Patriots | Drake Maye totals three touchdowns Sun Sep 14, 08:11 PM
New England Patriots QB Drake Maye completed 19-of-23 passes for 230 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions in Week 2 against the Miami Dolphins, while running 10 times for 31 yards and a score.
| Footballguys view: It was the performance fantasy investors needed after a disappointing Week 1. Maye became the first Patriots quarterback with multiple passing touchdowns and a rushing touchdown in the same game since Tom Brady in Week 2, 2019. His 26.3 fantasy points were the third-most by a quarterback on Sunday's slate. The Patriots play the Steelers at home in Week 3. |

49ers | Mac Jones shines as the starter Sun Sep 14, 08:05 PM
San Francisco 49ers QB Mac Jones completed 26 of his 39 passes for 279 yards and tied a career high with three touchdown passes. He also lost a fumble.
| Footballguys view: As NFL.com noted, Jones missed his first four passes, but the fifth-year pro settled in, hitting eight straight at one point and effectively running the offense. Jones put balls on the money, including hitting Jauan Jennings in stride for a 42-yard touchdown. Despite having Christian McCaffrey at full speed, the Niners called 39 passes for Jones. Sunday marked only the second time in the QB's career he's thrown for 250-plus yards and three TDs (once in 2023). While Brock Purdy isn't ruled out for Week 3, Jones showed he can keep the offense afloat as long as needed. |

Bengals | Report: Joe Burrow has turf toe, torn ligaments; extended absence coming Sun Sep 14, 07:55 PM
Updating a previous report, Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Burrow (toe) is believed to have turf toe, as well as torn ligaments, a source said Sunday, Sept. 14. He is likely to miss several weeks as a result.
| Footballguys view: Burrow had an MRI during the game, and while head coach Zac Taylor offered no updates, the Bengals surely know by now the extent of their quarterback's left toe injury. Reporters saw Burrow leave the locker room with a boot on his left foot and on crutches. The report adds that a multi-week absence is likely. Footballguys injury analyst Adam Hutchison added to that, suggesting a stint on IR is possible. While Burrow's injury is horrible news, having a competent backup in Jake Browning is a positive. We'll follow up as developments warrant. |

Titans | Chimere Dike productive in return game Sun Sep 14, 07:53 PM
Tennessee Titans WR Chimere Dike had two receptions for minus-1 yard on five targets while running twice for nine yards in Week 2 against the Los Angeles Rams. He added a five kickoff returns for 83 yards, while posting 37 yards on a pair of punt returns, too.
Link to story Titans | Tony Pollard productive in Week 2 Sun Sep 14, 07:48 PM
Tennessee Titans RB Tony Pollard ran 20 times for a game-high 92 yards in Week 2 against the Los Angeles Rams, and he did not have a catch on just one target.
| Footballguys view: Pollard should continue to get a heavy workload while Tyjae Spears is on injured reserve, which will be for at least two more weeks. The Titans defense had some lapses against the Rams outstanding wide receiver duo this week, but it is generally good enough to keep them in games while Cam Ward learns the ropes, insuring that Pollard will remain involved in the game throughout. |

Titans | Cam Ward shows some improvement Sun Sep 14, 07:46 PM

Los Angeles Rams RB Blake Corum ran five times for 44 yards and his first NFL touchdown in Week 2 against the Tennessee Titans. He was not targeted in the pass game.
| Footballguys view: Corum should be added in all but short bench leagues. He could be a matchup flex if he keeps getting goal line carries, and Corum showed more juice than Kyren Williams in the win over the Titans. |

Los Angeles Rams WR Puka Nacua ended up with eight receptions for 91 yards and a touchdown on nine targets in Week 2 against the Tennessee Titans, while posting a 45-yard touchdown run on his only attempt.
| Footballguys view: Nacua's 45-yard rushing score would leave many running backs envious. The Rams emphasized Davante Adams more early in the game, but Nacua can't be held down for long. He may end up being the most valuable receiver in fantasy football this season - if he and Matthew Stafford can stay healthy. |

Rams | Davante Adams hits triple digits with TD Sun Sep 14, 07:26 PM
Los Angeles Rams WR Davante Adams posted six receptions for a game-high 106 yards and a touchdown on 13 targets in Week 2 against the Tennessee Titans.
| Footballguys view: The Rams wanted to feature Adams more this week, and they did with excellent results. There's no doubt that Puka Nacua is the most valuable receiver in this offense, but Adams can still be good enough to be an every-week high floor WR2 start. He and the Rams will be tested by the Eagles next week. |

Rams | Kyren Williams totals 80 scrimmage yards Sun Sep 14, 07:23 PM
Los Angeles Rams RB Kyren Williams ran 17 for a team-best 66 yards in Week 2 against the Tennessee Titans, while adding two receptions for 14 yards on two targets.
| Footballguys view: Williams gave way to Blake Corum at the goal line, and Corum's touch share was up to about 1/3 of the backfield work, in a bad sign for Williams weekly ceiling going forward. He's more RB2 than RB1 for fantasy, and going against a tough Eagles defense in Week 3. |
Rams | Matthew Stafford just misses 300 yards Sun Sep 14, 07:18 PM
Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford completed 23-of-33 passes for 298 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in Week 2 against the Tennessee Titans, and he ran twice for minus-6 yards.
| Footballguys view: Stafford had a strong game even though his offensive guard duo is banged up and the Titans best defender is a defensive tackle. He got Davante Adams more involved today and showed he can be playable as a QB2/Superflex in the right matchup. Next week vs. the defending champion Eagles is probably not that matchup. |

Bengals | Tee Higgins scores touchdown in Week 2 Sun Sep 14, 07:08 PM
Cincinnati Bengals WR Tee Higgins posted three receptions for 56 yards and a touchdown on eight targets in Week 2 against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
| Footballguys view: Higgins had two Jaguar defenders bounce off of him on his long touchdown catch and run to salvage a decent fantasy day. Jake Browning is bold with the football and can keep Higgins a viable WR3/Flex play, but there's no understating the impact of the loss of Joe Burrow for "several" weeks on this offense. |

Bengals | Big stat line for Ja'Marr Chase Sun Sep 14, 07:06 PM
Cincinnati Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase ended up with 14 receptions, 165 yards and a touchdown on 16 targets in Week 2 against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
| Footballguys view: Chase may prove to be the kind of receiver that transcends his quarterback play like Randy Moss or Justin Jefferson. It will be a great test of what his value will be without Joe Burrow next week against the team those receivers were drafted by - the Minnesota Vikings. |

Cincinnati Bengals RB Chase Brown ran 16 times for just 47 yards in Week 2 against the Jacksonville Jaguars, while adding two receptions for 18 yards on three targets.
| Footballguys view: Jake Browning vultured a touchdown or Brown would have been adequate for fantasy, but there's no sugarcoating what the loss of Joe Burrow will do to Brown's fantasy stock. Consider him a low ceiling RB2 against the Vikings next week. |

Cowboys | KaVontae Turpin sidelined by a neck injury Sun Sep 14, 07:02 PM
Dallas Cowboys WR KaVontae Turpin (neck) caught all four of his targets for 47 yards and a touchdown and ran for six yards on two carries in Week 2 against the New York Giants before leaving with a neck injury.
| Footballguys view: It appears Turpin avoided serious injury, according to NFL Network's Jane Slater. He was wearing a neck brace, according to her, though. Slater noted that Turpin's x-rays came out good, which is the most important thing. The Cowboys will surely provide some updates on Turpin as the week moves along. We'll follow up as the week progresses. |
Bengals | Jake Browning throws for 241 yards, two TDs Sun Sep 14, 07:00 PM
Cincinnati Bengals QB Jake Browning completed 21-of-32 passes for 241 yards, two touchdowns and three interceptions in Week 2 against the Jacksonville Jaguars, taking over for the injured QB Joe Burrow (toe). He also ran once for a 1-yard touchdown.
| Footballguys view: Browning will be a top priority on superflex waiver wires, but he's a boom/bust play in 1QB leagues, with a tough matchup against the Vikings next week. He showed he can support Ja'Marr Chase's value, but Browning also had multiple poor decisions that resulted in interceptions and will need to tighten up his play in Week 3. |
