CeeDee Lamb's Target Volume Holds Up Against San Francisco

Saturday, November 14, 6:46 AM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb has drawn 20 red-zone targets through nine games, a source of scoring chances against a defense that has held wide receivers to 27.2 PPR points per game as a group. San Francisco gave up 73 yards to Raiders wideouts last week, with Tre Tucker accounting for 55. Lamb is still a WR1 and sits at WR2 in RotoBaller's weekend PPR rankings. At Indianapolis, he caught 10 of 16 targets for 195 yards and a touchdown. He scored from 44 yards out to cap a 75-yard drive in the final minute of the first half. That was his fourth straight game with double-digit targets and brought his season total to 108. George Pickens (hamstring) is back after a limited Thursday and full Friday, with no game designation. Lamb's last game alongside Pickens was also his lowest yardage total over the past four weeks. He turned 11 targets into seven catches for 58 yards against Arizona, good for 12.8 PPR points even on a day when Dak Prescott threw for just 195 yards.

Luther Burden III News

Luther Burden III Diagnosed with a Concussion

Sunday, November 8, 7:14 PM

Chicago Bears wide receiver Luther Burden III (concussion) was diagnosed with a concussion following Sunday's Week 9 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, head coach Ben Johnson told Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com. Burden exited after taking a scary head-to-head hit late in the fourth quarter of the Bears' victory. He immediately collapsed to the ground after the hit and required medical assistance. The 22-year-old finished Week 9 with nine targets, seven catches, 97 yards, and one touchdown. If there's any good news here, it's that the Bears have a Week 10 bye, so Burden will get extra time to recover. Clearing concussion protocol in one week is tricky, but Burden will have 14 days for his symptoms to improve before the Bears play again. In the event that his recovery takes longer than expected and he has to miss Week 11 as well, then Kalif Raymond and Zavion Thomas would handle a significant increase in offensive snaps.
