Carson Wentz News
Wednesday, September 16, 8:07 AM
ESPN's Dan Graziano believes that Minnesota Vikings quarterback Carson Wentz is likely to start in Week 2 against the division-rival Chicago Bears if Kyler Murray (concussion) is not cleared in time. Former first-rounder J.J. McCarthy is the one who was competing with Murray for the starting job in training camp, but it is more about the Vikings believing that Wentz's veteran experience will put them in a better position with limited preparation time. Graziano foresees a scenario where Wentz starts this week with McCarthy as the backup, assuming Murray does not clear the league's concussion protocol before Sunday. If Wentz makes the start, he is set up for success. The 33-year-old veteran led the Vikings to a come-from-behind victory over the division-rival Green Bay Packers in Week 1, throwing for 133 yards and three touchdowns, and the Bears just allowed 361 passing yards to Panthers QB Bryce Young. Murray should not be out long-term, but in deep two-QB fantasy leagues, Wentz could be an attractive streamer in Week 2.

Terry McLaurin News
Sunday, September 13, 4:29 PM
Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin was barely a factor during Sunday's season opener against the Philadelphia Eagles. Scary Terry was not scary at all to the Eagles' defense in this one. The 31-year-old hauled in two of his four targets for 14 yards in the two-point loss. McLaurin was projected to be a WR2 coming into this game, and he barely got involved. It took a while for the Commanders' offense to get going in this one. McLaurin finishing fourth on the team in receiving yards is not acceptable to fantasy managers. McLaurin has the talent and is expected to bounce back in a favorable matchup against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 2.
