Darren Waller Bottled Up For Three Catches Thursday
5 years agoOakland Raiders tight end Darren Waller put up another underwhelming stat line versus the Chargers on Thursday, but he still finished in a tie for the team lead in targets. He caught three of his five targets for 40 yards as he's now put up back-to-back subpar performances. Waller dropped a screen pass that had plenty of daylight ahead of him, but game script was mostly to blame for his lack of touches. The Chargers held the team to just 12 offensive plays up until four minutes left in the first half, and the Raiders chose to attack on the ground when they did have the ball. Better days will be ahead for Waller and owners shouldn't push the panic button yet. He'll keep his TE1 status in Week 11 when the winless Bengals come to town.
