Davante Adams Week 12 Outlook - Raiders at Falcons

By Mike Tagliere (FantasyPros), Wed, Nov 25th 2020, 7:55pm EST

He's now scored eight touchdowns over the last five games, including at least one in every game. Last week was the first time he's seen fewer than 10 targets in a full game, though you'll take eight targets if it amounts to 7/106/1 against one of the better defenses in the league. He'll have to do it again in Week 12 against a Bears team that's been among the best in football at limiting wide receiver production. They've allowed a ridiculously-low 11.2 receptions per game to wide receivers and have allowed just five touchdowns to them. When you add in the 58.6 percent completion-rate and 7.77 yards per target, they rank as the second-toughest matchup in the league for wide receivers. Kyle Fuller has allowed just 1.07 PPR points per target in his coverage this year, which ranks as the third-lowest mark in football. Fortunately, the Bears don't shadow, which means Adams will also see plenty of rookie Jaylon Johnson. After playing extremely well at the start of the season, he's fallen off just a bit over their last six games, allowing 19-of-32 passing for 310 yards and two touchdowns in his coverage. Adams should remain in lineups as a WR1 despite the tough matchup.
