It’s easy to get caught up in fantasy football hype after one week of NFL action. Amidst the noise are indicators that will serve as signs for the rearview. Here are four fantasy assets you should keep an eye on in week two. 

Keon Coleman, WR (BUF)

Coleman put up a monstrous performance in week one. After hauling in eight catches for 118 yards with a touchdown, fantasy managers are left wondering if the receiver will finally live up to the hype. In the game, he saw 11 targets, the most of his career. This serves as a massive green flag, considering the biggest concern last year was his lack of targets. 

The reason the receiver is worth watching in week two is that he wasn’t the only Bills receiver to see success against the Ravens. Khalil Shakir and Joshua Palmer also saw nine targets each. If Coleman manages to put together another performance while being covered by Sauce Gardner, it might be time to buy in. 

Harold Fannin Jr., TE (CLE)

The third-round rookie burst onto the scene in week one by leading the Browns in targets. Coming into the season, many looked to the veteran tight end, David Njoku, as a late right tight end steal. With the emergence of the rookie, it appears the days of the Njoku, Flacco magic are over. 

The rookie is worth watching in week two because the Browns threw the ball 45 times last week. Fantasy managers need to see how the tight end targets adjust when that number comes down. If Fannin stays as involved as he did in week one, he instantaneously becomes a must-add.

Quinshon Judkins, RB (CLE)

Unfortunately, there are two Browns to keep tabs on in week two. Following an offseason filled to the brim with drama, the second-round rookie running back is planning on making his pro debut. Cleveland only managed to muster 49 yards on 24 rushing attempts in week one. If Judkins happens to be sitting on waivers, he’s worth adding before kickoff to see how things shake out in the Browns running back room. 

Kaleb Johnson, RB (PIT)


Pittsburgh Steelers running back Kaleb Johnson (20) gets ready to catch the Jets punt and run the ball, Sunday, September 7, 2025, in East Rutherford.

My oh my, what a disappointing debut it was for the rookie running back out of Iowa. Offseason reports suggested the rookie out of Iowa was struggling to rise in the depth chart. If week one told us anything, it’s that those reports were true. It’s not rare to see teams make rookies earn their workload. Considering this notion, many simply assumed Johnson would cement himself as the starter as the season went on. His lack of involvement in week one is a telltale sign that it may not be in the cards. 

While the Steelers’ running back room struggled as a whole in week one, Johnson only saw one touch throughout the entirety of the game. If his production fails to increase in week two, he may be a trendy drop candidate heading into week three.
