Fantasy Football Player Notes

Samuel has finished as a WR2 or better in weekly fantasy scoring in four of his nine games played this season. Samuel has an 18.5% target share, 2.06 YPRR, and a 24% first-read share. He is eighth in red zone targets among wide receivers. Since Week 6, Green Bay has been 11th in two high rate (51.6%). Against two high (minimum 40 routes), in the eight games Samuel has played at least 62.7% of the snaps, he has had a 19% TPRR and 1.94 YPRR against two high. The 49ers should look to feature Samuel's dynamic run after the catch ability this week against Green Bay. The Packers have allowed the 12th-highest missed tackle rate per reception and the 14th-highest yards after the catch per reception. Among 56 qualifying receivers, Samuel ranks second in yards after the catch per reception and 15th in missed tackles forced per reception. Since Week 6, Green Bay has held perimeter wide receivers to the third-fewest receiving yards per game and the fifth-lowest PPR points per target, but Samuel's unique skillset and run-after-the-catch ability can overcome a tough matchup.

Since his return, Jennings has been amazing, averaging 20.7 fantasy points per game while soaking up a 32.8% target share and a 41.3% first-read share with 2.71 YPRR and 92 receiving yards per game. Jennings has seven deep targets and nine red zone looks in his eight games played. Since Week 6, Green Bay has been 11th in two high rate (51.6%). Against two high (minimum 40 routes), Jennings has led the team in TPRR (29%) and YPRR (3.29). Jennings should be a focal point of the passing attack again this week. Jennings will have to deal with Green Bay's talented secondary that, since Week 6, has held perimeter wide receivers to the third-fewest receiving yards per game and the fifth-lowest PPR points per target.

With Jauan Jennings back, Pearsall has had a 10.9% target share, 1.52 YPRR, 36.5 receiving yards per game, and a 15.2% first-read share. Since Week 6, Green Bay has been 11th in two high rate (51.6%). Against two high (minimum 40 routes), Pearsall has ranked fourth on the team with a 16% TPRR and only 1.0 YPRR. Pearsall is a must-sit this week. Since Week 6, Green Bay has held perimeter wide receivers to the third-fewest receiving yards per game and the fifth-lowest PPR points per target.
