Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Christian Kirk caught eight of twelve targets for 84 yards in Sunday's 23-7 win over the Falcons. It was the third straight fantasy-relevant game for the ex-Cardinal, who now leads the team in receiving. Calvin Ridley caught the one touchdown pass on the day, but Kirk was once again the more trusted target of quarterback Trevor Lawrence. The Week 1 stinker was an outlier for Kirk, who has come on strong with 15+ points in three consecutive games. He will look to lead the Jaguars in receiving yet again next week against Buffalo.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba was targeted five times in Week 1 and six times in Week 2, but he is not yet threatening the workloads of DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett. The 21-year-old has only been on the field for 58% of snaps and the targets he has seen are at an average depth of just 1.9 yards. In Week 3 against the Panthers, Smith-Njigba will line up against Jimmy Chinn or Troy Hill, who have managed most of the slot corner snaps for Carolina in the first two weeks of the season. Smith-Njigba is definitely worth holding but the only reason to start him in Week 3 is if Metcalf (ribs) is ruled out.
