Stefon Diggs has taken that job (for now)...Diggs has a higher target share (23.8% to McLaurin's 20.6%)...McLaurin is actually fifth on his own team...averaging just 0.9 yards per route run...Washington will be playing backup quarterback Marcus Mariota
STACKED’s take
McLaurin's target rate is fifth on his team; backup QB worsens outlook vs. Seahawks.
McLaurin is making his second appearance in Matt Okada's fade column in three weeks. Despite running more routes than any Commanders receiver (68), Stefon Diggs has a higher target share (23.8% to McLaurin's 20.6%). On a per-route basis, McLaurin is fifth on his own team in target rate, behind Diggs, tight end John Bates, rookie Antonio Williams, and running back Rachaad White. McLaurin is averaging just 0.9 yards per route run and has seen just two red-zone targets (one catch for six yards, one interception). Against Seattle, the Seahawks secondary has allowed the fourth-fewest yards per target (5.4) and third-lowest passer rating when targeted (28.9) to outside wide receivers, with just 10.3 fantasy points per game and 0.69 points per target to all wide receivers (both fewest in the league). Washington will start backup Marcus Mariota with Jayden Daniels sidelined.
