Start 'Em, Sit 'Em For Week 3 Fantasy Football Lineups: Tyler Shough, Chuba Hubbard & More
Key Points:
- Tyler Shough (Saints) is a strong Week 3 fantasy QB start due to his high rushing volume, averaging 19.3 PPG and ranking as QB11, benefiting from a balanced rushing and passing role despite a tough matchup against the Raiders.
- Matthew Stafford (Rams) is a Week 3 QB sit because of a difficult matchup against the Broncos' strong defense, with a lowered projection to QB15 and a team total of just 20.9 points, especially if Puka Nacua is unavailable.
- Chuba Hubbard (Panthers) is a recommended Week 3 RB start as he assumes a larger role with Jonathon Brooks on IR, holding a 66% snap share and projecting as a high-end RB2 against the Browns.
- David Montgomery (Texans) is a buy-low RB option for Week 3 after a poor Week 2, benefiting from significant two-minute offense snaps and a favorable matchup against the Colts.
- Injury updates to monitor include Saquon Barkley (Eagles), Pittsburgh RBs (Dowdle and Warren), Denver RBs (Dobbins, Harvey, Coleman), Aaron Jones (Vikings), and Jadarian Price (Seahawks), all of whom could impact fantasy RB depth and starting options.
