WTF! In Week 2, Proxy puts up 33 pts on Thursday night against me. Week 3 Bling Bling throws down 26.5. If this keeps up, its going to be a very long season for Killers.
It was an exciting week. My game came down to the wire and I saw a few others that were nail biters.
Oh fuck, I just realized that if I moved Keaton Mitchel to IR it would not have cost a point to pickup a new player. The point cost me to tie!!!
Hi guys, I'll have the weekly commissioners note posted on Tuesday evening. Apologies for the delays!
Team Proxy takes the week with a whopping 125 against me. Nice job!
Good question. The rule was intended to be for "same team" situations where you have one player who will potentially be inactive in a later game and to avoid the late SOL player, you would designate one of your bench players to replace them in an earlier game.
In your case, you are trying to decide if a player on another team goes inactive, you want to activate the handcuff player. That is tricky and not an aspect that we discussed but I'm open to supporting that angle since handcuffs aren't always on the same team in our league. So if you can either post a note or email me and your competitor something like, "If CMC goes inactive, play Mason and bench X".
The second aspect of your message is that both team owners will be unavailable on Sunday. Life happens and we're here to have fun and with connectivity today, it should be rare. Casey may not have access on a flight to London, for example, so we should have a plan. I am open to an email / message board note that identifies 'no access' and here is a roster change that I'd like to implement if someone goes inactive at kickoff. If it's an extended trip (ex. Solo owner Rick might miss 2 weekends to climb Denali), and you submit a lineup for Week A, you can send me a note to identify your lineup for Week B and I'll make the updates. If there's an injury in Week A, inclusion of a contingent player would be helpful. If you have 2 QB on your roster and one goes down, its a no brainer but if you start 1 RB and he gets hurt, if you have 2 backup RB, you might not want me doing that coin flip - but that's how I'll handle it unless I can clearly rule someone out (Bye Week). Thus, the contingent player (and you'd probably want to do the same at WR!). Your other option for an extended leave? Find another owner in the league to be your proxy and let me know who they are. They can then tell me who to play for you. I'm open to both approaches.
Let me know if there are any questions.

Hey commish. Doug’s d I both traveling this weekend and may not be online. We have mason in currently and want to play him if CMC is out. But his game is late Sunday. In order to be compliant with the rule, do we put in the player that plays before mason in the lineup and then that guys gets replaced if CMC is not active Sunday night. ??

According to NFL Media's Tom Pelissero, Houston Texans running back Joe Mixon (ankle) won't play in Sunday's game against the Vikings. The 28-year-old had a massive Week 1 performance versus the Colts. Unfortunately, he injured his ankle in Sunday night's clash with the Chicago Bears. The former Bengal was listed as doubtful, so the latest update won't surprise fantasy managers. However, with NFL Media's Ian Rapoport also reporting Mixon is "week-to-week," nobody can say for sure if he'll return when the Texans play the Jags in Week 4. For those fortunate to have claimed Cam Akers off the waiver wire, he's a must-start in any fantasy format. While there's a chance Dare Ogunbowale gets Akers' leftovers out of the backfield, he doesn't offer the same upside for fantasy managers.

According to NFL Media's Ian Rapoport, the Chargers are optimistic quarterback Justin Herbert (ankle) will be available for Sunday's game versus the Pittsburgh Steelers. The signal-caller is battling a high-ankle sprain, which is never an easy injury for anyone. However, he's currently questionable, so there's still a chance he'll be out there after missing practice on Wednesday and Friday (and logging a limited session on Thursday). Herbert has played better than most expected through the first two contests of the 2024-25 campaign, throwing for 274 yards, three touchdowns, and one pick while completing 67.4% of his attempts. On the other hand, even if he's available, the injury could still impact his abilities on the field versus a capable Steelers defense. With that in mind, managers should consider another fantasy quarterback for Week 3. Herbert will test the ankle during warmups. But if he can't suit up, Easton Stick will presumably be under center. Unfortunately, Stick's presence may not be good news for Ladd McConkey and Quentin Johnston. Yet, it may mean more rushing chances for J.K. Dobbins.

Denver Broncos kicker Wil Lutz should be on the waiver wire in all fantasy leagues, let alone anywhere near a starting lineup for Week 3 action. Through the first two weeks of the 2024 season, Lutz ranks as the No. 21 fantasy kicker despite being perfect on all of his kicks. He has made all five of his field-goal opportunities and is only extra-point attempt. The 30-year-old has been pretty reliable in his eight years in the NFL with an 85.5% success rate on his field-goal tries, but the problem is that Denver's offense is one of the worst in the league in the early going. They are averaging just 263 yards of total offense and 13 points a game with rookie quarterback Bo Nix under center. It's still early, so Nix and the Broncos' offense could improve as the season wears on, but based on what we've seen through the first two weeks, they just aren't giving Lutz enough tries to make him fantasy relevant.
From RotoBaller
Denver Broncos wide receiver Josh Reynolds (Achilles) was on the Week 3 injury report but practiced in full on Thursday and Friday and will not carry a designation into Sunday's road contest versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Reynolds surprisingly leads Denver with 138 receiving yards on nine receptions (13 targets) through the first two weeks in his first year with the team, but that doesn't mean we're recommending him as a flex play this weekend. The Broncos offense, which is being led by rookie quarterback Bo Nix, has averaged just 13 points (fourth-fewest) and 263 yards (fifth-fewest) through their first two contests. Things should be slightly easier against Tampa's D on Sunday, but fantasy managers just shouldn't have much confidence in this offense at all. Rookie Devaughn Vele (ribs), who had eight targets in Week 1, is also returning after sitting out the Week 2 loss to the Steelers.

Jacksonville Jaguars kicker Cam Little is best left out of starting lineups in a Week 3 matchup with the Buffalo Bills on Monday Night Football. The rookie kicker has put up seven points in each of the first two weeks. In a matchup between a good defense and a struggling offense, Little's upside is greatly limited. His best chance to reach double digit fantasy points is the Jaguars move the ball, but settle for field goals often, as it will likely be hard for the offense to score touchdowns on the Bills defense. The rookie has shown capable with a combination of range and accuracy, but plenty of NFL kickers offer that level of skill at the position with better matchups this week than Little. In a less than ideal matchup with the Bills, fantasy managers should be looking for other kicker options on the waiver wire in Week 3.
From RotoBaller
Carolina Panthers tight end Tommy Tremble (back, hamstring) doesn't carry an injury designation into the Week 3 contest at Allegiant Stadium on Sunday against the Las Vegas Raiders. Tremble missed the Week 1 loss to the New Orleans Saints before making his season debut in last week's loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, when he played two fewer snaps than rookie Ja'Tavion Sanders and caught three passes for 23 yards. The 24-year-old was limited in practice all week and is ready for his second game of the season. Tremble could see more snaps on offense this week as he's another week removed from his injuries, and he should have more upside now that veteran quarterback Andy Dalton is taking over for Bryce Young, but Tremble should still not be a realistic starting candidate for any fantasy managers in Week 3.
From RotoBaller
The Jacksonville Jaguars defense/special teams unit is not a smart play in Week 3 against the Buffalo Bills on Monday Night Football. Josh Allen and the Bills offense have been great so far, with Allen's dual-threat ability and James Cook out of the backfield leading the way. The defense hasn't given up a lot of points through two weeks, where they faced the Miami Dolphins and Cleveland Browns, but they haven't forced any turnovers and are middle of the pack with five sacks. Given Allen is hard to sack, they will have to rely on turnovers to muster a decent fantasy showing. With the Bills playing more conservative and running the ball more but still scoring plenty of points, it will be a tall task for the Jags to have much success on defense, both from a real life and a fantasy perspective. Look to the waiver wire for Week 3 to replace the Jaguars D/ST against the Bills.
From RotoBaller
Las Vegas Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby (ankle) is listed as questionable for the Week 3 contest at Allegiant Stadium on Sunday against the Carolina Panthers after being limited in practice all week, but he's expected to suit up, according to The Athletic's Tashan Reed. In addition to Crosby being questionable, linebacker Divine Deablo (concussion, oblique) is out, while cornerback Decamerion Richardson (hamstring) is doubtful and defensive linemen Tyree Wilson (knee) and Christian Wilkins (knee) are questionable. Vegas' defense is a little beat up going into a smash spot against the 0-2 Panthers, who have already benched last year's first overall pick Bryce Young in favor of Andy Dalton under center. The Raiders defense/special teams unit is still a top-10 fantasy option this week, and Crosby needs to be locked into all starting IDP lineups.
From RotoBaller
Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor confirmed on Saturday that wide receiver Tee Higgins (hamstring) is good to go to make his 2024 debut in Week 3 on Monday night against the Washington Commanders. Higgins injured his hamstring in practice in the lead-up to the season-opener against the New England Patriots and was forced to sit the first two weeks. The 25-year-old is now recovered, though, and it doesn't sound like he'll be limited at all in his return to the lineup. It's bad news for any fantasy managers that were planning to start wideout Andrei Iosivas as a flex or tight end Mike Gesicki as a TE sleeper. In terms of Higgins' fantasy value, it's fair to temper expectations in his first game while coming off an injury, but he should at least garner WR4/flex attention against a Commanders defense that has allowed the most half-PPR fantasy points to receivers through the first two weeks.
From RotoBaller
Miami Dolphins running back Jeff Wilson Jr. (oblique) was removed from the team's final injury report on Friday and will be active for the Week 3 contest on Sunday on the road at Lumen Field against the Seattle Seahawks. Wilson picked up a minor oblique injury in last Thursday's loss to the division-rival Buffalo Bills and was limited in practice on Wednesday before being full go on Thursday and Friday. Raheem Mostert (chest) is doubtful to play this weekend, so both Wilson and rookie Jaylen Wright should see more touches behind De'Von Achane, albeit in an offense now being run by quarterback Skylar Thompson. With Mostert out in Week 2, Wilson played only 14% of the offensive snaps and caught both of his targets for 12 yards. Wright is the better long-term upside stash in deeper fantasy leagues, and Wilson won't be a starting option this Sunday, even with Mostert likely out again.
From RotoBaller
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Christian Kirk has been a huge disappointment so far this season and may struggle to reverse his fortunes against the Buffalo Bills. Kirk has only managed one catch in each game -- a 30-yard catch in Week 1 and a one for a loss of a yard in Week 2. He seems to have fallen down the pecking order behind newcomers Brian Thomas Jr. and Gabe Davis and even had less targets than tight end Evan Engram's injury replacement Brenton Strange last week. Given Jacksonville's rough start on offense and the lack of a clear top receiver, it is worth keeping Kirk for now to see if he turns things around, but starting him in Week 3 would be an unwise move. Fantasy managers should wait until he shows any signs of fantasy life before putting him back in their flex spots. As a struggling receiver with a less-than-ideal matchup, it is best to keep Kirk on the bench against the Bills.
From RotoBaller
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Gabe Davis is a risky flex play in Week 3, but a revenge game with the Buffalo Bills offers some unique upside if fantasy managers believe in that type of thing. Davis has been a boom-or-bust receiver his entire career, but he does currently lead the Jaguars in targets and is tied for the team lead in receptions with six. If the Jaguars offense can get it going on Monday night, he could be in line for a huge game. It is also just as likely he puts up a dud, but that is what fantasy managers signed up for when they drafted the former Bill. There are definitely safer plays, but Davis has interesting upside as a WR3/flex. While the Bills defense is better against the pass than the run, it is at least worth considering the veteran receiver for starting lineups in Week 3.
From RotoBaller
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. is a solid flex play on Monday night against the Buffalo Bills. The rookie receiver leads the team in receiving yards so far on a whopping 23.5 yards per catch, showing why he was a first round pick. His big-play ability is his greatest strength, a great skill for fantasy managers to look for in their flex receivers. Against the Cleveland Browns in Week 2, he led the team with 94 yards on just two receptions. He only has six catches so far, but that is tied for the team lead with Gabe Davis. The LSU product is more of a long-term asset than a short-term asset given his expected improvement as a rookie and the Jaguars early struggles on offense, but he's still a decent option to put into lineups in the short-term. The Bills aren't an amazing matchup but shoot for upside and start BTJ in Week 3.
From RotoBaller
According to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler, Houston Texans running back Joe Mixon (ankle) is considered "week-to-week." Dameon Pierce (hamstring) has already been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game versus the Minnesota Vikings. While Mixon is still officially classified as doubtful, the Texans already expect he won't be out there while hoping to get him back for the Week 4 matchup against the Jags, depending on how he responds to treatment. The former Bengal had a monster Week 1 outing against the Colts, so it's a tough blow for fantasy managers. With that said, Cam Akers has already seen a surge in interest from those looking for a streaming option this week. However, he's likely already been scooped off the waiver wire in most leagues. Dare Ogunbowale could see a few additional touches in Week 3. Unfortunately, he doesn't offer the same upside as Akers.
From RotoBaller
Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Brenton Strange could be a solid play for fantasy managers in a pinch when he faces the Buffalo Bills on Monday Night Football. With Evan Engram officially ruled out, the second-year tight end has a chance to improve on his three catch, 65 yard performance last week against the Cleveland Browns. Similar to the Browns, the Bills are better against the pass than the run, so Trevor Lawrence may not be asked to do too much, but at a weak fantasy position, managers can do much worse than Strange. It's not the greatest matchup for Strange, considering the Bills held stud tight end Trey McBride to just five catches for 30 yards in Week 1, but he has a decent chance of putting up at least a satisfactory performance for fantasy managers. Strange serves as a solid injury replacement in Week 3 despite the less than ideal matchup with the Bills.
From RotoBaller
Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Evan Engram (hamstring) won't play on Monday night against the Buffalo Bills. The 30-year-old hasn't practiced all week after injuring his hamstring ahead of the Week 2 clash with the Browns, although the Jags are hopeful he will return for the team's next contest against the Houston Texans. As a result, Brenton Strange will likely fill the void in the lineup, with the 23-year-old coming off a three-catch, 65-yard outing versus Cleveland. However, that type of production won't be enough to earn Strange a spot in most fantasy lineups. The same can be said for Luke Farrell, the No. 3 tight end on the depth chart, who had two grabs for 12 yards in Week 2.

The Cleveland Browns are believed to be evaluating available quarterbacks in anticipation that the NFL will push to suspend quarterback Deshaun Watson for violating the personal conduct policy, according to Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk. While the league said it won't place him on leave, there is now a growing sense that they will pursue and obtain a suspension for Watson before the 2024 season ends. Watson, who was previously suspended for 11 games back in 2022, now faces a new lawsuit and another round of potential discipline after being accused of sexual assault and battery in a complaint filed on September 9. The 29-year-old has led the Browns to a 1-1 start, completing 58.3 percent of his passes for 355 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions. With Cleveland bracing for its quarterback to be suspended, the team is now looking at potential options to replace him as they hope to contend for a spot in the 2024 playoffs. Even with Jameis Winston and Dorian Thompson-Robinson on their roster, the Browns are evaluating all of their options.

The New England Patriots could receive calls from several teams interested in acquiring cornerback Jonathan Jones, according to ESPN's Dan Graziano. Several teams reportedly contacted the Patriots about Jones during the offseason, and those conversations could be re-kindled closer to the deadline if New England doesn't anticipate making the playoffs. Graziano mentioned the Falcons as a top landing spot, with the Chiefs, Ravens, and Steelers all potentially interested, too. Jones, currently in his ninth season, has played in all three games this year, registering 18 tackles and one forced fumble. PFF has given him a 71.0 grade on defense so far.

New York Giants wide receiver Jalin Hyatt refuted the idea that he told the team to give him more snaps or trade him. His comments were a response to a report from Jordan Raanan of ESPN, who claimed Hyatt felt that "if the Giants weren't going to use him, they should trade him." However, when speaking to Tom Canavan of the Associated Press on Friday, Hyatt clarified, "I didn't say that. I don't know where that came from, but that's false. I love being here. Whatever that rumor was, it's not true at all." The Giants selected Hyatt with an early third-round pick in 2023. Since then, he has caught 23 passes for 373 yards (all in 2023). He will continue to operate behind Malik Nabers, Wan'Dale Robinson, and Darius Slayton going forward.

Cleveland Browns pass rusher Myles Garrett (foot) is dealing with the same injury to both his feet, per ESPN's Daniel Oyefusi. He might require surgery in the future, but for now, he's playing through the issue. The 28-year-old continues to dominate in 2024, racking up five tackles, two sacks, and two forced fumbles through two games. He is one of the top defenders in the entire NFL, so Browns fans will be happy to hear that he's pushing through injury to stay on the field.
