Quality Matchup For Justin Jefferson Against Bears

Friday, November 14, 6:47 PM

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson is yet again a WR1 when the Vikings play host to the Chicago Bears in Week 11. The superstar has been quieter than normal during the past month as backup quarterback Carson Wentz and second-year starter J.J. McCarthy lead the charge for an up-and-down offense, but Jefferson still has been earning a ton of targets. McCarthy has targeted Jefferson 21 times in the past two weeks but only connected on 10, though the pair collaborated for a tide-turning touchdown in the first meeting against Chicago that sparked a fourth-quarter comeback. The Bears rank 24th against PPR receivers, offering a chance for Jefferson to break his cold streak. The Vikings likely will be erratic as they break in a 22-year-old QB, but the matchup and Jefferson's ability should have the superstar locked into lineups in all formats.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba Clears 100-Yard Mark Again in Loss to Rams

Monday, November 17, 1:08 AM

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba continued his historic season in a 21-19 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, catching nine of his 12 targets for 105 yards. Smith-Njigba failed to surpass the 100-yard mark last week against the Cardinals as he didn't play much in the second half, but he has cleared it in four of his past five games and seven of 10 games overall this season. The 23-year-old managed to post a dominant line despite quarterback Sam Darnold having his roughest game as a Seahawk with four interceptions. Smith-Njigba's floor for production is incredibly high, and the ceiling is also massive when Seattle plays in more high-scoring games, which we haven't seen many of this season. The superstar wideout has ascended to a new level this season and will rank as one of the best wide receivers in fantasy for Week 12 against the Titans.
