Fantasy Impact: Lane was seeing some promising usage before exiting with his injury, having a touchdown nullified by holding, another endzone target just out of his reach, and an 11-yard gain on his one reception. The Ravens are now short on receivers unless Zay Flowers, who also exited with an injury, can come back for next week's game. In his absence, expect more work for Rashod Bateman, Chris Moore, and potentially fellow rookie Elijah Sarratt.

Ameer Abdullah ran four times for 32 yards and failed to gain a yard on his only catch in the Jaguars' 34-10 win over the Browns.

Fantasy Impact: Abdullah was efficient on the ground, having a long of just 12 yards, indicating that when he touched the ball, it was a decent chunk play. It's tough to trust him for fantasy, though, as he doesn't have quite enough involvement to be fantasy-viable.

Josh Cameron caught both of his targets for 20 yards and a touchdown in the Jaguars' 34-10 win over the Browns on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact: The rookie receiver had the wonderful experience of catching a touchdown in his first-ever regular-season game. However, it's hard to take much from it for fantasy, as the Jaguars' passing attack is incredibly spread out and Cameron is buried on the depth chart. His usage might trend up as the season goes along, and he's at least a name to monitor for dynasty formats. But don't expect anything big in the short term.

Travis Hunter had one catch for eight yards and one carry for three yards in the Jaguars' 34-10 win over the Browns on Sunday. On defense, he had one solo tackle.

Fantasy Impact: No matter if you play in offense only or in IDP leagues, Hunter is not a player you're happy with right now. His production and usage isn't that of a first-round NFL pick, especially at second overall. The Jaguars are content to use him as a gadget player, and until that changes, he needs to be off of fantasy radars unless you are in dynasty formats.

Cam Little made both of his field goal attempts and all four of his PATs in the Jaguars' 34-10 win over the Browns on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact: Little should be a nice kicker for those in need of one, or for those who have him, thanks to the firepower the Jags offense possesses. He will look to keep up his success next week against Denver.

The Jacksonville Jaguars D/ST shut down the Browns' offense on Sunday in the team's dominant 34-10 win. They ended the day with five sacks, a pick, and a fumble recovery.

Fantasy Impact: It was a great day for the Jags' defense in what was expected to be an easy matchup. They're worth streaming when the matchup is right, but they could be in for tough sledding against Denver next week.

Brenton Strange caught two of three targets for 23 yards and a touchdown in the Jaguars' 34-10 win over the Browns on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact: Strange was among ten other targeted receivers who were trying to feast off of an extremely small pie of 21 total targets. And he was one of the lucky ones with a touchdown. He should continue to see work as the top tight end for the offense, but things are so spread out that it might be hard to rely on him on a weekly basis.

Jakobi Meyers caught both of his targets for 40 yards and a touchdown in the Jaguars' 34-10 win over the Browns. He also ran once for two yards.

Fantasy Impact: Meyers didn't see a lot of targets, just two to be exact, but he made them count. Trevor Lawrence only threw the ball 21 times today, not counting throwaways, and ten different players received a target, so there wasn't much to go around. Hopefully Meyers will see more targets next week against Denver in what should be a more competitive game script.

Chris Rodriguez Jr. ran six times for 23 yards in the Jaguars' 34-10 Week 1 win over the Browns.

Fantasy Impact: Rodriguez wasn't involved much in the blowout win, carrying the ball only six times. It's possible the team wanted to see more of Tuten today than CRod, but that's purely speculation. As for now, it's hard to start Rodriguez until we know more about what his workload could look like on a weekly basis.

Trevor Lawrence completed 18-of-23 passes for 245 yards and four touchdowns in the Jaguars' 34-10 win over the Browns. He also ran twice for three yards.

Fantasy Impact: Lawrence played on easy mode against a Browns defense that just couldn't create stops. He had only five incompletions to four touchdowns on the day, a great ratio to have. With their win over the Browns, the Jags are the only AFC South team to clinch a win on Sunday. He faces a much tougher test against the Broncos next week.

Parker Washington caught five of six targets for 83 yards and a touchdown in the Jaguars' 34-10 win over the Browns.

Fantasy Impact: Washington answered the call of all the offseason hype with flying colors. He scored on a 30-yard bomb from Trevor Lawrence early on in the game and kept showing up to make plays afterwards. Expect Washington to continue to be a focal point in the offense, especially if Brian Thomas Jr. were to miss any time.

Bhayshul Tuten ran 15 times for 66 yards in the Jaguars' 34-10 win over the Browns on Sunday. He also caught his only target for 22 yards.

Fantasy Impact: Tuten led the Jags in rushing attempts in the win, but didn't have much to show in terms of fantasy scoring in half- or full-PPR formats. But to be fair, he was efficient in his touches, and it's likely that better days are ahead for the apparent Jags RB1.

The Cleveland Browns D/ST was outmatched in the team's 34-10 loss to the Jaguars, achieving just one sack in the blowout loss.

Fantasy Impact: It was a rough showing for the Browns, who were hoping that their defense would at least have some semblance of its form from last year. At least in Week 1, that was not the case in the slightest. They're firmly out of streaming consideration unless it's the best of matchups.

Andre Szmyt made his only PAT and field goal attempts in the Browns' 34-10 blowout loss to the Jaguars.

Fantasy Impact: Szmyt is going to have a low floor and low ceiling in Cleveland this year, in what is a rebuilding season for the team. Don't expect much this season.

Deshaun Watson completed 16-of-22 passes for 205 yards, a touchdown, and an interception in the Browns' 34-10 loss to the Jaguars on Sunday. He also ran six times for 38 yards.

Fantasy Impact: Watson struggled mightily all day, throwing an interception on the first drive and nearly losing a fumble later on. He took five sacks and plenty of hits, and 62 of his 205 yards came in the Browns' final drive in garbage time. It was a rough day at the office, and the drumbeat to replace him with Shedeur Sanders will only grow after this performance.

Jerry Jeudy caught two of four targets for 26 yards in the Browns' 34-10 loss to the Jaguars on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact: Jeudy's four targets tied him with Denzel Boston for second on the team behind KC Concepcion, but he didn't have much to show for it. Cleveland struggled to move the ball all day, leading to many short drives and little opportunity for the offensive players to get any momentum. Hopefully, things will turn more in a positive direction next week against the Bucs.

Denzel Boston caught two of four targets for 59 yards and a touchdown in the Browns' 34-10 loss to the Jaguars on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact: Boston had the Browns' only touchdown, though sadly it was in garbage time. His four targets tied with Jerry Jeudy for second on the team, an encouraging sign for his future usage as he gets further acclimated to the NFL game.

KC Concepcion caught four of five targets for 43 yards in the Browns' 34-10 loss to the Jaguars. He also ran the ball three times for 15 yards.

Fantasy Impact: While it wasn't a massive day, it was encouraging that Concepcion got touches as both a receiver and out of the backfield, showing the team wanted to get the ball in his hands. A loss is a loss, but brighter days should be ahead for Concepcion.

Harold Fannin Jr. caught two of three targets for 21 yards in the Browns' 34-10 loss to the Jaguars on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact: Fannin was held in check on Sunday, along with the rest of the Browns' offense. He will hope for better days next week against the Buccaneers.

Quinshon Judkins ran 12 times for 33 yards in the Browns' 34-10 loss to the Jaguars on Sunday. He also caught both of his targets for 17 yards.

Fantasy Impact: Judkins was held back by the Browns inept offensive showing, as everyone except Deshaun Watson and Denzel Boston was held under 10 PPR points, and those two got over that because of a bomb touchdown in garbage time. Judkins is the lead back, but his fantasy value is highly questionable unless something changes.
