Jalen Coker: Does Jalen Coker Have Weekly Fantasy Appeal Going Forward?

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Jalen Coker is one of the biggest risers this offseason, offering WR3/flex appeal for deeper fantasy leagues in 2026. The 24-year-old missed the first six games of last season but quickly took on a substantial role upon his return. After a reduced role in his first game back, he played at least 66% of the offensive snaps in each of his remaining 10 contests. He supplanted Xavier Legette as the Panthers' No. 2 receiver behind Tetairoa McMillan. Taking on a bigger offensive workload, he averaged 3.7 catches, 46.9 yards, and 0.4 touchdowns per game from Week 11 through Week 18. Coker ranked as the WR26 in PPR leagues during that span, and he kept his momentum going into the playoffs, where he caught nine passes for 134 yards and one touchdown in the Panthers' Wild Card loss. He ranks 173rd overall in RotoBaller's early redraft rankings for 2026, making him a projected 12th-round pick in 12-team leagues. He also ranks as the WR61 in the latest dynasty rankings, but he has top-36 upside and is an intriguing low-cost target in dynasty trades this offseason.
