Keenan Allen Scores A Touchdown In Week 4

Sunday, October 1, 7:54 PM

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen scored a touchdown in a Week 4 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Allen didn't see the enormous amount of targets he saw in Week 3, but he was efficient, catching three passes on five targets for 32 yards and a score. His touchdown came on a seven-yard pass from Justin Herbert in the second quarter and was the only passing touchdown of the game. Allen will continue as an every week WR1 after the Chargers return from their bye week.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba Still Looking For Breakout

Saturday, September 23, 4:56 AM

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba was targeted five times in Week 1 and six times in Week 2, but he is not yet threatening the workloads of DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett. The 21-year-old has only been on the field for 58% of snaps and the targets he has seen are at an average depth of just 1.9 yards. In Week 3 against the Panthers, Smith-Njigba will line up against Jimmy Chinn or Troy Hill, who have managed most of the slot corner snaps for Carolina in the first two weeks of the season. Smith-Njigba is definitely worth holding but the only reason to start him in Week 3 is if Metcalf (ribs) is ruled out.
