Highest Red Flag % among top-24 QBs this week:

Justin Herbert (35.1%): (233 mentions last 7 days): Pressured 17 times and fumbled three times against the Raiders, and has two TD passes and three interceptions through two games. Analysts widely flag the schedule ahead: Buffalo, Seattle, Denver and Kansas City before the bye.

Baker Mayfield (33.3%): (188 mentions last 7 days): Lost all three of his fumbles in Week 1, and his five turnover-worthy plays tie for the most of any passer. Analysts flag a pressure-to-sack rate of almost 40%, saying when he gets pressured, bad things happen.

Drake Maye (31.4%): (247 mentions last 7 days): Has one TD pass and four interceptions through two games, and all four picks came on downfield passes. Also carries a 26.8 PFF grade under pressure. Analysts say he doesn't look anything like the MVP runner-up from a season ago.

Highest Red Flag % among top-24 RBs this week:

Omarion Hampton (23.4%): (132 mentions last 7 days): Fumbled in back-to-back games and logged route participation of 28.6% and 25.8% over the first two, almost half of last year's rate. Analysts say that leaves him exposed in negative game scripts, which they see as likely with the Chargers' upcoming schedule.

Aaron Jones (15.4%): (177 mentions last 7 days): Briefly left Week 2 with a knee injury after playing over 80% of snaps, drew zero targets, then sat out Wednesday's practice. Analysts widely flag his age and injury history, noting he appeared in just 12 games last season.

David Montgomery (14.2%): (104 mentions last 7 days): Got 6 carries for 10 yards in Week 2, all in the first half, with zero second-half touches as Houston trailed, and was out-carried by Woody Marks. Analysts widely flag his touchdown dependence and Houston's offensive line.

Highest Red Flag % among top-24 WRs this week:

Jameson Williams (13.2%): (77 mentions last 7 days): Has 6 catches on 13 targets for 78 yards, and drew four targets in Week 2 despite playing 97% of snaps and running 40 routes. Analysts flag Sam LaPorta's return, noting his fantasy points per game drop by 4 with LaPorta active.

Drake London (11.6%): (156 mentions last 7 days): Has six catches for 80 yards on 10 targets through two games with Cooper Rush at QB. Analysts see Michael Penix Jr. starting as the fix, but some flag that he's coming back from an ACL tear and say not to expect instant miracles.

Davante Adams (8.1%): (168 mentions last 7 days): Caught three passes for 26 yards in Week 1 and was kept off the field near the goal line, where analysts say he's usually had a lot of his chances. He stepped up in Week 2 with Puka Nacua out, but analysts question whether he can repeat it once Nacua returns.

Highest Red Flag % among top-12 TEs this week:

Only one TE had a Red Flag % above 5%, so I’ll just include a quick update on him and leave the rest out.

Travis Kelce (6.5%): (89 mentions last 7 days): Turns 37 in October, and his PPR points per game have dropped in each of the past three years. Also has a 5.8-yard average depth of target. Analysts question whether he keeps up his target share at 36, though leading the team in targets eases the concern for now.
