Jalen Coker News
Sunday, November 8, 1:00 PM
Carolina Panthers wide receiver Jalen Coker caught four of his five targets for 29 receiving yards during Sunday's Week 9 loss against the Denver Broncos. He also rushed for a loss of three yards. The 25-year-old had a great start to the season, but he has cooled off significantly. Over his last three games, he has just seven catches for 74 yards and a touchdown. He has now scored double-digit fantasy points (PPR) in just three of his seven games so far. Bryce Young has clearly preferred throwing to Tetairoa McMillan lately, and there hasn't been as much volume available for Coker. That could change at a moment's notice, but for now, managers should temper their expectations. Coker is a low-floor WR3/flex heading into Week 10 at New Orleans.

Denzel Boston News
Saturday, November 7, 2:58 AM
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Denzel Boston looks like a promising fantasy play in Week 9 at the New Orleans Saints. Boston will look to develop some chemistry with Shedeur Sanders, who is starting at quarterback over Deshaun Watson. Boston was targeted 12 times in the Week 8 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers and caught six passes for 37 receiving yards. The yards per catch were much lower than the norm for Boston who had established himself as a big-play wide receiver with Watson throwing him passes. Boston still averages 15.7 yards per catch this season and has 26 catches for 409 yards and three receiving touchdowns. Boston hasn't caught a touchdown pass in his last three outings and will look to find the end zone with Sanders throwing him the ball. He has a nice matchup with the Saints pass defense that is near the bottom of the league. Saints starting cornerbacks Kool-Aid McKinstry and Martin Emerson Jr. are beatable and Boston will be looking for a big play or two out of the hands of Sanders. Fantasy managers should start Boston with confidence.
