Throughout the game, the Pittsburgh Steelers pass rush was in the pocket disrupting Cousins as he was rarely able to find a rhythm. His average depth of target in this game was a poor 7.2 yards, which was one of the worst marks of the weekend.
However, coming off a torn ACL, the 36-year-old may need a few games under his belt to get back on track. He has a great opportunity in Week 2 as he will face the Philadelphia Eagles who allowed 260 passing yards to Jordan Love in Week 1.
Cousins is surrounded by elite talent in running back Bijan Robinson, wide receiver Drake London, the tight end Kyle Pitts which should help Cousins provide a solid floor on a weekly basis.
Nonetheless, given his poor performance in Week 1, fantasy managers should look for an alternative before slotting Cousins back into their lineup.
