Fantasy impact: Colston is playing well at the right time for his fantasy owners. He has three touchdowns, 217 yards receiving and 17 catches in his last two games combined.
Quarterback Drew Brees has targeted Colston 33 times in the last three weeks. That's a lot of looks. What should be exciting to fantasy owners is that Colston played huge against the Carolina Panthers two weeks ago and in Week 15, the same two squads face off in Carolina.
Although that matchup has major league playoff implications and the Panthers defense will be poised for a big game at home, Colston has to be looked at as a must-start next week. He’s at his best right now, something that hasn’t happened been the case enough this year.
