Devaughn Vele vs. Browns — Slot Consistency Offers PPR Flex Value
Operating as the Saints' primary slot receiver alongside Chris Olave, Vele has quietly put together an efficient campaign, already surpassing his 2025 numbers in catches, yards, and scores. Coming off a five-catch, 54-yard, touchdown performance, he remains a dependable intermediate target for Tyler Shough, particularly if Alvin Kamara is limited by a lingering back injury.
While rostered in nearly 74% of leagues, fantasy managers have started him at just a 16% clip, viewing him primarily as a depth piece. Our projections anticipate another steady showing with 3.7 receptions for nearly 40 yards (9.5 fantasy points). Facing a Cleveland defense in a projected lower-scoring battle, Vele profiles as a safe, floor-based PPR flex starter.

Derrick Henry vs. Jacksonville — Lead Role in a Shorthanded Offense
Henry remains the clear lead back in Baltimore's offense ahead of Justice Hill, though the unit faces a major test with Lamar Jackson sidelined due to a thumb injury. With the Ravens enduring a three-game losing streak and trade speculation quietly surfacing, Henry will be counted on to stabilize the offense on Thursday night.
Our weekly projections expect Henry to see roughly 15 carries for 63 rushing yards and an edge in scoring opportunities with 13.8 projected fantasy points. While opposing fronts may stack the box without Jackson threatening outside, Henry's goal-line role keeps his floor secure, and fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into their lineups across all formats.
