With Marvin Harrison now in Houston, Bourne has stepped into a meaningful role for the Cardinals' passing attack. Bourne's 59 routes run since Week 5 are the second-most of any Cardinals receiver, while his 16 targets and 27.1 percent targets per route rate (TPRR) lead all players on the team—including Trey McBride (22.6 percent TPRR). He has turned his 16 targets into 10 receptions for 117 scoreless yards, finishing as PPR WR26 and WR39 in his last two games. His 28.5 expected fantasy points are good for 15th-most among all receivers. Tied to an offense that ranks third in early down pass rate (56.7 percent) and expected to be without Jeremiyah Love (ankle) for at least one more week, Bourne could be on the fantasy radar as a fringe WR3/WR4 play even against a stout Broncos defense.NegativeProjectionOct 22, 2026
