Expert Note
View More NotesJaylen Waddle is the WR38 in fantasy points per game, as he has suffered through bad quarterback play and questionable play calling through three games. Over the last two games, Waddle has had a 26.2% target share, 3.08 YPRR, one red zone target, four deep targets, and a 35.1% first-read share. This week, he faces a 49ers secondary that has utilized single high at the eighth-highest rate (57.7%). Since Week 2, against single high, Waddle has had a 40% target-per-route-run rate and 3.32 YPRR. That's insane usage and production. If Nix can get his head on straight, Waddle should have a banner week. The 49ers have allowed the third-most yards per target and the fourth-most fantasy points per opportunity to slot receivers. Waddle was seen in a boot (foot) leaving last week's game, but he practiced in full to open this week.
