Brock Purdy News
Friday, September 18, 8:42 PM
San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy is projected for a top-12 finish in Week 2. Purdy will be facing the Miami Dolphins, who allowed Raiders quarterback Kirk Cousins a crisp 21-for-30 day and three touchdowns in Week 1. Purdy himself was the overall QB10 in fantasy football last week, after catching an intimidating Rams defense flat-footed in Melbourne. The so-called Mr. Irrelevant completed 73.5% of his passes for 205 yards and three touchdowns in his season opener. Purdy showed immediate chemistry with free agent acquisition Mike Evans, who tied Deebo Samuel Sr. with six catches and seven targets. Rookie De'Zhaun Stribling (ankle) is out with an ankle injury, and tight end George Kittle (Achilles) will likely still be on a pitch count, but Purdy still has a solid supporting cast in Evans, Samuel, Demarcus Robinson, and Christian McCaffrey. In a favorable home matchup, Purdy should fulfill low-end QB1 expectations and can be started with confidence.

Jaxson Dart News
Saturday, September 19, 6:40 PM
New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart hopes to build on his stellar Week 1 performance against the Los Angeles Rams. Dart completed 23 of 29 passes for 230 yards and three touchdowns, and added 54 yards on 11 carries in the 28-20 victory over the Dallas Cowboys. Through 13 career starts, Dart has averaged 20.7 fantasy points per game and looked even more polished as a passer in Week 1. Under new offensive coordinator Matt Nagy and with a strong receiving core featuring Malik Nabers and Isaiah Likely, Dart should remain a prolific fantasy option. He faces a Rams defense that allowed the 14th-fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks in 2025 but struggled to contain Brock Purdy and the 49ers in Melbourne, Australia. Despite the Rams' talented defense, Dart's supporting cast and rushing floor make him a must-start QB1 in Week 2 as he looks to keep his hot streak going.
