START ‘EM – WR

57. . Wide Receiver. Bears. Taylor Gabriel. 3. player

While Taylor Gabriel wasn’t great for fantasy purposes last week, but before that, he was on fire. He should get back to those double digit performances, as the Bears get a lousy Jets defense this weekend.

The Jets have been torched by receivers this season and even though Gabriel isn’t the starter, he’s had some really good games. Allen Robinson might also not be playing, which will increase the workload Gabriel could get.

Per Fantasy Pros,

"With Allen Robinson either out or likely limited, Gabriel is going to see plenty of opportunities this week, making him a relatively safe WR3 who comes with some serious upside."

This means Gabriel will be a great option for WR2 or flex in week eight.
