Expert Note
View More NotesOh, the yearly struggle with rostering Jameson Williams. He's the WR57 in fantasy points per game this season, and it has been a bumpy ride. Williams has a 10% target share, 1.19 YPRR, zero red zone targets, one deep target, and a 14% first-read share. I don't know if Williams' struggles are resolved this week. Carolina has the fifth-highest single high rate in the NFL (63.5%). Williams has been an afterthought against single high this season with an 11% target-per-route run rate and 0.70 YPRR. It's possible that he does bounce back this week, though. Last year, Williams had a 22% target-per-route run rate and 2.31 YPRR against single high. Carolina has been tough against perimeter wide receivers, but they just lost Jaycee Horn, so take these numbers with a grain of salt. Carolina has allowed the sixth-fewest yards per target and fourth-fewest fantasy points per opportunity to perimeter wide receivers. Williams is a volatile flex play this week, but his ceiling is sky-high if his usage changes against a matchup that isn't as scary as it seems on paper.
Player News

Fantasy Impact
After being held under 50 yards and no more than four grabs over the first three weeks of the season, Williams finally got going Sunday night. The big-play blazer had a long gain of 49 yards and averaged 17 yards on his half-dozen receptions. Williams should be viewed as an upside WR3 heading into Week 5.
