Jalen Coker has gotten off to a hot start this season as the WR6 in fantasy points per game. He opened the season as the WR1 in weekly scoring and followed it up with a WR18 showing last week. Coker leads the team with a 24.3% target share with 3.00 YPRR, five red zone targets, four deep targets, and a team-leading 29.5% first-read share. This week, he'll face a Browns pass defense that has the highest single high rate in the NFL (78.1%). Against single high, in Week 1, Coker had a 30% target-per-route run rate (led the team) with 5.10 YPRR. Last week, Young focused on McMillan, and against single high, Coker saw his target-per-route run rate slip to 19% with 1.33 YPRR. I expect McMillan to be the primary against single high again this week, but Coker can still have a fantastic game. Coker should post a sexy stat line against a pass defense that has allowed the tenth-most yards per target and the seventh-most fantasy points per opportunity to perimeter wide receivers.

Jalen Coker (ankle) didn't take part in practice on Thursday.

Fantasy Impact

Coker was held out of Thursday's practice due to his ankle injury that has been bothering him for a while. He was able to practice on Wednesday, though, so it seems like this may just be an injury management move from the part of the team. Fantasy managers should keep close tabs on updates about his status over the next 24 hours or so.
