Fantasy football waiver wire-Week 11 pickups
Malcom Floyd-WR-San Diego Chargers (44.9%)
The Chargers lost Keenan Allen for the season in week 8, and in week 9 they lost on Monday Night Football to Zach Miller and the Bears. They also lost Malcom Floyd in that game in the second quarter before he had a chance to make a catch.
Floyd was expected to be the team’s top target after Allen’s injury, but his own injury prevented that from happening and put his season in question for a while. However, Floyd is going to try and rehab and play though his torn labrum the rest of this season which he has already stated will be his final one in the NFL.
Floyd is a high-risk, high-reward play since there are injury concerns and he hasn’t been a #1 option before. However, Floyd has tons of big-play potential and if he gets targets from Philip Rivers he’ll be a top-25 option the rest of the way.
