Fantasy owners may be disappointed with how little Allen Robinson, Allen Hurns, and Julius Thomas are doing in Jacksonville, but they have to be pleased with what Marqise Lee has done.
Fantasy football start/sit advice, Week 8: Marqise Lee an intriguing play vs. Titans
Believe it or not, Marqise Lee has been the top receiver in Jacksonville in recent weeks. Will that continue vs. Tennessee?

Through six games, Lee leads the the Jaguars in catches (29) and is second in receiving yards (337). Over the past two games, he has caught 13 passes for 168 yards on 14 targets.
Blake Bortles may be struggling this season, but he has found good chemistry with Lee. Jacksonville hopes that will continue in Week 8 vs. the Tennessee Titans on Thursday Night Football.
Fantasy Impact: Yahoo! ranks Lee as the 46th-best wide receiver in Week 8. However, he faces a Titans defense allowing the 10th-fewest points to receivers this season.
Even though Lee has been producing recently, it is still too early to start him on your fantasy team. He needs to show he can continue to produce in an offense where Robinson and Hurns are getting the bulk of the targets.
Keep Lee on the bench this week.
