Rain Could Limit Darnell Mooney's Volume Against Titans

Saturday, September 26, 3:16 AM

New York Giants wide receiver Darnell Mooney may struggle to find more volume in Week 3 against the Tennessee Titans. Through two games, Mooney has been efficient, hauling in four of five targets for 75 yards and averaging just 4.8 half-PPR fantasy points per game. With starting quarterback Jaxson Dart (knee) set to miss the remainder of the season, Jameis Winston is set to take over the offense. Under Matt Nagy, the Giants could become even more run-heavy as they look to limit Winston's turnovers. The forecast in East Rutherford calls for heavy rain and wind at kickoff, which should lead to a low-scoring, run-heavy script for both the Titans and the Giants. Despite his strong efficiency to start the season, Mooney should remain out of starting lineups in Week 3.

Chris Bell Set Up for an Increased Role in Week 3

Saturday, September 26, 4:40 AM

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Chris Bell is in position to pick up more work in his team's home opener this week against the Chiefs. His fellow rookie Caleb Douglas (ankle) is out for this matchup, leaving Bell more opportunities to step up across the field from veteran Malik Washington. Bell was dealing with soreness and fluid buildup in his surgically repaired left knee earlier this week, but does not have an injury designation and should be good to go against the Chiefs. Kansas City has allowed the third-fewest fantasy points to WRs this year, which sets Bell up in a tough spot even if he does take on a larger workload. He didn't have a catch last week after catching one of two targets against the Raiders for 25 yards. The Dolphins' passing game has struggled early in the year, making Bell tough to trust even in a bigger role. He does have boom-or-bust potential, but he is only RotoBaller's WR78 this week, making him best left on the bench or the waiver wire for Week 3 in most leagues.
