Outlook Jeremiyah Love
Jeremiyah Love at LAC — High-upside rookie trending toward season debut
Love is officially questionable for Sunday's opener against the Chargers with an ankle injury, though head coach Mike LaFleur noted he is trending toward playing. While listed behind Tyler Allgeier on the depth chart, the rookie is expected to share touches right away. Because of the injury designation, be sure to check back before kickoff for his official availability.
Currently started in 85% of leagues, Love functions as a volatile flex play for Week 1. Arizona visits the Chargers as significant underdogs, which could tilt game script toward Love's receiving ability out of the backfield. Our models project around 11 carries, 48 rushing yards, and three receptions (12.2 fantasy points), making him a viable starter if active.

Samaje Perine vs. Buccaneers — Backup Workload Keeps Him on Fantasy Benches
Perine enters the season opener operating as Cincinnati's primary backup running back behind starter Chase Brown. While the veteran displayed his short-yardage utility with a goal-line score during the preseason, he is slated for a strictly complementary change-of-pace role in what is expected to be a high-scoring home matchup against Tampa Bay.
Our weekly projections expect a modest workload of roughly five carries for 21 rushing yards alongside one catch for nine yards (5.2 fantasy points). With fantasy managers starting him in zero percent of leagues, Perine offers minimal standalone value this week and belongs firmly on fantasy benches as a pure contingent stash.
