Houston Texans wide receiver Xavier Hutchinson is once again lined up for an expanded role in Week 2, since Christian Kirk (hamstring) will miss a second straight game when the Texans host the Buccaneers on Monday Night Football. Among the team's wide receivers, Hutchinson ranked second in snaps played and in receiving yards in Week 1, totaling 30 yards on two catches while playing 68% of snaps. He also got a rushing opportunity and added five rushing yards. The Texans' offense couldn't get rolling in Week 1 against the Rams, but they'll work for better results this week against the Bucs. Hutchinson is invovled enough that he could have upside if C.J. Stroud can turn things around going forward. He's a long-shot play to avoid this week, though, since he's ranked as the WR90 in the RotoBaller rankings.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Jaylin Lane could play a bigger role in Week 3 against the Raiders with Noah Brown (groin) out for the game. Lane has already played a decent amount on offense through two weeks, and he ran the fourth-most routes on the team in their Week 2 loss. The rookie caught only one of three targets for yards against a stingy Packers defense. Lane generated buzz during training camp for his speed and playmaking ability with the ball in his hands, and now he has a bigger opportunity. It will be interesting to see how offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury handles the key absences on offense, as both Lane and Deebo Samuel Sr. are better suited for the slot. Lane will be an interesting player to watch, but he isn't a viable fantasy option for Week 3.
