Rashid Shaheed News
Friday, November 6, 3:00 PM
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tory Horton (hand) is in line to receive more volume in Week 9 against the Arizona Cardinals. Seattle will be without wide receiver Rashid Shaheed (knee) for a second straight week. Horton earned six targets in his absence in Week 8, catching three for 26 yards. While his efficiency was not great, six targets was a solid mark to hit in an offense so dominated by wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Horton's matchup in Week 9 is solid. Arizona is 22nd against opposing wide receivers in fantasy. The Cardinals are also the 26th-graded team in pass coverage. As a deep threat, Horton has a chance to get loose in this game. Additionally, Seattle is down several key defensive players, opening the door for a potential shootout, further increasing Horton's potential for more volume. Horton should only be considered in 14-team leagues and larger, but he could be deployed as a potential flex option in deep leagues.

Caleb Douglas News
Sunday, November 8, 2:53 PM
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Caleb Douglas caught six of his eight targets for 70 yards during Sunday's Week 9 loss against the Detroit Lions. Miami fell to 1-7 with the defeat, but to their credit, they have been able to support some mid-range fantasy performances throughout the season. Douglas falls under that umbrella, averaging 14.1 PPR points per game over the last three weeks. During that three-game span, he has 17 targets, 12 catches, 183 yards, and a pair of touchdowns. The rookie seems to have taken over as Malik Willis' favorite receiver; not only has he led the team in targets each of the last two weeks, but he has also played at least 73.6% of the snaps in each of his last two games. Managers should feel comfortable rolling out Douglas as a high-end WR3/flex, especially with a more favorable matchup against the Colts in Week 10.
