        Makai Lemon Bound to be Disappointed When Teammates Return

        Eagles WR Makai Lemon continued to take advantage of injury absences at his position in Sunday's loss to the Giants. He led the team in targets (9), receptions (6), and receiving yards (61) as new starting QB Joe Milton threw for just 169 yards on 18-of-34 passing. It was Lemon's third straight game with at least 8 targets and 6 catches. WR teammates DeVonta Smith and Dontayvion Wicks missed all three of those contests with injuries. WR Darius Cooper followed Lemon with 8 targets against the Giants but managed just 2 catches.

        Eagles WRs DeVonta Smith (hamstring) and Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) are out for Sunday’s game vs. the Giants. Both guys remained sidelined in practice all week. Philadelphia will again roll with WRs Makai Lemon, Darius Cooper, and Hollywood Brown this weekend. Lemon is the top fantasy bet but comes with a low floor in QB Joe Milton’s first career start.

        The Eagles are benching QB Tanner McKee for QB Joe Milton vs. the Giants this weekend, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. McKee mustered just 5.6 yards per attempt with 2 TDs and 2 INTs against the Panthers, Cowboys, and Commanders over the last three weeks. Sunday will mark Milton's first career start after backing up Drake Maye in 2024 and Dak Prescott last year.

        Makai Lemon followed up his career-high 19.7 PPR points by hauling in six of a team-high 9 targets for 57 yards on his way to 11.7 PPR points for a WR3 finish in Week 8. He’s now posted his best two outings over the past two weeks with both WRs DeVonta Smith and Dontayvion Wicks out for consecutive games.

        Eagles WRs DeVonta Smith (hamstring) and Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) are out for Sunday night’s game vs. the Commanders. That should again leave Darius Cooper and Hollywood Brown as Philly’s primary outside receivers, with Makai Lemon manning the slot. Lemon, coming off a 7-67-1 line last week, is the only bankable fantasy play here.
