Fantasy Football Player Notes

Zay Flowers is the WR31 in fantasy points per game with a 26.2% target share, 63.9 receiving yards per game, 2.22 yards per route run, and a 31.7% first-read share. He has six red zone targets and 12 deep targets. Last week was the first game he hasn't hit double-digit PPR points since Week 6. Flowers has been living in the low-end WR2/high-end WR3 bucket for most of the season. This week, he faces a Pittsburgh pass defense that has utilized single high at the fifth-highest rate (59.8%). Against single high, Flowers has seen his target share increase to 28.4% with 2.66 yards per route run and a 32.7% first-read share. Flowers is a solid flex/WR3 this week despite Jackson's struggles. Since Week 9, Pittsburgh has allowed the 13th-most fantasy points per game and ranked 16th in receiving yards per game against perimeter wide receivers.
