Ranking fantasy winners of Week 2
1. Alvin Kamara, RB, New Orleans Saints
The star of Sunday's hefty, 10-game 1 p.m. ET block, as well as the hot-starting Saints, Kamara scored 44.0 PPR fantasy points, his third-best single game score in his eight-year career. It was the sixth time he has scored at least 40 points in a game, tying him with Tyreek Hill for the most among active players and putting him two ahead of the next-closest active running back (Aaron Jones, 4). Kamara is having a grand time as part of Klint Kubiak's new offensive system, managing four runs of 10-plus yards in this game (after three last week), rushing for 20 yards over expected per NFL Next Gen Stats and averaging more than 5 yards per carry for the second consecutive week, his first performances at all with at least that average since Week 6 of 2022 and his first in back-to-back games since Weeks 7-8 of 2020. Kamara and the Saints get a tough assignment in the Philadelphia Eagles next, but it's tough to bet against them. After all, they've scored 91 points in their two season-opening victories, tied for the fourth most in history through a team's first two games of the season. -- Cockcroft
