The second NFL Sunday of the 2022 season has come and gone. Hopefully, you woke up on Monday morning feeling very good about how your week went. However, this week's slate of games was certainly stress-inducing for many fantasy football managers. Part of that stress was caused by a group of players who drastically underachieved […]

Aidan Hutchinson "Fine" After Suffering Leg Injury
Detroit Lions defensive end Aidan Hutchinson declared he is "fine" after suffering a leg injury during Sunday's meeting with Washington. The 2022 No. 2 overall selection certainly had himself a day, finishing six total tackles (five solo). The 22-year-old also recorded three sacks, a team record for a rookie. After Hutchinson logged only one tackle […]
Lions Defense Has Solid Day Against Washington
The Detroit Lions defense sacked Commanders quarterback Carson Wentz five times and intercepted him once in the 36-27 win against the Washington Commanders. It gave up almost 400 yards of offense, but the sacks and forced turnover were enough to produce a solid day for a fantasy D/ST. However, it's still tough to think the […]
T.J. Hockenson Has Quiet Day In Win
Detroit Lions tight end T.J. Hockenson caught just three of his seven targets for 26 yards. He had two huge drops in the win against the Washington Commanders. It was another disappointing performance for Hockenson, but any tight end who regularly commands five-plus targets will continue to be firmly on the fantasy radar. Boom weeks […]
DJ Chark Busts In Week 2
Detroit Lions wide receiver DJ Chark was targeted four times against the Washington Commanders but failed to catch a pass in the Week 2 win. He was still No. 2 in targets among Lions' wideouts, so it's too early to completely write him off. He's obviously a risky player to trust moving forward, but this […]
Josh Reynolds Grabs Touchdown In Win
Lions wide receiver Josh Reynolds caught all three of his targets for 38 yards and found the end zone in the win against the Washington Commanders. It was a nice day for the Lions' current WR3, and he paid off as a flex option in deep leagues. However, since he saw just three targets, he's […]
Amon-Ra St. Brown Booms In Week 2 Win
Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown delivered 39.4 fantasy points (PPR) in the Week 2 win against the Washington Commanders. St. Brown caught nine of his 12 targets for 116 yards and two touchdowns and rushed for another 68 yards. He looks like a strong candidate to be a WR1 moving forward, so there […]
Jamaal Williams Fails To Score In Win
Detroit Lions running back Jamaal Williams failed to reach the end zone in the win against the Washington Commanders, so he failed to deliver a solid fantasy performance. He's a touchdown-or-bust flex option in deep leagues, so there will be plenty of times he won't produce a ton of fantasy points. Williams saw 13 touches […]
D'Andre Swift Delivers On Small Workload
Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift only handled seven touches in the win against the Washington Commanders. However, he racked up 87 yards and secured a receiving touchdown. There was a known risk going into this game since Swift is dealing with an ankle injury, but he still delivered for fantasy managers. It's important to […]
Jared Goff Throws Four Touchdowns In Win
Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff threw four touchdowns to zero interceptions in the win against the Washington Commanders. He delivered 34.04 fantasy points end will end the week as a QB1. Moving forward, he can be inserted in fantasy lineups in favorable matchups. The Lions' offense looks explosive, and could quietly be one of the […]
Jeff Okudah Heads To Locker Room
Detroit Lions cornerback Jeff Okudah (calf) exited Sunday's game with a calf injury and is heading to the locker room, according to Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press. The 23-year-old logged five tackles against Washington before departing the contest. Will Harris and Bobby Brice will fill in for Okudah until he can return.
D'Andre Swift Officially Active For Week 2
Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift (ankle) is officially active for Week 2 against the Washington Commanders despite being listed as questionable. Although he may have a limited snap count on Sunday, Swift still falls in the high-end RB2 range thanks to his talent in both the running and passing attack. Backfield-mate Jamaal Williams should […]
Is D'Andre Swift Playing In Week 2? Should I Start Jamaal Williams?
As fantasy football managers are finalizing their lineups for Week 2, some last-minute injury situations will shape their decisions and separate the winners from the losers. Let's check in on the Detroit Lions, whose backfield is worth discussing ahead of Sunday's contest against the Washingon Commanders. Is D'Andre Swift playing today? Should you start Swift […]
D'Andre Swift Should Play Sunday, Might Be Limited
Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift (ankle) is expected to play on Sunday despite being listed as questionable. However, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network tweets that "the team may have to be selective about his usage." As a result, his 67 percent snap share from Week 1 could decrease further in Week 2. He still […]

Jonah Jackson Downgraded To Doubtful
Detroit Lions offensive guard Jonah Jackson (finger) has been downgraded to doubtful ahead of Sunday's meeting with the Commanders. The 25-year-old had been questionable with a finger injury, so he's certainly trending in the wrong direction. However, if Jackson is ruled out, which will likely happen, it won't be an ideal situation for a Lions […]
