DeAndre Hopkins Not a Trustworthy Option in Week 8

Saturday, October 25, 11:19 AM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins has essentially been invisible for fantasy managers outside of the first two weeks. Of course, missing Lamar Jackson (hamstring) has been part of the issue, but he only averaged two targets per game with Jackson. While the Chicago Bears defense is susceptible to some big passing plays, there have been too many receivers getting targets for Hopkins to be a consistent option. Plus, there's a chance Jackson doesn't play one more week and Tyler Huntley takes over under center. Fantasy managers can avoid Hopkins this week.

Jalen Nailor Not Involved in Week 8 Loss to Chargers

Tuesday, October 28, 5:04 PM

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jalen Nailor recorded only one target with no catches in their 37-10 Thursday night loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. Nailor had maintained a small role in the offense after Jordan Addison returned from his suspension in Week 4, recording six catches for 66 yards on 12 targets since then, but was held catchless for the first time this season against the Chargers. It would likely take an injury for Nailor's targets to spike back up, as the targets are heavily concentrated around Addison, Justin Jefferson, and T.J. Hockenson. He's best left on the waiver wire in 12-team leagues.
