McAlister's Deli Quick Bites:
-
Trey Lance (owned by riskybiznesss): Unfortunately, Lance was traded to Dallas, ending his time with the 49ers. It seems like the team took their shot with him, but things didn't work out. Time to find a new quarterback, riskybiznesss!
-
Brock Purdy (owned by droppinbombs88): Purdy showed promise in his limited appearance, scoring a touchdown and moving the offense smoothly. With Lance out of the picture, Purdy seems poised to have a strong sophomore season. Keep him on your team, droppinbombs88!
-
Austin Ekeler (owned by riskybiznesss): While Ekeler didn't have a standout performance in this game, he remains a reliable starter for the Chargers. Don't worry, riskybiznesss, Ekeler will still contribute significantly to your fantasy team.
Free Agent Spotlight:
Joshua Kelley from the Chargers displayed his potential as an option at running back with a remarkable 75-yard touchdown run in the first quarter. Kelley's performance makes him an attractive free agent pickup, especially with the Chargers searching for options behind starter Austin Ekeler. Keep an eye on Kelley for future fantasy success!
That's all for today's fantasy football highlights. The regular season is just around the corner, and it's time to start fine-tuning those rosters. Stay tuned for more exciting updates and remember, drafting a solid team is important, but a clever team name is essential!
