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.

Khalil Shakir Could Benefit From Buffalo's Injuries

Saturday, September 26, 5:40 AM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir caught three of six targets for 38 yards against Detroit after posting four catches for 50 yards on six targets in the opener. The production has been modest, but 12 targets through two games have kept him involved in a passing attack with plenty of mouths to feed. His Week 3 outlook gets more interesting because DJ Moore and Keon Coleman are both questionable and will be game-time decisions. If either is unavailable, Shakir should have a cleaner path to targets against Los Angeles. Dalton Kincaid has commanded plenty of work early, so Shakir still does not have a huge ceiling without an injury ahead of him. RotoBaller ranks him as the WR44 for Week 3. He is a PPR flex option whose appeal would rise if Buffalo is missing one of its outside receivers.
