Jalen Coker Should Continue Breakout Campaign in Week 3

Friday, September 25, 2:46 PM

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Jalen Coker (ankle) has been a revelation so far in 2026. He should continue his solid campaign in Week 3 against the Cleveland Browns. Coker is the WR6 on the season with 204 receiving yards and a pair of touchdowns. He has been one of quarterback Bryce Young's most trusted targets. Given his solid role in an offense that seems to be taking a step forward, Coker should be able to feast against a Browns defense that is middle-of-the-road with a 61.8 PFF pass coverage score. As such, Coker should see plenty of volume and potential scoring opportunities this week. It is worth noting that Coker has been nursing an ankle injury since the first quarter of Carolina's Week 1 matchup with the Bears. Given that the injury did not prevent him from finishing that game or playing in Week 2, it does not seem to be much cause for concern. He is currently expected to play, so look for Coker to hang around the WR2 realm once again in Week 3.

RJ Harvey Faces Hot Rams Run Defense in Week 3

Friday, September 25, 9:51 PM

Denver Broncos running back RJ Harvey has recovered from a hamstring injury that left him limited to begin the week of practice leading into Week 3 against the Los Angeles Rams. Harvey and Broncos lead running back, J.K. Dobbins, each returned to full practice on Thursday and Friday after being listed as limited participants on Wednesday. As a result, he has not been provided an injury designation entering this weekend's non-conference matchup. Harvey has carried the ball just three times this season but has averaged six yards per carry, while he has added four receptions for 23 yards. He hasn't been much of a factor offensively and is RotoBaller's 45th-ranked running back. Harvey is projected to score nine fantasy points against the Broncos' NFC foe. The Rams' defense did a nice job against New York Giants running backs last week, limiting starter Cam Skattebo to just 36 yards rushing on 12 carries and four receptions for 19 yards.
