BALLER MOVE: Sit In Most Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR5
ANALYSIS: Parker Washington was a decent desperation option for fantasy football in Week 10. Then, word came out that Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) was unlikely to play.
Washington, a second-year receiver from Penn State, picked up the second start of his career last week with Christian Kirk (collarbone) on injured reserve and Gabe Davis (shoulder) sitting out. He caught three passes for 41 yards.
The stat line was nothing special but the matchup for Week 10 is far easier. Washington goes from facing a surging Philadelphia secondary to Minnesota, which allows the second-most fantasy points to receivers this year. They're even more susceptible from the slot.
Mac Jones x Parker Washington 👀
Vikings allow a ton of production to slot WRs this season.
4th most yards & T-2nd TDs allowed WRs lined up in the slot.
If you need the help why not 🤷🏾♂️ https://t.co/vuNz1UplrS

With Mac Jones under center, the Jacksonville passing game gets a downgrade across the board. But if a fantasy manager is desperate enough, Washington should be involved and could pick up double-digit PPR points. He could also be invisible if Davis and Brian Thomas Jr. are healthy.

The wide receiver is an important position in PPR fantasy football leagues.
