Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott has been a frustrating fantasy football option in recent weeks, largely due to his tendency to turn over the football. Prescott has six interceptions and one lost fumble to just four touchdowns over his last three games, but those subpar outings came against talented defenses in the Pittsburgh Steelers, Detroit Lions, and San Francisco 49ers. This week, Prescott faces the Atlanta Falcons, who have been a little more forgiving to the quarterback position this season. So far, the Falcons have allowed the eighth-most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks, as well as the seventh-most passing touchdowns and the third-most rushing yards. Turnovers are still a concern with Prescott going forward, but fantasy managers should expect his floor and ceiling to increase this week against Atlanta. He ranks just outside the top 12 fantasy quarterbacks at the moment.

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott struggled for most of the night on Sunday against San Francisco. It wasn't until halfway through the fourth quarter when Prescott and the Cowboys' offense came to life, pushing too little too late. Prescott's two touchdowns both came with under eight minutes remaining in the game. He finished the night 25-for-38 for 243 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions. The 31-year-old will be back in action next week with a slightly easier matchup against Atlanta.

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott had his worst performance of the season the last time we saw him. Fresh off of a bye week, Prescott and the Cowboys are back in prime time on Sunday Night Football against San Francisco in Week 8. The matchup is not ideal for Prescott, as the 49ers have allowed the 12th-least fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks. The 31-year-old can be considered in two-quarterback leagues, but there are likely better starting options available this week in standard formats.

New York Jets running back Braelon Allen carried the ball four times for nine yards and failed to catch his lone target in a 21-13 win over the Houston Texans in Week 9's Thursday night game. Allen showed some life last week, turning 12 carries into 32 yards and a touchdown but he was right back to just a handful of carries behind Breece Hall in Thursday night's win. Allen has seen eight or fewer carries in five of his past six contests as the Jets have committed to getting the ball in Hall's hands of late. Allen remains a solid fantasy handcuff behind Hall but should not be in starting lineups in Week 10 when the Jets face off against the Arizona Cardinals on the road.

New York Jets running back Braelon Allen carried the ball 12 times for 32 yards and a touchdown in a 25-22 loss to the New England Patriots in Week 8. Allen was surprisingly reinserted into the Jets' offense after seeing just 10 total carries in the previous three games. The rookie running back found the end zone for the third time this season on a two-yard carry in the fourth quarter. Allen remains a priority handcuff to Breece Hall in fantasy, although his inconsistent workload every week makes him tough to trust in starting lineups. He will next take on the Houston Texans in Week 9's Thursday night game.

New York Jets running back Braelon Allen has become a forgotten man in the team's backfield in the two games since the team fired Robert Saleh and made Jeff Ulbrich the interim head coach. Allen has handled just eight touches in his two games since the coaching change as the new regime has focused on getting the ball to Breece Hall. The Jets draw a plus matchup against a New England Patriots defense that is allowing the third-most fantasy points per game to running backs but Allen should not be trusted in starting lineups despite the plus matchup.

New York Jets wide receiver Davante Adams (concussion) caught seven of his 11 targets for 91 yards and a touchdown in a 21-13 win over the Houston Texans in Week 9's Thursday night game. Adams and Aaron Rodgers connected for their first touchdown since they played for the Green Bay Packers together back in 2022 on a 37-yard strike in the fourth quarter. The big outing from Adams easily goes in the books as his best effort since the Jets acquired him from the Las Vegas Raiders ahead of Week 7. Adams survived an injury scare during the second half as he was evaluated for a concussion. He ultimately passed the league's testing and was able to return to the field for the remainder of the game. Adams will be a solid WR2 in fantasy heading into Week 10's road game against the Arizona Cardinals.

New York Jets wide receiver Davante Adams has yet to post a big game since his new team traded for him two weeks ago, catching seven passes for 84 yards in two games. He will look to make a bigger impact on his team's offense heading into Week 9's Thursday night game against the Houston Texans. Houston represents a plus matchup for Adams as they are allowing the eight-most fantasy points per game to the position thus far. Treat Adams as a low-end WR2 heading into Week 9.

New York Jets wide receiver Davante Adams caught four of his six targets for 54 yards in a 25-22 loss to the New England Patriots in Week 8. Adams finished second on the Jets in targets, catches, and receiving yards behind only Garrett Wilson in the close loss but it goes down as his second straight pedestrian outing since the team acquired him from the Las Vegas Raiders ahead of Week 7. Adams should have better days ahead of him as he gets more acclimated to the New York offense but it appears that he is not going to be overtaking Wilson as the team's No. 1 receiver anytime soon. Adams will be a low-end WR2 in fantasy heading into Week 9's Thursday night game against the Houston Texans.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Jalen Tolbert has seen his production decline during the team's two-game losing streak (averaging 3.5 catches, 43.5 yards, zero touchdowns), but he has a solid opportunity to bounce back against a below-average Atlanta Falcons passing defense in Week 9. Coming off a three-catch, 44-yard performance in which he was massively outperformed by CeeDee Lamb, Tolbert could capitalize on an Atlanta defense that particularly struggles to defend perimeter receivers. Still, given how Tolbert has underperformed over the last few weeks, it will be tough to trust him as anything more than a WR3/FLEX play in Week 9. He ranks just outside the top 36 fantasy receivers at the moment.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Jalen Tolbert was targeted three times in the comeback loss against San Francisco on Sunday night. Tolbert caught all three targets for 44 yards, making minimal fantasy impact. With CeeDee Lamb (45%) taking a massive target share, Tolbert will likely remain a touchdown-dependent deep flex option going forward.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Jalen Tolbert remains a deep league flex option heading into Week 8's Sunday night matchup with the San Francisco 49ers. Dallas looks to continue to lean on the passing game, making Tolbert the second or third option for quarterback Dak Prescott. San Francisco boasts the 11th-ranked defense against opposing receivers, creating a tough matchup for Tolbert. He can be started in desperation, but there are better options for WR3 and flex spots.

Washington Commanders kicker Austin Seibert has enjoyed an excellent start to his time in Washington and should continue to be viewed as a high-end kicking option in Week 9. Since joining the Commanders in Week 2, Seibert has averaged 12.6 fantasy points per game. During this stretch, Seibert has gone perfect on all attempts from within 49 yards and on extra points. In addition, he has attempted at least two field goals in all but one game this season. Given how potent the Washington offense has looked under Jayden Daniels. Seibert remains a matchup-proof option going forward.

Washington Commanders kicker Austin Seibert had another productive afternoon as he went 4-for-5 on field goals in their victory over the Chicago Bears. His lone miss came off a blocked attempt from 51 yards out. His longest conversion was from 47 yards out. Since joining Washington in Week 2, Seibert has only missed two field goal attempts and has been perfect from within 49 yards. Fantasy managers should continue to view the 27-year-old as a high-end fantasy option, given how impressive the Washington offense has looked. He should remain locked into all starting lineups going forward.

Washington Commanders kicker Austin Seibert remains a high-end kicking option in Week 8 when he faces the Chicago Bears. Since joining the Commanders in Week 2, Seibert has missed just one attempt and has been perfect on all extra points. He has attempted at least two field goals in all but one game and attempted three or more in three games. Even though the Commanders may be without their QB1, the Washington offense looked just as potent with Marcus Mariota last weekend. As a result, Seibert should have ample opportunities to get on the scoresheet on Sunday afternoon and should be started in all formats with confidence.

San Francisco 49ers running back Jordan Mason (shoulder) was injured and unable to return during Sunday's win over the Dallas Cowboys. Afterwards, head coach Kyle Shanahan said Mason maybe could've returned to the contest. Rookie back Isaac Guerendo didn't miss a beat as he rushed for 85 yards and a touchdown in Mason's absence. It sounds like the plan is for Mason to be evaluated after the Week 9 bye. Fellow back Christian McCaffrey is expected to return in Week 10, so Mason's value could be taking a huge hit here soon. Fantasy managers who have Mason rostered should prepare for his value to decrease here soon.

San Francisco 49ers running back Jordan Mason (shoulder) exited during the second quarter of Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys and did not return. Although the 49ers listed him as questionable at the time of his departure, Mason did not register an opportunity for the entire second half. He finished an injury-riddled Week 8 with just six rushes for 18 yards on the ground and no contributions in the passing game. Mason has now posted single-digit fantasy points (PPR) in four consecutive games, and while three of those performances were limited by injury, his reduced productivity is frustrating nonetheless. Fantasy managers will hope Mason can get healthy during the Week 9 bye, but he could end up losing his job if Christian McCaffrey (Achilles) returns against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 10.

San Francisco 49ers running back Jordan Mason (shoulder) exited Sunday night's matchup against the Dallas Cowboys in the second quarter with a shoulder injury and is questionable to return. He's racked up 18 yards on his six carries thus far. Mason looked to have injured himself earlier in the contest but was not brought into the blue medical tent for further evaluation. However, he was not out there for a 49ers series late in the first half and ultimately went to the locker room. For now, rookie running back Isaac Guerendo will take over lead duties in San Francisco's backfield. Expect an update on Mason shortly.

According to head coach Doug Pederson, Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Christian Kirk (collarbone) underwent surgery this morning on his broken collarbone. He'll miss the remainder of the season, as Kainani Stevens of the team reported. While Jacksonville's 2024 is in turmoil -- sitting at 2-6 -- it's still a considerable blow to the team, who could have potentially traded Kirk to a contender before the Nov. 5 trade deadline. He'll now begin the road to recovery. It's the second consecutive season that an injury has cut the 27-year-old's campaign short after missing the final five games of 2023 with a core muscle injury. The Texas A&M alum has potentially played his last snap for the Jaguars, with one year left on his four-year deal after being the subject of trade rumors recently. With rookie wideout Brian Thomas Jr. (chest) dinged up as well, wide receivers Gabe Davis (shoulder), Parker Washington, and Tim Jones figure to see an increase in usage.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Christian Kirk (collarbone) will miss the remainder of the 2024 season after suffering a broken collarbone in Sunday's 30-27 loss to the Green Bay Packers. He finished his night recording 59 yards on 2-of-5 receiving. The seventh-year wideout exited the game early in the fourth quarter after landing hard on his left shoulder while going after a deep shot from Trevor Lawrence and immediately went to the locker room -- a foreboding sign. What was initially considered a shoulder injury will effectively end his season. It's a big blow to Jacksonville, as their offense appeared to be finding its footing over the last few weeks. Additionally, Kirk had his name thrown around in trade circles ahead of the Nov. 5 deadline. In his stead, WRs Brian Thomas Jr. and Gabe Davis figure to earn more targets, while Parker Washington and Tim Jones will fill in for three-wide-receiver sets.

Per ESPN's Adam Schefter, Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Christian Kirk has generated significant trade buzz ahead of the Nov. 5 deadline. With wideouts changing hands left and right over the last few weeks, it appears Kirk could be one of the next on the move. The seventh-year WR is in his third campaign with Jacksonville, who, after another loss on Sunday, "might make it more likely they would be willing to entertain offers for players such as Kirk," according to Schefter. Despite a solid three-week stretch, the 27-year-old has mostly taken a backseat to first-round rookie wideout Brian Thomas Jr. in the passing game thus far. That trend could continue with tight end Evan Engram back in the fold. The ESPN Insider noted that Carolina Panthers wide receiver Diontae Johnson (ribs) is a highly-sought trade piece as well, so it could be an eventful upcoming two weeks before the trade deadline. A change of scenery would undoubtedly boost his outlook.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson has been hit and miss this season but can turn things around with a good game when the Packers host the Detroit Lions in Week 9. Watson has been entirely touchdown-dependent this season as his two best games this season have come when he scored touchdowns in Week 1 and Week 6. He did lead the team in targets last week with six against the Jaguars but could only muster four receptions for 39 yards. While Watson is one of the Packers' most dangerous deep threats, it all comes down to who is playing quarterback for the Packers in Week 9. Jordan Love (groin) was listed as questionable in the team's final practice report and if he doesn't play, Malik Willis will start. Willis at quarterback downgrades the pass-catchers across the board for fantasy, so while Watson with Love at quarterback is a dart-throw flex play, Willis at quarterback makes Watson an avoid in fantasy in Week 9.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson led the Packers in receptions as they edged the Jaguars in Jacksonville 30-27 in Week 8. Watson tied for the team lead in targets on the day with a six-target effort, bringing in a team-leading four receptions for 39 yards on the afternoon. All six of Watson's targets came with Jordan Love at quarterback, who left in the third quarter with a groin injury. Watson put forth a solid effort, but with the injury to Love and the bevy of pass-catchers involved each week in Green Bay, there's a lot of competition for targets and fantasy point-scoring opportunities. Watson is a boom-or-bust flex option for fantasy managers when the Packers host the Detroit Lions in Week 9.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson (ankle) practiced in limited fashion on Wednesday and Thursday but put together a full practice and was removed from the team's injury report, indicating that he's good to go for the Packers' Week 8 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The story for Watson has been up and down, as he's paired some touchdown-dependent games with several clunkers, like last week where he only earned two targets, catching one of those targets for nine yards. Watson and Dontayvion Wicks have essentially split a role in this offense over the last couple of weeks, with Romeo Doubs and Jayden Reed maintaining their roles as full-time players. As long as Watson isn't running a full routes share, he's going to be very hard to trust in fantasy. That said, the matchup is great for Watson and he has loads of big-play potential. For Week 8, consider Watson a low-end WR4 option that is heavily reliant on the big play to matter in fantasy.
