Justin Herbert vs HOU — Turnover Troubles Keep Him on the Fantasy Fringe
Herbert and the winless Chargers offense continue to sputter, with the quarterback throwing an interception in every game this season alongside ten total picks. Compounded by a battered offensive line missing key starters, Herbert has gone eight consecutive starts without multiple passing touchdowns.
With his start rate sinking to just 6%, Herbert has plummeted onto fantasy benches. Facing Houston in a low-scoring projected game, our weekly projection expects around 204 passing yards, 0.7 touchdowns, and 1.2 interceptions (13.7 fantasy points). He remains a risky play who should stay on the bench until the offense proves it can finish drives.

Jonah Coleman at Carolina: Primed for lead touches against a vulnerable defense
Fresh off a 104-scrimmage-yard, one-touchdown breakout against Kansas City, Coleman has quickly claimed high-leverage work in Denver's backfield. With teammate RJ Harvey on injured reserve, the rookie out-touched veteran J.K. Dobbins last week, handling 15 touches while showcasing dual-threat efficiency as both a rusher and receiver.
Facing a Carolina defense that struggles mightily against running backs, Coleman is positioned for another productive outing. Our weekly projections anticipate approximately 14.2 fantasy points on 11 carries for 52 yards and three receptions for 23 yards. With his fantasy start rate rapidly surging above 66%, fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into lineups as a high-end RB2.
