DeVonta Smith A Mid-Tier WR2 In Week 5

DeVonta Smith A Mid-Tier WR2 In Week 5

one year ago

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith will go on the road to take on the Los Angeles Rams in Week 5. The past two weeks have been slow compared to the hot two-game start the 24-year-old started the season with, where he finished as the WR16 and WR8 overall. Smith saw nine targets last week, his second-highest mark of the season, but finished as the WR24. A.J. Brown has dominated the target share the past two weeks, but Smith could be in for a bounce back against the Rams. Los Angeles ranks ninth in fantasy points per game allowed to the wide receiver position. However, they will have their hands full focusing on Brown, allowing Smith to take advantage in what should be a close matchup. Despite a few down weeks, the former Heisman winner should be considered a mid-tier WR2 in Week 5.
