Van Jefferson is a fantasy football waiver wire pickup option for wide receivers. Target him as a free agent add off waivers for Week 10 of the 2021 NFL season.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 12% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: In a game full of disappointment for the Rams, Jefferson had the most disappointing night of all. In a plus matchup, he only caught three of seven targets for 41 yards. He was targeted in the end zone and had chances to make a big play downfield but showed inconsistency with his hands. He still has a strong path toward flex value going forward as the team no longer has DeSean Jackson on the roster and Tutu Atwell's season is over, so the second-year receiver will continue to operate as the third receiver in a top-five Rams offense. He has some strong metrics, including 16.0 yards per reception (11th among receivers), 13.5 yards average target distance (12th), and 30.4 expected points added (20th). The schedule isn't ideal as the Rams get the 49ers and Packers next, with their bye sandwiched in between. Jefferson should still be rostered in deeper fantasy formats.
