Outlook Denzel Boston
Denzel Boston steps into starting lineup with intriguing rookie upside
The second-round rookie has earned a starting perimeter receiver spot on Cleveland's depth chart alongside veteran Jerry Jeudy and fellow rookie KC Concepcion following an eye-opening training camp. With Deshaun Watson under center and Jamari Thrash sidelined, Boston enters the week healthy and positioned to run meaningful routes right out of the gate.
Despite his promotion to the first-team offense, fantasy managers are taking a wait-and-see approach, with Boston rostered in 39% of leagues but started in just 1%. Our weekly projection pegs him for about 2.6 receptions, 32 receiving yards, and 6.8 fantasy points, making him an intriguing bench stash rather than a recommended starter for lineups.

Outlook Alec Pierce
Alec Pierce Cleared for Season Opener — Volatile Flex Option Against Baltimore
Colts head coach Shane Steichen announced that Pierce is ready to roll for Week 1 against the Ravens after recovering from offseason ankle and heel surgery. Pierce returned to practice in late August and resumes a starting perimeter role alongside newcomer Keenan Allen. With an official questionable tag still lingering, fantasy managers should check back before kickoff for any late updates on his game-day status.
Although rostered in 97% of leagues, Pierce sits at a modest 22% start rate as managers cautiously assess his workload. Our weekly projection targets around 9.9 fantasy points on nearly six targets and 49 receiving yards. His established deep-threat role provides splash-play ceiling, but potential ramp-up snaps make him a risky flex play.
