Berry closing out on Downs; 16% target share and Keenan Allen's dominance are concerning.

Matthew Berry is closing out on Josh Downs, ranking him WR41 this week. Over the last three weeks, Downs is averaging 7 fantasy points per game with just 16% target share; Keenan Allen has gotten more targets than Downs in each of the past two weeks. Matchup against Minnesota Vikings (fifth-fewest fantasy points allowed to WRs) is unfavorable. Berry notes the offense is not scheming Downs open despite preseason optimism.
