Fantasy Life Articles on Jalen Coker
From the article
Coker's 28% target rate was better than ten of McMillan's games in '25. But look at how often Bryce Young catches the third-year receiver in stride or places the ball at the right location. Despite Coker and McMillan having the same aDOT (14.0), the winner of the Catchable Target Rate award goes to Coker (89% vs. 63%).
STACKED’s take
Coker's 89% catchable target rate and 28% target share position him as Panthers' WR1 over McMillan.
Coker, a UDFA, recorded 8 receptions, 138 yards, and 2 TDs in Week 1 against the Bears after returning from a quad injury that sidelined him in 2025. The source notes that when screening Coker's games from Week 7 onward last season, he emerges as Carolina's WR1 ahead of Tetairoa McMillan. In Week 1, Coker's 28% target rate exceeded ten of McMillan's games in 2025. Despite matching McMillan's aDOT at 14.0, Coker's Catchable Target Rate was 89% versus McMillan's 63%, indicating superior ball placement and timing from Bryce Young. With the Falcons, Browns, and Lions upcoming before Carolina's bye, the source prefers Coker as a WR3/FLEX over most other options.
