Expert Note
View More NotesKenneth Gainwell is only a bench stash at this point. In Week 1, he played 45.6% of the snaps with only six touches and 18 total yards. Gainwell had only a 33.3% route share and a 3.6% target share in Week 1. Until his playing time increases, he's only a handcuff.
Player News

Fantasy Impact
This felt like the perfect time for Gainwell to make an impact with Tampa Bay falling behind 21-3 early, but it was Bucky Irving in the passing game out of the backfield who caught seven passes. Gainwell is a risky flex play for now in PPR leagues until we see him more involved.
