Fantasy Football Player Notes

Carson Wentz will draw the start for Minnesota this week. In Wentz's two games of action this season, he was the QB12 and QB30 in weekly scoring. Among 42 qualifying passers this season, Wentz is 20th in yards per attempt, 37th in passing success rate, 40th in highly accurate throw rate, and 37th in catchable target rate. Wentz likely isn't the savior for this offense and passing attack. His accuracy issues have been substantial. The thing working in Wentz's favor is the fact that the Bills' pass defense hasn't been a unit to be scared of this season. Over their last five games, Buffalo has allowed the 13th-highest passing touchdown rate, the 12th-highest passing success rate, the 13th-most EPA per dropback, and the 15th-most fantasy points per dropback. Wentz can post serviceable QB2 numbers this week.
