NFL waiver wire targets for Week 3 include Shough and Wilson
Summary

As NFL teams prepare for Week 3, fantasy football managers are looking to bolster their rosters through the waiver wire. Key injuries to quarterbacks Jayden Daniels, Jaxson Dart, and Caleb Williams have created opportunities for new players like Tyler Shough and Marcus Mariota. Running back Emanuel Wilson of the Seattle Seahawks made a strong debut, while wide receiver Denzel Boston of the Cleveland Browns has quickly become a key contributor. Managers may need to adapt their lineups as the season progresses and injuries impact player availability.
