Strange easily leads the Jaguars in targets over the past three weeks with 21, including exactly eight targets in each of his past two games resulting in receiving lines of 7-95-0 and 7-68-0. The boost in usage launches him into the streaming conversation, though caution is warranted given his slow start (7-72-1 on 10 targets in Weeks 1-3) and crowded offense; he averaged just 5.0 targets and 9.8 fantasy PPG last season. He faces a Houston defense that has allowed the sixth-fewest fantasy points and zero TDs to tight ends this season.
