Miami's right side is in flux as Austin Jackson lands on IR and James Daniels joins him, forcing a reshaped O-line for at least four games. Borom steps in at right tackle with Kion Smith sliding to right guard; Strange, Brunskill or Lamm may inherit later opportunities. Waller remains in the lineup with a two-TE look, and Wilson Jr. plus Patterson get practice-squad elevations to stay ready. Cornell Armstrong moves up to fifth cornerback as Bonner sits, while Wright is doubtful and Waller stays active.

Depth and tempo become the x-factors: the Dolphins will lean on internal depth, situational protection schemes, and occasional run-game adjustments against a brutal early schedule (Patriots, Bills, Jets, Panthers). The earliest Jackson or Daniels could return is Week 6 vs Chargers, giving Miami a light at the end of the tunnel as Eichenberg works off PUP. Fantasy angles hinge on who seizes the opportunistic reps along the line and how the TE and RB options are deployed in the shift.

Sunday's Chiefs-Eagles clash doubles as a tactical chess match. Barkley seeks a rebound after a down 2024 and a tough Super Bowl, while Spagnuolo's defense stacks the box to slow him again. Philadelphia counters with Hurts's rushing threat and a weapon-rich offense that keeps defenses guessing. KC aims to tighten gaps and finish a rebound against a loaded, high-octane unit.

From a fantasy angle, Barkley’s workload and Philly’s pace loom large. If KC invites volume, Barkley could post usable numbers; Hurts' rushing floor adds a reliable weekly anchor. The winner may hinge on a few decisive drives where run-game and quarterback mobility collide, shaping rosters and bets for the slate.

Brock Bowers returned to practice on Saturday, signaling he’s on track for Monday night against the Chargers and giving Las Vegas a major offensive spark after his knee issue last week. If he plays, the Raiders’ aerial attack gets a substantial boost, with a healthy ceiling for fantasy managers. Jackson Powers-Johnson’s concussion casts doubt on the line, potentially elevating Alex Cappa to starter duties. Elandon Roberts’ return strengthens the defense, while the Week 1 win over New England adds context for a primetime duel in Las Vegas.

Injury updates shape the fantasy landscape: Bowers active would tilt targets toward the star tight end, Powers-Johnson’s status could shift interior protection and run blocking, and Roberts’ return reinforces a defense that could foster more stops and quicker possessions. With the Chargers as the opponent, this Monday matchup carries high upside for LV’s fantasy upside if health aligns.
