Fantasy football is officially back as it is Week 1, meaning it’s time for starts and sits.

Oh, how we have missed football season. The time has come to celebrate as Thursday night begins the NFL season once and for all, meaning that it’s time for fantasy football as well. If you joined me last year for our weekly starts and sits, then welcome back. If not, we are happy to have you!

The goal is always to help you win your weekly matchups against friends, foes, families, or people that you may have never met. After all, that is the beautiful world of fantasy football. Thankfully this is Week 1, meaning that there is a clean slate and a chance to make a splash. Your team hasn’t angered you to the point of not knowing what to do, injuries haven’t cursed your team, and players that you passed on for others who underperform have not set in yet. All is good for teams right now.

Fantasy Football is back, and here are the best start/sit picks of Week 1

Instead of rambling on, why don’t we get to the main purpose of all this? The starts and sits for Week 1 consist of some dart throws, questionable starters, and those who feel automatic but may just have an incredible week. Let’s get started.

Note: Star players like Dalvin Cook and Travis Kelce will not be featured in these starts and sits.
