Jonathan Mingo is a fantasy football waiver wire pickup option for wide receivers. Target him as a free agent add off waivers for Week 7 of the 2023 NFL season.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 8% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Jonathan Mingo has yet to have that one big game, but his snap share, route participation, and target total indicate that the game is coming. He left Week 3 early due to a concussion, but in Weeks 1-2 and Weeks 5-6 (he was inactive in Week 4), Mingo's route participation has been above 85% in all four games.

It has been over 95% in three of those four games, with the lone non-95% game coming in Week 5 in his first game back to action following his concussion. His snap share has been over 85% in all four games he was able to start and finish. Prior to Week 6, he had recorded at least five targets in each game except his Week 3 contest cut short by his concussion.
Mingo has the opportunity and through six weeks, he's on pace for 99 targets. While the production hasn't come yet, some of that is understandable. For starters, Mingo is a rookie and a rather raw one at that. Quarterback Bryce Young is also a rookie.
Young also missed one game, which meant a quarterback change to veteran Andy Dalton. For a rookie getting this much opportunity and receiving that many targets, it's a reasonable bet to expect the production to come.
