Zay Jones Fantasy Football Outlook (2023)

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Fri, Sep 1st 2023, 10:36am EDT

Zay Jones has an uphill battle this year if he hopes to get close to the 121 targets (18th-best) he saw last year. Calvin Ridley will undoubtedly take a giant juicy bite from that target pie. Jones was the WR31 in fantasy points per game last year, settling in as Trevor Lawrence's red zone favorite (12th-most red zone targets). Jones was 30th in route win rate and 25th in total route wins (per Playerprofiler.com), so his ability to draw targets in this offense shouldn't disappear. He's best viewed as a WR4/5.
