Ted Hurst vs. Packers — Expanding Role Meets Backup Quarterback Uncertainty

Ted Hurst has stepped into an expanded role on the outside with Jalen McMillan sidelined, drawing 10 targets and scoring a touchdown over his last two outings. However, the offense faces major uncertainty with starting quarterback Baker Mayfield out due to a thumb injury, handing the reins to backup Jalon Daniels against Green Bay.

Our weekly projection forecasts Hurst for roughly 4 targets, 2 receptions, and 30 receiving yards (around 6.3 fantasy points). While his perimeter involvement is growing, the quarterback downgrade and low projected team total cap his immediate ceiling. Rostered in just 2% of leagues, Hurst is best treated as a bench stash rather than a lineup option.

Outlook Matthew Golden

Matthew Golden at Tampa Bay — Ascending Target Share Elevates Weekly Floor

Fully healthy and starting on the perimeter opposite Christian Watson, Golden is rapidly becoming a focal point of Green Bay's passing attack. Following a 100-yard, one-touchdown performance and with Jayden Reed sidelined on injured reserve, Golden has commanded a notable 30 targets through his first three contests.

Our weekly projection forecasts roughly 3.5 receptions for 58 yards and 12.2 fantasy points against Tampa Bay. With his start percentage climbing up to 69%, fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into their lineups as an upside WR2 or strong flex option.
