For the third consecutive week, fantasy football managers will have to navigate some bye weeks, leading to their scouring the Week 8 fantasy football waiver wire for help.
Luckily, we have some options at each position for those of you who are doing just that, but first let’s take a look at the two teams who are on bye and the most fantasy-relevant players from both:
Kansas City Chiefs: QB Patrick Mahomes, RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire, RB Isiah Pacheco, WR JuJu Smith-Schuster, WR Marquez Valdez-Scantling, TE Travis Kelce
Los Angeles Chargers: QB Justin Herbert, RB Austin Ekeler, WR Mike Williams (injured), WR Keenan Allen, WR Joshua Palmer, WR DeAndre Carter, TE Gerald Everett.
Now that we have an idea of who needs to be replaced, let’s see some options for fantasy managers to replace them with (and some potential long-term solutions) via the fantasy football waiver wire in Week 8 of the 2022 campaign.
