Jeremy Butler's decline continues
by Chris Zolli | Mon, Dec 28th 6:44pm EST
Jeremy Butler caught three of his six targets against the Steelers on Sunday for 38 yards, his second consecutive week with a decline in receiving yards from the previous game. Butler has 25 receptions for 306 yards this season and has had three or more receptions in six consecutive games.
Fantasy Impact:
A telltale reasoning for Butler's decline in yards and receptions is his drop in percentage of targets caught. After catching 79% of his targets (19-of-24) to open the season, he has only caught 54% of his targets over the past two weeks (6-of-11). Butler's season will end against the Bengals' 7th-ranked defense against WR and Butler was not targeted earlier this season against Cincinnati.
