10 Fantasy Football Sleepers for Week 2
Whether Week 1 went your way or not, you should know about these potential Week 2 difference-makers.

Isaiah Crowell, RB, Cleveland Browns

Crowell's potential is really up to the injury status of Ben Tate, who left the Week 1 tilt against the Pittsburgh Steelers with a knee injury.

Tate's penchant for injury makes both Crowell and Terrance West somewhat promising options at the end of nearly any bench. However, West is already owned in 80% of ESPN leagues. Crowell is owned in just 0.6%.

Crowell turned two of his five carries into touchdowns, which is a great sign for his upside. West is obviously the safer bet because he appears to be in line for the starter's workload, but Crowell and the Browns face the Saints at home next week.

Drew Brees is infamously not as good on the road - especially outdoors - so the Browns could be keeping the ball on the ground with a mixture of both rookie runners.

Monitor Tate's situation, but Cleveland should look to grind down the clock and take advantage of Brees' issues outdoors, making Crowell a true sleeper option headed into Week 2.
