Jalen Brooks Not Viable Despite Move Up The Depth Chart

Saturday, October 17, 1:10 AM

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Jalen Brooks seemed to be the biggest beneficiary of Marvin Harrison Jr. sitting out Week 5 in anticipation of his eventual trade to the Texans. Brooks saw seven targets in the game, though he converted just two of them for receptions for 16 receiving yards. Perhaps more notable was how the Cardinals utilized Brooks in MHJ's absence. Brooks took over for Harrison in 2-WR sets while Kendrick Bourne was used exclusively in 3-WR packages, and Brooks' 57.4% route participation rate was just behind Kendrick Bourne's 59.3%. Brooks may be on the ascent, but on Sunday he will be challenged by Trent McDuffie or Jaylen Watson on the outside. Brooks makes for a sneaky stash, but he should not be in fantasy lineups against the Rams in Week 6.

Casey Washington Out With a Concussion in Week 2

Saturday, September 13, 10:09 PM

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Casey Washington (concussion) did not pass the league's concussion protocol and will be inactive on Sunday against the Vikings. The 24-year-old had his best game in the NFL last week, hauling in three of his six targets for 33 yards, but suffered a concussion during the fourth quarter of the contest. The University of Illinois product's six targets were fourth-most on the team and more than veteran Ray-Ray McCloud III's five targets, potentially signaling a changing of the guard for the third wide receiver spot in the Atlanta offense, but it was likely more a product of Darnell Mooney's absence in Week 1 than anything else. With Mooney expected to play in Week 2 but with Washington out, we'll have to see how things shake out in Week 3 in order to get a better feel for Washington's role in this offense. For now, Washington can be left to the waiver wire in fantasy leagues.
