Amon-Ra St. Brown

Fantasy Upside
In his third NFL season, Amon-Ra St. Brown once again eclipsed 90 receptions, this time really out-doing himself with a 119-1,515-10 season on 161 targets, the fifth-most in the league. He was one of the most consistent, valuable assets in all of fantasy, but particularly in PPR leagues, where he scored less than 15.0 points in 3-of-16 games. There's no reason to believe that's not replicable, considering rookie tight end Sam LaPorta gobbled up 120 targets and still didn't impact St. Brown's zone-beating role.

Fantasy Downside
Does Jameson Williams develop into a world-beating downfield target that Jared Goff can't help but look for ten times a game? That might be the only way St. Brown doesn't repeat his target-hog performance.

2024 Bottom Line
Amon-Ra St. Brown is the focal point of a passing attack that saw him finish fifth in YPRR (2.91) and accrue the second-most first downs (44) against zone coverage last season. Expect him to continue moving the chains for one of the best offenses in the league and finish as a high-end WR1 in 2024.

Week 16 at Minnesota Vikings

Sure enough, Amon-Ra St. Brown bounced back from his quiet day in Week 14 with 112 yards and a touchdown in Week 15 against the Broncos. The Vikings defense has gotten much better but St. Brown is matchup-proof at this point. He helped get you to the fantasy playoffs, you're not turning away from him now. He's a top-five option this week as you look to reach the fantasy championship.

Week 14 at Chicago Bears

Week 13 was a very rare quiet day for Amon-Ra St. Brown. Even that still included a touchdown. Week 13 simply belonged to Sam LaPorta. St. Brown should bounce back against a Bears team that he had 77 yards and a touchdown against three weeks ago. Look for Jared Goff to get the Sun God fed again. He'll be just fine.
