Our read
Written Oct 17, from his facts through last season
Four catches on seven targets through five weeks of 2026, 1.1 points a game, and nothing at all in weeks 4 and 5 of 2026. That is not a slow start, that is a receiver who has fallen out of the picture in Atlanta. He has been active every week, so there is no injury to blame. Zero touchdowns on the season, too. The move from CHI was supposed to be a fresh start, but he landed third on the depth chart behind Drake London and Jahan Dotson, and London and Kyle Pitts took 53% of ATL's targets between them in 2025.
Even the 2025 season that got him here was thin. 85 points, WR75, a 13.2% target share and an average depth of target of just 7.1 yards, WR185 among 223. His yards per target dropped from 8 in 2024 to 5.2, and players in his spot have shed 0.9 points a game from one season to the next on average. Our preseason number was 67 points at a 4.8 pace over 14 games, and he is running nowhere near that. Last year's best week was 17.8 points back in week 9 of 2025, and he cleared 15 points in just 1 of his 14 played weeks.
We would let him go and use the roster spot on a receiver with an actual week-to-week path. Kevin Stefanski and Tommy Rees are new, but five weeks of zeros tell you all you need. If a deep league forces a hold, week 11 of 2026 is his bye, so the decision makes itself before then.
