Brycen Tremayne's fantasy role in Week 8
Brycen Tremayne goes into Week 8 of the 2026 season as a deep-league WR flyer for the CAR. He is rostered in 0% of leagues and actually started in 0% of them, and we rank him WR93 on our own weekly board at 2.2 projected points.
Roster rates are steady week over week, so his role looks settled rather than in flux.
No injury designation to work around right now, which keeps his projection honest.

Sally's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Brycen Tremayne (CAR WR), our WR93 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season at GB, projecting 2.2 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Sally's honest about it: 7.8 points under the starter line isn't the ceiling she chases. GB is the opponent, and that's the part of this I'm least worried about. He grades 78% below the average weekly WR number, which is a floor problem more than a ceiling one. Mild on the Pepper Meter is generous, honestly.
