Kendrick Bourne Not Worth Starting In Week 8
4 years agoSan Francisco 49ers wide receiver Kendrick Bourne has some key factors working in his favor going into Week 8. The 49ers will face the league's worst pass defense this week, the Seattle Seahawks. The Seahawks are allowing 368.7 passing yards per game on the year. Additionally, the 49ers will be without Deebo Samuel (hamstring), who led all 49ers receivers in targets over the past three weeks. Bourne should see at least five targets in a game that figures to be high-scoring. However, that's about what he was getting earlier this year before Samuel made his 2020 debut and the results were extremely underwhelming. Bourne is essentially a touchdown-or-bust option this week and is best left on waivers.
