Lemon had only a 16% target share while seeing only manufactured targets around the line of scrimmage. Lemon had a -0.25 aDOT with three receptions, five receiving yards, and 50% of his targets coming on designed looks. In a low passing volume offense, Lemon isn't even flex worthy with this type of usage. Sit Lemon in Week 2.

Lemon's predictable slot role and manufactured targets make him untrustworthy even in flex spots.

Lemon was Philadelphia's starting slot receiver (64.3% slot) in Week 1 but played only 66% of snaps with an 84.8% route share, creating a predictable passing tell for defenses. He had a 16% target share with a -0.25 aDOT, three receptions, five receiving yards, and 50% of targets on designed looks. The source advises sitting Lemon in Week 2, stating he is not flex-worthy in a low passing volume offense with this type of usage.
