Malik Willis at Las Vegas — Dual-Threat Debut Brings Sneaky Streaming Appeal

Malik Willis steps into his Dolphins starting debut on the road in Las Vegas, taking the reins of the offense after signing a lucrative contract this offseason. With a backfield led by De'Von Achane and an evolving receiving corps, Miami is giving Willis the full opportunity to showcase his development.

While fantasy managers remain cautious—he is rostered in 36% of leagues and started in just 6%—his rushing profile supplies an intriguing fantasy baseline. Facing a low 40.5 game total, our models project him for 203 passing yards, 1.2 passing touchdowns, and 29 rushing yards (15.6 fantasy points), making him a viable streaming option in multi-quarterback formats.

Outlook David Montgomery

David Montgomery vs. Buffalo — Texans Debut in a Tight Home Matchup

Entering his regular-season debut with Houston, David Montgomery heads the backfield hierarchy ahead of Woody Marks. While training camp reports pointed to a shared backfield workload, Montgomery is slated to handle lead duties and short-yardage work. Houston should lean on his veteran consistency, even as the offensive front copes with tackle Braden Smith landing on injured reserve.

Rostered universally and started in 83% of leagues, Montgomery is a dependable RB2 or flex play. Our weekly projection slots him for roughly 11 carries, 51 rushing yards, and a couple of targets (13.4 fantasy points), giving him a solid scoring baseline with touchdown upside in what projects as a close contest.
