Jerry Jeudy Injury Outlook

Jerry Jeudy (ankle) ruled out Sunday

The Denver Broncos have ruled Jerry Jeudy out for the remainder of the game with an ankle injury

Fantasy Impact

Jeudy suffered the ankle injury early in the game and was originally listed as questionable to return. He was able to make it to the medical tent under his own power. We will update you here when we have more information on the extent of the ankle injury.

Waiver Wire Replacements to Target

Christian Watson (GB): 8% rostered

  • Next opponents: TEN, @PHI, @CHI
  • True value: $6
  • Desperate need: $10
  • Budget-minded: $4

Analysis: The Christian Watson breakout happened in Week 10, and it was beautiful. Watson torched the Cowboys’ secondary repeatedly, leading the Packers with a 40% target share, reeling in four of his eight targets for 107 yards and three scores. It wasn’t a perfect game for him, as Watson let another deep shot slip through his hands, but Aaron Rodgers kept going back to Watson, as Allen Lazard was tied up with Trevon Diggs for most of the day. Watson has the talent to give Lazard a run for his money down the stretch as the WR1 in Green Bay.

Kadarius Toney (KC): 51% rostered

  • Next opponents: @LAC, LAR, @CIN
  • True value: $5
  • Desperate need: $8
  • Budget-minded: $3

Analysis: Kadarius Toney stepped up this week, filling in for Mecole Hardman. Toney played 44.4% of the offensive snaps with a 14.2% target share that he turned into 57 receiving yards and a score. Toney also added two carries and 33 yards on the ground. He finished third among the Kansas City wideouts with 17 routes run. As long as Hardman is out, Toney will be a viable flex as a contributor to one of the best offenses in football. If he continues to show out in Hardman’s absence (however long that might be), it’s conceivable that Toney could jump Hardman in the pecking order, as the team is unwilling to commit to playing Skyy Moore.

Donovan Peoples-Jones (CLE): 35% rostered

  • Next opponents: @BUF, TB, @HOU
  • True value: $3
  • Desperate need: $6
  • Budget-minded: $2

Analysis: Peoples-Jones has eclipsed 70 receiving yards in five of his last six games, as he has picked up steam down the stretch. Peoples-Jones led the team with a 25.7% target share in Week 10, narrowly missing the 100-yard receiving mark. With Deshaun Watson‘s return inching closer and closer, Peoples-Jones could see his ceiling tick upward by the time the fantasy playoffs arrive. The next three matchups for Peoples-Jones are rough, but if his weekly volume can hang in the seven-plus target range, he can remain a viable flex despite the rough assignments.

Terrace Marshall (CAR): 19% rostered

  • Next opponents: @BAL, DEN, BYE
  • True value: $3
  • Desperate need: $6
  • Budget-minded: $2

Analysis: Before his measly two-target performance in Week 10, Marshall was on the rise. He averaged 7.5 targets over his previous two starts with WR29 and WR19 fantasy finishes. With below-league-average quarterback play still dictating his weekly floor and ceiling, Marshall will remain a volatile WR4 with WR3 upside. His next three matchups are brutal (BAL, DEN, SEA) before his schedule lightens up. In Weeks 15-16, Marshall faces off against PIT and DET, who have been generous to wide receivers with the most and fourth-most fantasy points per game allowed to the position. Stash Marshall through the putrid matchups for playoff glory.

Parris Campbell (IND): 18% rostered

  • Next opponents: PHI, PIT, @DAL
  • True value: $3
  • Desperate need: $5
  • Budget-minded: $2

Analysis: Campbell sprung back to life with the Colts coming back to their senses (thank you, Jeff Saturday) and returning Matt Ryan to the starting lineup. With a 32.1% target share in Week 10, Campbell tied Michael Pittman for the team lead and finished with 76 receiving yards and a touchdown. After he stares down a nightmare matchup with the Eagles, Campbell should post a banner day against the Steelers, who have allowed the second-most fantasy points to slot wide receivers.

Darius Slayton (NYG): 6% rostered

  • Next opponents: DET, @DAL, WAS
  • True value: $2
  • Desperate need: $4
  • Budget-minded: $1

Analysis: Slayton finished Week 10 with a 23.5% target share, 95 receiving yards and a touchdown – which, on the surface, sounds amazing. The reality is that Slayton continues to thread the needle, as his shiny target share only amounted to four targets, with Daniel Jones only registering 17 passing attempts. The Giants continue to go as far as Saquon Barkley will take them. Slayton is the best receiving threat that New York has, and his schedule lends itself to more productive weeks ahead. The Lions and Commanders have surrendered the fourth and fifth most fantasy points per game to wide receivers.

Nico Collins (HOU): 13% rostered

  • Next opponents: WAS, @MIA, CLE
  • True value: $2
  • Desperate need: $4
  • Budget-minded: $1

Analysis: Collins returned from injury to lead the team with 10 targets (27.0% target share), hauling in five for 49 yards and a touchdown. With Brandin Cooks aging and fed up with losing, Collins looks like the real No. 1 wide receiver in Houston. The Davis Mills roller coaster has been challenging this season, but the next two weeks should bring solid stat lines for Mills and Collins. Washington and Miami have given up the fifth-most and ninth-most fantasy points per game to wide receivers.

Stash Candidates: Treylon Burks, Odell Beckham Jr., DeSean Jackson

The path for Treylon Burks‘ emergence as the top receiver in Tennessee remains. In his first game back, he managed a 16.6% target share and 75% route participation. Over the next month, Burks will face a depleted Bengals’ secondary and the Jaguars, who are 10th in fantasy points per game allowed to wide receivers. If nothing else, these upcoming dates will put Burks in the flex conversation.

Odell Beckham is a must-stash. He’s whittling down his potential destination to the Cowboys, Bills, Chiefs, Giants or 49ers. Each of these possibilities is intriguing. Beckham could be the playoff hammer to help bring home a title.

DeSean Jackson drew two targets while running only five routes in his Baltimore debut, but he still looked like a player with the juice, as he cooked the corners opposite him. Jackson is a deeper league add with advantageous matchups down the stretch, with Jacksonville, Pittsburgh (x2) and Atlanta on the schedule.
