Darnell Mooney News
Saturday, October 3, 6:36 AM
New York Giants wide receiver Darnell Mooney has caught six of eight targets for 95 yards in three full games this season. With a healthy Malik Nabers and tight end Isaiah Likely, Mooney's target volume hasn't been high. In those three games, Matt Nagy's Giants offense ranks 28th in pass attempts and 30th in pass rate over expected, and with backup quarterback Jameis Winston in the lineup, the team may lean even more on the run. Mooney faces an Arizona Cardinals secondary that has allowed the second-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. With Cardinals cornerbacks Will Johnson (neck) and Garrett Williams (achilles) ruled out and Max Melton (toe) questionable, Mooney and the Giants' receivers should be able to produce. However, the team's run-heavy system and Mooney's lack of targets should keep him out of fantasy lineups despite the favorable matchup.

Jaylin Noel News
Saturday, October 17, 3:04 AM
Houston Texans wide receiver Jaylin Noel has been gathering some solid momentum as his team's slot receiver over the last few weeks, but his usage and his role are uncertain after the team traded for Marvin Harrison Jr. this week. Noel led the team with five catches and scored the only receiving touchdown last week in a win over the Titans, finishing with 41 receiving yards and his most PPR fantasy points of the season. His snap share and target share were trending up, but with Harrison joining the mix, the wide receiver room in Houston is starting to get crowded, and targets could be harder to come by. This week against Jacksonville in London, Harrison will make his debut in a limited role, but Noel's playing time and role are uncertain, so he slides to No. 64 in RotoBaller's WR rankings. He is best left on the bench in all but the deepest of formats until his role is more settled.
