STACKED’s take

Positive signalUsage

Nacua's fantasy ceiling could rise with increased goal-line usage.

Puka Nacua dominated as the WR1 but lacked goal-line usage, ranking behind Malik Washington and Sterling Shepard in Green Zone route share. A small shift in end-zone target ratio compared to Davante Adams could make him even more dominant.
