Which fantasy football players should you stash before Week 3?

Lucas Wencl breaks down five high-upside waiver wire stashes who are still available in the majority of fantasy football leagues—and could become much more expensive once their opportunities grow.

Malachi Fields could see an expanded role if Malik Nabers’ shoulder injury continues to limit him. Darren Waller is already emerging as a red-zone weapon in Carolina. Also, find out why Buccaneers rookie Ted Hurst may be the stash to make before his first breakout performance sends fantasy managers rushing to the waiver wire.
