NFL Weather Week 3: Calm forecast unlikely to impact fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em decisions image

We haven't been forced to deal with particularly treacherous conditions at this point in the NFL season. Those days will come at some point, but we're not there yet. Thankfully, it seems like we're in for another calm week of weather across the NFL.

Before we get into the Week 3 forecasts, here's a reminder that if you have any questions about sports weather or how the weather could impact play (and, potentially, your fantasy, DFS, and gambling decisions), don't hesitate to reach out to RotoGrinders' meteorologist Kevin Roth on Twitter (@KevinRothWx) or check out the hourly NFL weather forecasts on RotoGrinders.

Note: If a game isn't mentioned below, it's because it doesn't even have 10-mph winds, a 20-percent chance of precipitation, or extreme temperatures in the forecast.

NFL weather forecast and updates Week 3

New England Patriots at New York Jets

There's a chance that we see moderate levels of precipitation and wind during Thursday Night Football. The "heavy stuff" is supposed to pass by game time, so this weather shouldn't impact the game too heavily. Check back closer to game time for an official update.

Green Bay Packers at Tennessee Titans

There is a chance of passing showers at game time. The forecast currently projects a 24-percent chance of rain. This is nothing fantasy managers should fret over.

Jacksonville Jaguars at Buffalo Bills

UPDATE: Kevin Roth is currently forecasting a chance for some light rain. It's nothing to worry about for fantasy managers.

There is a strong chance of showers during the game in Buffalo. It shouldn't be something that impacts the game throughout its duration, but fans can expect to see some rain while the Bills host the Jaguars. This isn't something that affects fantasy lineup decisions

Washington Commanders at Cincinnati Bengals

UPDATE: Kevin Roth indicates that there is a chance of showers and/or storms during the game

We've got a Monday Night Football double-header this week, and there's a small chance that the game in Cincinnati gets some rain. It's not expected to be significant, but the true forecast should become clear later in the week. Stay tuned for updates.
