Robbie Chosen Week 15 Outlook - Seahawks at Commanders

We knew Anderson would see a bump in targets with D.J. Moore out of the lineup and 12 of them certainly qualifies as a decent bump. Getting eight catches for 84 yards is certainly a quality game, though we did have sky-high expectations as the Broncos were without all their starting cornerbacks. Anderson has scored in-between 10.5 and 19.5 PPR points in nine of his last 11 games, which means he's typically in either the WR2 or WR3 range, depending on the matchup. The matchup against the Packers hasn't been very beneficial to wide receivers, as they've allowed the seventh-fewest points to the position. Volume has been part of the issue (opponents run just 60.0 plays per game), but efficiency hasn't been great, either. They have the sixth-lowest catch-rate (62.3), the eighth-lowest yards per target (7.71), and have allowed the 11th-fewest PPR points per target (1.71). Another potential issue is Jaire Alexander, though the Packers haven't done any shadowing with him in recent weeks. Anderson plays most of his snaps on Alexander's side of the field, but he will see Kevin King roughly 30 percent of the time, too. That's who we want, as King has constantly allowed wide receivers get over the top of him since coming to the league. Still, there have been just six wide receivers all year who've finished as top-24 options against the Packers, so it's highly unlikely we see multiple Panthers get into that territory. Anderson should be considered a high-end WR3 who comes with a sturdy floor, though his ceiling may be lacking in this contest.
