I am bringing two players who can help you this week and two players who could help you in a few weeks, that may not have been targets this week.

Two Players For This Week:

Justice Hill – RB BAL (owned in 20% of ESPN leagues)

Despite his ownership doubling, he’s still available in a majority of ESPN leagues. Hill received 10 touches in the victory over Buffalo, with six of those being receptions and one going for a score. He also saw six targets in Week 1. It seems that Baltimore will get him more involved in the passing game, and he still seems to be a forgotten man in fantasy as he is the backup to King Henry. I’m looking at Hill as a nice PPR flex addition with the potential for more, especially in the event of a Derrick Henry injury.
