  • 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.

  • Chiefs' Mansoor Delane: Ruled out with shoulder injury

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

    Delane kick-started his NFL debut by intercepting Bo Nix on the Broncos' opening possession. The cornerback's injury may be a flare-up of an existing issue he struggled with throughout OTAs. With the first-round rookie ruled out, Nohl Williams will likely see more snaps at outside cornerback.

  • Trey Smack K | GB

    Packers' Trey Smack: Buries 59-yarder in debut

    Smack made all three of his field-goal attempts while missing one of two PATs in Sunday's 39-22 loss to the Vikings.

    Smack made field goals from 59, 43 and 26 yards but fell short of a flawless night after missing an extra-point try. The sixth-round rookie had a strong debut overall with 10 total points.

  • Skyy Moore WR | GB

    Packers' Skyy Moore: Logs 17 return yards versus Vikings

    Moore failed to catch his only target and returned two punts for 17 yards during Green Bay's loss to the Vikings on Sunday.

    Moore saw the majority of his playing time on special teams, seeing 11 snaps compared to only four on offense. The 2022 second-round pick of the Chiefs will likely continue to serve as the Packers' primary returner going forward while seeing limited action on offense.

  • Dylan Laube RB | LV

    Raiders' Dylan Laube: Makes mark in win

    Laube recorded two fair catches on punts, two kickoff returns for 95 yards and two tackles during Sunday's 27-13 win versus the Dolphins.

    Laube only played 10 of Las Vegas' 68 offensive snaps in Week 1, but he had two long kickoff returns, both of which set up Raiders touchdowns. One of his tackles came after a Kirk Cousins interception early in the fourth quarter. There won't be any complaints from the coaching staff about his effort, but fantasy managers probably can't expect reliable production barring an injury ahead of Laube on the running back depth chart.

  • Packers' Kaleb Johnson: Produces in few snaps

    Johnson returned two kickoffs for 52 yards in Sunday's 39-22 loss to the Vikings.

    Johnson played just two special-teams snaps in the contest, touching the ball on each. The third-string running back did not see a carry behind MarShawn Lloyd or Chris Brooks, but he may have earned a bigger role as a returner in a Week 2 matchup against the Jets.

  • Ian Thomas TE | LV

    Raiders' Ian Thomas: Sees offensive snaps in win

    Thomas played 31 offensive snaps but did not record any stats in Sunday's 27-13 win over the Dolphins.

    Thomas played 45 percent of the Raiders' offensive snaps during Week 1, helping Ashton Jeanty to a 102-yard rushing day. The No. 3 tight end figures to primarily operate in the trenches unless multiple injuries strike the tight-end position.
