Outlook A.J. Brown
A.J. Brown Primed for Rebound Spot Against Divisional Rival Dolphins
After returning from an ankle injury, Brown has commanded 16 targets over his last two games as New England's clear top weapon. While recent drops have drawn attention, head coach Mike Vrabel voiced complete confidence this week, noting Brown just needs to find his rhythm—especially with Romeo Doubs on injured reserve.
Rostered in 100% of leagues and started in 85%, fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into their lineups across all formats. Our weekly projection lands at 14.9 fantasy points with roughly five catches for 72 yards, offering strong upside as a road favorite against a 1-5 Dolphins defense.

Outlook Justin Herbert
Justin Herbert at LAR — Turnover Woes and Depleted Protection Cloud Outlook
Herbert enters Week 8 looking to reset following the bye week, but his early-season struggles have been severe, logging eight interceptions and just five passing touchdowns through six games. The Chargers' pass protection remains heavily compromised with key offensive linemen sidelined, and top target Ladd McConkey is currently questionable with a concussion.
Fantasy managers have fled in droves, dropping his roster mark down to 34%. As 6.5-point underdogs against the Rams, our projections slate Herbert for approximately 202 passing yards and 1.0 touchdown with 32 rushing yards (14.7 fantasy points). He carries a low floor and is best left on the bench in standard 1-QB leagues.
