Fantasy Football: Percentage of carries for Jeremiyah Love in Week 3, plus 9 more key stats that may go overlooked

Of the Arizona carries for Jeremiyah Love, the third-highest percentage on the week for the rookie's third career game. Love had 21 carries after averaging 10 the first two weeks. Mike LaFleur has said he'll go with the hot hand in the past, but Tyler Allgeier was held to just two carries on the day, making it hard to believe it'll be close to a 50/50 split going forward for the top-five NFL Draft pick. The receiving would be the next step of the breakout, with Love still splitting passing-game work down the middle against the 49ers. Love did have a nice five receptions; it just came on five targets out of 52 passing attempts. If this workload sticks, he'll be posting RB1 numbers in his good matchups, and still RB2 numbers in the tough matchups Arizona has coming up.

George Kittle 's route share after Week 3 as he's back to full-go for the first time this season. With Mike Evans , De'Zhaun Stribling, Demarcus Robinson , Christian Kirk , Ricky Pearsall , and Jake Tonges all injured, there aren't many other options. After Evans left the game on Sunday, Kittle had five of the remaining 10 targets, ending his day with six receptions, 82 yards and two touchdowns. With Deebo Samuel Sr. playing more of a gadget WR role, he shouldn't eat too much into the vast amount of targets available (zero targets on Sunday). He may not be at full strength, but Kittle has always been the No. 1 TE in efficiency. The volume bump can make up for it.

Of Buffalo's RB carries this season have gone to James Cook III, the highest rate in the NFL. Not Kenneth Walker , not Bijan Robinson , not Jahmyr Gibbs , but Cook. I get it's frustrating to see Josh Allen take goal-line attempts; however, Cook is, in fact, getting a higher percentage of them this season at 44% compared to 39% in 2025. He was still dominant last season. One area he hasn't capitalized on (yet) is the explosive touchdown runs. Is he failing to create explosive plays like last season? No, he's actually doing it at a higher rate with four explosive runs (20+ yards) resulting in zero touchdowns. Last season, he had nine the entire season, with five going for scores. Cook has great numbers in two of three games and the best is yet to come.
