Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum is trending toward handling a larger role going forward, but his productivity could be held in check ahead of Week 3 against the Philadelphia Eagles. Corum saw his snap share jump from 17 percent to 30 percent in Week 2, and he also scored a touchdown while rushing for 44 yards on five carries. While a favorable matchup against the Titans may have boosted his efficiency, it appears that the Rams are still looking to get him more involved. Even if he handles around one-third of the snaps in Week 3, though, he won't be a reliable fantasy option. Williams profiles as the Rams' short-yardage back and their go-to option around the goal line, and Corum will likely see reduced efficiency against an Eagles defense that has allowed the 11th-fewest fantasy points to running backs in 2025.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy (shoulder) is not expected to play in Week 3, per The Athletic's Dianna Russini. Worthy dislocated his shoulder in Week 1's loss to the Los Angeles Chargers and has yet to return to game action. Without Worthy, the Chiefs' passing game has lacked production against the Philadelphia Eagles, outside of one deep connection to Tyquan Thornton. In his absence, Marquise Brown, JuJu Smith-Schuster, and Thornton should continue to see expanded roles, while Patrick Mahomes' ceiling takes a hit without his top vertical threat. The next realistic target for Worthy's return is Week 4 against the Baltimore Ravens.

Washington Commanders tight end Ben Sinnott could be in line to see more snaps in Week 3 against the Raiders with tight end John Bates (groin) out. Sinnott has operated as Washington's third tight end since being drafted in the second round of last year's draft, but he has a chance to see a career high in snaps this week. Sinnott only played three snaps total and caught one ball for eight yards with Bates injured in Week 2's loss to the Packers, and how often he plays in Week 3 will be telling for the second-year tight end. He's not a direct replacement for Bates because he's not as good a blocker at the point of attack, but he is solid at blocking on the move and is an excellent athlete. There could be some specific packages for Sinnott against the Raiders, and getting a real look at him in game action will be noteworthy for his dynasty value. But he isn't on radars in redraft leagues for Week 3.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams continues to rank in must-start territory ahead of his Week 3 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles. After a relatively quiet season opener, the veteran was promised more opportunities in the passing game, and Matthew Stafford delivered. Adams caught six of 13 targets for 106 yards and a touchdown last week, giving him momentum ahead of Week 3. While this week's matchup is tough -- the Eagles have allowed the ninth-fewest fantasy points to receivers -- Adams should still be able to produce as a mid-range WR2 in fantasy football, especially if Los Angeles adopts a somewhat negative game script.

Tennessee Titans kicker Joey Slye has been on fire to start the 2025 season, hitting all eight of his field-goal attempts and averaging 16 fantasy points per game. Even with Tennessee's offensive and defensive struggles, Slye has been one of the most reliable fantasy options at the position, ranking third in fantasy. Week 3 presents a tougher challenge against the Indianapolis Colts, who have yet to allow a field goal this season. With the Titans entering as five-point underdogs, there's a chance this matchup turns into more of a "go-for-it" game script rather than relying on field goals. Slye still profiles as a starting kicker in Week 3, but managers should be aware of the added risk tied to Tennessee's offensive inconsistencies.

Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams is no longer a surefire RB1, especially in Week 3 against the Philadelphia Eagles. Williams saw his workload take a step back last week as he totaled 70 percent of the offensive snaps. Meanwhile, Blake Corum's snap share jumped to 30 percent, and the second-year back also scored a touchdown. While Williams remains the lead back in Los Angeles, he isn't necessarily a guaranteed workhorse anymore. He's going to continue to face competition, and he'll also have to deal with a tough matchup this week. The Eagles have allowed the 11th-fewest fantasy points to running backs, and they held the Chiefs' backfield to just 55 total rushing yards in Week 2. Williams drops to the low-end RB2 range for this week.

Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams is off to a promising fantasy start despite the team's 0-2 record. The 2024 first-overall pick is averaging 21.1 fantasy points per game, putting him on pace to finish as the QB10. A major part of his success has come on the ground, where Williams ranks fourth among quarterbacks in rushing yards and fifth in rushing fantasy points from the quarterback position. This week, Williams takes on the Dallas Cowboys and his former head coach, Matt Eberflus. While some worry that Eberflus' familiarity with Williams could pose problems, new Bears head coach Ben Johnson has a proven track record against the Dallas defensive coordinator. During his time with the Lions, Johnson's offenses topped 30 points in four of six meetings against Eberflus' defenses. Meanwhile, the Cowboys' defense has been a liability, giving up the most fantasy points to quarterbacks in both 2024 and 2025, while allowing the most rushing yards and touchdowns to quarterbacks in both seasons. In what projects to be a high-scoring affair, Williams profiles as a mid QB1 for Week 3.

Indianapolis Colts kicker Spencer Shrader will head on the road to take on the Tennessee Titans in Week 3. Shrader has gotten off to a hot start, having hit all nine of his field-goal attempts and adding five extra points through two games. The Colts have been better on offense than expected, ranking fourth in the NFL with 31.0 points per game, which has afforded Shrader extra field-goal attempts thus far. Fantasy gamers can consider the Indy kicker a top-12 option heading into Week 3.

Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier rushed 16 times for 76 yards and a touchdown in Week 2's 22-6 victory over the Vikings, the secondstraight week he's reached double-digit carries,and he even caught one pass for four yards. The 25-year-old tallied double-digit carries five times all last season, so it bodes well for his usage that he was able to reach the double-digit plateau in both a pass-heavy game and a run-heavy game this early in the season. With the Falcons as five-point favorites in Week 3, it sets up as a spot for the team to lean more run than pass, and if Atlanta intends to keep Bijan Robinson fresh, Allgeier shouldcontinue to see involvement. The BYU product's best game in 2024 came in Week 6 against Carolina, rushing 18 times for 105 yards and a touchdown, and he added nine rushes for 52 in the Week 18 rematch. The Panther defense hasn't improved, so Allgeier should be viewed as a low-end RB3 or Flex option on Sunday.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Adonai Mitchell has been an afterthought in his team's offense this season, having caught just four passes for 41 scoreless yards in two games. Mitchell will hope to earn a larger role in a Week 3 road matchup against the Tennessee Titans. The Titans represent a plus matchup for Mitchell as they are allowing the sixth-most fantasy points per game to opposing wideouts through two games. Mitchell could also be pressed into more work as standout rookie tight end Tyler Warren is dealing with a toe injury and could be limited even if he ultimately ends up playing. Treat Mitchell as a desperation flex heading into Week 3.

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford is tough to trust in fantasy football ahead of his Week 3 matchup against the Philadephia Eagles. While Stafford is a talented veteran who is able to rack up touchdowns and limit turnovers in the Rams' offense, he'll face his toughest test of the season this week in the Eagles. Philadelphia has allowed the ninth-fewest fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks, limiting Patrick Mahomes II to 187 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. While a negative game script could work in Stafford's favor, the tough matchup and the quarterback's lack of rushing upside drop him to the low-end QB2 range this week. He's only worth starting in 2QB or superflex leagues.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. had a big Week 1, going for 80 yards and a touchdown, but was quieter last week, catching four passes for 40 yards in a win over the Denver Broncos. Pittman will look to get back into the end zone in a Week 3 road matchup against the Tennessee Titans. The Titans have been generous to opposing receivers through two games, allowing the sixth-most fantasy points per game to the position. Pittman also could see extra work as standout rookie tight end Tyler Warren is dealing with a toe injury and could be limited if he ultimately ends up playing. Treat Pittman as a mid-range WR4 in fantasy for Week 3.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Jaylin Lane could play a bigger role in Week 3 against the Raiders with Noah Brown (groin) out for the game. Lane has already played a decent amount on offense through two weeks, and he ran the fourth-most routes on the team in their Week 2 loss. The rookie caught only one of three targets for yards against a stingy Packers defense. Lane generated buzz during training camp for his speed and playmaking ability with the ball in his hands, and now he has a bigger opportunity. It will be interesting to see how offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury handles the key absences on offense, as both Lane and Deebo Samuel Sr. are better suited for the slot. Lane will be an interesting player to watch, but he isn't a viable fantasy option for Week 3.

From RotoBaller

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce will look to find the end zone for the first time in 2025 in a Week 3 road matchup against the Tennessee Titans. Pierce has shown his typical big-play ability, however, with a 44-yard reception already under his belt this year. The Titans represent a plus matchup for Pierce as they are allowing the sixth-most fantasy points per game to opposing receivers this season. Pierce isn't a primary look in the Indy offense, but he can explode for big games from time to time. He could also see a larger role as standout rookie tight end Tyler Warren is dealing with a toe injury and could be limited if he's able to play. Pierce is on the radar as a boom/bust flex option in fantasy heading into Week 3.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Josh Downs (ankle) shook off a slow Week 1 to post six catches for 51 yards in a Week 2 win over the Denver Broncos. He will look to keep it going in a Week 3 road matchup against the Tennessee Titans. Downs dealt with an ankle injury during practice this week, but practiced fully on Thursday and Friday, and does not have an injury designation heading into the weekend. The Colts have spread the ball around through two weeks, but Tyler Warren's toe injury could limit him this weekend, which would open up more work for Downs in the passing game. Treat Downs as a solid WR4/5 with a decent PPR floor heading into Week 3.

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Tyler Lockett has been nearly invisible to start the 2025 season. In his first year outside of Seattle, the veteran has managed just two catches for nine yards on four targets across two games. His playing time has dipped, seeing the field on only 53% of snaps while operating behind Calvin Ridley and rookie Elic Ayomanor. Lockett gets a Week 3 matchup with the Indianapolis Colts, who have allowed the 13th-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers so far in 2025. With the emergence of Ayomanor and no reliable snap share or target volume, Lockett remains off the fantasy radar for now.

Minnesota Vikings running back Jordan Mason is in line for a heavy workload in Week 3. Signed this offseason, Mason has already logged 24 carries for 98 yards through two games, and with Aaron Jones Sr. landing on injured reserve, the backfield is now his to lead. Mason proved last year with the 49ers that he can handle volume, producing 667 yards and three touchdowns on 128 carries across seven starts in 2024. Now he draws a favorable matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals, who have allowed the third-most half-PPR fantasy points to running backs early this season. With both opportunity and matchup working in his favor, Mason profiles as a high-end RB2 with RB1 upside in Week 3.

From RotoBaller

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor turned in a huge outing in a Week 2 win over the Denver Broncos. Taylor rushed for 165 yards on 25 carries while adding two receptions for 50 yards and a touchdown in the close win. The veteran running back will now turn his attention to a Tennessee Titans defense that is allowing the 10th-most fantasy points per game to opposing running backs through two games. The Colts have given Taylor a monster workload thus far in 2025, as he has gotten 43 of the 55 carries that have gone to running backs. Taylor can be trusted as a top-10 fantasy running back heading into Week 3.

From RotoBaller

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud III did not record a catch in Week 2 and garnered only two targets in the 22-6 victory over the Vikings. The Falcons leaned on their running backs in that one, with Michael Penix Jr. attempting just 21 passes and completing only 13 of them. With Darnell Mooney (shoulder) back on the field, it relegated McCloud to the fifth option in the passing attack, and he played just 23 percent of the snaps, which will limit his viability for fantasy in games that feature a run-heavy game script and a full complement of pass catchers. That could happen again in Week 3 with Atlanta as five-point favorites in Carolina. Also, with both Mooney and Kyle Pitts Sr. (toe) heading into the weekend without injury designations, there won't be many targets for the 28-year-old McCloud to absorb. Even if Penix throws 42 times like he did in the opener, the seventh-year pro is likely only to catch a few passes at most and is not a threat to score. That leaves McCloud as nothing more than a risky Flex dart throw in PPR leagues and a speculative GPP option.

Indianapolis Colts running back DJ Giddens was minimally involved in a Week 2 win over the Denver Broncos. Giddens did not receive a carry and was unable to haul in his lone target while Jonathan Taylor hogged most of the backfield work, totalling 27 touches. The Colts will head on the road to face off against the Tennessee Titans in Week 3, a team with a run defense that is allowing the 10th-most fantasy points per game to opposing running backs through two weeks. That being said, Giddens is unlikely to see much work this weekend unless the Colts get out to a big lead, leaving him as nothing more than a backend roster stash as a handcuff in fantasy leagues.
