Jahan Dotson a Low-Floor, Low-Ceiling Play in Week 6

Saturday, October 17, 9:01 AM

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Jahan Dotson has become more interesting for fantasy managers over the last two weeks, recording exactly 54 receiving yards in each game while catching one touchdown pass. The downside is that he's caught no more than two passes in any game this season and received no more than four targets. Still, the 26-year-old has become the team's deep threat, with an average depth of target (ADOT) of 16.4 yards, compared to Drake London, whose 9.1-yard ADOT is second-best on the team. Even so, Dotson's limited involvement and dependency on big plays make the Penn State product a risky fantasy play most weeks. The Bears defense will be without multiple key defenders this week, which could mean a couple more opportunities, but the fifth-year pro is still low in the receiving pecking order in Atlanta, making him a WR6 this week or a DFS tournament dart throw.

Andrei Iosivas News

Andrei Iosivas Heading to IR with Thumb Injury

Wednesday, September 23, 10:00 AM

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Andrei Iosivas (thumb) tore a ligament in his thumb and will be placed on injured reserve, meaning he will miss at least the next four games. Head coach Zac Taylor told the media that the fourth-year receiver will return at some point this season, but his absence should serve to funnel even more of the offense through Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. Through two games, Iosivas has been the only other wide receiver on the roster to see more than two targets, though he has turned those opportunities into only 19 total yards. The third spot in three-receiver sets could now see a rotation between fourth-round rookie Colbie Young and former CFL star Dohnte Meyers, but the passing offense will continue to run through Chase and Higgins, with running back Chase Brown also likely to see an uptick in targets.
