Ryan Tannehill, Dolphins come alive in the fourth quarter to beat the Titans, 27-20.

Tannehill went 20/28 for 230 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions. The highlight of the game was a perfectly thrown bomb to Kenny Stills for a 75-yard score, and Tannehill also connected with Stills for the other touchdown. Miami’s quarterback could be an underrated streaming option over the next couple weeks against the Jets and Raiders, but there are still probably better options at a deep position. The biggest takeaway from the season opener—which turned out to be the longest game in NFL history thanks to two weather delays—is that Adam Gase’s squad is going to be better than people thought.

Deshaun Watson struggles in Week 1 loss to the New England.

The good news is Watson showed zero limitation in his first regular season action coming off his torn ACL from last year, but he didn’t have his best game against the Patriots, missing some throws. Watson was 17/34 for 176 passing yards, one passing touchdown, one interception, and one fumble lost along with eight carries for 40 rushing yards. The Patriots did get a lot of pressure on Watson all afternoon, and he showed his usual great poise while scrambling and keeping his eyes downfield to make throws, but overall it wasn’t a great game for him. The touchdown was to Bruce Ellington in the red zone, and the interception was on a deep ball thrown into double coverage in the end zone. Look for Watson to bounce back in Week 2 against the Titans.

Darius Jennings scores 94-yard kick return touchdown in Week 1 loss.

Jennings made an impact when Tennessee needed it in the fourth quarter, but they still fell to the Dolphins, 27-20. The 26-year-old isn’t a fantasy factor, but he will try to keep making plays for the Titans.

Tyler Conklin catches one pass against the Niners.

Conklin gained six yards on his lone reception (one target) in the Week 1 victory for Minnesota. Conklin is not a fantasy option at the moment.

David Morgan catches one pass in Week 1.

Morgan gained nine yards on his lone reception against the Niners. He’s not on the fantasy radar at the moment.

Kyle Rudolph scores in Week 1.

Rudolph was quiet all game against the Niners, but he broke open in the back of the end zone for an 11-yard touchdown in the third quarter. The score was Rudolph’s only catch of the game. He should be more involved overall against the Packers in Week 2.

Taywan Taylor doesn’t touch the ball in season opener.

Taylor was one of the stars of August and looked on his way to winning the No. 2 receiver job behind Corey Davis, but the new coaching staff has decided to go with Tajae Sharpe and Rishard Matthews over him. We would think Taylor eventually forces his way onto the field, but there are probably better options on the waiver wire to stash on your bench right now.
