Pierre Garcon expected to return in Week 11: Fantasy implications
Washington Redskins wide receiver Pierre Garcon is expected to return in Week 11, according to a report. We break down the fantasy implications.
Derick E. Hingle-US PRESSWIRE
Garcon has been limited in practice and has been determined to avoid season-ending surgery. Garcon suffered the injury in Week 1 and has only been active for three games this season. The Redskins face the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 11.
Fantasy Impact: Garcon is worth having on a fantasy roster but is not expected to be 100 percent on Sunday. Fantasy owners should wait for more information before even considering putting him in a lineup this week.
Garcon is no better than a No. 4 wide receiver or low-end flex play if he’s active on Sunday. Fantasy owners should look elsewhere.
