WR1: Keenan Allen, Los Angeles Chargers ($6,800)

Appearing fully over his hamstring issue that plagued him for most of the year, Keenan Allen has returned to being the high-floor, high-volume option for Justin Herbert and the Los Angeles Chargers. This is especially evident in his past two games, catching 6-of-14 targets for 88 yards and a touchdown and 12-of-14 targets for 92 yards in back-to-back games.

Allen and the Chargers get another tough, playoff-caliber test in Week 15 against the Tennessee Titans, which will undoubtedly be one of the most competitive games of the week. Allen is one of the safest plays you can get in fantasy football when he’s in his groove, and we’re going to capitalize on that this week.

WR2: Chris Godwin, Tampa Bay Buccaneers ($6,700)

One of the other safest plays in fantasy football is Tom Brady’s security blanket, which has been Chris Godwin for the majority of Brady’s career in Tampa Bay. Godwin has seen six or more targets in 10-straight games, and his fewest catches during that span is five, which came last week. With Tampa Bay’s offense struggling to generate big plays, the dink and dunks will continue for Godwin.

The Bucs have a tough test against a red-hot Cincinnati team who will play them tough the entire game. This will lead to plenty of passing attempts from Brady, meaning plenty of work for Godwin and the rest of the Bucs’ skill position players. Godwin is a high-floor option for the lineup.

WR3: Garrett Wilson, New York Jets ($6,000)

The main beneficiary of Mike White’s resurgence of the Jets offense has been rookie wide receiver Garrett Wilson, who has seen at least seven targets and at least 78 yards in three straight games, leading him to three top-30 finishes in a row. Wilson’s big play ability and overall skillset are a refreshing sight for Jets fans who have seen their offense stall out far too many times this season.

Wilson gets the Detroit Lions who, again, are no longer a joke. They’ll play tough and competitively for all four quarters, making this an offensive game for the Jets, which should see Wilson put up plenty of numbers. He has top-15 upside this week.
