Nik Bonitto Has Poor Matchup In Week 8

Denver Broncos edge rusher Nik Bonitto has a poor matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 8 and should be sat in IDP leagues that score sacks heavily.

Quinnen Williams' Slow Start Could Reverse In Week 8

New York Jets defensive tackle Quinnen Williams has been off to a slow start. He has only made half a sack and six QB hits in the first six games of the season after making 12.0 sacks in 2022. Williams has a prime opportunity to turn it around in a Week 8 matchup against the […]

Should I Pickup Taysom Hill? Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Outlook

New Orleans Saints offensive weapon Taysom Hill finished as a top-10 tight end for the second straight week.

Last season, […]

New Orleans Saints edge rusher Carl Granderson made six tackles and recovered a fumble in the Saints' 24-31 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars on Thursday Night Football.

Is Jeff Wilson Jr. A Good Fantasy Football Pickup for Week 7? Waiver Wire Outlook

The Miami Dolphins have been dominating on offense this season and are on pace to possibly break some records with how often they are putting points on the board.

Is Jaylen Warren A Good Fantasy Football Pickup for Week 7? Waiver Wire Outlook

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren was a popular handcuff in fantasy drafts this season.
