Brandon Aiyuk Catches Touchdown In Blowout Win

one year ago

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk opened up the scoring for his offense with a 13-yard, first-quarter touchdown strike in their 34-3 win at the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday. Aiyuk looked like he might be on track for a monster day, but most of his involvement came early on as he only had one total target in the final three quarters. He finished with just three receptions on three targets for 55 yards and the touchdown. Aiyuk's fantasy day was capped in this one by a combination of a run-heavy game script once San Francisco had a sizable lead, being pulled from the game in garbage time, and the 49ers having numerous talented receiving options. He also had a would-be 16-yard reception called back for offensive pass interference after pushing off his defender. Aiyuk will remain a WR1 in Week 11 when the 49ers host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, whose defense entered the week tied for the league's highest rate of wide receiver fantasy points allowed per game.
