Miami Dolphins running back Ollie Gordon II hasn't been able to break through yet in his rookie season, but he does continue to get some work each week. Coming into Week 8's game against the Falcons, Gordon has played around 25% of snaps over the last few weeks. He has multiple carries in each of the last five weeks, dating back to his one game with a touchdown against the Bills. He has 25 carries over his last five games, but he has only been able to manage 58 rushing yards. He's added a few catches as well, but he only has seven receiving yards all year. Gordon's low volume and the fact that Jaylen Wright is rumored to be more involved this week make Gordon an extremely high-risk play this week. He's the No. 48 RB in RotoBaller's rankings this week, meaning he shouldn't be a starter in most formats even though he does get some work.

Cleveland Browns running back Quinshon Judkins turned in a huge game in a 31-6 win over the Miami Dolphins in Week 7. On a rainy, windy day in Cleveland, the Browns leaned on Judkins, who rushed for 84 yards and three touchdowns in the win. The rookie runner will look to keep it going on the road in Week 8 against the New England Patriots. New England has been dominant against the run this season, allowing just the 27th-most fantasy points per game this year. Judkins has a difficult matchup, but he has been a true workhorse for Cleveland this season and should push for at least another 20 touches this weekend. Treat him as a high-end RB2 heading into Week 8.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave had a big game against the Bears in Week 7, recording five receptions for 98 yards and two touchdowns. Olave now has 44 receptions for 440 yards and three touchdowns on the season and ranks second in the league in targets (71), trailing only Ja'Marr Chase (80). He's also in contract extension talks with New Orleans and has stated that he does not want to be moved. Olave has become the focal point of the Saints' passing offense, developing strong chemistry with Spencer Rattler. He ranks as a high-end WR2 against a Buccaneers secondary that's allowing 7.0 yards per pass attempt and 229.0 passing yards per game.

Cleveland Browns quarterback Dillon Gabriel threw for 116 scoreless yards in a 31-6 win over the Miami Dolphins in Week 7. The rookie quarterback saw his passing stats suppressed by a rainy, windy day in Cleveland. Gabriel has now thrown for 546 yards and three touchdowns across five games (three starts) for the Browns this year. He will look to post more gaudy stats in a Week 8 road matchup against the New England Patriots. The Patriots have been tough on opposing quarterbacks this season as they are allowing the 22nd-most fantasy points per game to the position through seven games. Gabriel sets up as a low-end QB2 in a week where there are six teams on bye.

Miami Dolphins running back Jaylen Wright started the season sidelined by a knee injury, but he has been available since Week 4. However, Wright still doesn't have a target, a carry, or even an offensive snap. He was a healthy scratch in Week 5 and Week 6, but in Week 7, he was active. He was still not involved in the offense; however, still playing behind De'Von Achane and Ollie Gordon II. Wright showed flashes of upside last year as a rookie, and his name has been floated in trade rumors this season. However, it's hard to get a real idea of how good he can be when he's so uninvolved. If the Dolphins give him some work this week against the Falcons, he could at least boost his trade value. Since he hasn't done anything all year, Wright is the No. 73 RB in RotoBaller's rankings. He is off the fantasy radar for now, but it's worth monitoring to see if he gets any work this week.

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara rushed 11 times for just 28 yards and added one yard on three receptions in the Week 7 loss to the Bears. Kamara's struggles continue, as he's posting career-low marks in yards per carry, yards per touch, yards per target, and receiving yards per game. Head coach Kellen Moore remains committed to feeding him the ball, but Kamara has been held to 31 or fewer rushing yards in three straight games, and hasn't found the end zone since Week 1. He was limited in practice throughout the week with an ankle injury but is good to go in the Week 8 matchup against the Buccaneers. Kamara ranks as an RB2, and is in desperate need of a get-right game.

New Orleans Saints quarterback Spencer Rattler completed 20-of-32 passes for 233 yards and two touchdowns in the Week 7 loss to the Bears. After turning the ball over just once through his first six games, Rattler unraveled in this one, throwing three interceptions and losing a fumble. Head coach Kellen Moore said Rattler will remain the starter, though it will be a "week-to-week thing," which adds a layer of risk to his outlook. The second-year quarterback draws a decent bounce-back spot in Week 8 against a Buccaneers defense allowing 229.0 passing yards and 25.0 points per game. Rattler should remain on the QB2/Superflex radar, but turnovers could start to become a concern if the trend continues.

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa is the No. 26 QB in RotoBaller's rankings for Week 8, which isn't a good thing when there are only 26 teams playing this week. It has been a rough season for the Dolphins and Tagovailoa all year, but it reached new depths last week in a 31-6 loss to the lowly Browns. Tua completed only 12 of his 23 passes for 100 yards and no touchdowns while throwing three interceptions last week. He was replaced by rookie Quinn Ewers, but Tua will be back on the field to start this week against the Falcons. He is averaging 187.6 passing yards per game and has 10 interceptions to go with his 11 touchdowns. On top of all his struggles, he's in a brutal matchup against the Falcons, who have allowed the second-fewest yards per attempt and the fewest passing yards per game this season. If you have anyone else who is playing this week, they're probably a better option than Tagovailoa at this point, especially since he may not finish the game or have his job by the end of Week 8.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive tackle Vita Vea (foot) missed a second straight day of practice on Friday due to a foot injury and is listed as questionable for the Week 8 divisional tilt on Sunday against the New Orleans Saints, according to Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times. However, head coach Todd Bowles said that Vea is expected to play. It's good news for the Bucs' defensive line, as Vea is having one of his best seasons so far in 2025, with 17 tackles, 2.5 sacks, three tackles for loss, and six QB hits in seven games. The 30-year-old two-time Pro Bowler isn't really an option for IDP fantasy leagues, but his presence on the interior of Tampa's defensive line makes running up the gut extremely difficult for opposing offenses. With Vita expected to play on Sunday, it will make life more difficult for struggling Saints running back Alvin Kamara.

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane remains one of the few players from his team who can be relied on for fantasy football purposes. This week, he and the Dolphins are visiting the Falcons after taking a 31-6 beating last week in Cleveland. Achane still had a decent game in the loss, producing 82 rushing yards on 13 carries and adding three catches for 16 receiving yards. He didn't get into the end zone, but he still has six total touchdowns in his seven games this season. He'll look to get back into the end zone against the Falcons, who rank in the middle of the pack against running backs. They did give up two touchdowns to Christian McCaffrey last week, and Achane is very involved as both a rusher and receiver, giving him a high ceiling as this week's No. 5 RB in RotoBaller's rankings.

New York Giants linebacker Brian Burns (hip) is listed as questionable to play in Week 8 when the team takes on the division-rival Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday for the second time this year, according to Giants.com's Dan Salomone. Despite missing practice time this week, the NFL's leader in sacks is expected to be active this weekend as the Giants look to sweep Philly in 2025. As long as the 27-year-old is active, fantasy managers will want him in their starting lineups, as Burns has recorded 34 tackles (23 solo), a league-leading 12 tackles for loss, nine sacks, four pass breakups, and a forced fumble through seven weeks. In the Week 6 win over the Eagles on Thursday night, he had two sacks of Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts. The Giants' defense/special teams unit is probably best avoided in Week 8, but Burns is a must-start in IDP leagues at linebacker if he's active on Sunday.

New York Giants kicker Graham Gano (groin), who remains on Injured Reserve, is considered questionable to make his return for the Week 8 divisional rematch against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday, according to Dan Salomone of Giants.com. Gano was limited in practice all week but is expected to be officially activated from IR on Saturday and play on Sunday. The 38-year-old veteran placekicker was the team's starting kicker for the first three weeks of the season before injuring his groin, making all six of his field-goal tries (one from 50-plus yards) and all four of his extra-point attempts. Fantasy managers should be settling for safer kicking options this weekend, but with New York's offense on the upswing thanks to rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart and rookie running back Cam Skattebo, Gano could be on the streaming radar in the coming weeks now that he's on the cusp of his return.

Chicago Bears kicker Cairo Santos (thigh) is listed as questionable to play in the Week 8 game on Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens despite practicing in full on Thursday and Friday. Santos should be on the right side of questionable to play this weekend after missing the last two games with a right-thigh injury. Even though Jake Moody filled in admirably the last two weeks with Santos ailing, the Bears should go back to Santos as their primary placekicker if they feel comfortable about his health. The 33-year-old veteran made six of his seven field-goal attempts and all 11 of his extra-point opportunities in his four games for Chicago before his thigh injury. With his health up in the air, though, fantasy managers should be looking elsewhere for a streaming kicker in Week 8. The Ravens defense hasn't really been able to stop anyone in 2025, but they have gotten healthy on that side of the ball coming off their Week 7 bye.

From RotoBaller

New York Giants tight end Theo Johnson is a boom-or-bust streaming option in Week 8, checking in as the 12th-ranked fantasy TE this season and averaging 7.6 fantasy points per game. Johnson is heavily touchdown-dependent, as evidenced by his four touchdowns since rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart took over, but his Week 6 performance against the Eagles yielded just 27 receiving yards. The matchup is difficult; the Eagles' defense is the 4th-ranked defense against fantasy tight ends, allowing only 8.00 points per game, one of the lowest marks in the league. Johnson's high 77.2% snap percentage confirms his consistent presence on the field, but he is a shaky TE1 due to his opponent's track record of neutralizing the position.

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. hauled in seven of his 10 targets for 62 yards in Week 7, which was his second seven-catch performance in six games thus far and the first time he recorded double-digit targets, now averaging just over six targets per game. The 6-foot-6 tight end owns a solid 19.3 percent target share, putting him in the low-end TE1 conversation most weeks, however, he's been able to find theend zone just one time all season, leaving him as just the 16th-overall TE in half-point PPR leagues. Still, the 25-year-old is back in the TE1 conversation in a home game against the Dolphins, a defense that has given up 29 points per game over the last three weeks. Teams have preferred to run against Miami, but with six teams on bye and it being National Tight Ends' Day (he caught two TDs last year on that day), the formerfirst-round draft pick sets up as a low-end TE1 again.

From RotoBaller

Green Bay Packers kicker Brandon McManus (quad) is listed as questionable ahead of the Week 8 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers. McManus has been limited in practice for each of the last two games. He has missed the last two games, but is hopeful to play this weekend. Lucas Havrisik has been the starting kicker in his place over the last two weeks. The 26-year-old has been perfect on all his kicks and could be a possible streaming option if McManus remains sidelined for a third straight week.

From RotoBaller

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Tyler Huntley was signed to the active roster on Friday. It was revealed on Friday that Huntley would start under center if Lamar Jackson (hamstring) is unable to go this weekend. Huntley has been on the practice squad, but did play against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 6. Huntley completed 10-of-15 passing attempts for 68 yards without any touchdowns or interceptions. He wouldn't be a recommended streaming option against the Chicago Bears defense. It's worth noting that Jackson did practice in full on Friday. It seems likely that Jackson will be good to go, but if not Huntley will be under center.

New York Giants wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson is riding a hot streak and warrants a starting spot in Week 8 as the team's unquestioned top target. He is the 21st-ranked fantasy WR on the season, averaging 10.61 Fantasy Points Per Game, and is operating with an 81.3% snap percentage. Robinson torched this Eagles secondary two weeks ago with six catches, 84 yards, and a touchdown, a performance he followed up last week with 95 yards on 12 targets. Although the Eagles' defense has been stingy against receiving touchdowns, Robinson has a favorable matchup, facing an opponent that ranks 22nd against fantasy WRs (allowing 34.11 points against). His high volume and recent success against this divisional foe make him a reliable WR2/Flex option.

From RotoBaller

Cincinnati Bengals defensive end Trey Hendrickson (hip) is currently listed as questionable heading into the Week 8 matchup against the New York Jets. Hendrickson was limited in practice on Wednesday and Thursday before not practicing at all on Friday. The stud pass rusher sat out last Thursday's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Bengals will likely wait until closer to Sunday's contest before making a final decision on Hendrickson. If he sits, Shemar Stewart and Myles Murphy figure to have larger roles on defense.

From RotoBaller

New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo is a confident start in Week 8, as he looks to repeat his dominant performance against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 6. Skattebo has been a fantasy workhorse since taking over the backfield, ranking as the 8th-ranked fantasy RB for the season while averaging 15.46 Fantasy Points per game (FPPG). In the Week 6 matchup against the Eagles, Skattebo exploded for 98 rushing yards on 19 carries and found the end zone three times, demonstrating his elite scoring upside. Though Philadelphia's defense allows an average of 23.39 points to the position (ranking 25th against fantasy RBs), its stout 3rd-ranked red zone defense could be a factor. Skattebo's high 53.4% timeshare and his red-zone usage, evidenced by his five rushing touchdowns, cement him as a must-start despite the Eagles looking for revenge.
