Injuries to the New Orleans Saints wide receiver room cleared a path up the depth chart for rookie Mason Tipton. With Chris Olave (concussion), Rashid Shaheed (knee), and Bub Means (ankle) on injured reserve, and Cedrick Wilson Jr. (shoulder) out for Week 10, there seemed to be ample opportunity for Tipton to soak up some targets. Sadly, that wasn't the case as Tipton did not draw a single target in last week's game against the Falcons. Marquez Valdes-Scantling was the main beneficiary of the Saints' lack of receiving talent, catching three balls for 109 yards and two scores against Atlanta, while running back Alvin Kamara was the preferred option on short routes. In Week 11, MVS can be expected to remain the team's deep option and if Wilson shakes his questionable tag, Tipton will have a hard time commanding targets against him or Kamara. He can safely be left on the waiver wire.--Dan Stephens - RotoBaller

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Mason Tipton vaulted to the front of the depth chart with all of the injuries to the receiving corps. In the Saints' Week 10 victory, it was Marquez Valdes-Scantling who took charge, not Tipton. The rookie out of Yale didn't see a single target and posted a goose egg for the week. He played the same amount of snaps as Valdes-Scantling at 29, but Derek Carr wasn't looking his way. Tipton will try to bounce back against the Cleveland Browns in Week 11.--Alex Fischbein - RotoBaller

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Mason Tipton suddenly finds himself at the top of the team's depth chart going into Week 10. Chris Olave (concussion) and Cedrick Wilson Jr. (shoulder) have both been declared out on the team's final injury report for their game against the Atlanta Falcons, paving the way for Tipton to step in as the Saints' WR1. What he does with the opportunity is another question. In the wake of Olave's early exit last Sunday, Tipton was targeted just three times and had zero catches despite being on the field for 78% of the team's offensive snaps. Tipton had close to an 80% snap share in the two previous weeks as well but saw little production. Over the last three weeks, the rookie out of Yale has eight catches on 14 targets for 59 receiving yards. It is hard to trust that Tipton will break out in Week 10 as there is little separating him from Marquez Valdes-Scantling or Jermaine Jackson. Looking like a WR5, Tipton can be on the wire in most leagues but makes for a dart-throw flex in deep leagues.--Dan Stephens - RotoBaller

A week after leading his team in targets, New Orleans Saints wide receiver Mason Tipton drew just two in Week 8 against the Los Angeles Chargers and finished the game with two catches for 14 yards. With fellow rookie Bub Means (ankle) declared out and Cedrick Wilson Jr. (hip) tagged as questionable for Week 9, Tipton is suddenly next in line behind Chris Olave at wide receiver. Even with the dramatic jump up the depth chart, Tipton will be hard to trust against the lowly Carolina Panthers. The Saints' Week 1 blowout of their division rival featured the use of their running backs and tight ends, positions that the Panthers have continued to struggle against mightily. A similar game plan this time around would leave Tipton short on usage. He can be left on the wire in 12-team leagues in favor of players with more certain roles.--Dan Stephens - RotoBaller

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Mason Tipton is coming off his best performance of the season. He hauled in six of his nine targets for 45 yards in the loss to the Denver Broncos. It was a surprisingly high workload for Tipton who hadn't finished with more than two receptions in any previous contests. It's worth noting that top wideout Chris Olave was sidelined last week, but is back now. That probably means that Tipton goes back to having a minimal role in the offense. Tipton is worth stashing in some dynasty formats, but isn't an ideal streaming option for the Week 8 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers.--Andy Webb - RotoBaller
