase has practiced in a limited capacity thanks to a hip injury, but head coach Zac Taylor said he'll play against the Atlanta Falcons without limitations. Chase is a must-start in any matchup, but it's worth noting the Falcons have allowed the third-most fantasy points to wide receivers through six […]

Nyheim Hines On Track To Play In Week 7

Indianapolis Colts running back Nyheim Hines (concussion) is expected to be ready to go for the Week 7 matchup with the Tennessee Titans. Hines can be played as a deep-league PPR flex option or a desperation RB slot play. With Jonathan Taylor returning from an ankle injury, Hines could see extra touches and be heavily […]

Jonathan Taylor Likely To Play Against Titans

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor (ankle) is expected to play against the Tennessee Titans in Week 7. In the matchup against the Titans in Week 4, Taylor was held to just 42 rushing yards and zero touchdowns on 20 attempts. However, he should be fresh after two weeks off, so he's a must-start once […]

Sammy Watkins Has Uncertain Status For Week 7

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Sammy Watkins (hamstring) has been designated to return from Injured Reserve, but head coach Matt LaFleur said he's not sure if the team will activate him yet for Week 7. The Packers match up with the Washington Commanders, who are among the worst defenses against fantasy wide receivers. Still, Watkins […]

Jared Goff A High-End QB2 In Week 7

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff was embarrassed by the New England Patriots in Week 5, but after a bye week, several key Lions' weapons should be healthier. Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle), while D'Andre Swift (shoulder/ankle) participated in a limited fashion. Josh Reynolds (knee) and D.J. Chark (knee) have not practiced this week, though. If St. […]

Christian McCaffrey Has Good Chance To Play In Week 7

San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey has a "good chance" to play against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 7. He likely won't have a huge role in the 49ers' offense, but he reportedly could be deployed near the end zone. McCaffrey fantasy managers will have to decide whether the risk is worth taking, […]

Titans Defense Not On The Fantasy Radar In Week 7

The Tennessee Titans defense doesn't warrant much consideration for Week 7, as it ranks as the 28th fantasy defense/special teams in points scored. The Colts are a great matchup for fantasy defenses, allowing the third-most fantasy points scored to the position, but Tennessee's secondary is a glaring issue. Matt Ryan and the Colts' offense could […]

Randy Bullock Not A Strong Option In Week 7

Tennessee Titans kicker Randy Bullock doesn't figure to be a top-tier fantasy kicker in 2022 as the Titans possess one of the worst offenses in the NFL through six weeks. Bullock could have a few boom weeks here and there, but it's smart to invest in kickers of productive offenses if fantasy managers are in […]

Kyle Philips Could See Targets In Week 7

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Kyle Philips has been quiet since leading the team in targets in his NFL debut, but with Treylon Burks (turf toe) on injured reserve, he could have a role in the offense. He has a floor as low as zero fantasy points, but he and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine will battle to earn […]

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine A Dart-Throw Flex Play

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine should operate as the Titans' No. 2 wide receiver in the absence of Treylon Burks (toe). However, the Titans have a run-heavy and sometimes run-only offensive attack, so his floor is as low as zero fantasy points. Only fantasy managers in deep leagues should consider him at all, but […]

Robert Woods A Mid-Level Flex Play In Week 7

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Robert Woods had his best fantasy performance of the season against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 4. He caught all four of his targets for 30 yards and a touchdown in the win. He'll match up with the Colts again in Week 7, but his floor is low and ceiling is […]

Derrick Henry Remains An RB1 In Week 7

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry has put together strong weeks after a slow start to the season and is back to a weekly RB1 outlook. Henry rushed for 114 yards and a touchdown against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 4 and will get a chance to do something similar in their second matchup. Henry's […]

Ryan Tannehill A Low-End QB2 in Week 7

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill could have a wide range of outcomes in his second matchup with the Indianapolis Colts. In the first matchup, he completed 17 of his 21 attempts for 137 yards and two touchdowns. Tannehill often falls below 200 yards passing in a high-volume rushing attack, so his floor isn't high. That […]

Should I Pickup Tyquan Thornton For Fantasy Football Week 7? Waiver Wire Outlook

New England Patriots wide receiver Tyquan Thornton had a boom week against the Cleveland Browns and fantasy managers surely took notice. He'll be a hot add on the waiver wire as he produced a top-five standard league and top-eight PPR league finish among wide receivers. The list of rookie wideouts with fantasy intrigue continues to […]

Is Russell Wilson Healthy or Injured? Is Wilson Playing in Week 7 Fantasy Football?

Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson has been nothing short of a disappointment in fantasy football through six weeks, but his injury status is still important to monitor as the season rolls along. Inevitably, fantasy football managers will refuse to give up on the nine-time Pro-Bowler and former Seattle Seahawk and Super Bowl Champion. In Superflex […]
