Good morning.
What a wild Sunday… tons of fantasy flops, Lamar Jackson’s likely out for the year, the Bucs won without completing a single pass, and, of course, we had some MINSHEW MAGIC.🔥

Raiders RB Mike Washington Jr. (17.5%) totaled 25 carries, while Ashton Jeanty earned just two (though he did add three catches for 64 yards). Jeanty hasn’t hit 25 carries in a game this year and only did so once as a rookie. Plus, Washington has a 7.7% explosive run rate compared to a dismal 1.9% for Jeanty, per NBC Sports’ Kyle Dvorchak. Haters will say Big Mike wasn’t efficient enough on Sunday, but…
After the game, HC Klint Kubiak suggested this usage was a sign of things to come and not just a one-time punishment for Jeanty. Bid 25%+.
