Darren Waller Looks To Extend Touchdown Streak
5 years agoOakland Raiders tight end Darren Waller had a disappointing Week 8 volume-wise, but he'll have a chance to right the ship this weekend versus the Detroit Lions. The 26-year-old caught a season-low two receptions in Week 8, but the good news is he led the team in targets with eight and found the end zone for the second week in a row. The Lions Defense has been susceptible against the pass this season, serving up the 10th-most FPPG to tight ends this season, including back-to-back weeks allowing a touchdown. Waller will continue to be Derek Carr's favored passing target, giving him a sturdy floor with his immense volume. Lock him in as a high-end TE1 in what could be a potential shootout.
