Fantasy Football Early Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups: Bryce Young is an option if you need a QB after Caleb Williams injury
We go over some early fantasy football waiver wire pickups going into Week 3.
Week 3 of the 2026 NFL season is approaching, and fantasy football managers are looking for waiver wire pickups to bolster their teams. One option that could be worth considering is Bryce Young, the quarterback for the Carolina Panthers. Young has already made an impact in the first two weeks of the season, with 24.08 fantasy points against the Falcons in Week 2.
With Caleb Williams dealing with a hamstring injury, Young could provide a reliable backup option for your team. The Panthers' passing game features talented receivers such as Tetairoa McMillan, Jalen Coker, and Darren Waller, who could provide Young with plenty of opportunities to succeed.
