Browns RB Quinshon Judkins endured a second straight terrible rushing day in the Week 2 win over the Bucs, taking his 12 carries for just 21 yards (1.8 per attempt). That followed a 12-33 rushing line in Week 1 (2.8 per rush) and marked the second straight game in which he trailed QB Deshaun Watson in rushing yardage. Judkins helped his PPR line by catching all five of his targets for 27 yards, marking just the second time in his young career that Judkins reached 5 catches in a game.

After a 28.9 PPR point Week 1 outburst, David Montgomery got out-carried by Woody Marks in a Week 2 loss to the Bengals. Montgomery produced just 10 yards with 6 carries and added 14 yards on two receptions for just 4.4 PPR points.

Browns WR Denzel Boston drew 7 targets in Sunday's win over the Buccaneers and finished with 5 catches for 95 yards and a TD. Most of his production came via a 55-yard TD late in the third quarter. Even that play sprang from a short target.

Rookie WR KC Concepcion led the Browns with 6 catches in Sunday's win over the Buccaneers, his second straight game as the reception leader to open the season. But Concepcion manaed just 28 yards for a 4.7-yard receiving average. That put him third on the team in receiving yards, trailing WR Denzel Boston (95) and TE Harold Fannin Jr. (54). Concepcion also led RB Quinshon Judkins by just 1 receiving yard (on one more reception).

Browns QB Deshaun Watson completed 24 of 30 passes (80%) for 238 yards, 2 TDs, and 0 INTs in Sunday's surprising 23-19 victory over the Buccaneers. His 121.9 passer rating tied for 14th-highest among 74 career regular-season appearances and ranked third among his Browns outings.

In a week where the Texans were down WR Nico Collins, it was Dalton Schultz that stepped up for this offense. The veteran TE led the team in receiving, catching 12 of his 14 targets for 140 yards and 26.0 PPR points.

In a game where Ja’Marr Chase put up 26.5 PPR points, it was Tee Higgins who led the Bengals in targets and yards. Higgins finished just shy of his first 100-yard game since Week 9 of last season after catching five of his 10 targets for 95 yards in a 14.5 PPR point Week 2 performance.

Colts WR Alec Pierce left in the first quarter of Sunday night's game against the Chiefs with an injury to his left heel. The team has deemed him questionable to return.

Update: The team downgraded Pierce to out before the start of the second half.

Ja’Marr Chase caught multiple touchdowns of at least 15 yards in a Bengals win where he produced 26.5 PPR points. The star WR hauled in seven of his 9 targets for 75 yards while adding two TD receptions to hold the WR5 ranking for Week 2 pending Sunday and Monday Night Football.

Commanders QB Jayden Daniels dislocated his left elbow in Sunday's loss to the Cowboys, HC Dan Quinn said afterward. X-rays on the elbow came back clean. This is the same injury that Daniels suffered in Week 9 last year. He missed the next 4 weeks (3 games plus a bye) before returning in Week 14, re-injuring the elbow, and missing the final 4 games of the season. We'll look for a timeline for Daniels' return this time around, but expect him to miss multiple games. That'll leave the starting job to QB Marcus Mariota, who threw for 111 yards and a score in the second half vs. Dallas today. Across 5 full games last season, Mariota averaged 17.9 fantasy points, which would have ranked 14th over the course of the season. He'll be a fringe QB1 option for as long as Daniels is out.

Seahawks RB Jadarian Price is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Cardinals with a chest injury. Seattle is nursing a big lead in the fourth quarter, so the rookie is unlikely to get back out there. We'll look for an update on his status.

Dolphins WR Caleb Douglas is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the 49ers with an ankle injury. Miami is down 29 with 5 minutes to go, so don't expect to see Douglas back out there. We should learn more about his injury over the next 24 hours.

Chargers TE Charlie Kolar left in the second half of Sunday's game vs. the Raiders with a forearm injury and is questionable to return. L.A. lost TE David Njoku to a knee injury earlier in this one, leaving TE Oronde Gadsden atop the depth chart.

49ers WR Mike Evans is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Dolphins with a hip injury. The Niners are up 35-6, so don't expect to see Evans back out there. We'll look for updates on the severity of this injury.

Update: HC Kyle Shanahan said after the game that Evans' injury isn't believed to be serious.

Broncos RB J.K. Dobbins suffered a hamstring injury in the second half Sunday's game vs. the Jaguars. He's officially questionable to return, but don't expect to see him back out there. With RB R.J. Harvey inactive with his own hamstring injury, Denver is down to RBs Jonah Coleman and Tyler Badie.

49ers WR Demarcus Robinson injured his ankle in the first half of Sunday's game vs. the Dolphins. He was carted back to the locker room and has been ruled out. San Francisco is already down WR Ricky Pearsall for the year and WR De'Zhaun Stribling for the next couple of months, leaving them very thin behind WRs Mike Evans and Deebo Samuel.

Update: The 49ers believe Robinson has a high-ankle sprain, HC Kyle Shanahan said after the win.

Commanders QB Jayden Daniels suffered an apparent left elbow injury on the final play of the first half of Sunday's game vs. the Cowboys. That's the same elbow Daniels hurt twice last year. The first cost him three games, and the second got him shut down for the final 4 games. Daniels was carted back to the locker room at halftime. We'll update his status when we know more. QB Marcus Mariota will finish out this game for Washington.

Update: Daniels has been ruled out.

Eagles RB Saquon Barkley said after the win over the Titans that he'll get an MRI on the stinger he suffered on his first carry. Barkley returned for a the start of the second half but had just 3 more carries and 1 catch the rest of the way. RBs Tank Bigsby (13 carries, 2 targets) and Will Shipley (7 carries, 2 targets) split work fairly evenly with Barkley limited. Bigsby came away with 38 yards and a TD to Shipley's 29 yards and would be the better fantasy play if Barkley misses time. We should learn more tomorrow.

Chargers TE David Njoku was carted off early in the second quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Raiders with an apparent knee injury. We'll update his status when we know more, but this obviously looks like a significant injury.

Update: Njoku has been ruled out with a knee injury.

Panthers RB Jonathon Brooks left in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Falcons with a groin injury. He notably dealt with groin trouble ahead of Week 1. We'll look for more information of the severity of this latest issue.

Update: HC Dave Canales said Brooks aggravated the injury he dealt with at the end of training camp and is day to day.
