As you would expect, Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski will be suiting up for the New England Patriots, with most of the inactives lists being what we would have expected to see.
Some interesting notes from a fantasy football perspective, however, come from the New Orleans Saints and Pittsburgh Steelers.
The Saints will be sitting wide receivers Nick Toon and Kenny Stills, so rookie wideout Brandin Cooks, who is a Rookie of the Year front-runner coming into the season, could be heavily involved in the team’s offense. In Pittsburgh, wide receivers Martavis Bryant and Lance Moore are inactive, so look for second-year player Markus Wheaton to get his fair share of targets.
