team points
- NYG ranks 23 of 32 against WRs (one of the softer matchups, 3-game sample).
- Vegas implies 19.3 team points as 7.0-point underdogs.
- Listed WR on the latest depth chart with a 91% snap share.
The call
- Role is the selling point: 91% snap share and a 27% target share across 3 games is a true alpha-level workload that puts a solid PPR floor under him.
- The matchup leans favorable at 23 of 32 vs WRs, but it rests on a 3-game sample with 0.25 confidence, so it adds little.
- The 19.3 implied team total caps the touchdown upside. The 7.0 spread is the swing factor: if his team is the underdog, a trailing script would push extra pass volume his way.
- At WR37 with a 13.3-point projection he sits right at the flex line in 12-team PPR. With no injury designation, his target share earns the start over a typical replacement WR.
