Russell Wilson Set for Extended Run as Giants QB1 After Monster Week 2 Performance?

Tuesday, September 16, 11:52 AM

New York Giants quarterback Russell Wilson was one of the stars of Week 2, completing 30 of 41 pass attempts for 450 yards, three touchdowns, and one interception. Fans and analysts alike were calling for Wilson to be replaced by Giants rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart after a lackluster Week 1 performance, but Wilson may have solidified his QB1 status for at least the next few games with his Week 2 showing. The 36-year-old will have a difficult matchup in Week 3 against the Kansas City Chiefs, but there should be more hope for the Giants' offense in general after it dropped 37 points on the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday. Where available, Wilson should be added in all two-quarterback fantasy league formats.

Mason Taylor Can't Cash in on Jets' TE1 Role

Tuesday, September 16, 11:54 AM

As expected, New York Jets tight end Mason Taylor is far and away the team's TE1, although it hasn't amounted to much on the stat sheet. After leading teammates Jeremy Ruckert and Andrew Beck in snaps by a wide margin in their loss to the Steelers in Week 1, the same was true in their outing with the Buffalo Bills. Ruckert (17) again played half as much as Taylor (34), with Beck mixing in minimally (one). However, Taylor and Ruckert mimicked each other's production with a one-catch, five-yard line - the only difference being that the former accrued one more target (two) and the latter a touchdown. The favorable bet seems to be that the rookie continues to lead this room in playing time. He'll have a chance to carve out a role in the passing game, considering the Jets' skill players don't offer much behind wide receiver Garrett Wilson and running back Breece Hall. Still, fantasy managers can't take the LSU product seriously for starting purposes until he averages more than one catch per appearance. He'll face the hosting Tampa Bay Buccaneers this Sunday.
