Geno Smith Continues His Trend As A QB2 With QB1 Upside In Week 5

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith is a solid play at quarterback in Week 5. He is coming off a game in which he threw for 395 yards and a touchdown.

Dak Prescott Has Lower Floor In Week 5 Matchup

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott has strung together back-to-back QB1 fantasy performances, but the same should not be expected from the veteran heading into Sunday night's matchup with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Pittsburgh has the sixth-best defense against opposing quarterbacks through the season's first month, creating a tough matchup for the Cowboys' signal caller. Brandin Cooks […]

Decent Matchup Faces C.J. Stroud In Week 5

Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud faces a marquee game on Sunday with the Buffalo Bills in town.

Next up is a steady Bills defense that has blitzed […]

Sam Darnold Potential QB1 Option In Week 5

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Sam Darnold (knee) has been a top-nine fantasy QB in each of the past three weeks and faces a tough challenge in Week 5 against a stout New York Jets defense. The Jets have allowed the second-fewest passing yards and third-fewest passing touchdowns through four weeks of the season. That is likely […]

Josh Allen Keeps QB1 Status Against Houston

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen has ping-ponged between being the top fantasy football quarterback and an unstartable asset (QB28) over the past four weeks. Blowouts have been to blame. The Bills won two games by an average of 29 points and then lost in Week 4 by 25. A (hopefully) more competitive tilt against the […]

Tyler Huntley An Uninspiring Week 5 Option

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tyler Huntley will line up for his second start of the season this Sunday when the team hits the road to take on the New England Patriots.

Matthew Stafford Hovering At High-End QB2 Against Packers

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford hasn't posted the best start to the season in terms of fantasy football, but he continues to rack up yards and completions.

Is Justin Fields good at football? Maybe. Was he a great acquisition for a sixth-round pick? Absolutely. The Steelers were arguably the most surprising 3-0 team heading into last week.

Even though Love was limited on […]

Tua Tagovailoa Expected To Return When First Eligible

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) is on the Injured Reserve list after suffering another scary-looking concussion in the Week 2 loss to the Buffalo Bills. Despite the concern after suffering yet another head injury, the belief is Tagovailoa is expected to return when he's eligible in Week 8 against the Arizona Cardinals. "[Tua] has […]

Anthony Richardson Participating In Thursday's Practice

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson (oblique) logged a limited practice on Wednesday with an oblique injury, and he is back on the field for Thursday's practice session.
