CeeDee Lamb A Must-Start WR For Week 2

Saturday, September 19, 3:47 AM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb salvaged what would have otherwise been a disappointing performance in Week 1 with a receiving touchdown. He finished with 15.4 PPR fantasy points. The Cowboys offense looked uncharacteristically bland in the loss to the New York Giants, but could be on the verge of getting back on track against another divisional rival, the Washington Commanders, in Week 2. Dallas was one of the best passing offenses in the NFL last season, and unless NFL defenses have completely solved Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer's schemes, the Commanders defense presents a good opportunity for an explosive game. They were fifth-worst in the NFL in 2025 at slowing down opposing passers. Lamb played well against them in 2025, logging 31.6 PPR fantasy points across two contests by catching 10 of his 18 targets for 156 yards and a touchdown. He's a must-start wideout in all leagues in Week 2, though it looks like he may not pay off at his first-round ADP in fantasy football.

Michael Pittman Jr. News

Michael Pittman Jr. Ruled Out for Week 2

Saturday, September 19, 9:26 AM

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's game at New England, according to Ian Rapoport. Pittman opened the week limited Wednesday, then did not practice Thursday or Friday before initially being listed as questionable. He caught all three of his targets for 58 yards in Pittsburgh's 20-13 win over Atlanta and ran a route on 92.9% of the team's dropbacks. DK Metcalf remains the clear top option, but Pittman's absence leaves more work behind him. Roman Wilson played 37 offensive snaps in the opener, compared with just three for rookie Germie Bernard. Both could see their roles grow Sunday with Pittman unavailable.
