BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 29% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Zay Jones hasn't scored a touchdown since Week 1 but finds himself as a top-three target in a solid passing attack. In Week 14, it was the first time he played at least 80% of snaps and finished with fewer than 10 points, and this performance occurred in a tough matchup against the stingy Browns' defense.
Christian Kirk was injured on his first catch in Week 13 and has since been placed on IR. This puts Jones back into the starting lineup on a full-time basis. He finished with eight targets, five receptions, and 78 yards last week. He played on 93% of the snaps and had a 100% route participation rate.
With the team putting Kirk on IR, his Week 13 role should have become the expectation moving forward. That came to fruition this past weekend. He played on 64 of the team's 76 snaps and ran 52 routes on 56 dropbacks. He finished with 14 targets, which was the highest for the team. Calvin Ridley had 11 and Evan Engram had 12. These three players will be Trevor Lawrence's primary targets moving forward and they should be expected to handle the vast majority of the targets.
