BALLER MOVE: 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 78% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The New England Patriots defense hasn't exactly set the fantasy football world on fire through the first two weeks of the season.

Sneaky Starts, Pivot Plays, and Post-Waiver Pickups for Week 4 - Marvin Mims Jr., Jalin Hyatt, Roschon Johnson and Jimmy Garoppolo

Another week and another major player was knocked out for the season due to injury. First, it was Aaron Rodgers, then Nick Chubb, and last week we lost Mike Williams.

T.J. Hockenson, Hunter Henry, Hayden Hurst, Evan Engram and Darren Waller. No this is not a list of late-round fliers at the tight end position for fantasy football.

Garrett Wilson Has Been Cleared Of Any Injury

Fantasy Football Takeaways from Week 2 - Monday Musings

After an rather underwhelming Week 1 in which scoring was noticeably down, things did improve a bit in Week 2, as some fantasy managers had their studs wake up, while others realized they could be in for a long season. It's natural to have instant reactions to the football we just watched on Sunday, so […]

Jets Defense Cools Off Against Cowboys

The New York Jets surrendered 30 points to the Dallas Cowboys, recording just one sack and one forced fumble in the Week 2 loss. New York's defense struggled to slow down Dallas's offensive firepower after containing Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills in Week 1. Despite a tough outing on Sunday, the Jets D/ST should […]

Austin Seibert Hits Field Goal In Jets Debut

New York Jets kicker Austin Seibert drilled a 34-yard field goal and converted on his lone extra-point try in a 30-10 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Seibert filled in admirably for the injured Greg Zuerlein (groin) despite a limited number of opportunities. It's unclear if Zuerlein is expected to return to action in Week 3, […]

Tyler Conklin Has Solid Showing In Week 2 Loss

New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin hauled in five of his six targets for 50 yards in a 30-10 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Conklin led the Jets in receptions and was the second-most targeted player, trailing only Garrett Wilson. The 28-year-old could prove to be a reliable option for quarterback Zach Wilson as […]

Allen Lazard Does Little Against Cowboys

New York Jets wide receiver Allen Lazard secured two of his four targets for 23 yards in a Week 2 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Lazard was the third-most targeted player on New York's offense, trailing just Garrett Wilson and tight end Tyler Conklin, but this didn't translate to much production with Zach Wilson under […]

Garrett Wilson Scores Long Touchdown In Week 2

New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson finished with two receptions for 83 yards and a touchdown on eight targets in the team's 30-10 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. The 23-year-old left late in the contest following a brief trip to the medical tent but head coach Robert Saleh later confirmed that he just had […]

Dalvin Cook Bottled Up In Week 2 Loss

New York Jets running back Dalvin Cook handled four rush attempts for seven yards and added five receiving yards on one catch in the team's Week 2 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Cook also lost a fumble in the third quarter. Although he was ultimately ineffective, Cook led New York's running backs in touches and […]

Breece Hall Gets Just Four Touches In Week 2 Loss

New York Jets running back Breece Hall turned four carries into nine yards and was unable to secure either of his two targets in the team's 30-10 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. The Jets found themselves trailing early in Sunday's contest and were unfortunately never able to get the running game going. Hall was expected […]

Zach Wilson Struggles Against Dallas In Week 2

New York Jets quarterback Zach Wilson completed 12 of his 27 pass attempts for 170 yards, one touchdown, and three interceptions in a 30-10 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. He added 36 rushing yards on five carries. Wilson struggled to lead New York's offense in his first start of the 2023 campaign, but this was […]

Greg Zuerlein Inactive For Week 2

New York Jets kicker Greg Zuerlein (groin) is officially inactive for Week 2 versus the Dallas Cowboys. He had been ruled out on Saturday, prompting the Jets to sign Austin Seibert as a temporarily fill-in. Seibert isn't on the fantasy radar.

Breece Hall Suiting Up In Week 2

New York Jets running back Breece Hall (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys. He had been listed as questionable but was expected to play after practicing in full on Friday. The expectation is that Hall will have some sort of snap count, similar to Week 1. Of course, that didn't hold […]

Fantasy Football Week 2 Busts? Players Who May Disappoint Include Dak Prescott, Terry McLaurin, Joe Mixon, Jordan Love, more

Week 1 of the 2023 NFL season was far from pretty. In some games, it was downright ugly. For someone who writes a weekly busts column, it makes my life a little easier. But that's not at all fun for fantasy football, so let's go to bed and pray for more touchdowns and explosive plays […]

Week 2 of the fantasy football season is underway and despite a limited set of data, it is okay to consider benching players with name value.
