USA Today • • sports
Key Points:
- The Baltimore Ravens' offense has struggled recently, but wide receiver Zay Flowers has been a standout fantasy performer, with 8 catches for 137 yards and a touchdown in Week 7.
- Quarterback Lamar Jackson may return this week after a three-game absence due to an ankle injury, which could boost the Ravens' offense and benefit players like Flowers and running back Derrick Henry.
- Key wide receivers recommended for Week 8 fantasy football starts include Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Puka Nacua, CeeDee Lamb, Ja'Marr Chase, and Amon-Ra St. Brown.
- Several teams are on bye this week, including Houston, New Orleans, New York Giants, and San Francisco, affecting fantasy options.
- Rankings and player statuses should be double-checked before kickoff, as some players may have uncertain availability.
