Outlook Jalen Nailor
Jalen Nailor at LAC — Expanded Role Potential with Bowers Sidelined
Jalen Nailor opened the season operating as an outside starting wide receiver for Las Vegas, hauling in three of five targets for 27 yards in Week 1. With star tight end Brock Bowers ruled out for Week 2, additional looks in the passing game should funnel outward to Nailor and fellow perimeter receiver Tre Tucker in an offense spearheaded by Kirk Cousins.
As 6.5-point road underdogs against the Chargers, the Raiders may be forced into more passing volume to keep pace. Our weekly projection lands at 7.3 fantasy points on roughly four targets and 34 receiving yards. While his low rostered rate leaves him on most waiver wires, Nailor is an intriguing deep-league play or DFS dart throw who could outproduce expectations.

Kaelon Black vs. Dolphins — Rotational Appeal in Favorable Game Script
Black entered the weekend listed as questionable with a groin strain, but multiple reports confirm he is expected to play Sunday against Miami. The rookie quickly cemented himself as the primary backup to Christian McCaffrey, making an immediate Week 1 splash with 14 carries for 65 yards. While Kyle Shanahan described the groin tightness as minor, fantasy managers should check in close to kickoff to confirm his active status.
Rostered in over 76% of leagues but started in fewer than 5%, Black remains primarily an elite insurance stash with standalone deep-league value. As heavy home favorites, San Francisco's projected positive game script could easily open up second-half rushing volume. Our weekly projection anticipates roughly 9 carries for 43 yards and nearly 8 fantasy points, making him a viable deep-league flex play.
