Ja'Marr Chase News
Thursday, October 29, 3:56 PM
Cincinnati Bengals star wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase (ankle) was listed as a full participant in practice on Thursday after he was held out on Wednesday, mainly for rest purposes, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. There were concerns about Chase's Week 8 status when he did not see the field at all on Wednesday, but his ankle injury is not a major concern, and he is fully expected to play this Sunday at home against the Tennessee Titans. The 26-year-old former fifth overall pick in the 2021 NFL draft out of LSU has not lived up to being the first receiver off the board in most fantasy drafts this year, with 32 receptions for 351 yards in six games played, but he has made up for some of it by scoring five times. Chase is currently averaging a career-low 58.5 receiving yards per game, but that could change quickly with a big performance against the Titans in Week 8. As long as Chase is active and ready to go on Sunday, he will remain a must-start WR1 in traditional fantasy leagues. He will be looking to find paydirt for the third straight game and for the sixth time this year.

Nico Collins News
Sunday, October 25, 12:58 PM
Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins remains the team's most established receiving threat despite turning in his worst performance of the season during Sunday's 27-21 overtime loss to the New York Giants, catching just two of five targets for six yards without a touchdown. He finished with only 2.6 PPR fantasy points, with both receptions coming on the same third-quarter possession for gains of two and four yards. The disastrous showing followed four consecutive appearances with at least 56 receiving yards, including a 118-yard, two-touchdown performance against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 4. Houston managed just 153 passing yards despite playing into overtime, with C.J. Stroud throwing touchdowns to Marvin Harrison Jr. and Xavier Hutchinson. Tank Dell also made his return, contributing a 43-yard reception on his lone target. Sunday's lack of production was especially frustrating given Collins' recent success. The Texans have a Week 8 bye before visiting the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 9.
