"Each Monday, before the current NFL week ends, we will identify players available in at least 50% of ESPN standard leagues worthy of your attention, from standard formats to deeper options. The NFL is a weekly league, and player valuation and roles seldom remain stagnant. It does not matter how you acquire players for your fantasy rosters, just that you get them."
"Jake Browning, Cincinnati Bengals (rostered in 0.0% of ESPN leagues): We start with this career backup, but many fantasy managers can do better in single-QB formats. Browning, 29, made seven starts during the 2023 season, and he played capably, averaging 20 fantasy points per game. Burrow (toe) is expected to miss three months. Browning scored 17.74 Points in Sunday's win over the Jacksonville Jaguars, though that included three interceptions."
The second Sunday of the NFL season produced abundant fantasy scoring, with six players topping 30 PPR points and three elite wide receivers leading the surge. Seven games featured 50 or more combined points entering Monday night. Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Burrow is expected to miss approximately three months with a toe injury, removing last season's No. 3 fantasy QB and creating longer-term effects for managers. Jake Browning, a 29-year-old career backup, will step into the starting role; he averaged 20 fantasy points per game in seven 2023 starts but may be better suited to superflex/2QB formats. Browning scored 17.74 points with three interceptions in a recent win.
