The sophomore has been been frustratingly inconsistent, logging four games with four or fewer targets, and has exceeded 60 receiving yards just twice. He has much more upside if Harrison suffers an injury at some point, but in very deep leagues, he's not a bad starter. He doesn't have a ton of value for leagues with 12 or fewer teams, though.
He's the third priority in the passing game due to the presence of tight end Trey McBride, and the tight end's elite level of play means that's unlikely to change any time soon. It's tough to envision a bigger role for him in this iteration of the offense.
