Atlanta Falcons elevate Parker Romo to handle kicking duties Sunday night against the Minnesota Vikings after ruling Younghoe Koo out non-injury related. Romo signed earlier this week following Koo's late 44-yard miss in Week 1 vs Tampa Bay, and he brings Vikings familiarity from last season.

Koo's late-game slip and 15-of-23 over his last 10 games hint at volatility in the Falcons' kicking game, while Romo's 11-for-12 FG with Minnesota in 2024 showcases a trusted leg. Kickoff is 8:20 p.m. ET.

Detroit hosts Chicago in aWeek 2 clash of 0-1 NFC North teams, with Week 1 offensive hiccups looming large. Caleb Williams and J.J. McCarthy both flashed rookie jitters, while Detroit leans on Dan Campbell and Ben Johnson to spark a more efficient attack at home. NFL bettors lean toward the Lions around -6 with a lower total, reflecting concerns over how quickly either offense will click. For fantasy managers, the game offers a high-variance canvas and potential value plays as the divisional race heats up.

Public money has driven the line movement and unders, underscoring the fear of a rocky start for both offenses. The “Ben Johnson Bowl” storyline adds intrigue, but Detroit’s ability to control the pace and pressure the Bears could define a telling Week 2 narrative. In short, Lions advantage, but the arc for Williams and McCarthy will determine which fantasy assets emerge as viable bets or streams.

Week 2 RBs sit on the cusp of bigger roles. Warren could seize control in Pittsburgh if Gainwell fumbles, while Dobbins remains the Broncos’ clear lead back with primary red-zone duties. Mason projects as the Vikings’ early-down and goal-line option, and Henderson’s role in New England is tempered by Stevenson’s volume. Montgomery faces a potential drop in workload, and Henderson’s PPR upsides are subtle at best.

Volume and consistency drive the bets here. Expect Warren and Mason to push for more responsibility if efficiency improves; Dobbins’ job appears secure for now; Henderson remains a high-risk, high-reward bench option. Monitoring Week 2 game scripts will be key to capitalizing on these backfields.

Week 2 fantasy QB rankings for 2025 spotlight the same mix of elite ceiling and plus-matchup upside that fantasy managers crave. Justin Fields’ rushing floor keeps him in QB1 territory, while Caleb Williams anchors a high-upside Bears offense as a top weekly option in Superflex. Mac Jones enters with a favorable Saints test, and Patrick Mahomes faces a stiff challenge in a rematch against Philadelphia. J.J. McCarthy and Michael Penix Jr. sit as strong Superflex plays, with several veterans and youngsters rounding out the top tiers.

The Week 2 outlook emphasizes risk-reward: injuries and known blockers shift the value of several signal-callers, from Purdy’s out to Mahomes’ matchup dynamics, shaping lineup decisions for fantasy managers who need big weeks from their QBs to carry squads into the weekend.
