2. Christian Kirk, Arizona Cardinals

With all the points being made about A.J. Green’s expected success with Hopkins’ season-ending injury, the same can be said about Christian Kirk, and then some. Kirk actually leads the Cardinals in all major categories — targets, catches, and yards. If you’ve held onto him all year, you’re going to get a PPR WR2 for the playoff stretch.

Expect Kirk to see a heavy dose of volume as he will likely assume the number one role that is now vacant without Hopkins. This week is likely the last week he’ll be a sleeper.

1. Van Jefferson, Los Angeles Rams

Van Jefferson has three straight games with a touchdown as the primary deep ball threat for Matthew Stafford. Through those three weeks, he’s the WR24 in PPR leagues, which is good for a solid flex. He’s found his role in this offense with the loss of Robert Woods and the addition of Odell Beckham Jr.

Jefferson gets a golden matchup with Seattle, who allow the most passing yards per game in the NFL. He has loads of upside and can be played as a WR2 this week.
