Fantasy Football Update

By: Owen Meyers

Breaking News!! Nico Collins is placed on (IR) after leaving the game in the second quarter with a (hamstring injury). He was injured during his 67 yard TD against the Bills on Sunday. This is not good for my fantasy team because he has had an outstanding  performance every week. Luckily AJ Brown is supposed to come back from a hamstring injury that happened during practice ahead of the Eagles week 2 game. 

How I won in fantasy in week 5 against Cooper Scott. I started by picking up Chase Brown from the waiver wire, which gave me a solid 16.4 points. Chuba Hubbard was also a huge factor in the victory because he gave me 17.5 points. I traded for Chuba because I was in desperate need for a RB 2. Travis Kelce started off the season slow but since their WR 1 is out with a torn ACL he has been a highlight for the Chiefs offense. I drafted Kelce for my third pick and have very high expectations and it is beginning to show as we get deeper into the season. I also picked up the Commander’s defense which gave me 14 points which also led me to a victory. Even though it was a tragedy that Nico Collins got injured he gave me 15.8 in the quarter and a half he played. Younghoe Koo was also a huge factor in my win over Cooper because he put up 15 points as a kicker. David Njoku and Dontayvion Wicks were one of the key reasons why Cooper’s team lost. They combined with a total of 6.4 points and were a huge disappointment for Cooper’s team. I am on a two week win streak and hopefully my team is still on the come up because there is a 200 dollar reward on the line.
