Aaron Rodgers A Low-End QB2 Against Cleveland

Friday, October 30, 5:39 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers disappointed for fantasy purposes last week but will look to get back on track in a divisional bout with the Cleveland Browns in Week 8. While the Browns are surrendering the seventh-fewest fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks, Rodgers managed 299 passing yards and three touchdowns despite throwing two interceptions against Cleveland back in Week 4. This is a pivotal matchup with both AFC North teams sitting at 5-2 heading into Sunday, so Rodgers should be locked in for what projects to be a competitive game. That said, plenty of other fantasy options have more favorable matchups at the position. Fantasy managers can turn to Rodgers in a pinch, but he should be viewed as a low-end QB2 with some streaming appeal.

Patrick Mahomes Says He'll Undergo Further Elbow Testing

Sunday, November 8, 12:28 PM

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (elbow) said he'll undergo further testing on his right elbow after Sunday's 35-12 win over the New York Jets, according to Charles Goldman. Mahomes said he wasn't throwing the way he wanted to coming out of halftime. He still completed 12 of 16 passes for 122 yards in the second half, and Kansas City scored touchdowns on its first two drives after the break. Mahomes hurt his throwing elbow on David Bailey's strip-sack late in the second quarter. He returned on the Chiefs' next possession and hit Travis Kelce for 12 yards on his first play back. Mahomes finished 23 of 31 for 242 yards and two touchdowns. The Chiefs visit the Atlanta Falcons in Week 10.
