  • Will Shipley RB | PHI

    Eagles' Will Shipley: Gets on stat sheet

    Shipley recorded two carries for four yards, one catch for eight yards, one kickoff return for 25 yards and one tackle on punt coverage in Sunday's 24-22 win over the Commanders.

    The running back actually got more carries than fellow backup Tank Bigsby, but Saquon Barkley unsurprisingly saw the vast majority of work out of Philadelphia's backfield. Shipley can contribute in multiple ways, but he is not a fantasy-relevant running back at this point.

  • Jake Elliott K | PHI

    Eagles' Jake Elliott: Perfect in close win

    Elliott made his sole field-goal attempt and converted all three of his PATs in Sunday's 24-22 win over the Commanders.

    Elliott made a 35-yard field goal and provided the consistency that Washington's Drew Stevens could not on PATs, something that ultimately decided the game in the Eagles' favor. The kicker heads into Week 2 without being tested from range, and it remains to be seen how the 31-year-old will fare on 50-yarders or more in 2026.

  • Ryan Flournoy WR | DAL

    Cowboys' Ryan Flournoy: Secures two catches in loss

    Flournoy caught two of four targets for 22 yards in Sunday night's 28-20 loss to the Giants.

    Flournoy started the contest, playing 41 of the team's 58 offensive snaps while operating as the No. 3 wide receiver behind CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens. Flournoy saw four or more targets only five times over 16 regular-season contests in 2025, and he'll have a limited ceiling as a fantasy asset as long as Pickens and Lamb are available.

  • Drew Stevens K | WAS

    Commanders' Drew Stevens: Struggles in loss

    Stevens missed one of his two field-goal attempts and one of his two PATs in Sunday's 24-22 loss to the Eagles.

    Stevens missed four total points of value in a game that was decided by two points. The undrafted free agent out of Iowa made a 55-yard field goal but missed one from 54 yards. The rookie's consistency will be something to watch as the Commanders head into a Week 2 matchup with the Cowboys that once again could come down to special teams execution.

  • Ben Sinnott TE | WAS

    Commanders' Ben Sinnott: Doesn't record a stat

    Sinnott played on 18 offensive snaps and 16 special-teams snaps but did not record a stat in Sunday's 24-22 loss to the Eagles.

    The tight end was third in his positional rotation behind Chig Okonkwo (38 snaps) and John Bates (32). Sinnott caught 16 passes across his first two regular seasons in the NFL, but he has functioned mainly as a blocker in his professional career.

  • Dylan Sampson RB | CLE

    Browns' Dylan Sampson: In line for extended absence

    Sampson (knee) is expected to miss "significant time," Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

    Sampson hurt his left knee in Sunday's Week 1 loss to Jacksonville and was on crutches while wearing a brace after the game. It appears that further evaluation on the running back has concluded that Sampson is dealing with a severe injury. It's not yet clear exactly how much time he'll miss, though there's certainly a chance he'll end up on IR. Raheim Sanders likely will take on a bigger role in Sampson's absence, and Jaleel McLaughlin could be summoned from the practice squad.

  • Jaylin Lane WR | WAS

    Commanders' Jaylin Lane: Has strong return day

    Lane caught his only target for four yards while returning four punts for 53 yards and three kickoffs for 95 yards in Sunday's 24-22 loss to the Eagles.

    Lane played 18 offensive snaps and 12 special-teams snaps in the contest. Lane's contribution of 148 total return yards helps further solidify his role as the team's primary returner.

  • Chiefs' Cooper McDonald: Ruled out with knee injury

    McDonald (knee) has been ruled out for the remainder of Monday night's game against the Broncos.

    McDonald made one tackle before exiting the game. The second-year player out of TCU is a rotational edge rusher on the Chiefs' defense, and his absence will likely mean more snaps for R Mason Thomas.

  • Jake Ferguson TE | DAL

    Cowboys' Jake Ferguson: Quiet in Week 1

    Ferguson caught both of his targets for six yards during Sunday night's 28-20 loss to the Giants.

    Ferguson along with quarterback Dak Prescott, amongst others, did not play during the preseason, and the team never really got into a groove on offense Week 1. The tight end remains the unquestioned No. 1 option at his position with Dallas, and he'll have a chance to be more involved Week 2 against Washington.

  • Myles Price WR | MIN

    Vikings' Myles Price: Returns kicks

    Price recorded five kickoff returns for 179 yards and one punt return for 13 yards in Sunday's 39-22 win over the Packers.

    The wide receiver also played on three offensive snaps but did not record a target. The second-year pro has yet to record a catch in his NFL career, but he seems to have a role as a returner.
