Fantasy Football Player Notes

Josh Downs is the WR33 in fantasy points per game, but he has produced much better than that fantasy ranking on a per-route basis. Downs has a 24.5% target share with 2.07 YPRR, four red zone targets, three deep targets, and a team-leading 31.5% first-read share. Downs has a stellar 0.133 first downs per route run. Downs should have another nice week against the Commanders, who since 2025 have allowed the second-most yards per target and the 12th-most fantasy points per opportunity to slot receivers.

Keenan Allen might be the WR41 in fantasy points per game, but he is coming off his best showing of the season as the WR19 in weekly scoring last week. Allen has a 20.4% target share (third on the team) with 1.37 YPRR, three red zone targets, zero deep targets, and a 26% first-read share (second on the team). Allen could follow up last week's performance with another nice stat line this week. Washington has allowed the fifth-most yards per target and the second-most fantasy points per opportunity to perimeter wide receivers this season.
