Outlook Chris Bell

Chris Bell vs. Chiefs — Knee Concern Meets Expanded Opportunity

Bell is listed as questionable with a knee injury, though he stated he is ready to play in Week 3 against Kansas City. With fellow starting wideout Caleb Douglas already ruled out with an ankle issue, Bell is positioned to lead Miami's outside receiver rotation alongside Malik Washington and Jalen Tolbert. Check back before kickoff to confirm his active status.

Through two weeks, Bell has managed just one catch for 25 yards on three targets in a Malik Willis-led offense that has struggled out of the gate. While Miami sits as heavy underdogs in a game script that should prompt passing volume, our projections anticipate modest output with 1.7 receptions for 24 yards (4.6 fantasy points). Given the low baseline and knee uncertainty, fantasy managers should keep him on the bench.

Outlook Brian Thomas

Brian Thomas vs NE: Prime Target Opportunity at Home

Thomas is healthy and operating as Jacksonville's top perimeter receiver after moving past the minor shoulder scare sustained earlier this month. With fellow receiver Jakobi Meyers battling a thumb issue, Thomas could absorb extra volume after drawing 11 targets through the first two games.

Although fantasy managers have cooled on him with start rates dipping to 11%, our models project him for about 3 receptions, 43 yards, and 9.0 fantasy points. Against New England in a game with Jacksonville favored by three, he profiles as an upside flex option who is due for a breakout splash play.
