Dyami Brown WR | WAS
Jaguars' Dyami Brown: Solid showing in Jags debut
Brown caught three of four targets for 52 yards and rushed twice for six yards during Sunday's 26-10 win over the Panthers.
The 25-year-old worked as Jacksonville's No. 3 wideout behind Travis Hunter and Brian Thomas and tied for third on the team in targets and receptions while finishing second in receiving yards. Brown joined the Jaguars on a one-year, $10 million deal in March after breaking out in the 2024 playoffs for the Commanders, and he should have a decent chance at a career year in 2025 after posting career highs with 30 receptions and 308 yards last season. That doesn't necessarily mean he'll have much fantasy relevance while operating as Jacksonville's No. 3 wide receiver, however.

Buccaneers' Rachaad White: Finishes with 16 total yards in win
White rushed twice for 14 yards and brought in his only target for two yards in the Buccaneers' 23-20 win over the Falcons on Sunday.
White unsurprisingly played a clear second fiddle to Bucky Irving, logging 12 fewer carries than his teammate. White also was three targets behind Irving and trailed the latter in snaps by a 44-14 margin. While the division of labor between the two wasn't typically as unbalanced down the stretch last season during Irving's ascension within the offense, White's fantasy outlook is bleak for the time being heading into a tough Week 2 road matchup against the Texans next Monday night.

LeQuint Allen RB | JAC
Jaguars' LeQuint Allen: Minor role in debut
Allen carried once for seven yards and caught his lone target for four yards during Sunday's 26-10 win against the Panthers.
The rookie seventh-round pick received both his touches during the first half and played just nine offensive snaps in his professional debut. Allen played a few more snaps than fellow rookie Bhayshul Tuten, but the specifics are a bit of a moot point after the Jaguars traded No. 2 tailback Tank Bigsby to the Eagles on Monday. Travis Etienne is entrenched as the starter, but it appears Allen and Tuten will now compete for the backup job as the only other running backs currently on the roster.

Bhayshul Tuten RB | JAC
Jaguars' Bhayshul Tuten: Carries thrice in NFL debut
Tuten had three carries for 11 yards and returned one kickoff for 12 yards during Sunday's 26-10 win over the Panthers.
The rookie fourth-round pick finished fourth among Jacksonville's tailbacks with just four offensive snaps, though he still garnered three carries in the blowout. Both Tuten and rookie seventh-rounder LeQuint Allen had minimal roles in the season opener, but the No. 2 job is wide open after the Jaguars traded Tank Bigsby to the Eagles on Monday. Travis Etienne is locked in as the starter after posting 156 yards from scrimmage Week 1, but Tuten and Allen are now positioned to compete for the backup job.

Blake Cashman LB | MIN
Vikings' Blake Cashman: Slated for MRI
Cashman will get an MRI on his hamstring, Ben Goessling of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.
Cashman was hurt in the third period of Monday's win over Chicago while attempting to chase down Bears QB Caleb Williams. The news that Cashman will undergo an MRI suggests that he could be dealing with an injury that's more than minor, though he probably won't receive a diagnosis until the results of the test come in. If Cashman were to miss time, Eric Wilson would likely step into a starting role.

Aidan Hutchinson DE | DET
Lions' Aidan Hutchinson: Blanked in Week 1
Hutchinson failed to record any stats while playing 45 defensive snaps in Sunday's 27-13 loss to the Packers.
Hutchinson made his much-anticipated return to action after missing the last 12 regular-season contests of the 2024 campaign while recovering from a season-ending leg injury. The 25-year-old played 96 percent of the defensive snaps against Green Bay, certainly a positive, but he was unable to make his mark on the contest. Hutchinson will look to be more productive in Week 2 versus Chicago.

Kerby Joseph SAF | DET
Lions' Kerby Joseph: Minimal impact in loss
Joseph recorded one solo tackle in Sunday's 27-13 loss to the Packers.
Joseph was a non-factor in Week 1, failing to record at least two tackles for the first time since Week 2 of the 2022 campaign, which was his second career game in the NFL. The safety is coming off a 2024 season in which he led the league with nine interceptions, while also matching a career-high 83 total tackles (58 solo) over 17 regular-season games. Joseph figures to be more involved in Week 2 against the Bears.

Jeff Okudah CB | MIN
Vikings' Jeff Okudah: Being evaluated for concussion
Okudah suffered a head injury and is being evaluated for a concussion following Monday's 27-24 win over the Bears, Ben Goessling of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.
Okudah sustained the injury on the final play of the contest Monday, taking a blow to the head while trying to make a play on wide receiver DJ Moore. If the cornerback is ultimately diagnosed with a concussion, he'll have a short week to attempt to clear protocol before Sunday's matchup with the Falcons.

Olamide Zaccheaus WR | ATL
Bears' Olamide Zaccheaus: Solid in Chicago debut
Zaccheaus caught four of seven targets for 42 yards in Monday's 27-24 loss to the Vikings.
Zaccheaus finished second on the team in both receiving yards and targets, trailing DJ Moore and Rome Odunze, respectively. Rookie second-round pick Luther Burden could eventually take on a larger role, but at least early in the season, Zaccheaus has the clear edge for the No. 3 wide receiver role in Chicago, as Burden had just one catch for minus-3 yards Monday. Zaccheaus will look to build on this promising Bears debut Week 2 against the Lions.

Demario Davis OLB | NYJ
Saints' Demario Davis: Tallies nine stops Week 1
Davis recorded nine tackles (seven solo) during Sunday's 20-13 loss to the Cardinals.
The 36-year-old iron man was one of five New Orleans players to line up for every defensive snap Week 1. Fellow off-ball linebacker Pete Werner tied him for a team high in tackles, though the 26-year-old played 91 percent of defensive snaps. Davis and Werner should continue to pace the Saints' defense in tackles this season, but the former looks like he's set to once again serve as the top off-ball linebacker. The Saints will next play versus the 49ers on Sunday.
