60% route participation but can't draw targets; speculative deep shot upside vs. man coverage

Kyle WilliamsWR

Kyle Williams has taken over the deep threat role from Mike Evans with approximately 60% route participation, but he has been unable to draw targets despite the increased opportunity. Week 1 showed 2.40 yards per route and 9% route participation; since then, 0 targets across multiple games. However, facing a more aggressive team that plays man and single-high coverage could create shot-play opportunities. College profile shows he was second in draft class in yards per route against man coverage. Vrabel expressed excitement about his opportunity, noting he's been thrown to a lot and is now comfortable. Mispriced at mid-salary, could be a speculative flyer in game stacks, though he could also be a complete zero with four targets.
