fantasy pts / game (PPR)
- Stable workload
His usage has held around 5.0 targets per game, so the swings come from what he does with the ball, not how often he gets it.
- Reliable secondary option
He draws 18% of PHI's targets. That is enough for a solid floor, but big weeks depend on game script.
- Efficient with his chances
11.9 yards per target on the season (the typical WR is at 8.4), and 6.4 over his last game. He is turning volume into yards better than most at his position.
- Tough recent schedule
Opponents in his last game (CHI) give up less EPA per play than the league average. He has been producing against strong opponents, so the numbers are probably underselling him.
- Struggling offense around him
PHI are averaging -0.27 EPA per play on offense. Stalled drives and fewer red-zone trips limit what he can produce.
