ESPN Fantasy Football on Chigoziem Okonkwo

Okonkwo's secure role and Rams' TE weakness support double-digit upside in Week 9.

Washington's TE1 has registered a snap share of at least 70% in three consecutive games. His 24 routes run in Week 8 ranked second on the team behind only Antonio Williams (27), while no other tight end on the roster ran more than two. This secure role sets him up nicely for a Week 9 matchup against Los Angeles, a defense that has invited the fifth-most targets to tight ends this season (67); the Rams just allowed nine tight end targets to the Chargers last week. With Terry McLaurin sidelined and the team likely forced into a passing script as 5.5-point underdogs, Okonkwo has the opportunity to flirt with double-digit fantasy points on Sunday.
