Nine weeks are down and nine remain in the 2021 NFL season. We're officially at the halfway point, and the back nine will begin with a Thursday night matchup between the Baltimore Ravens and the Miami Dolphins.
By this point in the year, fantasy managers are largely not starting the same squads they drafted. Injuries to players like Christian McCaffrey, Russell Wilson and Saquon Barkley affected many early-season lineups. Players like Nick Chubb and Denzel Mims are on the reserve/COVID-19 list.
Oh, and the Chicago Bears, Cincinnati Bengals, Houston Texans and New York Giants are on bye this week.
