There has already been quite a bit of action throughout the NFL through the first two weeks of the season, and there will be plenty more in Week 3. So far this season, there have been quite a few teams and players who have surprised the league, and quite a few who have come up as major disappointments already. It will be interesting to see which players come through in Week 3 after disappointing starts to the season.

Every single year there are players that break out and there are players that end up not living up to expectations. Whether injuries get the best of them or they simply raised the bar too high the year before, they still end up getting a poor rep. There are quite a few players that are struggling through the first two weeks of the season, but will break out in Week 3.

Don’t be surprised to see quite a few big performances from players that are struggling to this point. These players are all NFL players for a reason, and they all have the potential to turn things around. Week 3 has quite a few good games that could give certainly players a bit of an edge as well.

Which five players should be watched in Week 3 as potential breakout players?
