Houston Texans wide receivers Christian Kirk (hamstring) and Braxton Berrios (hamstring) have both been removed from the final Week 3 injury report and will make their debuts on Sunday against the division-rival Jacksonville Jaguars, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. Houston will get two key offensive weapons back on Sunday as they look for their first win of the year. Kirk, 28, should be much more involved on offense than Berrios as the team's primary slot receiver, although don't be surprised if his snaps are managed after he missed the first two games of the season. We wouldn't recommend Kirk as a starting flex option in deeper fantasy leagues in his Texans' debut, but his presence should take some attention off WR1 Nico Collins. Rookies Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel, who did very little with Kirk out for the first two weeks, now have an even tougher path to fantasy relevance.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston led his team in receiving yards for the second consecutive week and scored his third touchdown of the season in Monday night's win over the Las Vegas Raiders. He caught three of his seven targets for 71 yards, highlighted by a 60-yard touchdown just before halftime. His 66.7% red-zone target share makes him a very strong option in the Chargers' improved passing attack. RotoBaller projects a favorable matchup if he faces Denver Broncos cornerback Riley Moss, despite the Broncos having one of the best secondaries in the league. RotoBaller ranks him as a low-end WR4 this week, but he should be startable in multi-flex or deeper leagues.

Green Bay Packers running back Chris Brooks looks to build on his minor role within the Packers' offense as they travel to Cleveland to play the Browns in Week 3. Brooks has played well above fellow running back Emanuel Wilson this season and has gained more snaps from Week 1 (9) to Week 2's 13. Brooks could see a little more time on the field with Josh Jacobs (ankle) a bit banged up, though Jacobs came off the injury report after three limited practice sessions. While Brooks remains a clear role player for the Packers, Brooks' role would increase if something were to happen to Jacobs. Brooks' situational role with the Packers keeps him well away from starting consideration for fantasy in Week 3.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs caught a touchdown pass in Week 2 against the Commanders and looks to build off that momentum when the Packers head to Cleveland to face off with the Browns in Week 3. Doubs has been Green Bay's most consistent route runner at the receiver position, as he's not rotated as much as some of the other secondary receivers like Matthew Golden and Dontayvion Wicks. With the injury to Jayden Reed (clavicle, foot) and Tucker Kraft (knee) being questionable after a Thursday injury in practice, Doubs may be needed much more by the Packers for receiving production in Week 3. He's hard to trust as an inconsistent receiving option, but with the pass-catchers in Green Bay a bit more thinned out this week, Doubs could be in line for a higher fantasy floor this week as a WR4 with low-end flex upside.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love has been in a groove and looks to keep his strong, efficient play going as the Packers head to Cleveland to face the Browns in Week 3. For the first time since Week 9 of last season, Love had over 30 pass attempts in Week 2. He threw for 292 yards and two touchdowns while adding 12 yards on the ground. He also missed a few deep shots to Dontayvion Wicks in the first quarter and Matthew Golden later in the game, where we would be universally starting him if he had converted even one of those passes. The Packers' passing game has never been more aggressive at getting the ball downfield with Love sporting a league-high 13.1-yard average depth of target in two games. With the quarterback injuries around the league to several starting options, Love jumps into fantasy QB1 territory against the Browns in Week 3.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers (knee) was limited in practice all week but was removed from Friday's final Week 3 injury report and will play on Sunday against the hosting Washington Commanders, per The Athletic's Ben Standig. Bowers injured his knee in the season-opening win over the New England Patriots and then was questionable for Monday night in Week 2 against the Los Angeles Chargers. The 22-year-old ended up suiting up and caught five of his eight targets for just 38 yards in a 20-9 loss. It appears that Bowers is improving regarding his knee injury, and he should be a full-go in a good matchup against Washington. Despite Bowers' disappointing Week 2 performance, he needs to be locked into all starting fantasy lineups for Week 3 and could easily post his second 100-yard game of the 2025 season.

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs (ankle) was listed on the injury report earlier this week, but after three limited practices, he's been removed from the injury report and is good to go for the Packers' Week 3 game against the Browns. Jacobs has been a touchdown-scoring machine since Week 10 of last season, as he is currently on a 10-game streak where he's scored a rushing touchdown in the regular season. Jacobs' efficiency has waned a little bit this season as he's averaged just 3.6 yards per carry, but he's had at least 20 opportunities in both games, so we can hardly argue with the volume Jacobs is getting in the season's first two games. The Browns have been a strong unit against the run this season, limiting Chase Brown to 2.0 YPC in Week 1 and holding Derrick Henry to just 23 yards in Week 2. Still, Jacobs is a low-end RB1 for fantasy managers against Cleveland in Week 3.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Ladd McConkey caught all five of his targets for 48 yards against the Las Vegas Raiders in the team's 20-9 win on Monday night. He has been reliable through two weeks, but hasn't received a single red-zone target, which limits his touchdown potential. McConkey was a DNP on Wednesday with a bicep injury, but participated fully the rest of the week. He does not carry an injury designation going into Week 3. Despite a potential shadow matchup against the Denver Broncos' shutdown corner Pat Surtain, McConkey's route-running and quarterback Justin Herbert's trust should create opportunities. RotoBaller projects him as WR14 this week and should be started in all formats despite the tough matchup.

The Kansas City Chiefs announced on Friday that wide receiver Xavier Worthy (shoulder) is officially questionable for the Week 3 game on Sunday night against the New York Giants. Worthy was limited all week after suffering a dislocated right shoulder and torn labrum in the Week 1 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. The 22-year-old did not play in last week's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in the Super Bowl rematch, but he apparently will try to give it a go this weekend if he's cleared. With kickoff for Chiefs and Giants not coming until late on Sunday night, we'd advise fantasy managers to play it safe and go in another direction, even in a tempting matchup. If Worthy is active, he'll also be susceptible to a lower number of snaps if he's not 100%. If he misses a second straight game, Marquise Brown, JuJu Smith-Schuster, and Tyquan Thornton will start in three-receiver sets with Rashee Rice still suspended.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (wrist) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's Week 3 matchup against the Houston Texans. Thomas was able to fully practice on Friday, which was enough for the Jags to clear him for this game. The star wideout has been dealing with a wrist injury early in the season, but hopefully he has put it behind him. Thomas has been off to a slow start with five receptions for 60 yards and zero touchdowns through two games. Despite that, Thomas remains a must-start against the Texans in Week 3. Thomas has too much upside to put him on the bench right now.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Will Dissly (knee) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Denver Broncos due to a possible right MCL sprain, an injury he sustained during the team's Monday night win over the Las Vegas Raiders. The veteran tight end had one catch for seven yards before leaving the game toward the end of the first half. He returned and played in the fourth quarter wearing a brace. With Dissly out, fantasy managers should expect increased opportunities for tight ends Tyler Conklin and Tucker Fisk, and possibly rookie Oronde Gadsden, who was a healthy scratch last week.

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Cameron Dicker had another perfect night in the team's win over the Las Vegas Raiders, making two field goals and converting both extra points for an eight-point night. Dicker will face a tough Denver Broncos defense and may need to rely on his leg and accuracy throughout the game. The Chargers are expected to score around 24 points, but with the Broncos tied for the second-lowest Red Zone TD% allowed, Dicker could see more opportunities to attempt field goals during the game. RotoBaller projects him as K5 this week, and he's a strong start for fantasy managers.

Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of the Week 3 matchup against the Cleveland Browns. Kraft suffered a knee injury during Thursday's practice and as a result he won't suit up for Friday's practice. Head coach Matt LaFleur doesn't believe Kraft will go to the injured reserve, but he's unsure if Kraft will be ready to go in time for Sunday's game. His absence would mean Luke Musgrave becomes the starting tight end in Green Bay. Musgrave is an interesting streaming option with the Packers shorthanded on offensive weapons. They will also be without Jayden Reed (shoulder), so Musgrave could be asked to pick up the slack if Kraft is so sidelined. Fantasy managers should check back for another update on Kraft, but they should get another tight end prepared just in case.

From RotoBaller

Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet (foot) is listed as doubtful ahead of the Week 3 matchup against the New Orleans Saints. This isn't what fantasy managers want to see as Charbonnet has been unable to practice all week due to a foot issue. His absence is going to mean Kenneth Walker III is likely to see a large workload on Sunday. The two backs have been splitting up the duties with Charbonnet seeing 27 rushing attempts through two games. Now, Walker is going to be leaned on heavy in the running game against a shaky defensive unit. Fantasy managers should check back for another update just in case Charbonnet does get better. However, they should prepare to be without him for Sunday's game. Walker is looking like a must-start for Week 3 without any viable options behind him.

Denver Broncos tight end Evan Engram (back) has been unable to practice all week which puts his status for Sunday's game in jeopardy. It has been a rough start to the season for Engram who suffered a calf injury in the season opener. Now, Engram is in danger of missing Week 3 due to a lingering back issue. Despite that, head coach Sean Payton said that Engram is going to play a big role in the offense. So far this season, Engram has four receptions for 33 yards through the first two games of the season. When healthy, Engram certainly has TE1 potential, but fantasy managers can't wait all year for that to happen. Hopefully once he's healthy, Engram can start becoming a bigger contributor. In the meantime, Adam Trautman will likely have a larger role in Week 3 if Engram is sidelined.

From RotoBaller

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert (knee) was a full participant during Friday's practice session. That being said, Goedert won't carry an injury designation into Sunday's Week 3 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. Goedert has been bothered by a knee injury that kept him sidelined last week. He appears to be ready to return to his normal role this week. Goedert hauled in all seven of his targets for 44 yards in the season opener. He should be considered a fine TE1 for the upcoming matchup against the Rams.

Los Angeles Chargers running back Najee Harris saw his snap share rise from 18% to 34% in Monday night's win over the Las Vegas Raiders. The team continues to involve him more after a superficial eye injury kept him out of the preseason. While his running mate Omarion Hampton continues to underperform, Harris should get more touches, especially in a game where the Denver Broncos' defense seems stronger against the pass than the run. The veteran made a crucial first down to help secure the win on Monday night and finished with eight carries for 28 yards. Although his usage is increasing, it's not yet at a level where fantasy managers should rely on him. RotoBaller projects him as RB47 this week, so it's best to keep him on your bench and monitor his utilization closely.

Atlanta Falcons kicker Parker Romo signed a two-year deal with the organization on Friday. After a perfect debut last week, the Falcons have decided to go with Romo as their kicker moving forward. Romo knocked down all five of his field goal attempts during last week's win over the Minnesota Vikings. As a result, Younghoe Koo was released by the organization on Friday. Koo missed a game-tying field goal against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the season opener. Apparently, that was enough for the Falcons to move on from him. Possibly, Koo gets another chance elsewhere, but he doesn't need to be rostered in fantasy formats right now. As for Romo, he's looking like a solid streaming option against the shaky Carolina Panthers defense in Week 3.

Los Angeles Chargers running back Omarion Hampton struggled in Monday's 20-9 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. The rookie finished with eight carries for 24 yards and caught one pass for one yard. He ran hard, but the Raiders' defense shut down the run all night. His snap count decreased from 80% to 62%, and with Najee Harris becoming more involved, this could be a crucial week for the rookie. Although the Denver Broncos' defense just allowed 165 rushing yards to Jonathan Taylor, they still maintain a strong front. Even though the Chargers have relied more on the passing game early in the season, Hampton needs to make the most of this starting opportunity, or he might end up sharing more playing time in the future. Fantasy managers should consider Hampton a low-end RB2 for this week.

Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely (foot) said he's "taking it day by day" when asked by reporters about his chances to play in Week 3 against the Detroit Lions on Monday Night Football. Likely had foot surgery in August and missed Baltimore's first two games of the season, but he has returned to practice in a limited capacity. The 25-year-old had 42 catches for 477 yards and six touchdowns across 16 games in 2024. Upon his return, he's a candidate to steal playing time away from Ravens veteran tight end Mark Andrews. Andrews has just two catches so far in 2025, so Likely could even take over as Baltimore's TE1 at some point in 2025. Neither player profiles as a must-start fantasy tight end when sharing the field, but Likely may have the higher upside at this point in their respective careers.
