Rams chase a 3-0 start in a highly anticipated Week 3 trip to Philadelphia, aiming to avenge last season's playoff loss. McVay praises Emmanuel Forbes’ growth—weight, decision-making and coverage—while Cobie Durant and Darious Williams step up with Ahkello Witherspoon sidelined. Davante Adams speaks to the media, and a nod to the Titans game frames defensive depth and Week 3 fantasy angles around the Rams’ secondary and the Eagles matchup.

Week 2 produced four clear fantasy signals: Stevenson reinforced his Patriots lead-back role as Henderson’s snaps faded and pass pro warts exposed the rookie; Johnston flashed elite speed on a huge 60-yard score but faces a crowded Chargers WR room and a low floor on weeks he’s quiet; Dobbins handled the lion’s share in Denver with solid rushing and a TD, while Ertz claimed steady targets and a high snap count in Washington. Early-season surges look meaningful when roles are defined, but volatility remains, especially for rookies and pass-catching options.

Jayden Reed faces 6–8 weeks out after collarbone and foot surgeries, shortening Green Bay’s aerial attack. Expect Romeo Doubs and Dontayvion Wicks to lead the Packers’ pass game as primary fill-ins, with Cedric Tillman and Wan’Dale Robinson as deeper adds on the waiver wire. If you can stash Reed in IR, do so; otherwise pivot to the safest target volume options and monitor Reed’s timeline as the season unfolds.

Two weeks into his NFL career, Ashton Jeanty is primed for a bigger role with the Raiders. Week 1 yielded 19 carries for 38 yards and a TD; Week 2 showed improvement with 43 rushing yards on 3.9 per attempt. Pete Carroll noted Jeanty was too hyped and must learn to read plays more patiently, a hurdle he believes the rookie can clear. A Week 3 clash with Washington features a mid-pack rushing defense that could unlock a breakout if Jeanty tightens reads and earns more touches.
