FantasyPros Articles on Germie Bernard
From the article
Last week, with Roman Wilson getting hurt, Germie Bernard stepped up with a 78.8% route share (65.4% slot rate), 25.8% target share... Bernard is a viable flex this week, but the matchup is tougher, and the coverage structure isn't really in his favor.
STACKED’s take
Bernard's expanded role (25.8% target share) faces Tampa Bay's single-high coverage, which suppresses his efficiency.
With Roman Wilson injured last week, Bernard stepped into a significant role with a 78.8% route share (65.4% slot rate), 25.8% target share, 80 receiving yards (3.08 YPRR), one red zone target, and a 15% first-read share. Bernard is a viable flex this week, but faces a tougher matchup against Tampa Bay, which has the second-highest single-high rate in the NFL (65.2%). Against single-high coverage, Bernard's target-per-route run rate stays consistent at 21%, but his YPRR drops from 1.97 (against two-high) to 1.26. Tampa Bay has allowed the 13th-fewest yards per target and ninth-fewest fantasy points per opportunity to slot receivers.
