Makai Lemon vs Dallas: Sneaky Target Volume in Altered Eagles Offense
Lemon enters the matchup healthy after shaking off a minor injury scare last week. Operating as the starting slot receiver, the rookie could see expanded looks with DeVonta Smith and Dallas Goedert battling injuries. With Tanner McKee under center, Lemon's steady role, drawing 13 targets over his past two games, keeps him actively involved in Philadelphia's passing attack.
Even with an elevated opportunity, Lemon profiles primarily as a deep-league PPR option. Our projections slate him for around 4 receptions and 28 yards on 6 targets (7.0 fantasy points). His shallow depth of target caps his yardage ceiling, but steady weekly volume provides a serviceable PPR floor if trailing game scripts force more passing.

Outlook Dylan Sampson
Dylan Sampson at Tennessee — Trending toward a return from injured reserve
Browns head coach Todd Monken anticipates Sampson suiting up against Tennessee after the running back practiced in a limited capacity all week. Operating as the primary backup behind Quinshon Judkins, who has also been managing an ankle issue, Sampson is poised to rejoin the backfield rotation following his stint on injured reserve.
Our projections currently reflect zero points while awaiting his activation, matching fantasy sentiment where he is rostered in 15% of leagues and started in virtually none. While Monken's optimism is encouraging, managers should check back before kickoff to confirm his status and keep him safely on fantasy benches until his workload stabilizes.
