STACKED’s take
Jefferson returns to top-10 WR with Wentz starting; averages 89.1 yards in his games.
Jefferson has been held to receiving-yard totals of 55, 32, 44 and 33 in four of his last five outings due to poor quarterback play from Kyler Murray in Kevin O'Connell's scheme. Murray's new hamstring injury gave the coaching staff a chance to make a change, naming Carson Wentz the starter for Monday's matchup with the Bills. With Buffalo's defense still being a work in progress, Wentz and company should be able to get the Vikings' passing game back on track. Jefferson has averaged 6.4 receptions and 89.1 receiving yards during the seven games where Wentz has played at least 80% of the snaps over the last two seasons, including an 8-92-2 stat line from the opener this year. This move pushed Jefferson back into the top-10 fantasy WRs and in the conversation for a spot in the top-five for as long as Wentz is under center.
