Week 3 at Pittsburgh Steelers
Versus the Ravens last Sunday, Jordan Akins caught all seven of his targets for 55 yards. As top WR Will Fuller was dealing with a hamstring issue, Akins owners had to be pleased that the veteran led the team in receptions, even if it was fellow TE Darren Fells who scored the team’s lone TD in the loss. Although Fuller should return and will steal targets from the other pass catchers, the Broncos were able to utilize Noah Fant at Pittsburgh last week. Consider Akins a TE2 play.
