Fantasy Plays: Players to Start and Sit for NFL Week 8

Associated Press  

The article focuses on several notable start and sit/start options for players in Week 8 of the NFL season. While Patrick Mahomes remains a top choice, his upside is capped by the style of play the Chiefs are playing, and his recent performances have been inconsistent. James Conner shines for the Cardinals with his consistent production, while Cedric Tillman emerges as a potential breakout option for the Browns. Cade Otton continues his impressive form for the Buccaneers, while Cole Kmet and Kyle Pitts remain reliable targets for the Commanders. However, players like Terry McLaurin and Colby Parkinson face significant challenges due to injuries and team circumstances.
