MIAMI, Sept. 8 (UPI) -- Ja'Marr Chase leads my Top 50 fantasy football wide receiver rankings for Week 1 of the 2026 NFL season.
CeeDee Lamb, Puka Nacua, Justin Jefferson and A.J. Brown are my other Top-5 options for the slate of season openers. Tee Higgins, DeVonta Smith, Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Amon-Ra St. Brown and Zay Flowers are inside the Top 10 of my list.
Make sure to set your starting lineups before 8:20 p.m. EDT Wednesday, when the Seattle Seahawks host the New England Patriots in the first game of the 2026-27 campaign. Continue to monitor reports leading into the next wave of games, as injuries and other developments could impact your lineup.
My weekly rankings are based on potential role in offense, likely game script, previous performance and strength of opponent. They will be adjusted throughout Week 1.
