Efton Chism vs NYJ — Expanding Role Brings Deep-League Intrigue
Chism has steadily carved out playing time in New England's passing attack, boosted by a game-winning touchdown grab against Buffalo and praise from head coach Mike Vrabel. With Mack Hollins sidelined on injured reserve, Chism has secured more snaps as a rotational slot option, logging seven catches on 10 targets across his last two appearances.
Our models project him for 6.6 fantasy points on two receptions and 24 receiving yards as seven-point home favorites against the Jets. Fantasy managers are taking note with his roster rate climbing to 5%, but until he commands a consistent target share, he remains a speculative deep-league play or stash.

Outlook Brandin Cooks
Expanded Role in a High-Scoring Home Matchup
Cooks made an immediate splash last week by hauling in a seven-yard go-ahead touchdown on his first reception with San Francisco. With Deebo Samuel now sidelined by injury, the veteran speedster is positioned as the next man up for elevated snaps alongside Mike Evans in an undefeated 49ers offense.
While his playing time is slated to grow in a projected high-scoring contest against Washington, Cooks remains an unproven volume option after drawing three targets over his first two games. Our weekly projection expects 1.6 catches and 23 receiving yards (5.2 fantasy points), making him a touchdown-dependent deep-league play.
