Outlook Kenny Gainwell
Kenny Gainwell vs. CLE — Secondary Role Caps Weekly Fantasy Upside
Gainwell enters Week 2 operating as the primary backup in Tampa Bay's backfield behind starter Bucky Irving. In the season opener, he handled just five rushing attempts for 15 yards and caught one pass for three yards, underscoring his complementary role in the offense.
With Tampa Bay favored at home against Cleveland, a positive game script could yield additional second-half rushing opportunities. However, Gainwell's limited touch share keeps his fantasy floor low. Our projections expect roughly eight carries for 33 yards and two to three receptions, solidifying him as a bench stash rather than a recommended starter.

Kaleb Johnson at Jets — Buried on the Depth Chart and Off Fantasy Radars
After arriving via trade from Pittsburgh late in the preseason, Johnson remains an emergency depth piece in Green Bay's backfield. Even with Josh Jacobs sidelined on the commissioner's exempt list, Johnson is buried behind MarShawn Lloyd and Chris Brooks on the depth chart, limiting his offensive involvement despite head coach Matt LaFleur noting early scheme familiarity.
Our weekly projection forecasts Johnson for just 2.1 carries and 7.1 rushing yards (1.4 fantasy points), pointing to a negligible role. With a 0% start rate across fantasy leagues, managers should leave him firmly on the waiver wire or bench until his weekly volume expands.
