Keenan Allen a Potential WR3 in Favorable Matchup Against Cowboys

Saturday, November 7, 12:02 PM

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Keenan Allen earned seven targets in Week 8, reeling in all seven for 67 yards. It was the fourth time in the last five games in which the veteran garnered at least seven targets, and he should be in line for a similar workload in Week 9 against a Dallas defense that has been generous to opposing wideouts. The Cowboys are yielding the fifth-most fantasy points per game to wide receivers, allowing eight touchdowns and the sixth-most receiving yards to that position through eight weeks (1313; 164.1 yds/game). The Colts will be missing multiple pieces on defense in this one, so both offenses could have a chance to shine in a game with a high projected total. View the 34-year-old receiver as a borderline WR3/4 or solid Flex play in Week 9, with some upside in PPR formats.

Kayshon Boutte News

Kayshon Boutte Breaks Out in Dominant Win Over Chargers

Sunday, November 8, 4:55 PM

Houston Texans wide receiver Kayshon Boutte broke out in Week 9, with four receptions for a career-high 125 yards (31.3 yards per catch) and two touchdowns in a 44-22 blowout victory over the winless Los Angeles Chargers. Entering the game against Los Angeles, Boutte had recorded just 15 receptions for 194 yards (12.9 yards per catch) and zero touchdowns, so this performance was out of the ordinary. Boutte saw five targets from quarterback C.J. Stroud and made the most of them. Currently rostered in 5% of Yahoo leagues, Boutte will likely be a popular waiver wire target ahead of Week 10, but he will need to show more consistency before being a recommended starter in fantasy lineups.
