The 2023 NFL preseason is officially a wrap, folks! Though the preseason is generally a convoluted mess from which we can derive little meaningful analysis, it has its perks — the first of which is … football is back!

, folks! Though the preseason is generally a convoluted mess from which we can derive little meaningful analysis, it has its perks — the first of which is … football is back!

Consider the following. Rodgers will make his regular-season debut as a New York Jet against the Bills, who, despite a myriad of injuries to the secondary, allowed the second-fewest points per game in the 2022 season. This secondary is healthier heading into 2023 and ready to cause some problems in coverage for opposing quarterbacks. Then, he’ll face the Cowboys, who allowed the eighth fewest passing yards and led the league with a 25.6% pressure rate.

Even if Williams is technically back, fantasy managers should expect him to be eased back into a full workload slowly in his return, especially with the trust the coaching staff appears to have in teammate Samaje Perine. For comparison, Giants RB Saquon Barkley averaged 13.6 touches per game over his first five games returning from a torn ACL, compared to his career average of 20 touches per game.

Further perpetuating concerns about a potential slow start for Akers are a couple of tough opponents to start the season, with matchups against the 49ers, Bengals and Colts in the first four weeks. Outside of a potential strong start against the Seahawks, who struggled against the run in 2022, Akers is set to face three of the ten defenses that allowed 4.2 yards per carry or less last season, as well as two defenses ranked bottom-seven in fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs.

Even if 100% healthy, McLaurin might be off to a slow start with this difficult start to his schedule.Entering his second NFL season, there might not be a single player receiving more hype on social media than George Pickens. After all, he is a walking highlight reel, whether making plays in a meaningless training camp drill or making circus catches in live game action. However, that circus act might not hold up against the stiff competition Pittsburgh is set to face opening up the 2023 season.
