C.J. Stroud News
Tuesday, September 15, 10:02 AM
After going largely undrafted in most single-quarterback leagues, Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud has worked his way back into the streaming conversation after a solid outing in a Week 1 loss to the Bills. The Texans face the Bengals in Week 2, but after being one of the top defenses to target in 2025, Cincinnati held Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield to 7.6 fantasy points in Week 1, forcing three turnovers. After throwing four interceptions of his own in a season-ending playoff loss to the Patriots, Stroud protected the ball better in Sunday's season opener but still lost two fumbles, including one deep in Bills territory on a potential game-winning drive. Even with the two turnovers, Stroud finished the week as the QB15 and is RotoBaller's QB19 for Week 2.

Caleb Williams News
Sunday, September 13, 8:46 PM
Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams completed 21 of his 29 pass attempts for 269 passing yards, two passing touchdowns, and zero interceptions during Sunday's Week 1 win over the Carolina Panthers. He also registered 10 rushing attempts, 65 rushing yards, and two rushing touchdowns. Williams played turnover-free football in the 59-37 win, and he only took two sacks. All in all, it was a remarkable showing from the former No. 1 pick, who could be a sleeper candidate to finish as the overall QB1 in fantasy football this season. He did a great job spreading the ball around to four different wide receivers and tight end Cole Kmet, and things will only get easier for him once he's able to reignite his rapport with tight end Colston Loveland. Williams will get a very tough test next week in the form of the Minnesota Vikings, who are led by one of the best defensive coordinators of this decade, Brian Flores. Still, Williams' four-touchdown explosion on Sunday showed that he's ready for any challenge in his way. He remains firmly entrenched in the QB1 tier for Week 2.
