Fantasy Football Start/Sit Advice for Week 8: Key Players to Consider
Fantasy football managers face tough decisions regarding their lineups, particularly when it comes to starting or sitting players. This week's advice focuses on several notable waiver wire pickups, including Jonah Coleman, Antonio Williams, and Omar Cooper Jr.
Jonah Coleman has emerged as a significant player for the Denver Broncos, returning from injury to lead the team's backfield in snaps during their recent victory over the Cardinals. He recorded 9 carries for 54 yards and 2 receptions for 15 yards. Broncos head coach Sean Payton acknowledged the need to increase Coleman's touches, indicating his growing role in the offense.
With Terry McLaurin sidelined for the season, Antonio Williams is expected to take on a larger role in the Washington Commanders' offense. Williams has shown promise with 18 receptions for 205 yards and 1 touchdown this season. His snap count has increased significantly, suggesting he could become a reliable option in the passing game.
Omar Cooper Jr. has also made a strong impression since returning from injury, achieving over 100 receiving yards and a touchdown in both of his last two games. Although he is not the primary target for the Jets, his performance indicates potential for a more prominent role moving forward.
