Positive signalMatchup

Lemon's 16.3% target share and Washington's slot coverage weakness offer flex upside.

Makai Lemon had his best game of the season against a horrible Dallas secondary, finishing as the WR13 for the week. Over the last two weeks, Lemon has posted a 16.3% target share, 1.13 YPRR, 1 red zone target, and 21.4% first-read share. With DeVonta Smith and Dontayvion Wicks out, Lemon offers some flex upside this week. Washington has allowed the 13th-most fantasy points per opportunity to slot receivers while ranking 16th in yards per target allowed to the position over their last five games.
