He had five red zone targets and two deep targets. I don't think McLaurin stays in the flames this week. Minnesota has utilized two high at the highest rate in the NFL (66.4%). Against two high this season, McLaurin has had a 14.3% target share with 1.76 yards per route run and a 15.8% first-read share.
