Fantasy Football Player Notes

He finally found the endzone. After four straight weeks of WR2 production, I dared to call him a WR2 heading into last week. Well, 167 yards and two scores have me still wiping egg from my face. Turns out, Davante Adams can't score touchdowns each week. As a result, adding touchdowns to Puka's already elite yardage totals shows us why he is one of the best in the league. The Rams, facing the Lions in Week 15, might be the fantasy game of the week. With two powerhouse offenses, we could be in line for massive fantasy finishes. If there was ever a matchup for Puka to start a touchdown streak, it may be this one. However, even if he doesn't find paydirt, he is locked into great usage and yardage totals.

We all knew that if Adams' failed to find the endzone, it was going to be a tough week for his fantasy managers. However, the connection with Matthew Stafford has been so automatic, that Adams not scoring seemed impossible. Somehow, in a game where the Rams dropped 45 points, Adams did not score. Thankfully, he has a perfect matchup in Week 15. The Lions have allowed the most fantasy points to opposing receivers over the last five weeks. Over this span, they have averaged 178.5 yards and 1.5 touchdowns to the position each game. In a game that has shootout written all over it, Adams should bounce back and be a locked-in WR1 for fantasy heading into the fantasy playoffs.
