Austin Hooper (TE, ATL) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues

OWNED IN: 19% of Leagues

ANALYSIS: Atlanta Falcons tight end Austin Hooper was held to three receptions for 24 yards by the Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles during the opening game of the season, but you could still make the argument that this underachieving tight end could end up being Matt Ryan’s second-favorite passing option (behind Julio Jones) this season due to the lack of receiving depth on the roster.

Atlanta has five of its next six games at home, which should also help Hooper. Take a look at Hooper in deeper leagues, but he has appeal in more shallow leagues as well.
