Let's. Freaking. Go.

As bummed as I am not to get to yell at @gdula.bsky.social every Thursday, this is a perfect pairing. I feel very lucky for the 10 years we got alongside each other.

Happy to see Brandon's great work being recognized AND that we get him and JJ back together again.
So pumped to announce that Brandon Gdula (@gdula.bsky.social) will be joining the Late-Round team in January. I worked with Brandon for years at numberFire/FanDuel -- he was my right-hand man. And now he's going to help enhance the content at Late-Round Fantasy Football. We're lucky to have him.

Need Tez Johnson to pull a Greg Dortch and whip out the "too small" celebration.

DJ Moore had 3 deep targets today (more than 15 yards downfield).

Has had multiple in 4 of past 5 games. Deep target share up to 27.5% since the bye. Was at 15.4% before.

D'Andre Swift played just 42.6% of the snaps today after losing a fumble.

It was his first time below 50.0% this year. Kyle Monangai was at 55.7%.
