Week 2 starts with Kyren Williams as the Rams’ clear RB1, a big-volume play against Tennessee that should anchor many lineups. Lawrence and Burrow headline top QB options, with Nacua and Ridley providing elite target shares and Adams delivering steady floors. Etienne and Strange present strong midrange options, while a raft of wideouts and tight ends fill the rest of the board.

Smart Week 2 fades include rookie Cam Ward against a stingy Rams secondary, with Brenton Strange and Khalil Shakir offering safer floors in different formats. The guide maps matchup-driven starts, injuries, and upside calls to help you optimize rosters and avoid pitfalls.

Week 2 fantasy decisions hinge on rebound potential for Pacheco, Mason, and Swift. Pacheco faces a stingy Eagles front and could see his workload grow, while Mason has momentum in Minnesota and looks poised to seize bellcow duties. Swift must translate earlier flashes into efficient carries and strong pass-game work against Detroit, still offering PPR upside.

Beyond these three, Judkins, Warren, Ridley, Odunze, Olave, Williams, and Meyers offer viable flex or streamer appeal, depending on format and roster depth. The analysis emphasizes workload, matchup, and efficiency to guide Week 2 starts and sits.

Calvin Ridley enters Week 2 as Tennessee's clear WR1, but his upside is capped by Cam Ward's rookie transition and a Rams defense that was stingy with WRs last week. After a rough opener against Denver, Ridley's floor remains solid in PPR as a mid-range WR3, with limited big-play upside in standard formats. In shallow leagues or if the Titans lean on Week 2 volume, Ridley remains a viable flex option.

Titans reshuffle ahead of Week 2 versus the Rams: Corey Levin is promoted from the practice squad to the 53-man roster to bolster interior line depth behind Lloyd Cushenberry as he returns from a torn Achilles. Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson is waived, while Jordan Mims and John Ojukwu are elevated from the practice squad to provide additional depth with JC Latham sidelined and Kalel Mullings doubtful. Tennessee aims to lean on protection and run game at Nissan Stadium.
