Mike Williams Week 11 Outlook - Jets at Commanders

He leads the league in yards without a touchdown. He's amassed 585 yards with an impressive 10.4 yards per target, but the lack of touchdowns has crushed his fantasy upside. We're all waiting for that blow-up game, though it may not come in Week 11. The Chiefs have seen 161 targets to wide receivers and have allowed just eight touchdowns on them, so one every 20.1 targets. The duo of Charvarius Ward and Bashaud Breeland have combined to allow just a 52.7 percent completion-rate on 93 targets in coverage with just three touchdowns, so they're even tougher to get on the perimeter. Williams does get into the slot about 30 percent of the time, so he can find some production there. We know he's able to score remarkable touchdowns where he skies over defenders; we saw it last year when he caught 10 touchdowns on 66 targets. He hasn't finished outside the top-48 receivers in seven of his last eight games but has finished inside the top-30 just three times. Once he starts scoring, everyone will play him as a low-end WR2/high-end WR3, but until we start seeing it, he's just a risky WR3. It also doesn't help that he's seen just seven targets over the last two weeks in the new offense.
