The 2025 NFL preseason is here and so is DFS! Friday’s slate will feature a trio of matchups as the Detroit Lions visit the Atlanta Falcons, the Cleveland Browns face the Carolina Panthers, and the New England Patriots play host to the Washington Commanders.
As a refresher, all players cost the same to roster in preseason games at FanDuel and with good reason. These early exhibition matchups in particular require a bit more prep for DFS considering who actually takes the field for their respective teams. These are vital moments for coaching staffs to evaluate backups/fringe roster players ahead of the August 26 roster deadline, so don’t expect the likes of Bijan Robinson or Jayden Daniels to suit up on Friday.
