Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs took full advantage of an increased role in Week 7, leading his team to a thrilling 31-29 victory over the Minnesota Vikings. With David Montgomery (knee) missing snaps due to a knee injury, Gibbs stepped up in a big way, rushing 15 times for 116 yards and two touchdowns while adding four receptions for 44 yards. Gibbs' first score came on a 45-yard run early in the second quarter, breaking free off the right side. He added a second touchdown just before halftime, an eight-yard run that helped the Lions build their lead. Gibbs finished with an impressive 7.7 yards per carry and one of the top overall fantasy performances in Week 7, showcasing his explosiveness and versatility. The Lions will look to keep momentum at home, and Gibbs remains a must-start against the Tennessee Titans in Week 8.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. finally got back on track with a 22-yard touchdown catch in the Week 8 victory over the Miami Dolphins. Harrison Jr. hauled in six catches for 111 yards and a touchdown, which is on par for a WR1-type outing. The Cardinals showed a commitment to scheming up looks for Harrison Jr. to get the ball despite playing against one of the top passing defenses in the NFL. If they continue that commitment, fantasy managers should once again feel confident in starting Harrison Jr. He appears to be valued as a high-end WR2 when the Cardinals host the Chicago Bears in Week 9.
