Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (head) has cleared concussion protocol and will be active for Sunday's game against the Miami Dolphins, according to NFL.com's Ian Rapoport.

Week 8 Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2022 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Writing about and analyzing fantasy football defenses oftentimes feels like a particularly insane task. I spent most of the week wondering if I had been too high on the Cardinals and Packers, two defenses who were rated highly in my weekly model but had failed to perform up until that point. I kept going back […]

Sneaky Starts, Pivot Plays and Post-Waiver Pickups for Week 8 - Latavius Murray, JaMycal Hasty, Darius Slayton, Marquise Goodwin

Every week, I typically start off talking about byes or some injuries and how there are more pivot options than ever. But we as a fantasy football playing community have not been tested like we are coming after Week 7. There were so many injuries, it was hard to keep track. And they weren’t just […]

Michael Badgley Signs With Lions

The Detroit Lions have signed kicker Michael Badgley to their active roster. The 27-year-old has spent each of the last two weeks on the practice squad. Now, it appears the team will officially sign Badgley. He was perfect on his kicks last week and appears to be a reliable option. However, the Lions offense hasn't […]

Kalif Raymond A Deep-League Flex Option

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond has fantasy appeal, even with Amon-Ra St. Brown (concussion) expected to play against the Dolphins. DJ Chark (ankle) has been placed on Injured Reserve, so Raymond will serve as the Lions' WR3 behind Josh Reynolds for the time being. Miami allows a ton of fantasy points to wideouts and […]

D'Andre Swift Off The Injury Report

Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift (ankle, shoulder) has been taken off the injury report on Friday and is expected to play in Week 8 against the Miami Dolphins. Swift will make his return to the field for the first time since Week 3 after practicing in full this week. However, given the long layoff, […]

Jamaal Williams Back To A Flex Play In Week 8

Detroit Lions running back Jamaal Williams will be rejoined by D'Andre Swift in the backfield, so his ceiling is capped, and he might return to being just a touchdown-or-bust flex play. That said, Detroit's offense should get back on track in a favorable matchup, so Williams has touchdown upside. There's also a chance Swift's touches […]

T.J. Hockenson Remains A Must-Start

Detroit Lions tight end T.J. Hockenson is a strong TE1 candidate in a matchup with the seventh-worst defense against fantasy tight ends. Miami has given up a ton of receiving yards and touchdowns to wideouts and tight ends, so all notable Lions' pass-catchers are in a good spot this week. Hockenson's floor and ceiling are […]

Amon-Ra St. Brown Listed As Questionable

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (head) is listed as questionable for the Week 8 game against the Miami Dolphins. St. Brown remains in the concussion protocol after getting wobbly in the Week 7 loss to the Detroit Lions, but he's expected to be cleared to play this Sunday against Miami. If active, the […]

Josh Reynolds A Solid Flex Play Versus Miami

Detroit Lions wide receiver Josh Reynolds (knee) practiced in full on Friday and will play against the Miami Dolphins. Since Amon-Ra St. Brown (concussion) is expected to play, Reynolds' ceiling is limited just a bit. However, Miami has allowed the sixth-most fantasy points to wideouts, so Reynolds is a strong flex option in leagues of […]

Jared Goff Is Boom-Or-Bust In Week 8

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff exploded in fantasy football to begin the season, but after two straight games without a touchdown, he's back to a boom-or-bust play. The Lions face the Miami Dolphins, who struggle mightily against quarterbacks, wide receivers, and tight ends, so Goff could be in for a huge bounce-back performance. D'Andre Swift […]

Amon-Ra St. Brown Trending In The Right Direction

Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell said that wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (head) is trending toward playing in Week 8 against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday as he works through the league's concussion protocol. St. Brown has been limited in practices this week, but as of right now, it looks like he'll play this […]

Michael Badgley Has Wide Range Of Outcomes

Detroit Lions kicker Michael Badgley's fantasy outlook is dependent on which version of the Jared Goff-led offensive attack shows up against Miami. However, the Lions have proven to take chances and be aggressive on fourth down, so he could bust even if the offense is potent. There's a scenario where he kicks a few field […]

Lions Defense Far From Fantasy Radar

The Detroit Lions defense has proven to be one of the worst units in the league through seven weeks of the regular season, so a matchup with Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle spells bad news. Detroit's defense/special teams unit hasn't been playable all year long, so Week 8 is just more of the same. Even […]
