Fantasy Football News & Latest NFL Updates

Panthers QB Bryce Young suffered a high ankle sprain in Sunday's win over the Jets, according to multiple reports. He'll miss the Week 8 home date with the Bills. ESPN's David Newton reports the team hopes that will be the only game Young misses. Andy Dalton will step in while Young's out.

Broncos QB Bo Nix went off for 279 passing yards and 4 total scores in Sunday’s stunning comeback win over the Giants. Nix recorded 170 passing yards and all four TDs in the fourth quarter alone, supporting the QB1 fantasy finish for Week 7.

Giants RB Cam Skattebo racked up 94 total yards in Sunday’s close loss to Denver. He added his first career receiving TD on a designed screen.

Chargers QB Justin Herbert tallied a career-high 420 yards on 37-of-55 passing in Sunday's loss to the Colts. It was the second 400-yard game of his career, coming two years after Herbert threw for 405 at Minnesota in September 2023. Herbert tossed three TD passes and a pair of INTs in a game that found him playing from behind the whole way. The Colts scored first, jumped to a 10-point lead early in the second quarter, and led by 20 at the end of the first half. That obviously helped drive big passing volume for L.A., which threw 35 second-half passes.

Commanders TE Zach Ertz recorded his fourth TD of the season in Sunday's blowout loss at Dallas. He added 3 catches for 37 yards on a team-high 7 targets.

Chargers WR Quentin Johnston managed just 2 catches for 30 yards in Sunday's loss to the Colts. That might make him seem a little left out from a game that included a career-high 420 passing yards from QB Justin Herbert. But Johnston got right back to his normal role after missing week 6 with a hamstring injury.

Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb returned from a high-ankle sprain to drop 5 catches, 110 yards, and 1 score on Washington. He wasn’t limited in his return, posting a 100% route rate.

Browns RB Quinshon Judkins piled up three TDs and 84 yards in Sunday’s blowout win over Miami. Judkins is one of only two RBs to record three rushing TDs in a game this season. (Jonathan Taylor is the other.)

Chargers rookie TE Oronde Gadsden II racked up 7 catches for 164 yards and a TD in Sunday's loss to the Colts. He benefited from QB Justin Herbert attempting 55 passes -- third-most of his career -- but the game also found Gadsden apparently taking over the position.

Chargers RB Kimani Vidal dominated backfield work for the second straight week in Sunday's loss to the Colts but posted weak fantasy results this time around. He carried nine times for just 20 yards (2.2 per rush) and caught four of five targets for 15 yards (3.8 per catch). Hassan Haskins logged just one carry for 3 yards and 2 catches for 2 yards (on two targets).

Colts WR Alec Pierce led the team in targets and receiving yards in Sunday's win over the Chargers. His 10 targets edged WR Michael Pittman by one. Pierce caught five of those -- second on the team -- for 98 yards. That led the Colts by 29. A 48-yard reception made up nearly half of Pierce's total yardage.

Patriots QB Drake Maye completed 21/23 for 222 yards and two TDs, setting the franchise record for completion percentage in a game at 91.3%. Even Tom Brady never hit that mark in the regular season. Maye also helped his fantasy performance, going 8-62-0 on the ground.

Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson dominated the RB touches for the Patriots with 20 total touches compared to 7 for the rest of the RBs on the roster. He ended with a rushing total of 18-88-1. He also caught two passes for no yards.

Bears rookie RB Kyle Monangai excelled as the No. 2 RB against the Saints. He went 13-81-1 on the ground and 2-13-0 through the air. Starting RB D’Andre Swift went 19-124-1 on the ground and 1-14-0 through the air. With HC Ben Johnson’s history of using two backs in Detroit, Monangai could become the David Montgomery to Swift’s Jahmyr Gibbs in terms of usage (though neither is as talented as their Lions’ counterparts).

Saints WR Chris Olave was the one shining spot of the Saints’ offense going 5-98-2 on 7 targets. He had the only scores of the entire day for the Saints who only mustered 14 points against the Bears. TE Juwan Johnson went 5-79-0 on seven targets while WR Rashid Shaheed led the team with nine targets only going 4-40-0.

Chiefs WR Rashee Rice went 7-32-2 with 10 targets in his first game back from suspension. The third-year player played in his first game since September of 2024 after a torn LCL caused him to miss most of the 2024 season. He appears to have stepped right into the top WR role for the Chiefs once again.

Colts QB Daniel Jones threw for 288 yards and 2 TDs in Sunday's win over the Chargers. He went 23-of-34 passing, a 67.6% completion rate that actually matched Jones' lowest of the season.

Colts RB Jonathan Taylor ran for 94 yards and 3 TDs on 16 carries in Sunday's win over the Chargers. That marked his third 3-TD game of the season, among seven outings. He added 3 catches for 38 yards on three targets.

Dolphins RB De’Von Achane tallied 98 total yards in Sunday’s blowout loss to Cleveland. Achane’s now hit that number in five of seven games this season.

Less than a week after saying he was not benching QB Justin Fields, HC Aaron Glenn pulled the plug on Fields after another horrendous start. Glenn benched Fields at halftime after the Jets accumulated 25 net passing yards and 3 points. Tyrod Taylor relieved Fields and brought some semblance of the forward pass to New York's offense, but Taylor tossed a pair of INTs in relief.
