BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-plus team leagues OWNED IN: 12% of leagues ANALYSIS: The 22-year-old product from LSU didn't do much with Blake Bortles at quarterback in his rookie season, catching only 14 passes for 174 yards and no touchdowns in 11 games.

Aaron Donald Throttled Again

Malcolm Brown Quiet In Win

Los Angeles Rams running back Malcolm Brown rushed just six times for 37 yards and caught a 10-yard pass in the Week 2 victory over the New Orleans Saints. It was a step back for Brown, who had a much larger workload in the season opener. Brown can't be relied on as a consistent contributor, […]

Todd Gurley Solid In Week 2

Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley rushed 16 times for 63 yards and a touchdown in the Week 2 win over the New Orleans Saints. He also added three catches for four yards.

Jared Goff Solid in Rams Victory

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff threw 19 passes on 28 attempts for 283 yards and one touchdown in the team’s 27-9 victory over the New Orleans Saints. Goff rebounded from his Week 1 struggles, picking apart the Saints Defense in the second half on an afternoon where both offenses started slowly. The quarterback remains […]

Robert Woods Quiet In Week 2

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Robert Woods caught two passes on two targets for 23 yards in the team’s 27-9 victory over the New Orleans Saints.

Cooper Kupp Continues To Dominate

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp caught five passes on nine targets for 120 yards in the team’s 27-9 victory over the New Orleans Saints. After a strong Week 1 performance, Kupp continues to be quarterback Jared Goff’s favorite target. The third-year receiver led the team in targets, receptions and yards, and he also […]

Tyler Higbee Injured Sunday

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee (chest) has been ruled out for the rest of the Week 2 game against the Saints with a chest injury.
