Week 2 was rough for injuries, which should make it a busy week on the waiver wire. It might be time to spend some FAAB. At quarterback, we're down three stars after Caleb Williams (hamstring) was injured against Minnesota, Jayden Daniels (elbow) was hurt at Dallas and Jaxson Dart (knee) left Monday night at the Rams.
All three are expected to miss an extended period of time. Bryce Young (54 percent rostered on CBS Sports) is the No. 1 quarterback to add, and Jameis Winston (2 percent rostered) and Marcus Mariota (2 percent rostered) are worth a look in Superflex and two-quarterback leagues with Daniels and Dart out. Kyler Murray (64 percent rostered) is also expected to return in Week 3 at Tampa Bay after missing Week 2 with a concussion.
Saquon Barkley (shoulder), Jadarian Price (shoulder) and J.K. Dobbins (hamstring) were all injured in Week 2. There's a chance all three could play in Week 3, but adding Jonah Coleman (49 percent rostered) is a priority after RJ Harvey (hamstring) missed Denver's game against Jacksonville.
Tank Bigsby (49 percent rostered) should also be added if Barkley is out, and Emanuel Wilson (4 percent rostered) could be an option to replace Price. Wide receiver was already missing plenty of stars with A.J. Brown (ankle) on injured reserve and then Puka Nacua (hip), Nico Collins (hamstring), Zay Flowers (hamstring) and Michael Pittman (foot) were out for Week 2.
Moore (shoulder), Alec Pierce (heel), Jayden Reed (back) and Caleb Douglas (ankle) were all injured in Week 2, so we're again looking for replacement options. My favorites are Denzel Boston (52 percent rostered) and Tre Tucker (50 percent rostered). It appears like we're getting good news at tight end with the return of Brock Bowers (knee) in Week 3 at New Orleans, but Dallas Goedert (knee) was injured in Week 2 at Tennessee.
The best replacement is Dalton Schultz (60 percent), who could be a starting Fantasy tight end for the rest of the season. We'll cover plenty of other guys at every position, as well as streaming options at DST and kicker. Injuries are a problem, and we're here to help.
