Hollywood Brown's Fantasy Stock Takes a Hit

Thursday, September 17, 11:12 AM

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Hollywood Brown was active for the season opener and never got on the field. DeVonta Smith played 52 offensive snaps, Dontayvion Wicks 50, rookie Makai Lemon 35, and Darius Cooper eight. Brown played zero. Nick Sirianni said afterward that Philadelphia wants to get him involved and that the receiver rotation simply never got there in Week 1. Brown said he was surprised and hadn't been told beforehand that he wouldn't play. That makes this more than an empty box score. Whatever the exact plan was, four Eagles wide receivers saw the field before Brown did. Sirianni's comments leave room for that to change quickly, but there is no way around what Week 1 showed. Brown needs snaps before targets can even become part of the fantasy discussion. For now, going from a potential complementary piece to no offensive role at all is a major hit to his stock.

Isaiah Williams Handling a Significantly Larger Role

Tuesday, September 29, 10:03 PM

New York Jets wide receiver Isaiah Williams has seen his role grow dramatically on offense in recent weeks. After opening the season lower on the depth chart, Williams has suddenly emerged as the No. 2 wide receiver behind Garrett Wilson as the team continues to deal with injuries on the offensive side of the ball. Omar Cooper (ankle) is on injured reserve, and Adonai Mitchell (finger) could miss another game in Week 4, leaving Williams in a very favorable role from a fantasy football perspective. There's data to back up this bigger role, too, as Williams has now played 82% and 89% of the snaps in his last two games, respectively. The increased playing time has resulted in a modest seven catches for 55 yards over the last two weeks combined, which isn't extraordinary but could be enough to put him on the fantasy radar as a low-end streamer for Week 4.
