Fantasy Football Player Notes

For the ninth time this season, JSN cracked 100 yards in a game. In fact, he has 12 games with more than 90 yards. Wild. In what has been one of the best receiver seasons of the decade, JSn continues to find ways to be a league winner. This week, the Seahawks have a very important game against the Rams on Thursday Night. With the Rams potentially missing both Davante Adams and Puka Nacua, it will be an interesting defensive battle. On the season, the Rams are allowing the 10th most fantasy points to opposing wideouts. They'll likely have a plan to try and slow down JSN, but the last time they met, he still had nine catches for 105 yards.

Over the last two weeks, Shaheed has finished as the WR14 and WR28 in weekly scoring with an 18.2% target share, 70.5 receiving yards per game, 2.71 yards per route run, and a 23.8% first-read share (second on the team). During these two weeks, Shaheed has had one red zone target and three deep targets. Shaheed is a surprisingly strong flex this week against a secondary that, since Week 10, has allowed the fourth-most PPR points per target and the fourth-most receiving yards per game to perimeter wide receivers.

Since Week 14, Kupp has seen his role in the Seattle passing offense take a hit as Rashid Shaheed is finally being integrated. Since Week 14, Kupp has had a 15.2% target share with 40.5 receiving yards per game, 1.42 yards per route run, and a 21.4% first-read share. Kupp has had four red zone targets and one deep target during these two games, so his touchdown equity in the offense is still strong. This isn't the matchup to consider flexing Kupp against, though. Since Week 10, the Rams have allowed the second-fewest PPR points per target and the sixth-fewest receiving yards per game to slot receivers.
