He finished the day with seven catches for 149 and a TD. What’s even more impressive is that he was only targeted seven times, so he made the most out of every opportunity he was given.

It certainly helped Douglas that Roddy White also missed the game. While White will come back eventually, probably, Jones won’t, so Douglas will remain a starter. Douglas has spent several years serving as Atlanta’s No. 3 receiver behind Jones and White, and has never had a real chance to step up until this week.

Be sure to pick up Douglas in any league he’s available in, but don’t expect him to necessarily produce at the blistering rate he was on Sunday, even in Atlanta’s pass-happy offense.
