10 WR sleepers to target for fantasy football Week 2
By Jakob Ashlin
Fantasy football receiver sleepers for Week 2: Devin Duvernay, Baltimore Ravens
Rostered: 15.5%
Devin Duvernay had a breakout performance against the New York Jets in Week 1. He had four receptions for 54 yards and two touchdowns. Prior to the game, he had two receiving touchdowns in his NFL career.
Duvernay is a talented player, and after being buried behind players like Marquise Brown, Sammy Watkins, and Willie Snead IV on the Ravens’ depth chart over the last two years, he is finally getting the opportunity to play a significant role on offense.
I would not expect him to score two touchdowns every week, but he should consistently be in the FLEX conversation.
Fantasy football receiver sleepers for Week 2: D.J. Chark, Detroit Lions
Rostered: 51.1%
Chark played well in his first outing with the Lions. He recorded four receptions for 52 yards and a touchdown on eight targets.
Chark was a 1,000-yard receiver in 2019 for the Jaguars. After dealing with injuries, he is now fully healthy.
Due to his talent, Chark is an intriguing fantasy pickup. Still, playing in the Lions’ offense could slightly hamper his value, as quarterback play is still a question mark.
This week, he is a good option against the Washington Commanders, who gave up 275 receiving yards to a struggling Jaguars’ offense last week.
