On today's episode, Ringer Fantasy Football Show, players to add after week two, entering week three. Craig, what do we got?

Craig Horlbeck (1:42)

Well, Caleb Williams is out. Jayden Daniels is out.

Chargers tight ends are out. Dallas Goddard out multiple weeks. The Pennix is in. Plus, Browns wide receivers and another Browns update about Hi-Rocks.

Danny Heifetz (1:56)

That was good. You just nailed that.

Craig Horlbeck (1:59)

Thanks.

Danny Heifetz (2:00)

After the break.

This episode is presented by Verizon. Let me tell you all about Verizon's new Simplicity Plan. You get one plan, one price, just $30 a line per month, even for a single line. So while everyone is running four trade analyzers before offering a backup tight end, Verizon said one plan, one price. Sometimes the simplest move is the best one, like the Simplicity Plan. Head to verizon.com today. For new customers who switch to Verizon, $30 per line includes auto pay and switch discount. Additional taxes, fees and terms apply.

Welcome to The Ringer Fantasy Football Show. My name is Danny Heifetz. I'm joined by Danny Kelly and Craig Horlbeck. We are going over all the players you need to add after week two, entering week three for the NFL season. Emails, fantasy court emails for Power Hour on Wednesday. Emails, trivia questions here. So it's going to work. We're going to go position by position. We're going to give the top pick from a position. And then like the waiver wire, only one of us gets them. So we'll do a trivia tiebreaker and then we'll figure it out. We'll try to help you figure out which positions and which players that each position out of waivers. It's not that complicated. I promise you'll figure it out. Emails at Ringer Fantasy Football at gmail.com.

Send us those. A lot of players got hurt this week. Caleb Williams, Jayden Daniels, Saquon Barkley, JK. Dobbins, Rico Dowdell, Judarian Price, Jonathan Brooks, the whole Mike Evans, Jayden Reed. There's a range of brutal out for the season. The boo-boos and everything in between. We will go with running backs, but we do have to start with Caleb Williams, who I thought was getting carted off with like a torn ACL. I would not see him play football for a year.

To our own Tom Palacero here at the Ringer, posting that Caleb Williams avoided any major injury to his hamstring Sunday. Test confirmed. And the team is not even ruling Caleb Williams out for next week's game on Monday night football against the Eagles.

Craig Horlbeck (4:07)

Well, Ben Johnson then said that he's planning for him to miss some time.

Danny Heifetz (4:11)

Yes.

Craig Horlbeck (4:12)

So in theory could be practice.

Danny Heifetz (4:14)

He'll miss a week or two. And now so, DK, what do you make of Caleb Williams going from a fallen hero to now kind of a meme where everyone's like, Oh, look, it's like my dog when he gets back from the vet and it cost me $800 and he's fine.

Danny Kelly (4:27)

Yeah. The most popular meme on socials today was basically me stubbing my toe. And it's like a picture of Caleb Williams like getting carted off, cold, like pumping his fist, like, you know, crying and whatnot.

Not maybe, you know, look, it's easy to make fun of that. In the moment, I'm sure he thought it was hurt really badly.
