STACKED’s take
McConkey's efficiency and snap share surge signal positive regression to flex.
McConkey caught four of six targets for a season-high 86 yards in Week 8 (12.6 points), his second-best fantasy output of the year, against a stingy Rams defense that has surrendered the fifth-fewest fantasy points per game to wide receivers. He logged a season-high 90% snap share in Week 8 (14th-highest among all wide receivers that week and just his second game north of 50%). Among 86 wide receivers with at least 193 snaps, McConkey ranks 10th with an efficient 2.57 yards per route run (YPRR); every other wideout averaging 2.4 YPRR or better is producing at least 13 fantasy points per game, leaving McConkey (8.6) as a prime candidate for significantly positive regression. McConkey has scored double-digit fantasy points in all three games in which he was targeted five or more times this season. With volume, efficiency, and health finally aligning, McConkey can be elevated to flex consideration in a favorable matchup against Houston this weekend.
