CeeDee Lamb Hauls In Five Passes, Scores Touchdown In Loss

Sunday, September 13, 8:18 PM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb was his team's leading target earner and receiver, catching five of his eight targets for 44 yards and one touchdown in his team's loss to the New York Giants in Week 1. Dallas' passing game was mostly held in check, with just 175 total passing yards to go around between all its receivers. Lamb out-targeted and out-gained fellow wideout George Pickens, who didn't even muster 30 receiving yards. It would appear that he's regained his WR1 role, at least for now, but games with more overall production through the air should be a bit more revealing to that end. Lamb struggled after a high-ankle sprain caused him to miss time early in 2025, but he appears to be fully healthy in his seventh NFL season. Expect plenty of involvement for the veteran in Week 2 against a Washington Commanders defense with a porous secondary. Lamb tends to perform very well against them.

Christian Watson Ascending Into a Fantasy Superstar

Wednesday, September 16, 9:14 PM

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson had a relatively slow start to his career, but he has recently blossomed into the fantasy superstar that managers expected when he was selected in the second round of the 2022 NFL Draft. Watson finished the 2025 season on a strong note, and he picked up right where he left off with a dominant Week 1 performance that included six catches, 147 yards, and two touchdowns. Watson is a playmaker who has shown that he can get open downfield, and his strong rapport with Jordan Love allows him to catch passes in stride and make big plays. Matthew Golden is also taking on a larger role offensively, but that should have no impact on Watson's outlook. The 27-year-old is a high-end WR2 with WR1 upside this season. He could feast in a favorable Week 2 matchup against the New York Jets.
