From the article
Cincinnati is coughing up 28 PPR PPG to opposing pass-catchers from the slot, the fourth-most in the NFL. That bodes well for Bernard, who has run 48% of his routes from the slot this season.

Bernard's slot role and man-coverage target rate align with Bengals' weakness to slot receivers.
Bernard faces a favorable matchup against the Bengals' man-heavy coverage scheme in Week 10. Cincinnati plays man coverage at one of the highest rates in football and allows 28 PPR PPG to opposing pass-catchers from the slot (fourth-most in the NFL). Bernard has run 48% of his routes from the slot this season and his 23% TPRR against man coverage is slightly ahead of DK Metcalf. In Week 3 when these teams met, slot receiver Roman Wilson caught three passes for 60 yards and a touchdown against the Bengals' man coverage, providing a comparable blueprint for Bernard's potential.
