Sammy Watkins Week 4 Outlook -

By Mike Tagliere (FantasyPros), Wed, Sep 30th 2020, 9:24am EDT

I'd say last week was a success for Watkins, who hauled in seven passes for 62 yards against the Ravens top-tier secondary. The week before that, it was a tough go against Casey Hayward where he totaled just 11 yards on three targets. This week isn't going to be much easier, as Stephon Gilmore is waiting. With that being said, Gilmore hasn't been untouchable in coverage this year, allowing 10-of-15 passing for 168 yards and a touchdown. The 1.62 yards per snap he's allowed is tied for the 27th-most among the 109 cornerbacks who've played at least 20 percent of the snaps. Still, it's not likely the Chiefs choose to attack him when Hill and Kelce have a superior matchup. In seven career games against Bill Belichick's defense, Watkins has topped 60 yards just once and has caught one touchdown. He's someone who should be rostered for sure, but he's just a low-end WR4 this week.
