DeVonta Smith Looks To Bounce Back In Week 2
Published: Sep 16, 2022 at 04:03 PM
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith will face the Minnesota Vikings in Week 2 on Monday night. The 23-year-old failed to catch any of his four targets last week, disappointing fantasy managers in a juicy matchup against the Detroit Lions. Smith is in a favorable spot to bounce back this week against Minnesota. The Vikings held Green Bay's bare-bones wide receiver corps to only 120 yards last week, but it will be more of a challenge to keep Philadelphia's receivers in check. After seeing how many times quarterback Jalen Hurts looked in A.J. Brown's direction last Sunday, Minnesota is sure to lock in on defending him, which should allow Smith to be open to make a few splash plays. With a smaller target share than last season, the second-year receiver profiles as a boom or bust flex option, which is precisely what fantasy managers should consider him in Week 2.
