After Another Down Week, Can Alvin Kamara Still Be Trusted as a Fantasy Starter?

Wednesday, October 22, 1:11 AM

New Orleans running back Alvin Kamara rushed 11 times for 28 yards and caught all three of his targets for just one yard in the Week 7 loss to the Bears. This marks his fifth straight game under 100 total yards, and he has not found the end zone since Week 1. Looking ahead to Week 8, Kamara faces a Buccaneers defense that just allowed Jahmyr Gibbs to explode for 218 total yards and two touchdowns on Monday night. Over 14 career games against Tampa Bay, Kamara has totalled 626 rushing yards, 565 receiving yards, and 11 total touchdowns. Even with a low 3.6 yards per carry, his volume and history against the Buccaneers keep him in the low-end RB2 conversation for Week 8.

Josh Reynolds Stepping Into WR1 Role Vs. Carolina

Friday, October 17, 9:01 PM

New York Jets wide receiver Josh Reynolds will get a chance to operate as the team's WR1 in this weekend's home matchup with the Carolina Panthers. Reynolds has been off the fantasy radar all season in New York's low-volume passing attack. However, he'll have an opportunity to shine this Sunday with teammate Garrett Wilson (knee) battling a hyperextended knee. While Wilson is officially listed as doubtful, it's expected that he will be unavailable in Week 7, leaving Reynolds and tight end Mason Taylor as the Jets' primary pass catchers outside of running back Breece Hall. Even with the suspected bump in usage, the 30-year-old remains a lower-end option for fantasy, landing as RotoBaller's PPR WR47 for his outing with Carolina.
