Amon-Ra St. Brown Posts Another Monster Game in Week 2

Friday, September 18, 5:25 AM

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown was one of the lone bright spots in his team's 41-31 Week 2 loss to the Buffalo Bills, recording nine catches for 142 yards and two touchdowns on 13 targets. St. Brown has gotten off to a fantastic start to the season, hauling in 19 receptions for 209 yards and four touchdowns on 27 targets across Detroit's first two games. The 26-year-old has been a highly reliable wide receiver for fantasy managers for a number of years now, posting three consecutive seasons with at least 115 catches, 1,250 receiving yards, and 10 touchdowns coming into 2026. Still, he could be poised for a career season from a production perspective if the Lions' defense continues to struggle as mightily as it has through the first two weeks. Heading into Detroit's Week 3 matchup against the New York Jets, St. Brown profiles as a high-end fantasy WR1.

Zay Flowers Downgraded to Out for Week 2

Saturday, September 19, 2:15 PM

The Baltimore Ravens X account posted that wideout Zay Flowers (hamstring) has been downgraded to out for their Week 2 matchup against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday. The 26-year-old had five receptions for 150 yards and one touchdown on six targets in the first half of Week 1. Flowers did not play in the second half due to reaggravating a hamstring injury that first appeared in training camp. The injury forced Flowers to miss two practices and limited his participation during Friday's session. The team originally listed him as doubtful before declaring him out. Without Flowers and third-round rookie Ja'Kobi Lane, the team is left with Mark Andrews, Rashod Bateman, and fourth-round rookie Elijah Sarratt to operate as the primary pass-catchers. Flowers' limited participation on Friday leaves room for optimism about his availability for Week 3, as we will get more information about his health early next week.
