Spencer Ware gets three touches in Chiefs’ win.

Ware had one carry for one yard and two receptions (on three targets) for 29 yards against the Niners. The former starter is yet another great weapon for Kansas City’s offense and could probably be more involved moving forward, but his role isn’t big enough to be a recommended fantasy option at the moment.

Zach Line scores in win over the Falcons.

Line caught two passes for six yards, including a one-yard touchdown in a back-and-forth fourth quarter. New Orleans’ fullback can be ignored for fantasy purposes.

Tyreek Hill totals 56 yards in Week 3.

Hill caught two passes for 51 yards and had two carries for five yards against the Niners. His highlight was a great leaping 42-yard reception where he skied and easily came down with the deep pass. Hill was also targeted on a deep ball to the end zone, but Niners cornerback Richard Sherman deflected the pass away from a waiting Hill at the last second. Next week, Hill faces a Broncos team he’s had a lot of success against in the past, and he remains an excellent option in fantasy lineups.

Mark Andrews catches two passes in Week 3.

Andrews gained 59 yards on his two receptions, with his catches going for 30 and 29 yards. The rookie tight end is playing well to start his NFL career, but Baltimore’s tight end group is too crowded to trust him in fantasy lineups.

Brandin Cooks goes over 150 yards against the Cardinals.

Against Arizona’s zone defense, Patrick Peterson did not follow Cooks all around the formation—and the speedy receiver took advantage. Cooks caught seven-of-nine targets for 159 yards, including a long of 57 yards, in the Week 2 win. Cooks is now up to 12 receptions for 246 yards through two games, as he and Jared Goff have immediately shown a great connection. Next week against the Chargers is a tough matchup, but Cooks is too good to be on benches.

Cameron Meredith scores in win over the Falcons.

Meredith—who hadn’t caught a pass since the 2016 season with Chicago—found the end zone on an 11-yard reception over the middle in the third quarter. It’s great to see the 26-year-old come all the way back after such a serious leg injury, but his fantasy value looks too volatile to trust in a spread-the-wealth offense. We’ll see if he can string something together against the Giants next Sunday.

Sammy Watkins totals 75 yards and a touchdown in Chiefs’ win.

Watkins was again very involved in Kansas City’s offense, catching five-of-eight targets for 55 yards and a touchdown along with two carries for 20 yards. Watkins again showed his elite ability with the ball in his hands on both handoffs and yards-after-catch plays, and his 12-yard touchdown was on a quick slant where he shed a couple of tackles on his way to the end zone. Next week against the Broncos is a tough matchup, but the talented Watkins is still at least a FLEX option for the game.
