Makai Lemon Fantasy Football Outlook (2026)

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Wed, Aug 12th 2026, 12:40am EDT

Makai Lemon enters the Eagles' depth chart as their possible WR2 this season behind DeVonta Smith. We have seen Jalen Hurts support multiple receivers in numerous seasons, so it wouldn't be a shock to see Hurts do it again this season and Lemon be a big beneficiary. Lemon finishes a productive collegiate career ranking sixth and 12th in yards per route run, ninth and 50th in missed tackles forced, and 60th and 28th in YAC per reception over the last two seasons (per PFF). Lemon is a solid WR4 to scoop up in drafts that could easily produce as a weekly WR2/3 during the heart of the fantasy season.
