Outlook Chris Brooks
Chris Brooks at NYJ — Workload Carve-Out in a Shuffled Backfield
With starter Josh Jacobs sidelined on the commissioner exempt list, Brooks operated in a shared backfield alongside MarShawn Lloyd during Week 1, handling seven carries for 29 yards. While listed behind Lloyd on the depth chart, Brooks earned noticeable playing time—particularly in blitz pickup—signaling trust from the coaching staff while Kaleb Johnson remains phased in.
Despite his roster rate jumping to 26%, Brooks is started in just 3% of leagues. Our models project roughly 30 rushing yards on six to seven carries with modest receiving involvement (5.5 fantasy points) against the Jets. Without guaranteed goal-line touches or a featured role, fantasy managers should keep him parked on the bench outside of deep formats.

Outlook Antonio Williams
Antonio Williams at Dallas — High-Scoring Environment Boosts Rookie's Target Upside
Fresh off earning NFL Rookie of the Week honors in his debut, Williams caught all four of his targets for 64 yards and a touchdown against Philadelphia. Operating out of the slot and quickly establishing chemistry with Jayden Daniels, the rookie has already carved out an active role in Washington's passing game.
Heading into Dallas for a road matchup with major shootout potential, Williams is a viable deep-league play and priority stash. His roster rate has jumped to 26% over the past week, and while our weekly projection conservatively pegs him for 2.3 catches, 30 receiving yards, and 6.4 fantasy points, his explosive playmaking gives him appealing upside.
