Trends


"Thielen, who was traded back to the Vikings in August, returns for his age-35 season, continuing to defy the odds and play productive football. Granted, he missed seven games in 2024, but Thielen remained Bryce Young's top target and posted his fourth top-25 fantasy campaign (PPG) in his past five seasons. He played his best ball late in the season, averaging 7.7 targets per game and producing at least 15 fantasy points in four of his final six outings. Thielen doesn't have a high ceiling and is likely to play a lesser role behind Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison, but he's still a reliable target (he's finished third in catch rate two seasons in a row). That's enough to keep him in the flex discussion while Addison serves a three-game suspension to open the season."


"Thielen has dropped a pass in consecutive games and has three drops overall this season, according to Pro Football Focus. He's arguably failed to secure more catchable balls than he has receptions (eight) this season. With Minnesota falling out of playoff contention, Thielen may see little playing time the rest of the season."

Trends


"Daniels is entering his second NFL season after what was arguably the greatest rookie season ever by a quarterback. The dual-threat playmaker was productive as a passer and even better as a rusher, ranking no lower than third among QBs in carries, rushing yards, rush TDs, carries inside the 5 and scrambles. Daniels produced 355.8 fantasy points, which trails only Cam Newton (370.3) for most by a rookie. He showed a high ceiling, having delivered 24-plus points in eight games, including his final five full regular-season outings). Entering Year 2 with an even better supporting cast that now includes Deebo Samuel Sr. and Laremy Tunsil, Daniels has a strong case to be the first QB off the board in fantasy drafts."


"According to JP Finlay of NBC Sports Washington, Daniels avoided any fractures to his non-throwing arm when he sustained a gruesome-looking injury when he was sacked midway through the fourth quarter of the blowout loss. The Commanders are still in the process of collecting more information on Daniels' injury, and Quinn anticipates that the team will have a clearer timeline for the signal-caller's return by Wednesday or Thursday. At this stage, the Commanders aren't ready to rule Daniels out for the season, but he appears to be a strong bet to be moved to injured reserve, which would keep him sidelined for at least four games. Marcus Mariota came on in relief of Daniels against the Seahawks and is in line to make his fourth start of the season in this Sunday's game versus the Lions."

Jayden Daniels' passing yards per attempt has increased by 80.23% over the past 6 weeks.
