Jonathon Brooks vs. CHI — Risky Flex Option While Managing Groin Injury
Brooks enters Week 1 listed as questionable due to groin soreness, though both he and head coach Dave Canales expressed confidence he will suit up against Chicago. Working behind Chuba Hubbard in Carolina's backfield, Brooks should see a rotational share of touches if active, particularly with Trevor Etienne sidelined on injured reserve.
Fantasy managers have taken a cautious approach, starting him in under 20% of leagues. Our weekly projection forecasts around 10 carries, 44 rushing yards, and two receptions against the Bears. In a home matchup with decent scoring upside, Brooks profiles as a risky flex option who is best benched if possible. Check back before kickoff for final updates.

Cam Skattebo vs. Dallas — Primed for Lead Touches in High-Scoring Home Opener
Skattebo enters the regular season fully healthy and sits atop the depth chart ahead of Tyrone Tracy Jr. and Najee Harris. Head coach John Harbaugh recently floated the possibility of a heavy workload reaching 20 carries per game. Hosting Dallas in an expected high-scoring matchup, Skattebo should see plenty of early-down volume and high-value goal-line work.
Started in 94% of leagues, fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into lineups as a strong RB2. Our projection pegs him for about 16 fantasy points, anticipating roughly 70 total yards on 11-12 carries and three to four targets. Skattebo provides a stable touch floor with prime touchdown equity in New York's home opener.
