5 years agoOakland Raiders tight end Darren Waller will look to extend his hot streak this Sunday in a road matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. The 26-year-old has seen a heavy dosage of volume over the last three weeks, catching 21 of 25 passes for 294 yards, becoming the second tight end to eclipse 1,000 yards this season. Waller was held in check last time out versus the Chargers in Week 10 with just three catches for 40 yards, but he should see more volume in this game with the Raiders expected to play from behind. The Chargers have also surrendered three touchdowns over the previous four games at the position which bodes well for the 6'6" pass-catcher. His high-volume usage inserts him as a mid-range TE1 this week, with room for growth if he can snap his seven-game scoreless streak.--Riley Mrack - RotoBaller
