Cleveland Browns All-Pro defensive end Myles Garrett (foot) was limited in practice on Friday and was removed from the final injury report, meaning he will be active in Week 3 on Sunday versus the New York Giants. There was some concern as to whether Garrett could play this weekend after he missed practices on Wednesday and Thursday. The 28-year-old pass-rusher said he's feeling better after practice on Friday and needs to remain in all starting IDP lineups now that he's locked in to play. There's the risk of the Browns limiting Garrett's defensive snaps if he's not 100 percent, but Garrett is a talent that needs to be starting if he's active. The five-time Pro Bowler has two sacks, five solo tackles and two forced fumbles through two weeks in 2024 after winning Defensive Player of the year for the first time in his career in 2023.

Cleveland Browns running back D'Onta Foreman saw a major uptick in playing time from Week 1 to Week 2. After playing just one snap in Week 1, Foreman led the team with 14 carries in their Week 2 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 2. Foreman could see another hefty workload at home in his team's Week 3 showdown against the New York Giants. The Giants have struggled to slow down opposing running backs in 2024, allowing the eighth-most fantasy points per game to the position thus far. The Browns are installed as 6.5-point favorites, so Foreman could see plenty of clock-killing carries in the second half if this game goes as expected. Foreman settles in as a decent flex option heading into Week 3.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Amari Cooper is off to an extremely slow start in 2024, posting just five catches for 27 yards with a handful of bad drops. He will look to turn things around at home in Week 3 against the New York Giants. The Giants have been solid against receivers so far this season, allowing just the 19th-most fantasy points per game to the position. Cooper is tough to trust based on his first two games and could soon be passed by Jerry Jeudy as the team's No. 1 receiver, who has handily outproduced him this season. Treat Cooper as a low-end WR3 in fantasy heading into Week 3.

Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson has thrown for 355 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions through two games thus far this season. He will look for his first multi-touchdown game at home in Week 3 against the New York Giants. The Giants have been decent against quarterbacks this season, allowing the 18th-most fantasy points per game to the position. The main concern with Watson here is that the Browns could get out to an early lead which would allow Watson to spend much of the afternoon handing the ball off to his running backs. Due to pass volume concerns and general mediocre play from Watson this season, he settles in as a mid-range QB2 heading into Week 3.

Dallas Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs (foot) was removed from the Week 3 injury report on Friday after putting in a full practice. Diggs was held out on Wednesday before being upgraded to a limited session on Thursday. He will be active on Sunday to face the visiting Baltimore Ravens and will likely be tasked with trying to slow down Ravens top receiver Zay Flowers. The ball-hawking defensive back already has one interception through two games to go with 10 total tackles (eight solo) and two pass breakups. It's great news for Dallas' defense/special teams unit that Diggs will be able to play this weekend, but the Cowboys D/ST is a clear fade in DFS and season-long formats this weekend against a Ravens team that has their back against the wall and is desperately trying to avoid going 0-3 early on. Baltimore's offense has averaged 21.5 points through the first two weeks of 2024.

Cleveland Browns running back Jerome Ford saw D'Onta Foreman steal away a large chunk of his workload in a Week 2 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. After Ford saw all but two running back carries in Week 1, Foreman out-carried him 14 to seven last week. The Browns will now welcome the New York Giants to Cleveland in Week 3. The Giants have struggled this season and the game script could favor Foreman, who presumably would be on the field for the majority of the second half if the Browns can build a lead and go into clock-killing mode. Ford still can do damage in the passing game but he settles in as an RB3 due to volume concerns in Week 3.

Indianapolis Colts kicker Matt Gay (quadriceps) has been removed from the final injury report on Friday and will kick in Week 3 at Lucas Oil Stadium against the visiting Chicago Bears. Gay missed the season-opening loss to the division-rival Houston Texans after having sports-hernia surgery but returned in last week's loss to the Green Bay Packers. The 30-year-old made his only extra-point try while going 1-for-2 on his field-goal attempts at Lambeau Field. Gay missed practice on Wednesday due to a new quad injury but practiced in full on both Thursday and Friday, assuring he will play on Sunday. Going up against a stout Bears defense and potentially without their top receiver in Michael Pittman Jr. (back, calf), Gay isn't a recommended fantasy streamer for Week 3.

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Evan Engram (hamstring) missed a second straight practice this week on Friday and appears to be trending toward missing a second straight game in Week 3 on Monday night against the Buffalo Bills. Engram injured his hamstring during pre-game warmups before the Week 2 loss to the Cleveland Browns. He will likely need to return to practice on Saturday to avoid being ruled out on the final injury report of the week. As of right now, fantasy managers should plan to be without the 30-year-old veteran. With Engram out last Sunday, Brenton Strange stepped up as the top pass-catching TE and played 68% of the offensive snaps, catching three of his six targets for 65 yards. The Bills defense has been vulnerable so far through two games to the TE position, but Strange will still be only a TE2 sleeper for fantasy lineups if Engram misses a second straight game.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs travels with the Packers to Nashville to take on the Titans in Week 3, where he'll be considered a flex option for fantasy managers. Doubs led the Packers in receiving yards with 62 in Green Bay's 16-10 win, but overall, the passing game was a distant second in importance to the run game. With just 14 pass attempts, passing volume was extremely hard to come by as the Packers employed a very conservative run-heavy approach to the game plan against the Colts in Week 2. That's the likely game plan in Week 3 should Willis get the starting nod. Starting quarterback Jordan Love (knee) has left the door open a crack with his availability this week, entering the weekend on the injury report with a questionable designation. If Love does end up playing, the offense is immediately upgraded. If Willis is starting, then consider Doubs a low-end flex option in Week 3.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Greg Dortch (hamstring) popped up on Friday's injury report after putting in a limited practice session and is considered questionable to play in Week 3 against the visiting Detroit Lions. It suggests that Dortch suffered a hamstring injury in practice on Friday, which isn't a good sign for his availability this weekend. Making things even more worrisome for fantasy managers in deeper leagues that were considering the 26-year-old as a flex play is the fact that the Cardinals and Lions won't kick off until the later slate of games on Sunday. If Dortch is limited or held out entirely, it will mean more targets for rookie receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. and tight end Trey McBride, with wideout Michael Wilson likely serving as quarterback Kyler Murray's WR2. Dortch is worth a deep-league stash for WR depth after catching eight of 10 targets for 58 yards in the first two weeks.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (calf) is all set to play in Week 3 as he's been on the injury report after practicing in a limited fashion during the last two practices with a calf injury. With Reed off the injury report heading into the weekend, it's going to be tough to recommend Reed unless Jordan Love (knee) sends up starting. It seems much more likely that Malik Willis gets another start this week and if that's the case, the passing volume will be tough to come by. The Packers dropped back to pass just 17 times and only had 14 pass attempts in their 16-10 win over the Indianapolis Colts in Week 2. Reed caught two targets for nine yards and had two rushing attempts for 37 yards, so the fantasy points floor is extremely low if the Packers keep close to the same game plan against the Titans. Reed is a low-end flex play for Week 3 based on the lack of opportunity should Willis start again.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White (groin) was upgraded to a full practice participant on Friday and was removed from the final Week 3 injury report. White will be active on Sunday versus the visiting Denver Broncos despite suffering a groin injury in the Week 2 win over the Detroit Lions. He was limited in the first two practices this week before upgrading to full on Friday. The 25-year-old's poor performance through two weeks of the 2024 season and the fact he's coming off an injury don't really make him an all that attractive RB2, with the possibility that backup Bucky Irving could get more work this weekend. White has averaged a weak 2.0 yards per carry on his 25 rushing attempts (49 yards) through the first two games. The good news is that White is facing a Broncos defense that was terrible against the run last year, and they've allowed the 11th-most half-PPR points to RBs so far in 2024.

From RotoBaller

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs (back) has had his practice reps limited this week, but enters the weekend off of the injury report. Jacobs is good to go this weekend and should inspire some confidence this week against the Tennessee Titans after last week's game plan with starting quarterback Malik Willis. While the Packers will still use Jacobs as a workhorse running back regardless of quarterback, the Packers clearly designed their entire offense around it in Week 2 with just 14 pass attempts and 53 rushing attempts. Jacobs rushed the ball 32 times for 151 yards in the Packers' 16-10 win last week, and another big workload means a top-12 fantasy finish may be in order yet again in Week 3. Love may return from injury to play in Week 3, but it's more likely Willis is in at quarterback for another week. Either way, fire up Jacobs as a locked-in RB1.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (quadriceps) practiced in full all week and was removed from the final Week 3 injury report on Friday. St. Brown will be active this Sunday as the team takes on the Arizona Cardinals on the road. There was never much concern about whether the 24-year-old would play this weekend after leaving the Week 2 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers temporarily due to a quad contusion and cramping. He bounced back last week with 11 catches on 18 targets for 119 yards after going for three grabs and only 13 receiving yards in the season-opening win over the Los Angeles Rams. Fantasy managers need to keep St. Brown locked into all starting lineups against a Cardinals defense that has surrendered the 10th-most half-PPR fantasy points to opposing wideouts through the first two weeks of the season against the Bills and Rams.

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (chest) is officially listed as doubtful to suit up in Week 3 on the road at Lumen Field on Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks. It appears as though Mostert needs another week of recovery, which isn't a surprise after head coach Mike McDaniel said he was "pessimistic" about Mostert playing earlier on Friday. Mostert suffered a chest injury in the Week 1 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars and sat out on a short week last Thursday in the blowout loss to the division-rival Buffalo Bills. With quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) out for the foreseeable future, look for Miami to lean on running back De'Von Achane heavily against Seattle this weekend. Achane saw 29 touches against Buffalo last week. With Mostert likely out a second straight week, Jeff Wilson Jr. and rookie Jaylen Wright will be sprinkled in when Achane needs a blow.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Malik Willis is likely to get another start this week as the Packers head to Nashville to take on the Tennessee Titans in Week 3. With Jordan Love (knee) officially questionable on the Packers' injury report, the door is open for Love, but realistically, Willis is a pretty solid favorite to start and play in Week 3. Willis' first start with the Packers against the Colts in Week 2 was carefully managed as he completed 12-of-14 passes for 122 yards and a touchdown, while also adding 41 rushing yards. Head coach Matt LaFleur didn't ask Willis to do too much, but Willis didn't turn the ball over and let the run game do the heavy lifting. The Packers likely mimic the same approach in Week 3 as Green Bay should run the ball with heavy volume and use the pass as a change of pace. Consider Willis a low-end QB2 and a weaker streaming candidate in fantasy this week against Tennessee.

San Francisco 49ers defensive end Nick Bosa (rib) and cornerback Charvarius Ward (hamstring, knee) are both listed as questionable to face the division-rival Los Angeles Rams in Week 3 action on Sunday. Bosa was not on the first injury report of the week, suggesting he picked up his rib injury during practice on Thursday. Fantasy managers in IDP leagues need to have a backup plan ready in case Bosa is ruled out on Sunday, and it makes things more difficult that the Niners-Rams don't kick off until the later window this weekend. Through the first two weeks in 2024, the All-Pro pass-rusher has seven tackles (five solo) and two sacks for a vaunted Niners D. If Bosa is active, he needs to be in all starting IDP lineups while going up against a banged-up Rams offensive line and offense that is without top receivers Cooper Kupp (ankle) and Puka Nacua (knee).

Green Bay Packers kicker Brayden Narveson has been a top-12 fantasy kicker in his first two starts in the NFL, but can he make it a third straight? He'll head with the Packers to Tennessee to play the Titans in Week 3 and has put up 11 and 12 fantasy points against the Eagles and Colts. He's made three field goals in both starts, while also missing one field goal. Narveson has not missed an extra point attempt this season and the Packers could be a sneaky offense to get him into field goal position to knock a couple field goals through. The outlook for the Packers looks much better if Jordan Love (knee) can shake his questionable tag and play in Week 3, but even if the starter is Malik Willis, Narveson should be at worst a streaming option at kicker. Just know the floor for Narveson is very low if the wheels fall off for either quarterback.

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (hamstring) is officially listed as doubtful to play in Week 3 on Sunday against the division-rival Los Angeles Rams after missing practice the last two days. Running back Christian McCaffrey (Achilles, calf) is on Injured Reserve, and receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. (calf) has been ruled out as well, so the Niners' offense is extremely banged up early in the year. It's bad news for fantasy managers that have been rolling with quarterback Brock Purdy as their QB1. With Kittle unlikely to play on Sunday, look for both Brandon Aiyuk and Jauan Jennings to handle as many targets as they can. Eric Saubert is expected to be the team's starting TE with Kittle out, although he's not a recommended fantasy streamer, as Jake Tonges could also be involved as a pass-catcher. Hopefully Kittle will be ready to return in Week 4 at home against the New England Patriots.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. (calf) has officially been ruled out for the Week 3 game this Sunday versus the division-rival Los Angeles Rams on the road. It doesn't come as much of a surprise after Samuel was unable to practice all week after suffering a calf injury in the Week 2 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. The 28-year-old is expected to miss multiple weeks, so fantasy managers can't assume that he'll be back for a Week 4 matchup against the New England Patriots. Running back Christian McCaffrey (Achilles, calf) is on Injured Reserve, and tight end George Kittle (hamstring) is doubtful to play this weekend, which leaves Brandon Aiyuk and Jauan Jennings as the Niners' top two pass-catchers. Without CMC, Samuel and Kittle, fantasy managers need to be downgrading quarterback Brock Purdy to QB2 territory against LA.
