"He's benefiting in a huge way from the Colts' offensive rebirth, as he followed up his 29.5 PPR fantasy points in Week 2 with 32.8 points on Sunday, and he's now averaging 20 carries and 22.7 touches through three games. Taylor has had multiple explosive runs (10-plus yard carries) in each of his three contests for seven on the season, tied for the league's lead, and he has 61 more rushing yards than expected per Next Gen Stats."
"What a breakthrough by the third-year receiver, who became the first player to break the 40-point barrier in PPR scoring this season (career-best 40.9), carving up the Washington Commanders' zone-heavy defense. Tucker's nine targets easily paced Raiders receivers, and coming on the heels of the eight he had in Week 2, it seems he's becoming a larger part of their game plan."
Week 3 produced breakout fantasy performances, role changes after injuries, and unexpected quiet games from top players. Jonathan Taylor posted 32.8 PPR points, averaging 20 carries and 22.7 touches through three games while generating seven explosive runs and 61 more rushing yards than expected per Next Gen Stats, positioning him as an RB1. Tre Tucker delivered a career-best 40.9 PPR outing on nine targets and appears to be growing into a larger offensive role. Jordan Mason filled in for injured Aaron Jones Sr. and scored 23.6 fantasy points as Minnesota controlled tempo. Rosters and start rates shifted accordingly.
