Fantasy Football: Tracking the latest NFL injury news for key players in Week 3 - Yahoo Sports

Fantasy Football: Tracking the latest NFL injury news for key players in Week 3 - Yahoo Sports

Week 2 injuries reshape fantasy NFL rosters. Burrow's toe surgery outs him for months; Browning starts, elevating Chase's and Higgins' ceiling only if Cincinnati stabilizes at QB. Reed's 6-8 week absence widens Packers targets to Wicks, Doubs, and Kraft while Love powers the offense. Ekeler's season-ending injury opens Croskey-Merritt as Washington’s lead back, with Jones’ hamstring risk looming. Fields' concussion creates Jets QB uncertainty, boosting Tyrod Taylor as a streamer. Week 3 brings more volatility as backfields and pass-catching duties shift to fill the gaps.

With Burrow out, should Browning be started this week or should you chase a veteran QB on waivers instead?Which Packers pass-catchers become value adds after Reed’s injury?Does Croskey-Merritt become a must-add after Ekeler’s injury?How does Fields' status affect Wilson and Jets’ playoff outlook?

Packers News, 9/15: Packers have answered every question through two weeks | Acme Packing Company

Green Bay sits at 2-0 behind a blistering offense and a disruptive, versatile defense. Jordan Love is threading deep throws and orchestrating timely drives, while the run game pieces keep defenses honest. When challenged, the Packers answer with crafted, chain-moving sequences that extend leads. Week 6 looming: Cincinnati visits with Joe Burrow sidelined by a toe injury and Jake Browning stepping in, adding a shifting dynamic for fantasy managers. The home team’s mix of explosive plays and bend-don’t-break defense makes for a compelling fantasy landscape.

With Love’s deep-ball efficiency and the Packers’ fourth-quarter resilience, should he be ranked as a top-5 fantasy QB rest of season?Which Packers skill players stand out as reliable fantasy bets given the new offense and run-game wrinkles?How does the Packers’ defense impact opposing quarterbacks, and what does that mean for DFS upside this season?What impact does Burrow’s injury and Browning’s start have on Week 6 fantasy planning?

Washington Commanders: One thing we learned from NFL Week 2 slate

Week 2 spotlight: Lions roll past the Bears 52-21 as Jared Goff dazzles with 334 yards and five TDs, and Detroit’s run game resurges for 177 yards. Washington stalls offensively in a loss to Green Bay, while the Packers look the part of the NFC’s top unit with a fast, young defense and chatter about adding impact players. Early-season overreactions loom, yet Week 3 looms as a potential clarifier: Lions host the slumping Commanders, and Green Bay’s defense sits as a fantasy stalwart.

Given Week 2 outcomes, which Lions players should fantasy managers prioritize in Week 3 against the Raiders?How does Green Bay’s early defensive success affect fantasy outlook for GB players and potential streamers?What Week 3 angles could lift Commanders’ fantasy production if Washington pivots to a quicker offense?Does Week 2’s overreaction trend reveal anything about how to approach early-season betting or fantasy leagues going forward?

Fantasy football waiver wire advice: 10 players to consider with your Week 3 priority | SB Nation

Fantasy football waiver wire advice: 10 players to consider with your Week 3 priority | SB Nation

Week 3 waiver wire targets lean toward clear role opportunities and workload signals. Cam Skattebo surged to lead Giants backs, Troy Franklin posted 83% snap share with 8 receptions, Bhayshul Tuten earned 10 touches in limited snaps, and Juwan Johnson and Zach Ertz flashed steady target ceilings. Daniel Jones added fantasy value with rushing and passing, Wan’Dale Robinson and Dontayvion Wicks offered PPR upside, while Rhamondre Stevenson and Quinshon Judkins sit as mid-round options with upside based on volume.

Which Week 3 waiver target has the clearest path to 15+ touches in standard leagues this week?Which waiver WR offers the strongest Week 3 upside on this list?Which Week 3 waiver TE should you prioritize for steady PPR value?Is Daniel Jones a viable Week 3 streaming option for the Colts?
