Puka Nacua Doubtful Headed Into Week 3 vs. Broncos

Saturday, September 26, 6:42 AM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua is considered doubtful prior to Week 3's contest against the Broncos according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Nacua has a hip injury that kept him out Week 2 against the Giants as well. Rams coach Sean McVay is hopeful for a Week 4 return for the talented wide receiver. Nakua was targeted nine times in Week 1's Australia game against the 49ers. He recorded five catches for 74 receiving yards. But his hip injury is a significant concern as he is set to miss his second straight week. He is one of the most talented wide receivers in the NFL but needs to return to full health before he can re-establish his connection with quarterback Matthew Stafford. Davante Adams filled in in a big way for Nacua last week and tight end Terrance Ferguson had a nice game as well.

Tetairoa McMillan a WR2 in Week 3

Friday, September 25, 2:44 PM

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan should be a solid WR2 in Week 3 against the Cleveland Browns. McMillan has gotten off to a bit of a slow start this season as he enters this week as the WR22. However, McMillan is fresh off a 10-target, 101-yard game in Week 2. The main thing missing for McMillan is touchdowns. At the rate quarterback Bryce Young is throwing touchdowns, it is only a matter of time before McMillan finds the end zone. The Browns have a solid secondary, but there is no one you should be afraid of for fantasy. This team is also allowing 34.65 fantasy points per game to opposing wide receivers through two weeks. McMillan is tied with fellow wideout Jalen Coker (ankle) for the team lead in targets through two games at 18. The volume will be there in Week 3. If he can find the end zone, McMillan could sneak into high-end WR2 territory.
