TreVeyon Henderson’s Week 3 outlook remains cautious. Through two games, his snap count has fluctuated (23 then 16) as Stevenson handles the bulk of early-down work, while Henderson contributes as a growing pass catcher. His rushing workload is capped for now, making him a risky RB3/Flex in PPR leagues and a bench option in standard 12-team formats. The Week 3 test against Pittsburgh’s run defense adds risk, though Henderson could carve out meaningful targets if his role continues to expand.

In deeper leagues with multiple flex spots, Henderson remains intriguing, but patience is key. The Patriots have shown a willingness to mix in Henderson when the game script allows, yet Stevenson’s consistency keeps Henderson’s upside muted this week. Expect Henderson to hover on the fringe of fantasy relevance until his role stabilizes and he proves he can convert rushing opportunities alongside his receiving usage.

Week 3 waiver targets wave up smart adds: Cam Skattebo seizes the Giants backfield, Jake Browning steps in as Cincinnati’s likely starter, and Drake Maye shows pocket poise with multi TD upside for New England. Elic Ayomanor locks in as a Titans WR2 option, Rhamondre Stevenson remains a solid NE FLEX, and Blake Corum’s increasing Rams snaps add upside behind Kyren Williams. Cooper Kupp stays a fantasy stalwart and Juwan Johnson offers TE depth for New Orleans.

RotoBaller’s analysis highlights the value in streaming, stash strategies, and deeper league pickups. Week 3 pivots around workload, opponent matchups, and roster flexibility as players emerge from uncertain roles to become viable plays in standard and PPR formats.

Jalen Mills lands on the Texans' practice squad, adding veteran depth as Houston searches for stability after an 0-2 start. Mills owns a nine-year résumé with 115 games and 91 starts, eight interceptions, and 59 passes defended, offering versatile coverage and run support for a developing secondary. Houston shuffled its practice squad again, cutting Silas Bolden and Jaylon Thomas to align with Week 3 needs. The move signals a measured, cost-controlled path to revamping a struggling defense.
