Malik Nabers Looks to Extend Hot Streak Against Texans

Friday, October 23, 6:36 PM

New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers has been on a tear lately and appears fully healthy entering Week 7. Over the past three weeks, Nabers has caught 29 of 42 targets for 398 yards and two touchdowns, averaging 22.1 half-PPR fantasy points per game. While the Giants are switching from Jameis Winston to J.J. McCarthy, Nabers continued to succeed with the former Vikings first-round pick, totaling four receptions for 95 yards in the fourth quarter. The quarterback change could end Nabers' hot streak and add risk, but it may not matter for the star receiver, who has been a volume machine. He faces the Houston Texans in Week 7, who have allowed the second-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. Fantasy managers can still fire up Nabers as a solidified WR1, though he carries more risk if McCarthy struggles in his first start.

Makai Lemon is Streaming Option with Larger Role Looming

Saturday, October 24, 5:43 PM

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Makai Lemon is quickly moving up the depth chart on this roster. Both DeVonta Smith (hamstring) and Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) have been ruled out ahead of the Week 7 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. With neither of them active, Lemon will move into the top spot on the depth chart ahead of this juicy matchup against the Cowboys' secondary. The 22-year-old hasn't done much this season, but he should be counted on more frequently this weekend. Fantasy managers in deep leagues who are looking for a possible streaming option should consider Lemon for this weekend.
