Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Week 3: Smartest Matchups to Exploit, Sleeper Plays and More

Week 2 of the NFL season brought a lot of injuries to key players. A ton of them, in fact. And for some fantasy football managers, it's time to find some other players to fill lineup spots for the next few weeks (or potentially longer).

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey and New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (out for season) both got injured in Week 2. New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas and San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle missed Week 2 due to injuries. These are just a small number of the players injured in the first couple of weeks.
