WR -
Week 5 Outlook
Availability
The Atlanta Falcons worked out WR Richie James Jr.
Fantasy Impact
James caught 10 passes with the Chiefs last season. He'll look to earn a roster spot in training camp to compete for a depth role in the Falcons wide receiver room.
Richie James Jr. caught his lone target for six yards in the Chiefs' 25-17 win over the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 17.
Fantasy Impact
James Jr. remains minimally involved in the Kansas City offense of late, seeing three or less targets in each of the last five games for the Chiefs. The speedster should remain out of lineups in all formats for fantasy managers ahead of a favorable Week 18 contest against the Los Angeles Chargers.
Richie James Jr. caught all three of his targets for 54 yards during the Chiefs' 20-14 loss to the Raiders in Week 16.
