The second week of the NFL season kicks off Thursday night with a compelling matchup between the Green Bay Packers and the Washington Commanders. Both teams made the playoffs last season, in addition to coming off impressive wins in Week 1. The Packers were dominant at home against the Lions, while the Commanders left no doubt that they were the better team against the Giants. Even in Week 2, this has the feel of a playoff preview.
If it’s too early in the season to bet on a matchup between two quality teams, playing DFS might be the better option for Thursday. That makes now the perfect time to sign up with Underdog Fantasy.

Underdog Fantasy offers multiple types of DFS games. The Pick’em game is similar to choosing the over/under on player props that you see at traditional sportsbooks. With this, you can choose up to eight players. Meanwhile, the Pick’em Champions allows you to do this while competing against other players. Finally, the Draft game enables you to pick a team and compete for prizes against other Underdog Fantasy players.
No matter what game you choose to play, here are three players in Thursday’s Packers vs Commanders game that you should consider targeting:
Daniels is arguably the top fantasy quarterback other than obvious targets like Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson. In Week 1, he threw for over 200 yards and ran the ball 11 times. He’s a threat to both pass and run for touchdowns, giving him huge fantasy upside.
There is virtually no competition for Jacobs in the Green Bay backfield. He got 19 carries in Week 1, and no one else on the team had more than one carry other than quarterback Jordan Love. Despite a modest 3.5 yards per carry against the Lions, Jacobs will get more than enough touches to post strong fantasy numbers and perhaps find the end zone.
He’s with a new team, but Samuel is the same guy he was with the 49ers. He had seven catches on 10 targets in Week 1, far more than any other Washington player. Also, the one time he was handed the ball as a running back, he found the end zone. If last week was any indication, Samuel will be a big part of Washington’s offense this season.
