NFL: Cincinnati Bengals at Cleveland Browns
Jimmy Garoppolo – VS. CHARGERS – 19% STARTED:
Jimmy Football has quietly been of the steadiest QB performers this season. In seven starts he’s surpassed 16 points five times. San Francisco is off a bye and healthy for the first time since acquiring Christian McCaffrey. That’ll play. That’s a QB1 this week despite a tough matchup vs. the Chargers.
Donovan People-Jones – @ DOLPHINS – 7% STARTED:
With David Njoku (Ankle) trending towards another absence, People-Jones once again projects as the #2 pass option on the Browns offense. Over the last five weeks the 23-year-old has averaged 69.5 yards per game – which ranks 11th amongst pass catcher’s. DVJ is a flex play in a potential shootout.
Jacoby Brissett – @ DOLPHINS – 6% STARTED:
Nobody in the NFL is allowing more points to fantasy QB’s than the Miami Dolphins. The Browns will try to establish the run off a bye, but in order to stay in this game, Brissett will have to throw more than he’s accustomed to. He’s a QB1 this week.
Foster Moreau – VS. COLTS – 4% STARTED:
The Raiders officially placed Darren Waller and Hunter Renfrow on the IR yesterday. That leaves Foster Moreau as the every down tight end. He’s played AT LEAST 96% of the team’s snaps during Waller’s absence. The Colts secondary has been elite vs. WR’s this season, suggesting a bigger role for the 25-year-old tight end.
Kalif Raymond – @ BEARS – 2% STARTED:
He’s playing every down on a Lions teams that should have no problem scoring against a defense that has inexplicably allowed 84 points over the last two weeks. Despite flopping vs. the Packers, Raymond’s 22% air share and 17% target share (since week 5) warrant a start vs. one of the worst defensive units in the NFL.
