Brandon Aiyuk Could Rebound In Week 17
2 years agoSan Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk has had an up-and-down past couple of weeks. Since Brock Purdy took over as quarterback, Aiyuk's target volume has decreased from eight per game from Weeks 6 through 13 down to less than five per game. Aiyuk may have a chance to take advantage of a favorable matchup in Week 17 against a vulnerable Las Vegas Raiders pass defense. The Raiders have allowed the sixth-most yards through the air this season. That being said, the Raiders only allow the 20th-most fantasy points to WRs because opponent passes are concentrated to RBs and TEs. Aiyuk projects as a WR3 with WR2 upside in Week 17.
