Daily brief, Thu Sep 24 2026 (Week 3)

What changed

• Zay Flowers practiced and is questionable rather than out. Jayden Daniels (The Dirty's quarterback) is still doubtful with the dislocated elbow.
• The two matchups now look very different: we project 156 to 102 over The Dirty, but only 156 to 150 over Dude. Dude is the game that decides the week.

Decisions

• Bijan Robinson starts tonight at Green Bay as planned. Why: he locks at kickoff and no bench running back is close to him, even with his snap share down to 51 percent.
• Still holding the last receiver spot open between Fannin, Flowers and Brian Thomas Jr. Why: the Dude matchup is close, which favors the highest median projection rather than the safest floor, and Friday's practice report tells us whether Flowers is really back.
• No adds. Why: nothing available improves a lineup that already projects 156.

Watching

• Tonight 5:15: Bijan at Green Bay.
• Friday practice report for Flowers. Baltimore at Dallas still has the week's highest total.
• Brian Thomas Jr. keeps climbing: 54 percent of snaps and 31 percent of Jacksonville's targets, against New England on Sunday morning.

Shane

• Nothing needed.
