It took eight seasons, but Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Kenny Britt is currently on track to have the first 1,000 receiving yard season of his NFL career. He only needs 13 more yards to reach the mark that has not been accomplished by a Rams pass catcher since Torry Holt did it back in 2007.

Fantasy Impact: Britt should have no trouble reaching his career milestone this week when he and Los Angeles go up against the San Francisco 49ers.
This season, the 49ers are giving up the third most fantasy points per game to opposing wide receivers. 11 different players from the position group have gained at least 75 receiving yards in a single game against San Francisco this year.
For Saturday, Yahoo! is projecting Britt to catch five passes for 65 yards and one touchdown. There really seems to be no downside to starting the Los Angeles wide receiver for fantasy owners this week.
