1.Alshon Jeffery Philadelphia Eagles vs New York Giants

In the past 4 games that Jeffery has played in his targets have gone up. The Giants have given up an average of 41.64 points per game to opposing WRs this season. They are the 31st ranked defense at defending the WR position.
2.James Washington Pittsburgh Steelers @ Arizona Cardinals
Since JuJu Smith-Schuster went down with a injury Washington moved into the number 1 WR role for the Steelers. This week that is good as the game this week very well may be a high scoring game versus the Arizona Cardinals.

Bench 'EM
1.Washington Redskins WRs @ Green Bay Packers
Since Redskins rookie QB Dwayne Haskins took over it has had an adverse affect on the passing game. The Redskins want to run the ball more than they throw which hurts the receivers value as they do not have as many opportunities to make plays. The Packers have given up an average of 29.98 points per game to opposing WRs this season. They are the 9th ranked defense at defending the WR position.
2.Baltimore Ravens WRs @ Buffalo Bills
Even though the Ravens have been playing well on offense the receivers have not been that consistent. The reason is the Ravens offense likes to throw the ball to the TE position more than the WR position. The Bills have given up an average of 29.68 points per game to opposing WRs this season. They are the 8th ranked defense at defending the WR position.
