Malik Washington News
Saturday, October 3, 3:32 AM
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Malik Washington will likely get plenty of work in Week 4 when the Dolphins visit the Vikings in a difficult matchup. Rookie receiver Caleb Douglas (ankle) will miss a second straight game, leaving Washington as the clear No. 1 receiver. Last week without Douglas, Washington caught five of his 10 targets from QB Malik Willis for 56 yards and added five more yards on two carries. He has a 27.1% target share, which ranks 11th in the NFL and leads the team in routes run by a wide margin. He hasn't found the end zone yet this season or reached 60 receiving yards in any contest. However, he should continue to draw plenty of attention, and his volume gives him both a high ceiling and a high floor, even in Miami's struggling offense. He's still only the WR42 in RotoBaller's Week 4 rankings, though, which makes him a fringe FLEX option in most formats.

KC Concepcion Jr. News
Wednesday, September 30, 12:48 PM
Cleveland Browns rookie first-round wide receiver KC Concepcion Jr. got nine targets in Week 3's win over the Carolina Panthers but only managed to turn those nine targets into two catches for nine yards. So far this season, Concepcion has 12 catches for 80 yards, good for 6.7 yards per catch. He is not producing enough explosive plays and is being used mostly as an underneath threat. He's getting decent volume in terms of number of targets but just isn't turning those catches into anything memorable. Pittsburgh's secondary is a bit beat up with Joey Porter Jr. out and Jalen Ramsey nursing a broken wrist. This would be the game for Concepcion to break out, but it's hard to count on the rookie from Texas A&M until we see him do more with his catches and see him produce more in the passing game, including scoring a touchdown. Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson looks Concepcion's way but needs to start targeting him further down the field. Concepcion's slight frame isn't allowing him to get downfield receptions. Look for a decent game against Pittsburgh, but he shouldn't be counted on as a starting fantasy receiver.
