Fantasy Football: 12 waiver wire targets for Week 2 of 2023 NFL season

Here are 12 players to consider adding off the waiver wire in your fantasy football league this week.

Week 1 of the 2023 NFL season is in the books!

You know what that means … PANIC! 

No, seriously, both with our real-life favorite teams and our fantasy football teams, it can be easy to overrate (both negatively and positively) to a one-game sample size to begin the season.

It’s important to not give up on a player too quickly. On the other hand, sometimes a huge Week 1 performance can later turn out to be fool’s gold. There’s a balance, one that fantasy football managers have to try to find this week as they weigh their roster options after Week 1.

To help fantasy football managers attempt to improve their rosters going into Week 2, we’ve put together a list of 12 waiver wire targets with options at running back, wide receiver, quarterback and tight end.

Each player’s rostered percentage in ESPN fantasy football leagues is listed in parentheses. Ready? Let’s get to the list!
