Yahoo Fantasy Football on Jalen Coker
From the article
he's averaged 11.2 air yards per target and 20.5% of his targets have come on deep passes this season (nearly twice as high as the rate for Tetairoa McMillan).
STACKED’s take
Coker's deep-ball reliance clashes with Broncos' elite downfield coverage and Young's pressure woes.
Coker is a complementary fade to Bryce Young due to the Panthers' offensive line injuries and Young's pressure issues. He has just three catches on 10 targets all season when Young is pressured and just three catches for 45 yards during the past two weeks' downturn. While he had a brilliant 97-yard game against the Eagles three weeks ago, Philadelphia is currently the best matchup for wide receivers, so that game should be taken with a grain of salt. Coker has averaged 11.2 air yards per target with 20.5% of his targets on deep passes (nearly twice as high as Tetairoa McMillan's rate). Denver has allowed the fifth-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers and the fourth-fewest yards per target on downfield throws (10+ air yards). Coker is outside WR2 range and a very risky play in the meantime.
