Noah Fant Has A Big Day In Week 17 Loss
3 years agoDenver Broncos tight end Noah Fant led the team in all receiving categories in the 34-13 loss to the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers in Week 17. With receivers Jerry Jeudy and Tim Patrick out due to COVID-19, Fant took advantage and led the team in targets (seven), receptions (six), receiving yards (92) and scored the team's only touchdown on the day. His six catches were the most he's had since Week 6, while the 92 receiving yards were his second-most on the season. Fant's fourth touchdown of the year came in garbage time late in the second half, though, and targets will be harder to come by when Jeudy and Patrick return to action, likely in the Week 18 season finale against the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday. It was a nice showing for those that played Fant in their championship matchups, but you'll need to temper expectations if Jeudy and Patrick return.
