Week 2 primetime-like fantasy intrigue sprouts from a thinning Steelers secondary as Joey Porter Jr. sits with a hamstring injury, Nick Emmanwori is ruled out, and Devon Witherspoon is doubtful for Seattle. Both defenses are hit, pushing Seattle’s offense toward high-volume passing and deep balls early. Pittsburgh’s 34-point Week 1 outburst is a reminder that a strong, aerial attack can surface even in a tougher matchup, amplifying opportunities for Jaxon Smith-Njigba and the rest of Seattle’s receivers.

The game sets up as a shootout potential, with the Seahawks eyeing increased target share for JSN-Njigba and even Cooper Kupp as a late-season-time risk-reward figure, while Pittsburgh tries to thread its own passing game through a thinner secondary. Week 1 scoring leaders Ravens and Bills underline the pace, and the 10 a.m. PT kickoff on FOX invites a high-scoring, fantasy-friendly Sunday.

Pittsburgh won’t chase Tyreek Hill, per beat writer Gerry Dulac, even as fans clamor for a superstar WR. Week 1 showed the offense clicking with four TDs to four different players, including Calvin Austin III’s TD after four catches and DK Metcalf’s four receptions in the opposing game. The takeaway: the Steelers will lean on internal weapons and line upgrades rather than a high-profile WR trade.

With Freiermuth and Jonnu Smith integral at tight end, Pittsburgh could spend assets on the offensive or defensive line if they add anyone in-season. Fantasy managers should bank on the existing playmakers—Austin, Freiermuth, Smith—while monitoring continued OL/DL improvements rather than waiting on a blockbuster addition.

Bills stormed back from a late deficit to beat the Ravens 41-40, with Josh Allen delivering a furious fourth-quarter surge that underscored Buffalo’s ceiling in a tight AFC East. The Jets, meanwhile, saw their new-look staff falter in a 34-32 loss to Pittsburgh, though Justin Fields steered a 394-yard day. Buffalo holds the all-time edge in the division and remains a central fantasy anchor, while Hall’s Jets and Gardner’s coverage shape upcoming matchups.
