Ja'Marr Chase News
Friday, September 25, 12:19 PM
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase will face the Pittsburgh Steelers on the road in Week 3. Chase shook off a lackluster Week 1 performance with a strong stat line against the Houston Texans last week. The superstar wideout caught seven passes for 75 yards and two touchdowns in the 20-6 win in Week 2. Despite putting up WR1 numbers last game, Chase still has not reached 100 receiving yards this season. Chase will likely change that on Sunday against the Steelers. The Pittsburgh defense has been stingy against the pass this season, allowing the sixth-fewest passing yards, but Chase is no ordinary receiver. Chase is arguably the best wide receiver in football with a quarterback that isn't afraid to throw him the ball in any situation. That is a dangerous combination for opposing defenses to face because they can break off a big play at any moment. Chase is ranked WR3 in our RotoBaller Week 3 PPR rankings, making him a top-tier WR1 heading into the weekend. Fantasy managers should never question having him in their starting lineups for as long as he's healthy.

Malik Nabers News
Saturday, September 26, 3:15 AM
New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers enters Week 3 with plenty of question marks after a poor showing against the Los Angeles Rams. Through two weeks, Nabers has caught just seven of 13 targets for 70 yards, averaging just over five half-PPR fantasy points per game. With starting quarterback Jaxson Dart (knee) out for the season after undergoing knee surgery, Jameis Winston is set to take over as the starter. In Matt Nagy's offense, the Giants could lean more on the running game and limit Winston's passing volume, which would hurt Nabers immensely. Despite a great matchup against the Titans, who have allowed the seventh-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season, heavy rain and wind are expected in East Rutherford on Sunday. With a potentially run-heavy script and Nabers' early-season struggles, he is a risky start for Week 3.
