Jaxon Smith-Njigba News
Friday, November 13, 3:02 PM
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba should have a big game against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 10. Smith-Njigba was held to just seven receptions for 51 yards in Week 9. Quarterback Drew Lock (elbow, oblique) was visibly banged up last week, and he only attempted 28 passes. However, JSN still received 10 targets; he was just unable to shake loose for anything down the field. Smith-Njigba should have no issues finding space to operate against a Raiders defense allowing 160.8 receiving yards to opposing wide receivers this season. Additionally, the Raiders are allowing 28.52 points to opposing wideouts in fantasy. Every wide receiver has a down game here and there, and Smith-Njigba has proven that his floor is still a double-digit fantasy day. Play JSN as you normally would in Week 10 and look for him to have another big week.

Puka Nacua News
Friday, November 13, 8:25 AM
Los Angeles Rams All-Pro wide receiver Puka Nacua (knee, toe) was placed on injured reserve after suffering an MCL and PCL sprain, as well as turf toe, on the team's final offensive play of a Week 9 win over the Commanders, but NFL Insider Ian Rapoport reports that he is targeting a mid-December return. While that timeline would afford him the chance to ramp up ahead of a potential Rams playoff run, it likely puts his return close to the start or even midway through the fantasy playoffs. The WR2 by points per game, Nacua is one of the few players reasonably capable of making an immediate fantasy impact following an injury of this nature, putting contending fantasy managers in a bind as to whether to hold him or flip him for more reliable production. The two-time Pro Bowler is RotoBaller's WR31 in rest-of-season rankings.
