Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jeremy Maclin cooled off a bit for fantasy owners in the win over the Indianapolis Colts on Monday Night Football with four receptions for 45 yards and a touchdown. Maclin is still going to be highly involved in the offense as he received the bulk of the targets at 11. Tight end Zach Ertz was targeted six times and caught four passes for 86 yards.
Jeremy Maclin cools off for fantasy owners in win on MNF
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jeremy Maclin slowed down for fantasy owners with 45 receiving yards and a game-tying touchdown in the win over the Indianapolis Colts on Monday Night Football. We bring you the fantasy implications here.
Fantasy impact: Maclin is still the most targeted receiving option for the Eagles but it is clear he will yield targets to second year tight end Zach Ertz as well as offensive weapon Darren Sproles who led the Eagles in receiving on Monday night. Chip Kelly will continue to throw the ball as quarterback Nick Foles attempted 37 passes against the Colts. Maclin will remain a solid start in all fantasy leagues. In Week 3, the Eagles will face the Washington Redskins, who are currently 3rd in the league in pass defense after facing the Ryan Fitzpatrick led Houston Texans and Chad Henne led Jacksonville Jaguars.
