Jacoby Brissett Posts Ugly Outing Off The Bench

Miami Dolphins quarterback Jacoby Brissett was not able to stop the bleeding during the Week 2 blowout loss. Brissett was asked to come in after starting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (ribs) was carted off the field. Brissett played the rest of the game, but had to air it out because the Buffalo Bills were blowing them […]

Tua Tagovailoa Suffers Bruised Ribs

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa suffered bruised ribs in Sunday's game against the Bills and will have an MRI on Monday to confirm the injury. Tua is still technically questionable to return, but we should expect to see Jacoby Brissett in at quarterback for the rest of this game. Tagovailoa was 1-for-4 for 13 yards […]

Tua Tagovailoa Questionable To Return With Rib Injury

Updating a previous report, Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (rib) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Bills with a rib injury. Tagovailoa left the field in pain in the first quarter and was carted to the locker room. It was initially unclear what the injury to Tagovailoa was, but a rib injury seems […]

Tua Tagovailoa Carted Into Locker Room

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa was carted into the Dolphins locker room on Sunday. Tagovailoa came out of the game in pain with what looked to be some kind of lower-body injury. He was walking, but was in some clear discomfort after already being sacked three times in the game. The second-year passer has dealt […]

Preston Williams Active For Week 2

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Preston Williams (foot, knee) will make his 2021 debut on Sunday against the Buffalo Bills. Williams was likely going to be the fourth receiver this season for Miami and have little fantasy relevance, but with Will Fuller out of this game for personal reasons and his status going forward unclear, there's […]

Wide Receiver Matchups to Target in Week 2

Week 1 of the NFL season is in the books and true to form, the league's top cornerbacks held their receivers in check for the most part. James Bradberry limited Courtland Sutton, Marcus Lattimore shut down Davante Adams, Jaire Alexander locked up Marquez Callaway and Jalen Ramsey more or less took Allen Robinson out of the game. The wide receiver matchup […]

Week 2 Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2021 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

What a Week 1. As we've come to expect from the NFL, we saw the unexpected. We had some young teams (like the Eagles) break out and some veteran teams (like the Packers) fall short. However, it's important that we keep our heads on straight. It was only one week and, barring injury, that shouldn't […]

NFL DFS Value Plays (Cash Games) for Week 2 on FanDuel and DraftKings

Week 1 of the NFL season is in the books, and what a week it was. We saw a great Thursday night game between the Cowboys and Bucs. A dreadful performance from the Packers versus the Falcons.

NFL Betting Picks for Week 2 (9/19/21) - Spreads, Totals, and Moneylines

Man, some tough beats in Week 1. The Dolphins were the absolutely better team against the Patriots and should have had the lead heading into the locker room, but I bet the straight up 1H winner and they tied so we count it as a loss. San Francisco scared us all against Detroit, but they […]

Finding Tight End Breakouts - Champs, Chumps, and Contenders

The tight end position is undoubtedly the worst position in all of fantasy football. Luckily for fantasy managers, this year might just be one of the best. There looks to be, by my count, six really solid tight ends fantasy managers should be able to depend on from week to week. We all know the […]

Fantasy Football Rookies to Watch in Week 2

Every week, this column will spotlight the first-year players who are ripe for a breakout performance. Oftentimes, rookies can provide some of the most value as under-the-radar options.

Preston Williams Questionable For Week 2

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Preston Williams (foot, knee) was limited in practice on Friday and is questionable for the Week 2 game against the Buffalo Bills. Williams missed the season-opening win over the New England Patriots with his foot injury and was able to practice in full on Thursday, but he's now dealing with a […]

Mike Gesicki A Bounce-Back Candidate For Week 2

Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki was held without a catch during the season opener versus the New England Patriots. Gesicki was targeted three times, but failed to haul in a single reception. Now, he'll get a matchup against the Buffalo Bills defense that allowed the most receptions to tight ends last season. The Dolphins […]

Jaylen Waddle A Risky Option In Week 2

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle made a solid NFL debut against the New England Patriots in Week 1. He hauled in four of his five targets for 61 yards and one touchdown in the win. Fantasy managers who trusted Waddle are feeling good, but it won't get easier for him in Week 2. He'll […]

DeVante Parker Unlikely To Succeed Versus Bills

Miami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker saw an increased usage with Will Fuller (personal) absent in Week 1. It's likely going to be more of the same with Fuller sidelined again versus the Buffalo Bills. Parker saw seven targets and hauled in four of them for 81 yards in the win over the New England […]

Myles Gaskin A Trustworthy Flex Option

Miami Dolphins running back Myles Gaskin saw plenty of action during the season opener. He rushed nine times for 49 yards and hauled in five receptions for 27 yards through the air. He'll get a matchup against the Buffalo Bills defense that had trouble keeping running backs out of the end zone last season. It […]
