Alshon Jeffery

Jeffery had a big performance in Week 2 against Kansas City, with seven catches for 92 yards and a touchdown, but he'll have a tougher matchup to contend with here against the Giants. New York has not allowed more than eight fantasy points in standard leagues to any receiver so far this season, and the defense has allowed just three receivers to surpass 100 yards last year. Janoris Jenkins may need another week to recover from his ankle injury, which would boost Jeffery's value a bit. But he'll still be a low-end WR2, at best, in the unfavorable matchup.

Alshon Jeffery shows up big in loss

Eagles receiver Alshon Jeffery came up big in his second game as an Eagle, catching seven catches for 92 yards, including a 16-yard touchdown in the Eagles 27-20 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.

Fantasy Impact

Without a corner to lock him down, Jeffery had the game that the Eagles needed him to have, although the Eagles did still fall short. His 13 targets in the contest (including, technically, the Hail Mary at the end of the game) are a very positive sign of what's to come this season, as the Eagles have shown that they really want to sling the ball a lot this year with second-year caller Carson Wentz.
