  • Blake Grupe K | LAR

    Saints' Blake Grupe: Makes two FGAs in Week 3

    Grupe went 2-for-3 on field-goal attempts and made one PAT in Sunday's 44-13 loss to Seattle.

    Grupe made field goals from 27 and 23 yards in the second quarter, but he also missed a 52-yard try with 2:53 left in the first half. The kicker is off to a slow start this season, going 4-for-7 on field-goal tries, missing at least one kick in each of the team's first three contests.

  • Chiefs' Patrick Mahomes: Leads KC to first victory

    Mahomes completed 22 of 37 pass attempts for 224 yards and a touchdown while rushing five times for two yards in Sunday's 22-9 win over the Giants.

    It wasn't Mahomes' prettiest game, but he managed to will Kansas City to its first win of the 2025 season. The star quarterback actually put the ball on the ground twice, but fantasy managers breathed collective sighs of relief when both fumbles were recovered by the Chiefs. Mahomes seemed more willing to take deep shots in this contest, dialing up Tyquan Thornton for a long score and drawing a massive pass interference penalty on a deep shot to Hollywood Brown that led to a quick field goal before halftime. Mahomes has yet to eclipse the 300-yard mark in passing through three starts, but he may be asked to air it out more against Lamar Jackson and the high-powered Ravens' offense next Sunday.

  • Cam Ward QB | TEN

    Titans' Cam Ward: Struggles against Colts

    Ward completed 23 of 38 passes for 219 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Sunday's 41-20 loss to the Colts. He added three rushes for 12 yards.

    Ward had a particularly ugly first half, as his second attempted pass of the day was intercepted and returned for a touchdown. That was his only turnover of the day, but he also took four sacks and averaged only 5.8 yards per attempt. Ward did manage to lead two touchdown drives in the second half with the game already out of reach, primarily showing rapport with Chig Okonkwo and Elic Ayomanor -- the latter of whom caught an eight-yard touchdown. Ward has shown glimpses of potential in his last two games, but the Titans' offense remains one of the worst in the league.

  • Rashid Shaheed WR | SEA

    Saints' Rashid Shaheed: Gains 42 yards Sunday

    Shaheed brought in four of six targets for 42 yards in Sunday's 44-13 loss to Seattle.

    Shaheed finished third in targets, receptions and yardage for the Saints in a one-sided affair Sunday. The 26-year-old has proven to be a solid fantasy option for those in deeper formats, averaging 4.7 receptions and 42.3 yards through three weeks. Expect Shaheed to continue providing a solid floor as New Orleans' No. 2 receiver in a road matchup against the Bills next Sunday.

  • Andre Szmyt K | CLE

    Browns' Andre Szmyt: Boots game-winning kick

    Szmyt converted both of his field-goal attempts and lone extra-point kick in Sunday's 13-10 win over the Packers.

    There were a few heroes on defense and special teams, but Szmyt gets the headliner. His 55-yard field goal with no time left on the clock won the game for the Browns. It was the second straight week of redemption for the kicker, who missed two kicks in the season-opening, one-point loss to the Bengals.

  • DeVonta Smith WR | PHI

    Eagles' DeVonta Smith: Finds end zone in Week 3

    Smith recorded eight receptions on nine targets for 60 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 33-26 win over the Rams.

    The Eagles were forced into a more aggressive offensive game plan after they fell behind by three scores early in the fourth quarter. Smith and A.J. Brown both benefited, with the former chipping in as a reliable target closer to the line of scrimmage. Smith also provided the game-winning touchdown on a four-yard out with just under two minutes remaining in the game. Smith's production will remain volatile, but he should have strong performances when the Eagles are forced to take to the air more often.

  • Patriots' Andres Borregales: No FGAs in Loss

    Borregales did not attempt a field goal and made both of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 21-14 loss to the Steelers.

    Borregales wasn't particularly busy in Week 3 as the Patriots squandered many scoring opportunities, turning the ball over five times in the loss. The kicker will look to be more active in the team's matchup with the Panthers in Week 4 . Through three games in his rookie campaign, Borregales has gone 4-for-5 on field-goal attempts and 4-for-6 on PATs.

  • Woody Marks RB | HOU

    Texans' Woody Marks: Tallies 36 total yards in loss

    Marks rushed six times for 27 yards and brought in one of two targets for nine yards in the Texans' 17-10 loss to the Jaguars on Sunday.

    Marks logged just three fewer carries than backfield mate Nick Chubb, recording new career highs in rush attempts and rushing yards in the process. The rookie fourth-round pick also recorded a reception for the second consecutive game, and Marks could see his role continue to expand in a Week 4 home matchup against a Titans defense that allowed 102 rushing yards and three touchdowns to Jonathan Taylor on Sunday.

  • Saints' Spencer Rattler: Mixed results in blowout loss

    Rattler completed 28 of 39 pass attempts for 218 yards, one touchdown and one interception while rushing twice for 10 yards in Sunday's 44-13 loss to the Seahawks.

    Rattler failed to recreate the three-touchdown performance we saw from him in Week 2, resulting in numbers closer to his pedestrian game against Atlanta to open the season. The Saints were outmatched from the jump, falling behind by 32 points at halftime. Things got so bad that rookie backup Tyler Shough saw the field in garbage time. It wouldn't be surprising to see the quarterbacks flip roles at some point this season for the 0-3 Saints. For now, Rattler figures to continue starting for New Orleans when the team travels to Buffalo next Sunday.

  • Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Two grabs in Week 3 loss

    Wicks brought in two of four targets with 21 yards in the Packers' 13-10 loss to the Browns on Sunday.

    Wicks retained a minor role in the Packers' first full game without Jayden Reed (IR, collarbone/foot), actually seeing a two-target drop from Week 2. Wicks has at least two catches in each of his first three games, but he's yet to top 44 receiving yards in any contest as the Packers prepare to head to Dallas for a Week 4 matchup against the Cowboys next Sunday night.
