4. Sterling Shepard, New York Giants

It seems like Sterling Shepard hasn’t played all season, as he’s been nursing countless different injuries all season. In the games he’s played, he’s averages 8.6 targets per game as Daniel Jones’ go-to weapon. It appears he’s on track to finally return to game action.

Even with Mike Glennon at quarterback this week, Shepard will likely be a high-volume option, as the Giants are dealing with other injuries as well.

3. Russell Gage, Atlanta Falcons

Over the past three weeks, Russell Gage has amassed 241 yards on 27 targets and has emerged as a high-volume target for Matt Ryan with the absence of Calvin Ridley. He’ll again be startable this week against a stingy Carolina defense.

Gage’s volume should overcome a bad matchup with high volume, as he’s become Ryan’s go-to guy. He’s a PPR WR2 this week.
