Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith had a rough day at the office in Week 8 against the Buffalo Bills. With top wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) out of the lineup, Smith and the Seahawks offense as a whole struggled to get anything going. Smith continued to be accurate (72% completion percentage), but he failed to throw a touchdown for the first time this season. Smith and the Seahawks seemed to be building offensive momentum after a great Week 7 in Atlanta, but that came crashing down in Week 8. Overall, the game was a mess for the Seahawks as they lost 31 to 10. Luckily, Metcalf's injury is not serious and he could return as soon as Week 9 against the Los Angeles Rams. Either way, expect Smith to have a better day next week against a softer defense.

Dynasty | Texans wide receiver John Metchie had three catches for 29 yards in a win against the Colts. Dynasty Analysis: The line isn't anything to write home about, but it's quite possible the Texans have lost Stefon Diggs at least in the short-term, and possibly for the season. If Nico Collins remains out, Metchie has a chance to finally emerge in dynasty leagues opposite Tank Dell. He should be on rosters everywhere at this point.

Dynasty | Packers running back Josh Jacobs had 127 rushing yards and two touchdowns in a win against Jacksonville. Dynasty Analysis: He added one catch for -2 yards. This was one of his best days as a Packer by far and it's even more notable because it looks like Jordan Love could miss some time with a groin injury. Regardless, Jacobs has been a workhorse for Green Bay and has done the same for dynasty managers all season. He's a prime trade target for a contending team as we get close to November.

Dynasty | Jaguars running back Tank Bigsby had 78 rushing yards in a loss against Green Bay. Dynasty Analysis: He added two catches for eight yards. Bigsby had a great opportunity to make a statement today with Travis Etienne out with an injury, but he just couldn't get much going. On the plus side, he did get the lion's share of the work as D'Ernest Johnson had just one carry compared to his 18. This will likely quiet some of the Etienne trade rumors, at least for a week. Bigsby remains a solid hold in dynasty leagues as his managers are hoping for him to get a backfield to himself someday, either in Jacksonville or elsewhere.

Dynasty | Tampa Bay tight end Cade Otton had nine catches for 81 yards and two touchdowns in a loss against Atlanta. Dynasty Analysis: Otton led the Bucs in targets with ten and made the most of them with the biggest day of his young career. With Mike Evans and Chris Godwin out, it seems Tampa Bay is going to look towards Otton to lead the receiving corps in the short-term. While this will likely be his best game of the year, he has 17 catches for 181 yards and those two scores over the past two weeks, making him an easy TE1 until further notice.

Dynasty | Bucs running back Bucky Irving had 44 rushing yards, seven catches and 40 receiving yards in a loss against the Falcons. Dynasty Analysis: Irving simply makes plays each and every week and looks like the best running back on the roster. While Rachaad White (11 touches) and Sean Tucker (three) aren't going anywhere any time soon, Irving looks like the best bet for fantasy production moving forward. Any injury to White would also vault him into the RB2 conversation at the very least. Irving has a solid future and remains a great hold in dynasty leagues.

New Orleans Saints RB Alvin Kamara rushed 10 times for 67 yards and caught six of his 11 targets for 55 yards in a 26-8 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 8.

Fantasy Spin: It has been a rough stretch for Kamara in terms of efficiency, but he found some room to run against the Chargers. More importantly, he continues to pile up receptions, allowing him to provide decent production despite the Saints' sputtering offense.

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen completed 24 of 34 pass attempts for 283 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception in the team's 31-10 victory over the Seattle Seahawks. He also added seven carries for 25 yards. Outside of his first interception of the season, Allen was in complete command of the offense. He led a 90-yard drive, capped by a two-yard touchdown reception by Keon Coleman, on Buffalo's first possession and the Bills never relinquished the lead. Allen's second touchdown pass came on a 12-yard strike to tight end Dalton Kincaid just before halftime. The 28-year-old was just inside QB1 range before Sunday and Monday Night Football. The Bills host the Miami Dolphins in Week 9.

San Francisco 49ers running back Jordan Mason (shoulder) exited Sunday night's matchup against the Dallas Cowboys in the second quarter with a shoulder injury and is questionable to return. He's racked up 18 yards on his six carries thus far. Mason looked to have injured himself earlier in the contest but was not brought into the blue medical tent for further evaluation. However, he was not out there for a 49ers series late in the first half and ultimately went to the locker room. For now, rookie running back Isaac Guerendo will take over lead duties in San Francisco's backfield. Expect an update on Mason shortly.

New York Jets wide receiver Davante Adams caught four of his six targets for 54 yards in a 25-22 loss to the New England Patriots in Week 8. Adams finished second on the Jets in targets, catches, and receiving yards behind only Garrett Wilson in the close loss but it goes down as his second straight pedestrian outing since the team acquired him from the Las Vegas Raiders ahead of Week 7. Adams should have better days ahead of him as he gets more acclimated to the New York offense but it appears that he is not going to be overtaking Wilson as the team's No. 1 receiver anytime soon. Adams will be a low-end WR2 in fantasy heading into Week 9's Thursday night game against the Houston Texans.

New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin caught three of his four targets for 42 yards and a touchdown in a 25-22 loss to the New England Patriots in Week 8. Conklin brought down Aaron Rodgers' first touchdown pass of the game on a two-yard catch in the first quarter. The veteran tight end is quietly putting together a solid fantasy season as he now has 26 catches for 240 yards and two touchdowns through eight games. Conklin will be a streaming option heading into Week 9's Thursday night game against the Houston Texans.

New York Jets kicker Greg Zuerlein saw his struggles continue in a 25-22 loss to the New England Patriots in Week 8. Zuerlein made one of his two field-goal attempts and missed one of his two extra points in the close loss to the Pats on Sunday. The veteran kicker has been erratic in 2024 as he has now missed four field goals over his past three games played. Overall, Zuerlein has hit nine of his 15 field goals through eight games. He will look to bounce back against the Houston Texans in Week 9's Thursday night game.

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews scored for the third straight week during the 29-24 loss to the Cleveland Browns. Andrews posted five receptions, 36 yards, and a touchdown on five targets. National Tight End Day meant the veteran almost had to score to celebrate properly. This marked his fourth touchdown in three games and his fourth consecutive game with three or more receptions. Lamar Jackson and Andrews seem to have found their rhythm again. The veteran hopes to keep the momentum going in a Week 9 matchup against the Denver Broncos.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Christian Kirk (collarbone) will miss the remainder of the 2024 season after suffering a broken collarbone in Sunday's 30-27 loss to the Green Bay Packers. He finished his night recording 59 yards on 2-of-5 receiving. The seventh-year wideout exited the game early in the fourth quarter after landing hard on his left shoulder while going after a deep shot from Trevor Lawrence and immediately went to the locker room -- a foreboding sign. What was initially considered a shoulder injury will effectively end his season. It's a big blow to Jacksonville, as their offense appeared to be finding its footing over the last few weeks. Additionally, Kirk had his name thrown around in trade circles ahead of the Nov. 5 deadline. In his stead, WRs Brian Thomas Jr. and Gabe Davis figure to earn more targets, while Parker Washington and Tim Jones will fill in for three-wide-receiver sets.

The New York Jets allowed 25 points while picking up two sacks in a 25-22 loss to the New England Patriots in Week 8. The performance goes down as a disappointment as the Patriots had to turn to backup Jacoby Brissett after starter Drake Maye was knocked out of the game early in the second quarter. The Jets were led by Quinnen Williams, who had 1.5 sacks in the loss. New York will now have a short turnaround as they will face the Houston Texans in Week 9's Thursday night game.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Nelson Agholor found paydirt for the first time in the 29-24 loss to the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. He finished with three receptions for 36 yards and a touchdown on five targets. Agholor was tied for second-most targets with Mark Andrews and Rashod Bateman. He hauled in his touchdown pass at the end of the first half which put the Ravens up momentarily until a disastrous second half. Agholor's next chance to find the end zone will be in Week 9 against the Denver Broncos.

Denver Broncos running back Jaleel McLaughlin totaled 47 yards on his eight carries in the team's 28-14 victory over the Carolina Panthers. The second-year back added nine yards and a touchdown on his lone target. McLaughlin was again efficient with his touches, notching his third outing of the season with 5+ yards per carry and his second in as many weeks. The receiving touchdown was his second on the season and third total of the campaign -- one more than backfield mate Javonte Williams. He's been effective in his change-of-pace role in Denver's offense. The former undrafted free agent has a bit more juice than his counterpart; however, he's considerably more diminutive in stature than Williams. Standing three inches shorter (5-foot-7) and over 30 pounds lighter, he may never take over Denver's "thumper" role and likely won't garner standalone value unless the fourth-year back is forced to miss time. The Broncos will take on the Ravens next Sunday in Week 9.

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry scored a late touchdown to continue his scoring streak and salvage his day for fantasy managers. The King ended with 73 yards and a touchdown on 11 carries. He also hauled in his lone target for four yards. This game looked bleak for the offense as a whole while they failed to convert on many third downs and the Browns got out to a second-half lead. Luckily, Henry punched in a goal-line score near the end of the fourth quarter to deliver a borderline RB1 performance. He'll look to get back to his big outputs against the Denver Broncos in Week 9.

New York Jets running back Braelon Allen carried the ball 12 times for 32 yards and a touchdown in a 25-22 loss to the New England Patriots in Week 8. Allen was surprisingly reinserted into the Jets' offense after seeing just 10 total carries in the previous three games. The rookie running back found the end zone for the third time this season on a two-yard carry in the fourth quarter. Allen remains a priority handcuff to Breece Hall in fantasy, although his inconsistent workload every week makes him tough to trust in starting lineups. He will next take on the Houston Texans in Week 9's Thursday night game.

From RotoBaller

New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson caught five of his eight targets for 113 yards in a 25-22 loss to the New England Patriots in Week 8. Wilson led the Jets in all receiving categories while averaging a season-high 22.6 yards per catch in the close loss to the Patriots. The veteran wideout has been playing well of late as this goes into the books as his third 100-yard receiving game over his past four contests. Wilson will be a low-end WR1 in fantasy heading into Week 9's Thursday night game against the Houston Texans.
