From the article

In a wild overtime game against Washington, Nabers had a season-high 28.3 points, catching 10 of 19 targets for 123 yards and a touchdown. Nabers has now produced two straight games of 23 or more points and a touchdown. Likely's 32.4 points were a career high, as he brought in 11 of 13 targets for 94 yards and two touchdowns. Game flow did play role here, but with the aggressive throwing mentality of quarterback Jameis Winston, both Nabers and Likely are set up with volume and big-play opportunities. Nabers should be played as a WR1 for the Week 6 game against the Saints
