Bo Nix has crushed Jaylen Waddle's season so far as the WR49 in fantasy points per game. Waddle has a 19% target share with 1.49 YPRR, two red zone targets, five deep targets, and a 27.9% first-read share. It has been difficult to watch all season. Maybe this is the Waddle bounce-back game, but I don't know if Nix can facilitate it.

Positive signalProjection

Waddle's WR49 ranking reflects Nix's poor play; favorable matchup can't overcome QB.

Waddle is the WR49 in fantasy points per game this season, crushed by Bo Nix's poor quarterbacking; he has a 19% target share with 1.49 YPRR, two red zone targets, five deep targets, and 27.9% first-read share; while Arizona has allowed the second-most yards per target and fantasy points per opportunity to perimeter wide receivers, the source doubts Nix can facilitate a Waddle bounce-back game and notes it has been difficult to watch all season.
