My quick initial Panic on several players
Garrett Wilson averaged 19 PPG over the first three weeks, but only 10.5 PPG over the last four. The biggest red flag is volume: just 3 targets this week and about 6 targets per game over the last four. Omar Cooper is emerging, Mason Taylor is getting red-zone work, and the offense is functioning without force-feeding Garrett. The alpha target share we drafted him for is clearly under pressure.
Nico Collins is still running the most routes and remains the top dog, but heās gone three straight weeks without topping 11 PPR points and is averaging just over 5 targets per game in that span. Marvin Harrison Jr. was targeted on 50% of his routes in this game, while Jaylen Noel, Xavier Hutchinson, Kayshon Boutte and eventually Tank Dell all threaten to spread this offense out even more.
Chase Brown played 40 of 53 snaps and had 16 opportunities compared with just 4 for Samaje Perine. The concern is goal-line work: Perine came in after a DPI at the goal line and scored. So the volume remains good, but valuable touches could be siphoned off. This feels more like a downgrade than a panic.
Derrick Henry has now had back-to-back games under 6 fantasy points looks ugly. Lamar Jacksonās absence seems to be changing everything. Defenses can stack the box more, scoring opportunities fall, and Henry doesnāt have receiving volume to bail him out.
Cam Skattebo looked much better: 124 yards, a touchdown, 18 touches and the majority of the backfield work. But he felt something in his hamstring late and intentionally slid, then said it was āgood thing we have a bye week.ā Thatās the worry. Even with the bye, hamstrings can linger, and thereās a chance he misses time coming out of it.
Isaiah Likely - The box score disappointed, but McCarthy looked good, and Likely had a potential huge play erased when the pass was tipped. The Giants also werenāt forced into a high-volume passing script.
Justin Jefferson had 4 catches for 44 yards, and the concern centers on Kyler Murray plus Minnesotaās dominant defense. If the Vikings arenāt forced to throw and Kyler isnāt consistently creating quality downfield opportunities, Jeffersonās weekly floor becomes shakier than weāre used to. The talent gives him blowup weeks, but the weekly consistency is legitimately at risk.
Denzel Boston with now back-to-back disappointing games, and meanwhile KC Concepcion exploded for 8/129. Concepcion should now rank ahead of Boston rest of season. Bostonās production has leaned on splash plays and YAC that may not be repeatable, while Concepcionās target share has quietly been there for a while.
DK Metcalf had a bad week, but the underlying role remained strong. He was still one of Pittsburghās top route runners and target earners; the game just never demanded volume because New Orleans couldnāt score.
Germie Bernard - Same story as DK. Still at the top of the offense in routes and targets. The game environment killed the need for passing. Hold steady.
Tetairoa McMillan / Jalen Coker - Tampa Bay dominated the game and Bryce Young was under pressure almost immediately throughout. This was an awkward game rather than a reason to downgrade either player materially.
Sam LaPorta - One disappointing National Tight Ends Day performance is not enough to move him down. Keep starting him.
Josh Downs ran routes on 93% of dropbacks, which is exactly the kind of playing time you'd want. The problem is that Keenan Allen, on just 67% route participation, still generated more receiving yards per route run. That doesnāt mean Downs is losing his role, but it does reinforce the concern that the snaps and routes arenāt turning into enough useful production right now.
Juwan Johnson has posted receiving-yard totals of 16, 0 and 7 over his last three games, and his route participation dropped to just 59% as New Orleans incorporated more tight ends. That combination and declining production is concerning.
Jaylen Waddle was already struggling to live up to the expectations this season. To make matters worse, he exited the game for a medical evaluation and went to the locker room with a chest injury. It has been a very disappointing year for Waddle.
