Tyler Boyd Set For Increased Opportunities
6 years agoWith A.J. Green sidelined, emerging stud Tyler Boyd will take over as the lead receiver in the Bengals offense. When Green left the game back in Week 3, Boyd exploded for six catches, 132 yards, and a touchdown. Green's 9.5 targets are up for grabs, and Dalton will surely be looking to Boyd as the main beneficiary with only Alex Erickson and John Ross serving as his competition for looks. Though he may receive increased attention defensively, Boyd should square off against slot cornerback PJ Williams, who has been getting torched all season. Consider Tyler Boyd a high-end WR2 who has a chance to break into the top-10 among wide receivers this week.
