Chris Hogan scores twice versus Jacksonville.

Hogan had a very difficult matchup with the Jags, but he came through with a couple of second-half touchdowns as New England attempted to stage a comeback. Hogan caught three passes for 42 yards and two touchdowns overall in the Week 2 loss. The first score was on a short post in the end zone for seven yards; and the second was a 29-yarder where Hogan got open in the middle of the field after a play-action and fake bubble screen, and he ran across to the other sideline for six. Hogan is a strong option in Week 3 fantasy lineups.

Marlon Mack gets 11 touches in 2018 debut.

Mack missed Week 1 because of a hamstring injury, but he worked his way back for the Week 2 win against the Redskins, carrying ten times for 34 yards while adding one reception for two yards. Jordan Wilkins also received ten carries, gaining 61 yards on them; and Nyheim Hines scored on a carry inside the ten-yard line. Mack might be able to work his way into a clear lead role in the committee moving forward, but he’s more of a weak FLEX option for now.

Dede Westbrook helps run the Jaguars to victory over the Patriots.

Westbrook caught four passes for 83 yards, including an exciting 61-yard catch and run in the fourth quarter to give Jacksonville a 31-13 lead. He also rushed once for negative-six yards. Westbrook has shown flashes of what made him a Heisman finalist at Oklahoma, and he is worth considering in all leagues with Blake Bortles looking as good as he ever has. We’ll see if Westbrook can get loose against the Titans in Week 3.

Jordan Wilkins gets 12 touches in Week 2.

Marlon Mack returned after missing one game because of a hamstring injury, but the rookie Wilkins still received the most work in Indy’s backfield, carrying ten times for 61 yards while adding two receptions for three yards. Wilkins broke a run of 18 yards in the win against the Redskins, and he outperformed Mack (ten carries, 34 yards). However, Nyheim Hines scored on a carry deep in the red zone, and this is a full-blown committee backfield. Also, Mack might get more touches in Week 3, so Wilkins is difficult to trust as a FLEX option.

Phillip Dorsett catches five passes against the Jaguars.

Dorsett was targeted seven times in the Week 2 loss, gaining 44 yards on his five receptions. He was again a reliable target for Tom Brady, showing good hands and route running to make himself available. Dorsett could’ve had a big game if not for a missed deep ball by Brady, as Dorsett was open down the right sideline after a good release at the line of scrimmage. Dorsett has FLEX appeal for Week 3 against the Lions.

Andrew Luck throws two touchdowns, two interceptions in Colts’ win.

Luck went 21/31 for 179 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions along with four carries four two rushing yards in the Week 2 victory. The first touchdown was to Eric Ebron on a throw to the end zone (the second straight week they’ve connected), and the second score was to a wide-open T.Y. Hilton by the goal line. Luck faces an Eagles team that was just roasted by Ryan Fitzpatrick, but the game is in Philadelphia, where the Eagles should be tougher. He’s in the QB1 mix for Week 3.

Brandon Wilds handles three touches in Jaguars debut.

Wilds rushed three times for four yards in a 31-20 win over the Patriots. The South Carolina product can be ignored for fantasy purposes and is likely to revert to the practice squad when Leonard Fournette (hamstring) returns.
