NFL Week 2 Recap

The Highlights

• The Arizona Cardinals achieved a dominant victory over the Los Angeles Rams, winning 41-10. Kyler Murray threw for 266 yards and three touchdowns, while rookie Marvin Harrison Jr. broke out for two touchdown receptions and 130 yard performance.
• The Buffalo Bills triumphed over the Miami Dolphins winning 31-10, but the game was overshadowed by Dolphins' quarterback Tua Tagovailoa's third concussion of his NFL career.
• The Kansas City Patriots Chiefs won a nail bitter with some help from the referees bringing them to 2-0 to start the season. It's worth noting for the Bengals that Ja'Marr Chase played in this game though did not have much of an impact with 4 recs for 35 yds.

Waiver Wire Watchlist

Injuries to Monitor

The 2024 season has already been riddled with injuries. Here's some key injuries worth keeping an eye on.

• Tua Tagovailoa's (QB, Miami Dolphins) injury against the Bills is a major concern, as it could have long-term implications for his career though he has stated retirement is out of the question for now.
• Jordan Love (QB, Green Bay Packers) with a knee injury and reportedly limited at practice this Thursday is another to monitor.
• Cooper Kupp (WR, Los Angeles Rams) left the game with an ankle injury, which will need monitoring as it could impact his availability in upcoming games. As of now there are no plans to place him on IR.

Player Spotlight: Brock Bowers is he really HIM?

The Las Vegas Raiders Rookie Tight End Brock Bowers is having good start to his NFL career. Take a look at his stats so far in two weeks:

After getting drafted 13th overall in the first round one could argue that expectations were high. Brock certainly is making a name for himself early on. We'd love to see him get his first TD of the season and continue to perform before we can call him, "him".
