Henry Ruggs III Week 11 Outlook -

By Mike Tagliere (FantasyPros), Thu, Nov 19th 2020, 9:32am EST

This is getting really old, really quick. Ruggs has now seen 25 targets this season. There have been 11 receivers who've seen more than 25 targets over the last three weeks, including Anthony Miller. It's odd to say the least. Knowing that and heading into a matchup with the Chiefs who've allowed the third-fewest yards per target (7.40) to wide receviers this year, we have major issues. The 11.95 yards per reception they allow doesn't bode well for a receiver who's used primarily as a deep threat, as they've allowed just 26 pass plays of 20-plus yards, which is the ninth-fewest in the league. When these teams met in Week 5, Ruggs saw three targets and turned them into two catches (one off his career high) for 118 yards and a touchdown, so he was able to get loose. Since the start of 2019, the Chiefs have allowed just 127.6 yards per game to wide receivers. Do you want to take the chance that Ruggs breaks loose again in this matchup? With his 3-4 targets in each of the last six games, it's not the greatest bet, making him a boom-or-bust WR4/5 option.
