Ravens WR Kamar Aiken gets more involved

Oct 04, 2016

In one game, Kamar Aiken matched what he had done in his first three.

In Sunday’s 28-27 loss to the Oakland Raiders, the Ravens wide receiver caught three passes on four targets – both of which matched numbers in his first three games. He gained just nine yards on those three receptions, but that was nearly half of the 19 yards he had entering the game.

Aiken’s disappearance after leading the offense last season in catches (75), yards (944) and touchdown receptions (five) had been a much-scrutinized topic, but he appeared to be more involved in the offense on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact:

Aiken had some mistakes however, including a pass interference that negated a 20-yard gain. With Steve L. Smith and Mike Wallace big factors this year, Aiken seems to be getting lost in the mix. The return of TE Dennis Pitta probably isn't helping either.

“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

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.
