Outlook Matthew Golden
Matthew Golden vs. Atlanta — Target Surge Signals Rising Fantasy Value
Golden is breaking out in his sophomore campaign, starting on the outside and earning 18 targets across the first two weeks—nearly half his rookie total. Head coach Matt LaFleur recently named him the team's offensive player of the game, and with fellow receiver Jayden Reed battling a neck injury, Golden's share of targets should remain firmly elevated against the Falcons.
Fantasy managers are taking note, as his start rate has surged to nearly 40%. Our weekly projection pegs Golden for roughly 4 receptions and 66 receiving yards (12.5 fantasy points). While he has yet to score a touchdown this season, his consistent target volume makes him a dependable WR3 or flex option for Thursday night's contest.

Outlook Jonah Coleman
Jonah Coleman vs LAR — High-Upside Stash Amid Backfield Injuries
Coleman is suddenly in the spotlight with both J.K. Dobbins and RJ Harvey nursing recent hamstring injuries. The rookie running back proved his durability by quickly returning to the field after a brief medical tent visit last Sunday, finishing his day with 10 rush attempts and three receptions.
Our weekly projection currently tabs him for around 4 to 5 fantasy points with limited baseline touches, but fantasy managers have already pushed his ownership up to 56%. If either starter is ruled out against the Rams, Coleman becomes a viable deep-league play with sneaky touchdown upside; otherwise, he remains an essential stash.
