Wide Receivers 10/18

Justin Jefferson: Jefferson had another breakout game this week against Atlanta. The rookie out of LSU had nine receptions for 166 yards and two touchdowns averaging 18.4 yards a catch. Jefferson put up 39.6 points in his third game over 100 yards and should be a WR2 against Green Bay after his bye week.

Julio Jones: After not playing in week five because of an injury Jones came back and had a great performance putting up 33.7 points. Jones hauled in eight receptions for 137 yards and two touchdowns. Jones had a highlight 40-yard touchdown on fourth down in the third quarter. Next week Jones is a must-start as he faces a Lions defense that is dealing with multiple injuries.

Will Fuller V: Fuller had a strong performance against the Titans scoring 24.3 points. In just six receptions Fuller had 123 yards and a touchdown averaging 20.5 yards a catch. Fuller had a highlight 53-yard touchdown in the third quarter continuing his streak of scoring for the fourth week in a row. Fuller has been a consistent fantasy WR and should be a considered WR2/FLEX option next week against Green Bay.

A.J. Brown: After coming back from his injury that kept him out of three games Brown put up 22.6 points against Houston. Brown had five receptions for 56 yards and two touchdowns, one in the fourth quarter forcing overtime where the Titans went on to beat the Texans. Brown is the Titans number one receiver and should be started against the Steelers next week.

Christian Kirk: Kirk had a very efficient performance against the Cowboys on Monday night. Although he only had two receptions he was able to score a total of 22.6 points. Kirk was able to gain 86 yards and score two touchdowns in two catches. He had a highlight touchdown for 80 yards late in the second quarter putting the Cardinals up 21-0. Although he had a great fantasy performance this week you should not expect the same numbers from him next week against Seattle, and he should not be started.

Brandin Cooks: For the second week in a row Cooks has had a strong performance this time against the Titans scoring 21.8 points. Cooks had nine receptions for 68 yards and a touchdown. In two games Cooks has hauled in 21 receptions and two touchdowns for 229 yards and should be considered a WR2/FLEX option against Green Bay next week.
