Jaylen Waddle Riding Wave of Momentum

Friday, September 25, 10:15 PM

Denver Broncos wide receiver Jaylen Waddle got off to a slow start with his new team, but bounced back in a big way in Week 2. Waddle finished the Broncos' win over the Jacksonville Jaguars with 10 receptions for 136 yards, powering the Denver passing game to a resurgent effort. This week, Waddle is RotoBaller's 14th-ranked wide receiver and is projected to score 12 fantasy points as the Broncos face the Los Angeles Rams in a non-conference battle. The Rams allowed three different San Francisco 49ers wide receivers to find the end zone in Week 1 before Los Angeles shut down Jameis Winston en route to their first win of the season in Week 2.

Adonai Mitchell Officially Questionable to Play in Week 3

Friday, September 25, 12:58 PM

New York Jets wide receiver Adonai Mitchell (finger) was limited in practice on Friday and is officially questionable to play in his team's Week 3 matchup against the Detroit Lions. The 23-year-old was a midweek addition to the injury report with a finger issue. Mitchell has gotten off to a solid start to the 2026 season, recording nine catches for 123 yards on 15 targets. If he's able to play in Week 3, he profiles as an under-the-radar flex option for fantasy managers in a favorable matchup against the banged-up Lions secondary. If Mitchell is ruled out, Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson and tight end Kenyon Sadiq could dominate the team's target share in Week 3.
