Waiver Wire

Presented by

Week 2 fantasy football waiver-wire targets

What a week. We should have known it was going to be a wild one as soon as the Chiefs upset the Patriots on Thursday night, but the first Sunday of the NFL season definitely did not disappoint. Plenty of big-name fantasy players disappointed, but that's the way the cookie crumbles in this fake game based on a game we all cherish so dearly. On a sadder note, several stars suffered injuries in Week 1 as well, something we never want to see, but especially in Week 1. Hopefully, they can recover quickly while their backups pick up the slack. While there are two games still to come on the Week 1 slate (a Monday night double-header, which, attention league people with actual influence, you should do more often), below are 11 players to add on waivers this week. Stay tuned for Matt Harmon's waiver-wire deep dive and Matt Franciscovich's Week 2 streaming article (published Monday) for more under-the-radar options. Until then, here's who you need to be targeting.
