Washington Commanders wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. was heavily involved in the offense for the second straight week in his team's 27-18 loss to the Green Bay Packers on Thursday night. Samuel Sr. was targeted eight times, hauling in seven catches for 44 yards and a touchdown. It was not an efficient night for Washington overall, and Samuel Sr. was no different, averaging just 6.3 yards per reception. Still, it's an encouraging sign for fantasy managers that Samuel Sr. has been targeted 18 times and logged 15 total touches through Washington's first two games. Early on, the 29-year-old profiles as a high-end flex option going into a much easier Week 3 matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings (ankle) injured his ankle in the Week 2 win over the New Orleans Saints on Sunday and will be evaluated day-to-day through this week, according to David Lombardi of The Athletic. It's been one thing after another for Jennings health-wise since offseason workouts, when he suffered a calf injury. The 28-year-old missed most of training camp and all of the preseason after aggravating his calf issue before injuring his shoulder in the season-opening win over the Seattle Seahawks. The good news is that he looked healthy and operated as the WR1 on Sunday against the Saints, catching five of 10 targets for 89 yards and his first touchdown of 2025. Jennings will at least be in play as a WR4/flex if he's active in Week 3 against the division-rival Cardinals, but if he's out or limited, Ricky Pearsall would be the top target for quarterback Mac Jones.
Still trying to decide between Samuel Sr. and Jennings? Check on the latest news to make sure both players are active and healthy. Our PPR projections show that Deebo Samuel Sr. is projected to score 16.6 points this week while Jauan Jennings is projected to score 22.1 points.
