Michael Penix vs. KC at Home — Risky Play Against a Stingy Defense

Penix enters Sunday's home matchup healthy, looking to steady a skidding Falcons team after throwing five interceptions over his last two games. While he vowed to shake off a rain-soaked meltdown in Tampa Bay and flashed surprise mobility with 61 rushing yards across his past two starts, erratic ball security still clouds his upside alongside playmakers Bijan Robinson, Drake London, and Kyle Pitts Sr.

Fantasy managers have understandably stayed cautious, leaving him on benches or waivers across most leagues ahead of a tough test against Kansas City. Even with Atlanta entering as slight home underdogs in a solid scoring environment, our models project roughly 170 passing yards and one touchdown for about 14 fantasy points, making him an easy sit outside of deep two-quarterback formats.

Breakout Momentum Meets Blustery Road Test in Cleveland

Tank Dell erupted for 105 receiving yards and a touchdown on nine targets from C.J. Stroud last week, proving his big-play chemistry remains intact. Operating as Houston's starting slot receiver alongside Nico Collins and a banged-up Marvin Harrison Jr., Dell now carries a questionable tag with shoulder and hand injuries after a limited practice, so come back often for the latest news on his availability.

Fantasy managers rushed to add him off waivers, more than doubling his roster rate this week, yet most are still keeping him stashed on benches. That caution aligns with our weekly projection of roughly two catches for 30 yards in a windy, low-scoring outdoor matchup in Cleveland, making Dell a risky flex option for deeper leagues.
