Kalif Raymond News
Saturday, September 26, 2:12 PM
Chicago Bears wide receiver Kalif Raymond will be tough to trust as more than a deep-league flyer for Monday night's matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles. Surprisingly, Raymond heads into Week 3 leading all Bears pass-catchers with 13 receptions and 124 yards on 14 targets. The veteran has been a solid producer for Chicago, but enters Monday's contest with a lower floor because of the team's change at signal-caller. Raymond was Caleb Williams' (hamstring) preferred option through two weeks, but his role remains unclear with either Tyson Bagent (concussion) or Case Keenum under center. That said, it's notable that the 32-year-old edged out fellow wideout Luther Burden III by four snaps last Sunday, potentially hinting that he's the favored alternative in two-wide sets. It's a situation to watch for now. Raymond is RotoBaller's PPR WR62 for the weekend's slate of action.

Jalen Nailor News
Saturday, September 26, 9:38 AM
Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jalen Nailor has not done enough through two weeks to make himself a comfortable Week 3 option against New Orleans. Nailor has four catches for 36 yards on eight targets, and he played only 60% of the offensive snaps in each of the first two games. He is still listed as a starter opposite Tre Tucker, but the role has not produced much. Brock Bowers is also questionable after missing Friday's practice, and his return would add another target to an offense that already has several mouths to feed. The matchup itself is workable, with New Orleans allowing 204 passing yards per game through two weeks. Nailor sits at WR71 in RotoBaller's latest Week 3 rankings, which fits how difficult he is to trust right now. Unless the Raiders suddenly lean on him more heavily, Nailor belongs on fantasy benches in most leagues this week.
