Chargers Beat: WR K.J. Hill had good first week

Aug 23, 2020

Rookie wide receiver K.J. Hill had the best Week 1 of training camp among wide receivers not named Keenan Allen or Mike Williams. Hill was open often and rarely had an incomplete target.

Fantasy Impact:

The Chargers are seeking speed at their WR3 spot, but Hill doesn't necessarily fit the bill. Jalen Guyton’s blazing speed gave him first crack for the No. 3 role. He received most of the first-team reps, but struggled to find chemistry with quarterback Tyrod Taylor. The results weren’t good when Taylor targeted him, the story said. The piece added with Hill stepping up, it may force the Chargers hand. Reed and Jennings are also candidates.

Cardinals "preparing" for Kyler Murray to start Week 9

The Arizona Cardinals are preparing quarterback Kyler Murray to start Monday night against the Dallas Cowboys, coach Jonathan Gannon said Thursday. Murray missed Arizona's past two games with a foot injury and was able to rest it longer during the Cardinals' bye last week.

Related Players: Jacoby Brissett

Fantasy Impact:

Murray's in a great spot to come into fantasy relevance against a Cowboys defense that ranks dead last in QB aFPA. Even if Murray doesn't scramble around a ton with a rehabbing foot, he should still be in easy consideration as a QB1.

Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson misses Wednesday practice

Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson didn’t practice today due to a toe injury.

Related Players: TreVeyon Henderson

Fantasy Impact:

Still early in the week, but Henderson would be an incredible RB2 candidate in what should be a very good matchup. We'll keep an eye on things, but the rookie might jump from potential FLEX candidate to must-start territory with quickness.

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (hamstring) is officially off the injury report and good to go Thursday night vs. Miami, along with every other player on the 53-man roster. At last, Baltimore getting healthy.

Related Players: Tyler Huntley

Fantasy Impact:

If Jackson is suiting up, he's in our lineups. Mark Andrews is still a touchdown-dependent top-15 option, but Zay Flowers moves back into fringe WR1 consideration.
