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.

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.

From RotoBaller

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers overcame his ankle injury to suit up for Week 8 and he delivered yet another 100-yard performance. In the 29-24 loss to the Cleveland Browns, he ended up with seven receptions for 115 yards on 12 targets. He didn't see any work in the ground game on this one, but he remained Lamar Jackson's top target out of all the pass-catchers. Flowers has tremendous value in PPR formats as he's posted three WR1 performances and had two without scoring a touchdown. He'll look to find the end zone in Week 9 against the Denver Broncos.

From RotoBaller

New York Jets running back Breece Hall carried the ball 16 times for 80 yards and caught one of his three targets for nine yards in a 25-22 loss to the New England Patriots in Week 8. Hall turned in a solid game on the ground but saw Braelon Allen vulture a short touchdown from him while also siphoning away 12 carries in the close loss. Hall's output in the passing game also comes as a disappointment after he racked up 11 catches for 159 yards in his previous two games. He will be a solid RB1 in fantasy heading into a Week 9 Thursday night matchup against the Houston Texans.

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins enjoyed another big day versus Tampa Bay, completing 23 of 29 passes for 276 yards and four touchdowns without throwing a pick. The 36-year-old signal-caller even chipped in 16 yards on three carries. The veteran QB probably wishes he could face the Buccaneers every week, now with 785 yards and an 8:1 TD:INT in two games versus their divisional foe. He'll finish the week as a top-five QB for fantasy, however, the 13-year pro has been fairly pedestrian otherwise, averaging 220 yards per game with a 6:6 TD:INT, those two games versus the Bucs notwithstanding. Cousins will get a somewhat favorable matchup in Week 9 against the Cowboys and figures to be a QB2 with QB1 upside again.

From RotoBaller

New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers completed 17 of his 28 passes for 233 yards and two touchdowns in a 25-22 loss to the New England Patriots in Week 8. Rodgers and the Jets turned in an uneven performance in losing to the underdog Patriots as they struggled to move the ball at times and were unable to hold onto a five-point lead with three minutes left in the fourth quarter. Rodgers' touchdown passes went to Tyler Conklin and Xavier Gipson in the close loss to their AFC East rivals. The veteran quarterback came into the game dealing with hamstring and knee injuries but he appeared to emerge from the contest without any further injury. Rodgers will look to regroup ahead of Week 9's Thursday night game against the Houston Texans.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson posted his most inefficient throwing day but is able to put together a QB1-level fantasy performance. He registered 289 yards and two touchdowns while throwing 23-for-38 and added 46 yards on eight carries. Jackson led the offense down the field to get a late-game lead when Derrick Henry punched in a two-yard score, but was unable to make up for their defense's mistakes in a final game-winning drive. The Ravens' third-down offense couldn't convert for most of the game either. That said, the two-time MVP still posted a high-quality fantasy day. They'll return home for a Week 9 matchup against the Denver Broncos.

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley caught ten passes on a season-high 15 targets for 143 yards in the 52-14 loss to Detroit on Sunday. The squeaky wheel got the grease in this one as Ridley finally broke through with a huge performance in his seventh game as a Titan. It was abundantly clear that the game plan was to hyper-target Ridley, especially with DeAndre Hopkins gone, and it paid off in a big way for those that played the speedster. He was in-sync with quarterback Mason Rudolph from the jump, putting up hauling in passes of 26 and 47 yards in the first quarter that helped him reach the century mark in that period. While the rest of the afternoon was relatively quiet, fantasy managers can only rejoice when seeing a performance like this from Ridley who has been quite a let down through the first part of the 2024 season. Up next is a Week 9 intra-conference clash with the New England Patriots in Nashville.

From RotoBaller

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Elijah Moore caught eight of his 12 targets for 85 yards in a 29-24 win over the Baltimore Ravens in Week 8. Moore led the Browns in targets and catches while finishing second in receiving yards in the upset win over the Ravens. The eight-catch, 85-yard game from Moore was easily his best effort of the 2024 season as he showed instant chemistry with new starting quarterback Jameis Winston. Moore is all of a sudden on the fantasy radar as a possible flex option moving forward now that Winston is under center. He will look to stay hot against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 9.

From RotoBaller

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku caught five of his seven targets for 61 yards and a touchdown in a 29-24 win over the Baltimore Ravens in Week 8. Njoku finished fourth on the Browns in receiving yards while hauling in a 23-yard touchdown pass from Jameis Winston in the third quarter, his second touchdown catch over his past two games. The veteran tight end is looking like a top option at the position moving forward with the Cleveland offense all of a sudden looking competent with Winston under center. Treat Njoku as a high-end TE1 heading into Week 9 against the Los Angeles Chargers.

From RotoBaller

Cleveland Browns kicker Dustin Hopkins made all three of his field-goal attempts and added two extra points in a 29-24 win over the Baltimore Ravens in Week 8. Hopkins hit field goals from 28, 33, and 48 yards out in the upset win over the Ravens. The veteran kicker has now made 13 of his 16 attempts through eight games. With the Cleveland offense looking the best it has all year in Jameis Winston's first start of the season, Hopkins is all of a sudden looking like a viable fantasy option heading into Week 9 against the Los Angeles Chargers.
