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 Carnell Tate
Carnell Tate vs. PHI — Target Upside as Home Underdogs
The rookie first-rounder stepped immediately into Tennessee's starting receiver lineup in Week 1, earning six targets and turning them into four catches for 38 yards alongside Calvin Ridley. Operating as a primary outside target for rookie quarterback Cam Ward, Tate is fully healthy and entrenched in the offense without injury limitations.
Rostered in 97% of leagues but started in just 27%, Tate is currently viewed more as an upside bench stash than a lineup lock. However, with Tennessee listed as a touchdown underdog against Philadelphia, negative game script could boost passing volume. Our weekly projection expects around 3.6 receptions on nearly seven targets for 48 yards, making him a viable Flex option.
