Fantasy Football: Five Kansas City Chiefs To Play Vs Jacksonville Jaguars

Jeremy Maclin – WR

Projection: 5 Receptions For 40+ Yards and 1 TD

If you’re a Fantasy Football owner of Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Jeremy Maclin, it’s been a frustrating ride this year.  It’s hard to understand why, but Maclin has just struggled this year.  This past week against the Colts, he finally found the endzone.  However, the Chiefs star receiver caught just three passes on ten looks.  Not good.

Fortunately, I think that touchdown was what Maclin needed to get out of his funk.  A big play like that can do a lot for a player’s confidence.  Plus, with Nick Foles at quarterback this week, Maclin will get a few more deep ball attempts.  That might be just what he needs to put some pep back into his step.

Jeremy Maclin should still be a decent third receiver or FLEX in your lineup.  I do think the bounce back game is imminent, so keep an eye on him.  As a DFS play, you may be able to find a better option, but Maclin isn’t bad depending on how you’re building your roster.  The Chiefs look to be putting up points this week, so don’t be afraid of him.
