Fantasy Football Player Notes

Amon-Ra St. Brown has now caught at least one touchdown in eight consecutive games. That streak and last week's overall WR1 performance have enabled St. Brown to enter Week 12 trailing only Ja'Marr Chase among wide receivers in total fantasy points. With Chase on a bye this week, St. Brown is a logical candidate to be this week's top fantasy wideout. Even if he falls short of that lofty perch, fantasy managers should continue to trust St. Brown as an elite WR1. This week's matchup versus the Indianapolis Colts should only help St. Brown, who thrives against zone coverage.

After last week's monster game, Williams is the WR27 in fantasy points per game. He has eight deep targets in eight games played, but he hasn't had a red zone target since Week 2. Williams has a 17% target share, 2.51 YPRR, and a 24.4% first-read share. Since Week 9, Indy has leaned into two high with the 12th-highest rate (52.6%). Williams has destroyed two high with a 22.7% target share, 2.96 YPRR, and a 30.8% first-read share. His abilities against two high was a big reason I was so high on him last week, and he's primed to smash again. Since Week 6, Indy has allowed the 12th-most receiving yards per game to perimeter wide receivers. Indy has also struggled to defend deep passing this season. They have allowed the fourth-most passing yards per game and the 12th-highest adjusted completion rate to deep passing. Williams leads the team in deep targets.
