Raiders Put Anusiem on IR; Saints Blank Loss Signals Trouble
The Las Vegas Raiders placed Chigozie Anusiem on the reserve/injured list Saturday, while the Saints suffered a 34-0 loss that left little working in their favor.
The Las Vegas Raiders made the move to put Chigozie Anusiem on the reserve/injured list on Saturday, thinning out an already thin depth chart. That's the kind of roster crunch that forces you to get creative with your waiver wire moves.
Meanwhile, the Saints got absolutely demolished. Not a lot went right for the Saints in their 34-0 loss, which tells you everything you need to know about where they stand heading into the season. When you're getting blanked that badly, your fantasy assets are basically worthless that week.
Two wide receivers impressed in preseason game No. 2, but without knowing which team or names, that's just noise. What matters is the Raiders' injury situation and the Saints' complete collapse.
