Justin Jefferson News
Friday, November 13, 12:16 PM
The Minnesota Vikings put out the Bat-Signal for quarterback Kirk Cousins this week, and with the possible exception of wide receiver Justin Jefferson himself, nobody is happier about that more than fantasy managers who roster Jefferson ahead of a Week 10 game at Green Bay. The Vikings' offensive ineptitude reached comedic stages in last week's loss to Buffalo, though the All-Pro receiver has a new lease on this season thanks to Cousins, who will start right away after arriving via trade on Tuesday. Jefferson averaged 7.5 catches and more than 108 receiving yards playing with the veteran quarterback in head coach Kevin O'Connell's system, which included leading the NFL in catches and yards in 2022. Cousins' presence should completely revive the team's mid-range and play-action passing attack, where Jefferson has historically done his best work. Against a Packers defense that ranks 26th against half-PPR receivers and 27th in yards after catch, the superstar could be due for a few big plays on Sunday. He's RotoBaller's No. 6 receiver this week and should be started in all formats.

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.
