NFL Week 2 Risers and Fallers | Dynasty Stock Up/Down

Player Discussion

Week 2 was chalked full of injuries, so win or loss, if you survived with healthy players, that could be a win for your season. After Week 1, many owners overreact, but Week 2 is another set of data.

3 Players Stock Up

TreVeyon Henderson | RB | New England Patriots | Age: 23.9

In TreVeyon Henderson’s 2026 debut, he dominated the workload in the Patriots backfield. His 16 carries vastly outweighed Rhamondre Stevenson’s 6 carries. Henderson turned those 16 carries into 76 rushing yards and a touchdown....

Rashod Bateman | WR | Baltimore Ravens | Age: 26.8

After a pretty miserable Week 1, Rashod Bateman stepped up in Week 2. In Ja’Kobi Lane and Zay Flowers’ absence, Bateman established himself as Lamar Jackson’s most dynamic receiver. He rarely came off the field against the Saints, and Bateman turned 9 targets into 7 receptions, 88 receiving yards, and a touchdown....

Dalton Kincaid | TE | Buffalo Bills | Age: 26.9

Kincaid led the Bills in targets against the Lions. After racking up 130 receiving yards Week 1, Kincaid accumulated 95 receiving yards and a touchdown Week 2.....

3 Players Stock Down

Jordan Addison | WR | Minnesota Vikings | Age: 24.6

After a nothing-burger Week 1, Addison grabbed 2 catches on 5 targets for 21 yards. Until something changes, Addison is unstartable....

Luther Burden III | WR | Chicago Bears | Age: 22.7

Burden’s stock won’t get a boost anytime soon it seems. Caleb Williams went down with a hamstring injury. Tyson Bagent is a solid backup QB, but I can’t imagine Burden turns into a fantasy stud with Bagent....

Kyle Pitts | TE | Atlanta Falcons | Age: 25.9

His main culprit to blame is the Falcons revolving door at QB, and there is no light on the horizon. Even if Tua Tagavailoa gets healthy, he wouldn’t offer much of a boost. Hopefully, Michael Penix Jr. can return at some point this season.....
