Ted Hurst runs 66 percent of his pass routes from the boundary and has been an air yards eater over the past couple weeks. On the season, Hurst is just five air yards short of Emeka Egbuka's team lead. Hurst is the living definition of a high-variance option, but that variance might include a long catch or two this week against a Packers secondary allowing the 11th highest EPA per target and tenth highest adjusted yards per attempt on boundary throws.

Hurst's air yards role offers high-variance upside against Packers.

Hurst is positioned well in Week 4 against Green Bay despite the Bucs' expected low passing volume. Running 66 percent of his pass routes from the boundary, Hurst has been an air yards eater over the past couple weeks and is just five air yards short of Emeka Egbuka's team lead. The Packers secondary allows the 11th highest EPA per target and tenth highest adjusted yards per attempt on boundary throws, giving Hurst high-variance upside with potential for a long catch or two.
