Aaron Rodgers struggles in Week 3 fantasy rankings amid shaky start
Summary

As Week 3 approaches, Aaron Rodgers ranks 20th among quarterbacks in PFN's fantasy rankings. He has thrown 79 times in two games, averaging 5.2 yards per attempt with one touchdown. The matchup against Pittsburgh may attract some interest due to a high-scoring game last season, but experts advise against starting him given his current form. Malik Willis also faces challenges, ranking 18th after poor offensive showings. He has more sacks than rush attempts this season and is not seen as a viable fantasy option against Kansas City. Both quarterbacks could struggle to meet fantasy expectations this week.
