Yahoo Fantasy Football on Malachi Fields
From the article
Since the switch to J.J. McCarthy at quarterback, Fields has seen a 19 percent target share in back-to-back games, including a WR20 fantasy performance in Week 7 against the Texans... the Giants' receivers will have the tenth-easiest remaining schedule, including fantasy playoff matchups against the Lions and Cowboys.
STACKED’s take
Fields' 19% target share with McCarthy and tenth-easiest schedule post-bye signal breakout potential.
Malachi Fields is available in at least 90 percent of Sleeper App leagues and will likely get dropped during the Giants' bye week this week. Once Fields returns to action in Week 9, he and the Giants' receivers will have the tenth-easiest remaining schedule, including fantasy playoff matchups against the Lions and Cowboys, both of which are in the top six in fantasy points allowed to wide receivers. Since the switch to J.J. McCarthy at quarterback, Fields has seen a 19 percent target share in back-to-back games, including a WR20 fantasy performance in Week 7 against the Texans. McCarthy's tendencies as a passer play to Fields' strengths; both players tend to thrive downfield, especially outside the numbers, and McCarthy's gunslinger approach works in tandem with Fields' contested catch abilities. The rapport between Fields and McCarthy could grow into a higher-volume relationship that leads to more touchdowns and explosive plays downfield.
