Outlook Makai Lemon
Makai Lemon vs. Dallas — Volume Steady but Low Ceiling with McKee Under Center
Makai Lemon is operating as Philadelphia's starting slot receiver and avoided serious injury after quickly returning from the medical tent last week. While the rookie has maintained steady volume with 13 targets over his past two games, the Eagles' passing environment takes a major hit with Jalen Hurts sidelined, elevating Tanner McKee under center.
That quarterback shift drastically caps Lemon's fantasy ceiling. Our projections forecast just 2.4 receptions for 22 yards (4.9 fantasy points) against Dallas. Roster rates have slipped to 39%, and starting in just 4% of leagues reflects his minimal scoring equity. Fantasy managers should leave Lemon on the bench in standard leagues.

Konata Mumpfield at Las Vegas — Expanded Role Looming in a High-Scoring Spot
With Davante Adams recently landing on injured reserve due to a hamstring injury, Los Angeles will need others to step up behind Puka Nacua. Mumpfield operates as the Rams' primary slot receiver and should see additional routes in a projected high-scoring matchup against the Raiders.
Even with the vacated playing time, Mumpfield has managed just three targets over his last two contests and is rostered in only 3% of leagues. We project him for around 1.9 fantasy points on roughly 1.5 targets, making him a bench option outside of very deep formats until he proves his weekly involvement.
