Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Britain Covey caught all six of his targets for 23 yards during the team's 22-21 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. The second-year receiver saw the second-highest target share of the night behind DeVonta Smith and was much more effective than preseason acquisition Jahan Dotson. With A.J. Brown (hamstring) set to miss a couple of games, Covey should remain a staple in the Eagles' passing attack, especially on short passes and screen plays. While it may not equate to a ton of fantasy value, he is a worthwhile addition in dynasty formats and a floor play in deep PPR leagues heading into the team's Week 3 matchup against the New Orleans Saints.

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert caught three of four targets for 38 yards during the team's 22-21 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. The veteran was expected to see a larger target share with star receiver A.J. Brown (hamstring) out this week, but depth receiver Britain Covey saw six targets, and backup Grant Calcaterra got involved with a couple of targets of his own. Atlanta's defense is no slouch, but this was an underwhelming fantasy performance for Goedert given the Brown injury. He will look to get more involved next week against a red-hot New Orleans Saints team.

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley took 22 carries for 95 yards and caught four of five targets for 21 yards during the team's 22-21 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. The 27-year-old had a great performance throughout the contest but had a costly drop on 3rd and 3 that would have sealed the win for the Eagles. Despite that blunder, Barkley was a fantasy stud again without finding the end zone this week. With none of the other backs ever really getting involved and star wide receiver A.J. Brown (hamstring) set to miss a few more games, Barkley is set up to be a top-five option again in Week 3 as the Eagles will take on the New Orleans Saints.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jahan Dotson disappeared in Week 2 with two targets and one catch for six yards on Monday against the Falcons. With A.J. Brown (hamstring) ruled out of this game, Dotson was a popular waiver-wire addition this week and turned in a dud in a seemingly good spot for him. Britain Covey (six catches for 23 yards) was more involved than Dotson in this game, further frustrating those who took a flier on Dotson this week. The Penn State product, who came to the Eagles in an offseason trade with Washington, has just three targets in two games this season and is tough to trust moving forward even if Brown misses more time.

From RotoBaller

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith caught seven of 10 targets for 76 yards and a touchdown during the team's 22-21 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. With A.J. Brown (hamstring) out for this game, and likely a few more, the Eagles' No. 2 receiver played the No. 1 role and made multiple clutch grabs including a seven-yard touchdown in the second quarter to give the Eagles their first lead of the game. Outside of Britain Covey, who had six targets, Smith was the only player to see a high target share and should remain a safe WR2 with top-12 upside as long as Brown misses time. The 25-year-old will face off against the New Orleans Saints in Week 3.

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts saw four targets and hauled in three catches for 20 yards in the team's win over the Eagles on Monday night. The talented tight end was a bit quiet in this one with most of his work coming on underneath routes. Wide receivers Drake London and Darnell Moody were the main threats in the passing game in this one. Pitts should remain a good option in this offense this season and there will likely be better games ahead for him. This was a disappointing week for Pitts' fantasy managers but that is the reality of the tight end landscape in fantasy this season. He should still be counted on as a weekly starter at the position.

Atlanta Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo connected on all three of his field goal attempts and made his lone extra point in the team's win over Philadelphia on Monday night. The trusted kicker was perfect on the night with a long of 39 yards. Koo is one of the best kickers in the league and showed why on Monday night, despite not having any very long opportunities. Continue to fire up Koo at the kicker position in fantasy lineups each week.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts completed 23 of 30 passes for 183 yards, one touchdown, and one interception while adding 13 carries for 85 yards and an additional score during the team's 22-21 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. This was the first game in quite a while that the 26-year-old looked like the rushing quarterback that led the Eagles to the Super Bowl, and even with the costly turnover at the end of the game, he was a top-tier fantasy option in Week 2. He did this against a solid Falcons defense and no top target as A.J. Brown (hamstring) missed this game and will likely miss a few more. Fantasy managers should be encouraged by this performance and have hope that Hurts will be the fantasy force he was drafted to be moving forward. The Eagles signal caller will be a top-five option next week in a showdown against the impressive New Orleans Saints.

From RotoBaller

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud III racked up five targets in Week 2 against the Eagles and caught three passes for 42 yards. McCloud was behind fellow receivers Drake London and Darnell Mooney (seven targets each) in the pecking order in this game but he remained fairly involved in the game plan for the second straight week. He added one rush for three yards as the Falcons looked for ways to get McCloud the football in space. With London and Mooney looking good and each catching a TD pass, it remains to be seen how valuable McCloud will be in this offense this season. But the first two weeks are somewhat encouraging.

From RotoBaller

Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier saw more work in Week 2 in the team's win over Philadelphia. Allgeier garnered 10 touches with nine carries for 53 yards and one catch for 12 yards. It was a solid game for the Falcons' backup running back behind Bijan Robinson and a positive sign moving forward. Allgeier is a good runner and would be a valuable commodity with more opportunities. However, with Robinson dominating the workload it is tough to see too much standalone value for Allgeier in fantasy. But the BYU product still should be rostered in most fantasy leagues due to his potential should Robinson get injured or should he become more of a focal point of the offense.

The Baltimore Ravens signed DL Chris Wormley to the practice squad Monday, Sept. 16. He is a former third-round pick by the team in 2017.

From TheHuddle

Philadelphia Eagles TE Dallas Goedert ended up with three catches for 38 yards on four targets in Week 2 against the Atlanta Falcons Monday, Sept. 16.

Fantasy Spin: Goedert has been limited to seven catches for 69 yards on nine targets through two games with no scores. He has been posting TE2-type numbers so far. He'll look to get on track in Week 3 in New Orleans, but he shouldn't be considered a TE1 outside of deeper leagues right now.

From TheHuddle

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Darnell Mooney delivered a standout performance in the Falcons' win over the Philadelphia Eagles. Mooney recorded 88 receiving yards on three catches, including a 41-yard touchdown strike from quarterback Kirk Cousins. He shared the team lead in targets with Drake London and led the team in receiving yards. Mooney added receptions of 21 and 26 yards on consecutive plays during Atlanta's game-winning drive in the fourth quarter, setting up the decisive touchdown by London. After a disappointing season with the Chicago Bears, where he managed just 414 receiving yards and one touchdown, Mooney is making significant strides with his new team and quarterback. His growing chemistry with Cousins suggests a promising future, and he enters Week 3's matchup against the Chiefs with solid momentum. He is a viable flex option in deeper leagues moving forward.

Philadelphia Eagles RB Saquon Barkley rushed 22 times for 95 yards in Week 2 against the Atlanta Falcons, while adding four receptions for 21 yards on five targets Monday, Sept. 16.

Fantasy Spin: Barkley had a chance to salt the game away, and potentially take a swing pass in for a touchdown, but he had a key drop which led to a loss. Fantasy managers were disappointed about the missed opportunity. We'll see if there is any kind of a hangover from the disappointment, or if Barkley bounced back with a vengeance in Week 3 against the New Orleans Saints.

From TheHuddle

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London delivered a standout performance in the team's narrow victory over the Philadelphia Eagles. London finished the game with 54 yards on six receptions, including the crucial game-winning touchdown in the fourth quarter. Before the Falcons' decisive drive, London had managed only four catches for 42 yards. With the Eagles adding a 28-yard field goal to take a six-point lead, the Falcons faced a critical situation with just 1:39 left on the clock. Atlanta orchestrated a drive from their own 30-yard line to the Eagles' end zone, thanks to quarterback Kirk Cousins completing 4-of-5 passes. London contributed with a five-yard reception to set up a first-and-goal at the seven-yard line, and he secured the game-tying touchdown with a 7-yard catch from Cousins. Although London and Cousins are still building their chemistry, Monday's performance marked a significant improvement from Week 1. London is expected to see ample opportunities in the upcoming Week 3 matchup against the Chiefs, where the Falcons will likely need to stay aggressive in the passing game to keep up with Patrick Mahomes.

From RotoBaller

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson had an impressive performance in the Falcons' narrow win over the Philadelphia Eagles. Robinson was a key contributor, carrying the ball 14 times for 97 yards, averaging an impressive 6.9 yards per carry. He also added 25 yards on four receptions. In the first half, Robinson was particularly effective, rushing for 72 yards on 10 carries against the formidable Eagles front seven. He was then slowed down more by the Eagles defense in the second half. Robinson has seen a big workload so far in 2024, even as backfield mate Tyler Allgeier saw only five fewer carries Monday. Robinson is set to play a significant role in the Week 3 Sunday night game against the defending champion Chiefs.

From RotoBaller

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins led a thrilling comeback to secure a 22-21 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday night. Cousins completed 20 of 29 passes for 241 yards and two touchdowns. While the offense struggled in the first half, Cousins found his rhythm in the third quarter, connecting with receiver Darnell Mooney for a 41-yard touchdown to give the Falcons a 15-10 lead. Although the Eagles briefly retook the lead with a Jalen Hurts touchdown and a late field goal, Cousins orchestrated a decisive drive in the final 1:39. Starting from their own 30-yard line, Cousins completed 4 of 5 passes, culminating in a 7-yard touchdown pass to Drake London to tie the game. Cousins will look to build on this performance when the Falcons face the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 3. With his current form, Cousins remains a matchup-dependent fringe QB1.

Atlanta Falcons WR Ray-Ray McCloud III had three receptions for 42 yards on five targets in Week 2 against the Philadelphia Eagles, while running once for three yards.

From TheHuddle

Atlanta Falcons QB Kirk Cousins ended up completing 20-of-29 passes for 241 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions in Week 2 against the Philadelphia Eagles Monday, Sept. 16, including a game-winning touchdown drive in the two-minute offense.

Fantasy Spin: Cousins was having another mediocre night, but the Eagles were unable to run out the clock, giving Atlanta the chance. The veteran led the team down the field for a comeback that probably never should have happened. It just might be the springboard to help Cousins and the Atlanta pass offense build chemistry and momentum going forward. We'll see the Falcons again in primetime in Week 3 on Sunday night against the Kansas City Chiefs. Cousins is still more of a QB2 in fantasy leagues of 12 or more teams, but he could be on the rise.

Dynasty | Rams Head Coach Sean McVay announced Cooper Kupp will be out for an extended period of time following an ankle injury suffered in Sunday's game. Dynasty Analysis: He also said Kupp is a candidate for injured reserve. This has all the looks of a high ankle sprain for Kupp, who is quickly garnering a reputation for ankle ailments. It seems as if him going on IR may be a foregone conclusion and dynasty managers shouldn't be counting on him for the next month or longer. This is a major short-term blow to Kupp's value as he honestly looked like he could make a run at being the overall WR1 yet again this season. Instead, his dynasty value is going to start sinking again as the veteran seemingly can't stay healthy at this point in his career. Kupp remains a hold in dynasty leagues but the quick "sell" window just shut.
