Outlook Woody Marks
Woody Marks at LAC — Primary Workload in a Favorable Script
Marks is fully healthy after shaking off a minor leg scare in his previous game. With lead back David Montgomery ruled out due to a groin injury, Marks steps into the primary role ahead of Dare Ogunbowale. The second-year back has established solid momentum, toting the rock 19 times in his last outing and logging at least 15 carries in three straight contests.
Facing a winless Chargers squad as road favorites, Marks should benefit from a run-friendly game script. Our weekly projection slots him for 16.3 carries, 76 total yards, and 13.1 fantasy points. Fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into their lineups across all formats as a dependable RB2.

Outlook Michael Penix
Michael Penix vs. CIN — High-Scoring Madrid Matchup Offers Rebound Opportunity
Penix enters Week 9 looking to put a disastrous four-interception outing in Tampa Bay behind him, which came just one week after taking home NFC Offensive Player of the Week honors. Operating as the clear starter under center, he is completely off the injury report and heads to Madrid with an opportunity to reset the narrative against a tough 5-2 Bengals team.
With this neutral-site game sporting one of the highest projected totals on the board, game script should force Atlanta into active passing volume. Our projections slate Penix for 208 passing yards, 1.5 passing touchdowns, and 16.3 fantasy points. Given his single-digit rushing production and recent turnover volatility, fantasy managers should treat him as a matchup-dependent streamer in standard leagues and a solid QB2 in Superflex formats.
