Fantasy Watch

Start 'em:

  1. Jameson Williams (WR, Lions): Williams is on fire this season, racking up 363 yards and 3 TDs on 14 receptions. He’s averaging a staggering 25.9 yards per catch, making him a must-start as the Lions face the Cowboys’ secondary next week.

  2. Travis Etienne Jr. (RB, Jaguars): With 310 rushing yards and 8 touchdowns, Etienne is a fantasy beast. His dual-threat capability was on display last game with 80 rushing yards and 2 TDs, and he faces the Bills' defense next, which has been vulnerable to the run.

  3. Terry McLaurin (WR, Commanders): McLaurin has been on a roll with 332 yards and 2 touchdowns on 15 receptions. With QB Jayden Daniels spreading the ball effectively, McLaurin's big-play potential makes him a top fantasy start.

Sit 'em:

  1. Dion Bullocks (QB, 49ers): Bullocks has struggled mightily, completing only 44.6% of his passes with 5 interceptions. After a rough 88-yard outing against the Jaguars, it’s best to keep him on the bench until he shows improvement.

  2. Christian McCaffrey (RB, 49ers): McCaffrey's numbers have been disappointing, totaling just 125 yards on 42 carries (3.0 YPC) and 1 TD this season. Facing a Falcons defense that limits rushing lanes, he's a risky fantasy start.

  3. Joe Milton III (QB, Buccaneers): Despite a 72.3% completion rate, Milton is plagued by turnovers, tossing 4 interceptions. His low yardage average (6.3 YPA) and lack of scoring potential make him a fantasy liability for the upcoming matchup against the Patriots.
