Week 3 Fantasy Football Rankings: Wide Receivers

Puka Nacua is moving up the charts quickly.

Welcome to Week 3 of the fantasy football season!

It’s time to start thinking about setting your lineups, and we’re here to help with our initial fantasy player rankings! I’ve used a full-point PPR scoring system for these rankings, which you can use in coordination with the Week 3 edition of Start Em, Sit Em. At Sports Illustrated, we always have you covered!

At wideout, Ja’Marr Chase is still in the top 10 but in the bottom half with questions about Joe Burrow’s availability. Puka Nacua is now a low-end WR1 ahead of a Monday matchup in Cincinnati, and I love Amari Cooper this week against a Titans defense that’s great against the run but bad against opposing perimeter receivers.

Be sure to check back for updates … and good luck everyone!
