Brandon Aiyuk

With Deebo Samuel out for a week or two with a groin injury, Aiyuk becomes an attractive fantasy option this week against the Seahawks. After an unproductive first half of the season, the second-year receiver from Arizona State has been coming on lately. Over his last four games, Aiyuk has 19-291-2 receiving on 25 targets, with 85 or more receiving yards in three of those four games. Aiyuk hasn't seen more than eight targets in a game all season, but that could change this week with Deebo on the shelf. Aiyuk is a midrange WR2 and an attractive DraftKings money-saver at $5,600.

Brandon Aiyuk goes for 55 yards on Sunday

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk hauled in 3-of-6 targets for 55 scoreless yards in Sunday's 30-23 loss to the Seattle Seahawks.

Fantasy Impact

It was a slow game for Aiyuk on Sunday as George Kittle (9-181-2) dominated the target share. The second-year wideout didn't even record a catch in the first half of the game but picked up a few chunk plays in the third and fourth quarters. He had a few drops as well, which hurt the 49ers' chances to keep pace with the Seahawks' offense. He was still second on the team in targets and catches and should perform better next week when the Niners take on the Bengals in Cincinnati.
