Deshaun Watson vs. Panthers — Looking to Build Momentum in Home Opener

Coming off a sharp Week 2 performance where he threw for 238 yards and two touchdowns in a win over Tampa Bay, Watson has solidified his spot leading Cleveland's offense for the home opener against Carolina. Head coach Todd Monken voiced strong support following the victory, locking Watson in under center despite outside noise.

Fantasy managers remain cautious with Watson rostered in only 6% of leagues. Our models project 209 passing yards, 1.3 touchdowns, and 22 rushing yards (14.7 fantasy points). Facing a modest 41.5 over/under, Watson profiles primarily as a superflex tournament dart rather than a trustworthy standard-league option.

Outlook Parker Washington

Parker Washington vs. Patriots — Red-Hot Target Earner Poised for Another Productive Week

Parker Washington has locked down Jacksonville's starting slot role alongside Brian Thomas Jr. and Jakobi Meyers, emerging as a trusted go-to option for Trevor Lawrence. Betting on himself after contract talks stalled, Washington has answered with a blazing start, commanding 18 targets and compiling 12 catches for 181 yards and a touchdown over his first two contests.

With his start rate climbing to 82%, fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into their lineups across all formats. We project him for roughly 5 receptions on 7 to 8 targets for 65 receiving yards in this home matchup against New England, giving him a dependable PPR floor with weekly WR2 upside.
