Ravens TE Isaiah Likely (foot) is officially out again Sunday vs. Cleveland. WR Rashod Bateman (personal) is good to go.

Related Players: Zay Flowers, DeAndre Hopkins, Mark Andrews

Andrews disappointed in Week 1, but we've been here before. His efficiency in the red zone makes him a top-7 (at least) option in any given week, particularly with Likely out.

Consider Bateman a boom/bust WR4 option in Week 2.

Bills RB James Cook (hamstring) is off the injury report and good to go Sunday vs. the Jets.

Related Players: Ray Davis, Ty Johnson

All systems go for James Cook as a high-end RB2 here. Keep Davis in the desperation RB4 range.

Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy (shoulder) is officially doubtful for Sunday vs. the Eagles.

Related Players: Hollywood Brown, JuJu Smith-Schuster, Tyquan Thornton, Travis Kelce

Brown is the most obvious beneficiary and should be considered a fringe WR2/3. Smith-Schuster will operate underneath with a limited ceiling, while Thornton is a desperation boom/bust play.

Giants WRs Malik Nabers (back) and Darius Slayton (groin) are off the injury report and good to go Sunday vs. the #Cowboys.

WR Wan'Dale Robinson (ankle) is questionable. LT Andrew Thomas (foot) is doubtful.

Nabers might get 20 targets if Robinson misses this game. Regardless, he's the only receiver we should be seriously considering in most league formats.

Falcons WRs Drake London and Darnell Mooney do not have an injury designation for Sunday night’s game vs. the Vikings and are good to go.

Related Players: Ray-Ray McLoud, Kyle Pitts

Good news for Michael Penix and great news for fantasy managers who took a stab at Mooney's cratering ADP as the summer moved along. London should return to back-end WR1 consideration, and while Mooney should be more in the WR4 range in his first game back, their should be better spots ahead for him.

Quinshon Judkins is officially questionable for Week 2.

Related Players: Dylan Sampson, Jerome Ford

So it's still up in the air whether the second-round rookie will actually be taking the field here in Week 2, so the backfield's fantasy value is still very much in the air. After Sampson's eight-catch performance during the opening weekend, he should shoot up into high-end RB3 territory without Judkins, but becomes slightly less valuable if he's splitting with both his fellow rookie and Jerome Ford.

Austin Jackson, Benito Jones and Darren Waller are all OUT for the Dolphins this week vs New England

Related Players: Julian Hill, Tanner Conner

It was always a pretty wild move to trade for a retired tight end who had been dealing with a litany of injuries, but here we are. Conner was more involved than Julian Hill in the offense in Week 1, turning four targets into 20 yards, but he's not worth a look in fantasy until we see more out of him. Waller can be dropped in all but the deepest TE Premium leagues amid rumors that he might be shut down.

Jaylen Waddle expected to play Sunday... Jaylen Wright likely won't play but not 100 percent certain, per McDaniel... Jackson, Waller out Sunday and Benito Jones out Sunday as well

Related Players: Tyreek Hill, Malik Washington

If Waddle is a full-go for Sunday, we should continue to consider him a WR3, even if the Dolphins offense was quite moribund in Week 1. Tyreek is a boom/bust WR2.

Commanders believe veteran RB Austin Ekeler did in fact tear his Achilles during Thursday night’s loss at Green Bay. Ekeler still needs to undergo imaging that is scheduled Friday for confirmation.

Related Players: Jacory Croskey-Merritt, Jeremy McNichols, Chris Rodriguez

Rodriguez has been a healthy scratch twice to begin the season and wasn't pegged for the third-down role to begin with, so we should imagine most of the work will go to Croskey-Merritt and McNichols, unless the Commanders bring in another body (which is very possible). For now, JCM should be boosted into legit RB2 consideration based on matchup, while McNichols is somwhere in the RB4/5 range.

Packers WR Jayden Reed will miss 6-8 weeks with a broken collarbone.

Related Players: Dontayvion Wicks, Malik Heath, Romeo Doubs, Matthew Golden, Savion Williams

This would presumably tighten the WR rotation a little bit, but as we saw on TNF, it would take a lot of consolidation to be able to trust any of the Packers receivers to garner a large workload. Continue to hold Golden, and potentially also Doubs in deeper leagues, but TE Tucker Kraft is the easiest click of this group, even after Reed's injury.
