Pats WR Danny Amendola to receive boost if Chris Hogan is out

Nov 10, 2017

In his mailbag column, New England Sports Network writer Doug Kyed said he expects Danny Amendola "to receive the biggest boost in targets and receptions" if Chris Hogan were to miss this week's game.

UPDATE: Hogan has been ruled OUT for Week 10.

Fantasy Impact:

Phillip Dorsett is also in the mix, but he hasn't caught a pass since Week 4. Amendola has been targeted at least five times in every game he's played this season, except one, but even then he saw four targets.

In what our aFPA metrics deem an extremely difficult matchup for WRs against the Broncos, we currently have Amendola ranked as a top-36 WR in both standard and PPR leagues.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Related Players: Eric Saubert

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
