Hooper was on the field for 37 of 60 snaps on offense in Sunday's 33-27 win over the Dolphins, en route to catching all three of his targets for 38 yards, per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com.

Fellow TE Hunter Henry logged 51 snaps in the contest but caught just one of three targets for nine yards. Given a playing-time arrangement that favors Henry, Hooper -- who caught one pass for 10 yards in Week 1 -- profiles as a hit-or-miss fantasy option ahead of the Patriots' Week 3 game against the Steelers.

Henry was on the field for 51 of 60 snaps on offense in Sunday's 33-27 win over the Dolphins, per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com, and he caught one of three targets for nine yards.

Fellow tight end Austin Hooper logged 37 snaps and caught all three of his targets for 38 yards. Given that Henry -- who caught four of eight targets for 66 yards in Week 1 -- was on the field for nearly every play Sunday, he'll have an opportunity to make a fantasy contribution most weeks, but the Patriots' upgraded WR room gives Drake Maye more options in the passing game than he had in 2024, when the veteran TE posted career highs in catches (66), targets (97) and yards (674).

Washington failed to secure his lone target during Sunday's 31-17 loss to the Seahawks.

Washington matched Pat Freiermuth's snap count during last week's regular-season opener. However, Washington played just 36 percent of the Steelers' offensive snaps in Week 2 compared to 51 percent for Freiermuth and 56 percent for Jonnu Smith. Washington was targeted for the first time this season despite his slight decrease in playing time, but he appears unlikely to have a fantasy-relevant role in 2025.

Wilson recorded six tackles and an interception in Sunday's 40-37 overtime win over the Giants.

After managing only one tackle in the Cowboys' opener, Wilson made a much bigger impact in Week 2, with his INT on a deep Russell Wilson pass in OT setting up Brandon Aubrey's game-winning field goal. Wilson the safety racked up at least 80 tackles in three straight seasons coming into 2025, and he'll be a key part of the secondary once again.

Heyward secured his lone target for six yards during Sunday's 31-17 loss to Seattle.

Although Heyward's snap count ranked fourth among the Steelers' tight ends Sunday, he recorded his first catch of the regular season during the loss. While it was encouraging to see him generate some offensive production in Week 2, he appears to be clearly behind Jonnu Smith, Pat Freiermuth and Darnell Washington on Pittsburgh's depth chart.

Williams was on the field for 10 of 60 snaps on offense in Sunday's 33-27 win over the Dolphins, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

The 2025 third-rounder wasn't targeted by QB Drake Maye in Week 2, and while Williams could see his role in the Patriots offense grow as the season progresses, for now he's off the fantasy radar.

Houston recorded two tackles, including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 40-37 overtime win over the Giants.

The veteran edge rusher saw limited snaps once again in a rotational role for the Cowboys, but Houston made his opportunities count in this one. Dallas is struggling to find a consistent pass rush in the wake of the Micah Parsons trade -- the team signed Jadeveon Clowney to a one-year deal immediately after Sunday's win -- and Houston could earn more playing time if he continues to make an impact. Injuries have limited him throughout his career, but he did pile up 8.0 sacks in just seven regular-season games for the Lions as a rookie back in 2022. Sunday's sack was only his second over 15 games since then, however.

Hollins caught one of two targets for an eight-yard touchdown in Sunday's 33-27 win over the Dolphins.

Hollins was on the field for 39 of 60 snaps on offense in the contest per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com. The wideout has recorded one catch in each of his first two games this season, and despite Sunday's score, Hollins remains a speculative fantasy option at best while fighting for targets with Stefon Diggs, Kayshon Boutte, DeMario Douglas and Kyle Williams among New England's WRs, plus tight ends Hunter Henry and Austin Hooper.

Tremayne caught three of five targets for 48 yards during Sunday's 27-22 loss to the Cardinals.

With Jalen Coker (quadriceps) beginning the season on injured reserve, Tremayne has received more offensive snaps and played as the Panthers' No. 4 wideout through two games. He had the best performance of his NFL career in Week 2, catching three of his five targets for 48 yards despite playing just 15 offensive snaps. Tremayne is expected to remain one of the top depth options in Carolina's wide receiver corps until Coker returns to the field.

Clark recorded four tackles, including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 40-37 overtime win over the Giants.

The former Packer racked up his first sack as a Cowboy when he brought down Russell Wilson just before halftime, helping to force a Giants punt. Clark has looked good through two games in the middle of the Dallas defensive line, collecting nine tackles (four solo), and he appears fully recovered from the foot issue that limited his production in 2024.
