Concepcion finally broke out for an 8-129-0 line on a season-high 10 targets in last week's win over the Titans, and has been targeted eight or more times in three of his seven games this season. His -17.9 fantasy points over expected ranked third-lowest among all receivers behind only Michael Wilson and Courtland Sutton, suggesting Concepcion should have been averaging more than the 7.0 PPR points per game he had over that span.

Concepcion's breakout 10-target game caps a season of underperformance; WR3/FLEX play this week.

Through the first six weeks, Concepcion ranked 34th in expected fantasy points (59.3), t-21st in targets (35), 29th in routes (158), and 32nd in TPRR (22.2 percent), with -17.9 fantasy points over expected (third-lowest among all receivers behind only Michael Wilson and Courtland Sutton), suggesting he should have been averaging more than 7.0 PPR points per game. Concepcion finally broke out for an 8-129-0 line on a season-high 10 targets in last week's win over the Titans and has been targeted eight or more times in three of his seven games this season. He draws a semi-tough matchup against the Steelers (14th in fantasy points allowed to WRs this season), but over the last five weeks, Pittsburgh has allowed the eighth-most PPR points per game (36.5) to opposing WRs. With high-end options on bye, Concepcion is in the conversation as a WR3/FLEX play as he looks to build on last week's breakout.
