"Here’s a look back at Week 2’s action and fantasy advice for the week ahead:"

WEEK 2 RECAP

— Bills 31, Dolphins 10: Miami QB Tua Tagovailoa suffered another concussion late in the third quarter and was quickly ruled out. The Dolphins placed Tagovailoa on injured reserve this week with no set timetable for his return. Skylar Thompson is the next man up, which is a significant downgrade for all the premium assets on Miami’s offense, especially Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle. I actually believe De’Von Achane sees a boost in value after surpassing 20 carries for the first time in his NFL career and earning 29 touches with Raheem Mostert sidelined. The arrow is pointing up for tight end Jonnu Smith as well. Smith had six receptions (seven targets) for 53 yards primarily due to a negative game script, something the Dolphins may face regularly without Tua.

— Saints 44, Cowboys 19: I don’t believe New Orleans will score 40 points every week, but I do believe new offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak can help QB Derek Carr crack the top-10 in fantasy at his position for the first time since 2016, his third season with the Raiders.

— Buccaneers 20, Lions 16: I wrote last week Bucky Irving looked like a more explosive runner than Rachaad White against Washington. Well, the rookie looked like the more explosive runner against Detroit too, and now White is reportedly dealing with a minor groin injury (Is there such a thing?).

— Packers 16, Colts 10: Green Bay has an embarrassment of riches at receiver. Some believe Jayden Reed is WR1. Others are still waiting for Christian Watson to pay off the promise of a four-game stretch during his rookie season when he scored eight TDs. Then there are the Dontayvion Wicks truthers — Wicks had a 14-yard TD reception vs. Indy — but Romeo Doubs is the actual WR1 and he’s currently being rostered at a ridiculously low rate. Lucky for you, his roster percentage will likely remain suppressed until Jordan Love returns so grab and stash if he’s available in your league. Love might be back sooner than you think.

— Jets 24, Titans 17: Rookie running back Braelon Allen touched the ball nine times and scored twice. I don’t think he’s a threat to Breece Hall, but I believe Allen’s good enough to earn eight-to-10 touches per week and vulture an occasional TD from Hall. If Hall were to get hurt, Allen would have RB1 upside.

— Vikings 23, 49ers 17: Coach Kyle Shanahan told reporters on Monday that Deebo Samuel will miss “a couple” of weeks with a calf strain sustained late in Sunday’s loss at Minnesota. Jordan Mason, Brandon Aiyuk and George Kittle will be the primary beneficiaries with Samuel and Christian McCaffrey sidelined, but Jauan Jennings will have flex appeal most weeks with WR3 upside while both superstars are out. If you watched the Super Bowl, you know what he’s capable of.

— Seahawks 23, Patriots 20 (OT): Hunter Henry has been a fantasy starter on and off throughout his career. Only George Kittle had more fantasy points in Week 2. Henry caught 109 of Jacoby Brissett’s 149 passing yards against Seattle, while seeing a career-high 12 targets — the yardage was a career-high as well.

— Commanders 21, Giants 18: Only Baker Mayfield (24.7 points), Derek Carr (22.1), Jalen Hurts (21.6), Kyler Murray (21.4) and Lamar Jackson (21.3) are averaging more fantasy points per game than Washington rookie QB Jayden Daniels (20.8).

— Chargers 26, Panthers 3: The vibes around Quentin Johnston were nothing but positive the entire offseason. His hands, the one true knock on him coming into the league, have improved and it’s clear Justin Herbert has noticed. With DJ Chark on IR and Joshua Palmer banged up, Johnston led L.A. with six targets, five receptions, 51 yards and two touchdowns at Carolina. It wouldn’t surprise me if Johnston ends up Herbert’s WR1 while Ladd McConkey experiences his own rookie growing pains.

— Browns 18, Jaguars 13: Jerry Jeudy is the overall WR27 in standard formats (WR28 in PPR) through two weeks and looks like he could become the WR1 for Cleveland if Deshaun Watson and Amari Cooper are unable to get on the same page.

— Raiders 26, Ravens 23: Las Vegas’ rookie Brock Bowers is the only tight end to surpass double-digit fantasy points in PPR formats in both games this season. Bowers currently leads his position with 17 targets this season, at least eight in each game.

— Cardinals 41, Rams 10: Marvin Harrison Jr. became the first rookie with four or more receptions and two or more TDs in a first quarter since his father did it in 1996 with the Indianapolis Colts. Amazingly, Junior had four receptions for 130 yards and two scores in the first nine minutes of the game against L.A., but produced zilch the rest of the way.

— Steelers 13, Broncos 6: Justin Fields is only the overall QB22 through two weeks, but he’s also shown significant improvement across the board in his game. His big-time throw rate is the highest it’s been, and he’s dramatically lowered his turnover-worthy throw rate, according to Pro Football Focus. Also, his completion percentage is up almost 10 points higher than his career average. Fields finished as the overall QB6 in 2022 and was tied for 12th in fantasy points per game with Patrick Mahomes last season for the Bears. He had five games with 24-plus fantasy points compared to Mahomes’ one in 2023, and played three fewer games due to injury. Frankly, I think Russell Wilson is cooked. Fields can be a long-term solution at QB for Pittsburgh, and is capable of producing as a top-10 option in fantasy going forward, even with Arthur Smith as his offensive coordinator.

— Chiefs 26, Bengals 25: Starting running back Isiah Pacheco fractured his fibula in Kansas City’s victory over Cincinnati and was originally thought to be out 6-8 weeks, but it’s possible he misses the rest of this season. Carson Steele, an undrafted rookie out of UCLA (he also played at Ball State), handled the between-the-tackles runs after Pacheco went down and could see a more prominent role on early downs. Samaje Perine has been primarily used in a pass-catching role, and will also likely be utilized in a more robust way. Clyde Edwards-Helaire is eligible to return from the reserve/non-football illness list after Week 4, so Steele might not be the long-term solution. GM Brett Veach also brought back Kareem Hunt, but it’ll likely take a few weeks for Hunt to get reacclimated to K.C.’s offense.

— Texans 19, Bears 13: D’Andre Swift has struggled mightily as a rusher with Chicago so far, producing only 48 yards on 24 carries. Swift’s four receptions (five targets) for 24 yards was his saving grace at Houston, but he’s splitting goal-line and short-yardage snaps with Khalil Herbert. Travis Homer also took most of the third-down snaps against the Texans, which means Swift could be on a slippery slope in fantasy if he doesn’t start averaging more than two yards per carry.

— Falcons 22, Eagles 21: Tyler Allgeier finished as the overall RB34 in standard formats (RB36 in PPR) last season playing second fiddle to Bijan Robinson, including scoring double-digit fantasy points in Week 16 and 17. Allgeier produced 65 total yards on 10 touches at Philadelphia. Few backups have his upside.

Feel free to hit me up @UTEddieBrown on X, formerly known as Twitter, with any specific lineup questions I don’t cover in my posts.

Here’s my best bets for Week 3:

NEW ENGLAND AT N.Y. JETS

— Obvious starters: Rhamondre Stevenson (NE), Breece Hall (NYJ), Garrett Wilson (NYJ), Jets D/ST.

— Who to start: Hunter Henry (NE) is the overall TE5 across all formats, and should continue to benefit from the conservative nature of the Patriots’ offense.

— Who to sit: Jacoby Brissett (NE) faces a defense allowing the sixth-fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks. I’m fading DeMario Douglas (NE) and Ja’Lynn Polk (NE) due to a lack of usage and a difficult matchup on the road. I’m fading the Patriots D/ST on the road against an offense allowing the eighth-fewest fantasy points to opposing defenses. Aaron Rodgers (NYJ) only has value in Superflex formats due to a difficult matchup. Mike Williams (NYJ) and Allen Lazard (NYJ) are both TD-dependent. Tyler Conklin (NYJ) remains TD-dependent against a defense that has only allowed six receptions for 50 yards to tight ends in two games.

— Sleeper: The potential for double-digit touches and an uptick in targets gives Antonio Gibson (NE) flex appeal in deeper leagues.

N.Y. GIANTS AT CLEVELAND

— Obvious starters: Browns D/ST.

— Who to start: Dynamic rookie receiver Malik Nabers (NYG) is on the fast-track to becoming an obvious starter if the Giants continue to force-feed him targets the way they have in the first two games. Devin Singletary (NYG) maintains flex appeal despite the difficult matchup with at least 14 touches in each game this season. Amari Cooper (CLE) maintains WR3/flex upside with at least eight targets in each game this season. Jerome Ford (CLE) faces a defense allowing the eighth-most fantasy points to running backs. Jerry Jeudy (CLE) maintains flex appeal with at least six targets in each game this season.

— Who to sit: I’m fading Wan’Dale Robinson (NYG) against a tough Browns secondary. Daniel Jones (NYG) is a no-go against a good defense on the road. There are better streaming options than the Giants D/ST. David Njoku (CLE) still hasn’t practiced (as of Thursday) since suffering a high-ankle sprain Week 1 against the Cowboys. Deshaun Watson (CLE) only has value in Superflex formats until we see consistency.

— Sleeper: D’Onta Foreman (CLE) had 15 touches against the Jaguars last week and faces a defense that has allowed 279 rushing yards to running backs in two games.

GREEN BAY AT TENNESSEE

— Obvious starters: Josh Jacobs (GB), Calvin Ridley (TEN), Tony Pollard (TEN).

— Who to start: The Packers D/ST face an offense allowing the most fantasy points to opposing defenses.

— Who to sit: Jordan Love (GB) was initially expected to miss 3-6 weeks with an MCL sprain, so I don’t expect him to return this week despite the questionable tag. Jayden Reed (GB) is dealing with a calf issue and missing Love. Romeo Doubs (GB) and Christian Watson (GB) are missing Love and face a defense allowing the third-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers. Dontayvion Wicks (GB) remains a boom-or-bust option. Luke Musgrave (GB) and Tucker Kraft (GB) face a defense allowing the second-fewest fantasy points to tight ends. Malik Willis (GB) exceeded expectations against the Colts, but still only has value in the deepest Superflex formats. It appears DeAndre Hopkins (TEN) is still recovering from his knee injury, and hasn’t been fully deployed yet. Tyjae Spears (TEN) is dealing with an ankle injury and has had exactly eight touches in each game this season. Chig Okonkwo (TEN) remains TD-dependent with only five targets in two games. Will Levis (TEN) has been turnover-prone in the early going.

— Sleeper: Tyler Boyd (TEN) has exactly five targets in each game this season and could benefit if the Titans don’t want to test the Packers’ ball-hawking secondary deep.

CHICAGO AT INDIANAPOLIS

— Obvious starters: Jonathan Taylor (IND), Michael Pittman Jr. (IND), Anthony Richardson (IND).

— Who to start: DJ Moore (CHI) faces a defense allowing the fifth-most fantasy points to wide receivers. D’Andre Swift (CHI) faces a defense that has allowed exactly 175 rushing yards to running backs in each game this season. Only the Vikings D/ST have scored more fantasy points than the Bears D/ST in two games. Alec Pierce (IND) is the overall WR6 in standard formats (WR8 in PPR) through two games with at least three receptions, 56 yards and a TD in both. The Colts D/ST deserve streaming consideration at home against a rookie QB.

— Who to sit: Keenan Allen (CHI) is still dealing with a heel injury that sidelined him last week against the Texans. There’s been flashes, but we still can’t trust Caleb Williams (CHI) in fantasy yet. Khalil Herbert (CHI) remains TD-dependent with only six touches in two games. Cole Kmet (CHI) remains TD-dependent with only five receptions (six targets) for 31 yards in two games. Adonai Mitchell (IND) remains a boom-or-bust option with only two receptions (nine targets) for 32 yards in two games.

— Sleeper(s): Rome Odunze (CHI) has flex appeal against a defense that has allowed three TDs to wide receivers in two games, and with Allen possibly out again. Josh Downs (IND) was a full practice participant Wednesday and appears set to make his 2024 debut against the Bears.

HOUSTON AT MINNESOTA

— Obvious starters: Nico Collins (HOU), Stefon Diggs (HOU), CJ Stroud (HOU), Justin Jefferson (MIN), Aaron Jones (MIN).

— Who to start: Joe Mixon (HOU) is an obvious starter if he’s active. Tank Dell (HOU) maintains WR3/flex upside despite the slow start to the season. Dalton Schultz (HOU) faces a defense allowing the fifth-most fantasy points to tight ends. The Texans D/ST is eighth in fantasy points through two games on the strength of nine sacks and three interceptions. The Vikings D/ST has produced at least two turnovers and five sacks in each game this season.

— Who to sit: Dameon Pierce (HOU) only has value if Mixon is out with an ankle injury — monitor Pierce’s hamstring injury. Jordan Addison (MIN) is still dealing with an ankle injury that sidelined him last week against the 49ers. Ty Chandler (MIN) only has flex value if Jones is out with a hip injury against a defense allowing the third-fewest fantasy points to running backs. I’m fading Sam Darnold (MIN) against a good Texans defense, while most of his weapons are banged-up. Jalen Nailor (MIN) is a boom-or-bust option since two of his four receptions this season have gone for a TD (and Addison may sit again).

— Sleeper: Cam Akers (HOU) could see a significant increase in usage if Mixon and Pierce are both sidelined.

PHILADELPHIA AT NEW ORLEANS

— Obvious starters: Saquon Barkley (PHI), Jalen Hurts (PHI), DeVonta Smith (PHI), Dallas Goedert (PHI), Alvin Kamara (NO), Chris Olave (NO).

— Who to start: Derek Carr (NO) is the overall QB2 through two weeks and the only quarterback who has at least 20 fantasy points in both games this season. Rashid Shaheed (NO) faces a defense allowing the second-most fantasy points to wide receivers. The Saints D/ST are seventh in fantasy points through two games and usually tougher at home.

— Who to sit: The Eagles D/ST haven’t generated much pressure or showcased much playmaking ability thus far and face the hottest offense on the planet in their building. Taysom Hill (NO) remains the ultimate boom-or-bust option — monitor his chest injury. Juwan Johnson (NO) remains TD-dependent with only two receptions on three targets in two games.

— Sleeper: Jahan Dotson (PHI) is a lottery ticket if you’re in need in deeper leagues while AJ Brown is out.

L.A. CHARGERS AT PITTSBURGH

— Obvious starters: J.K. Dobbins (LAC).

— Who to start: The Chargers D/ST and Steelers D/ST are the only defenses besides the Vikings to score double-digit fantasy points in both games this season. Usage helps Najee Harris (PIT) maintain RB2/flex upside despite the difficult matchup — Harris has at least 18 touches in each game this season.

— Who to sit: Justin Herbert (LAC) is the overall QB26 through two games and faces a defense allowing the second-fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks. Ladd McConkey (LAC) and Quentin Johnston (LAC) face a defense allowing the eighth-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers. Joshua Palmer (LAC) remains less than 100 percent (currently dealing with calf and elbow injuries). Gus Edwards (LAC) is TD-dependent against a defense allowing the fifth-fewest fantasy points to running backs. Hayden Hurst (LAC) remains TD-dependent with only three receptions (five targets) for 38 yards in two games. George Pickens (PIT) faces a defense allowing the second-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers. Justin Fields (PIT) faces a defense allowing the fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks. Jaylen Warren (PIT) only has flex value in deeper PPR formats this week.

— Sleeper: Pat Freiermuth (PIT) faces a defense allowing the 10th-most fantasy points to tight ends (at least five receptions to the position in each game this season).

DENVER AT TAMPA BAY

— Obvious starters: Mike Evans (TB), Rachaad White (TB), Chris Godwin (TB).

— Who to start: Both Javonte Williams (DEN) and Jaleel McLaughlin (DEN) have flex appeal against a defense allowing the fifth-most fantasy points to running backs. Volume helps Courtland Sutton (DEN) maintain WR3/flex upside — 16 targets in two games. Baker Mayfield (TB) is the overall QB1 through two games. The Buccaneers D/ST deserve streaming consideration at home against a rookie QB, and an offense allowing the fifth-most fantasy points to opposing defenses.

— Who to sit: Bo Nix (DEN) is the overall QB23 through two games. Marvin Mims (DEN) remains a boom-or-bust option with only three targets in two games. Bucky Irving (TB) is a borderline flex play in the deepest leagues. Cade Otton (TB) remains TD-dependent with only four targets in two games.

— Sleeper: Josh Reynolds (DEN) is the overall WR33 across all fantasy formats through two games (at least four receptions in both games).

CAROLINA AT LAS VEGAS

— Obvious starters: Davante Adams (LV), Brock Bowers (LV).

— Who to start: Veterans Diontae Johnson (CAR) and Adam Thielen (CAR) have flex upside after Bryce Young was benched. Chuba Hubbard (CAR) has flex appeal against a defense allowing the 10th-most fantasy points to running backs. Zamir White (LV) has RB2/flex upside against a defense allowing the second-most fantasy points to running backs. The Raiders D/ST faces an offense allowing the third-most fantasy points to opposing defenses. Gardner Minshew (LV) is a solid streaming option against a defense that has allowed five TD passes in two games.

— Who to sit: Xavier Legette (CAR) remains a boom-or-bust option after not receiving a target against the Chargers. Miles Sanders (CAR) remains TD-dependent as the second option behind Hubbard. You should have better options than Andy Dalton (CAR) on the road against this pass rush. Jakobi Meyers (LV) remains TD-dependent with only eight targets in two games.

— Sleeper: Alexander Mattison (LV) has scored a TD in each game this season and has a premium matchup this week.

MIAMI AT SEATTLE

— Obvious starters: Tyreek Hill (MIA), De’Von Achane (MIA), DK Metcalf (SEA).

— Who to start: Raheem Mostert (MIA) has flex appeal if he’s active. Jaxon Smith-Njigba (SEA) is currently the overall WR34 in standard formats (WR24 in PPR) on the strength of his breakout performance — 12 receptions (16 targets) for 117 yards — against the Patriots last week. Zach Charbonnet (SEA) faces a defense allowing the sixth-most fantasy points to running backs. The Seahawks D/ST are a solid streaming candidate at home with Skylar Thompson making his first start of the season for the Dolphins.

— Who to sit: It’s hard to sit someone like Jaylen Waddle (MIA), but the matchup and QB situation are both difficult. I doubt Kenneth Walker (SEA) returns this week, but monitor his status with an oblique injury. Tyler Lockett (SEA) is clearly still dealing with a thigh injury that’s been bothering him since August. I’m fading Geno Smith (SEA) against a defense allowing the third-fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks.

— Sleeper: Jonnu Smith (MIA) faces a defense allowing the sixth-most fantasy points to tight ends.

BALTIMORE AT DALLAS

— Obvious starters: Lamar Jackson (BAL), Derrick Henry (BAL), Mark Andrews (BAL), Zay Flowers (BAL), CeeDee Lamb (DAL), Dak Prescott (DAL).

— Who to start: The Ravens D/ST and Cowboys D/ST are too good to sit despite difficult matchups on both sides. Jake Ferguson (DAL) is an obvious starter if active against a defense allowing the fourth-most fantasy points to tight ends. Brandin Cooks (DAL) faces a defense allowing the sixth-most fantasy points to wide receivers.

— Who to sit: Isaiah Likely (BAL) is TD-dependent until we see consistent usage. Ezekiel Elliott (DAL) and Rico Dowdle (DAL) are both TD-dependent against a defense allowing the seventh-fewest fantasy points to running backs. Luke Schoonmaker (DAL) only has value if Ferguson remains out with an MCL sprain.

— Sleeper: Justice Hill (BAL) has eight receptions in two games and can hurt the Cowboys the way Alvin Kamara did last week.

SAN FRANCISCO AT L.A. RAMS

— Obvious starters: Brandon Aiyuk (SF), Jordan Mason (SF), 49ers D/ST, Kyren Williams (LAR).

— Who to start: George Kittle (SF) is an obvious starter if active — monitor his hamstring issue. Brock Purdy (SF) leads the NFL with 550 passing yards and faces a defense allowing the fourth-most fantasy points to quarterbacks. Matthew Stafford (LAR) is a solid streaming option in deeper leagues against a defense allowing the seventh-most fantasy points to quarterbacks. Demarcus Robinson (LAR) should be Stafford’s top target (with Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua sidelined) against a defense allowing the fourth-most fantasy points to wide receivers.

— Who to sit: Blake Corum (LAR) is TD-dependent with only eight carries in two games. Colby Parkinson (LAR) faces a defense allowing the third-fewest fantasy points to tight ends. Tyler Johnson (LAR) and Jordan Whittington (LAR) are both TD-dependent options with Kupp and Nacua out.

— Sleeper: Jauan Jennings (SF) will see more volume with Deebo Samuel and Christian McCaffrey out against a defense allowing the ninth-most fantasy points to wide receivers.

DETROIT AT ARIZONA

— Obvious starters: Amon-Ra St. Brown (DET), Jahmyr Gibbs (DET), Sam LaPorta (DET), Kyler Murray (ARI), Marvin Harrison Jr. (ARI), Trey McBride (ARI), James Conner (ARI).

— Who to start: David Montgomery (DET) is the overall RB12 in standard formats (RB13 in PPR) through two games. Jameson Williams (DET) is the overall WR7 across all fantasy formats through two games. Jared Goff (DET) is indoors and faces a defense allowing the fifth-most fantasy points to quarterbacks.

— Who to sit: The Lions D/ST faces an offense allowing the second-fewest fantasy points to opposing defenses. Michael Wilson (ARI) is a boom-or-bust option with only four targets in two games. Trey Benson (ARI) is TD-dependent against a defense allowing the second-fewest fantasy points to running backs. I’m fading the Cardinals D/ST against a really good offense that hasn’t played near its capabilities yet.

— Sleeper: Greg Dortch (ARI) faces a defense allowing the third-most fantasy points to wide receivers.

KANSAS CITY AT ATLANTA

— Obvious starters: Patrick Mahomes (KC), Travis Kelce (KC), Rashee Rice (KC), Bijan Robinson (ATL), Drake London (ATL), Kyle Pitts (ATL).

— Who to start: Carson Steele (KC) has RB2/flex upside as the assumed replacement for injured Isiah Pacheco on early downs. Kirk Cousins (ATL) faces a defense allowing the second-most fantasy points to quarterbacks.

— Who to sit: Xavier Worthy (KC) is a boom-or-bust option against a defense allowing the ninth-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers. There are higher-upside streaming options than the Chiefs D/ST on the road this week. Darnell Mooney (ATL) is a boom-or-bust option against a very good Chiefs secondary. Tyler Allgeier (ATL) is TD-dependent against a defense allowing the fourth-most fantasy points to running backs.

— Sleeper: Samaje Perine (KC) has flex appeal in PPR because of his pass-catching acumen/role and Pacheco’s injury.

JACKSONVILLE AT BUFFALO

— Obvious starters: Travis Etienne (JAC), Josh Allen (BUF), James Cook (BUF), Dalton Kincaid (BUF).

— Who to start: Evan Engram (JAC) is an obvious starter if he’s active — monitor his hamstring injury. Khalil Shakir (BUF) is the overall WR30 across all fantasy formats through two games and faces a defense allowing the eighth-most fantasy points to wide receivers. The Bills D/ST are usually a strong play at home and are sixth in fantasy scoring through two games.

— Who to sit: Christian Kirk (JAC), Brian Thomas Jr. (JAC) and Gabe Davis (JAC) are all boom-or-bust options on the road against a defense allowing the fifth-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers. I anticipate Trevor Lawrence (JAC) having his best game of the season so far, but it’s hard to trust him anywhere outside of Superflex formats or the deepest of leagues at this point. Keon Coleman (BUF) is a boom-or-bust option with only six targets in two games. Curtis Samuel (BUF) remains a boom-or-bust option with only four targets and one carry in two games.

— Sleeper: Brenton Strange (JAC) had three receptions (six targets) for 65 yards as Engram’s replacement last week against the Browns and faces a defense allowing the eighth-most fantasy points to tight ends.

WASHINGTON AT CINCINNATI

— Obvious starters: Jayden Daniels (WAS), Brian Robinson Jr. (WAS), Ja’Marr Chase (CIN), Joe Burrow (CIN).

— Who to start: Austin Ekeler (WAS) maintains flex appeal as the overall RB32 in standard formats (RB28 in PPR) through two games. Tee Higgins (CIN) is an obvious starter if he’s active — continue to monitor his hamstring injury. Zack Moss (CIN) maintains RB2/flex upside as the overall RB29 in standard formats (RB30 in PPR) through two games. The Bengals D/ST deserve streaming consideration at home against a rookie QB making his first primetime start.

— Who to sit: Terry McLaurin (WAS) faces a defense allowing the sixth-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers. Chase Brown (CIN) is TD-dependent with only 10 touches in two games. I’m fading Mike Gesicki (CIN) against a defense allowing the fewest fantasy points to tight ends. Andrei Iosivas (CIN) only has value if Higgins remains out.

— Sleeper: Zach Ertz (WAS) is the overall TE9 in standard formats (TE7 in PPR) through two weeks.
