What is up with Green Bay Packers receiver Randall Cobb? He was expected to bust loose this season with receiver Jordy Nelson out for the year, but he's not even a WR2 in PPR for the season. Plus, he hasn't missed any games due to injury.
Fantasy football start/sit, Week 13: Randall Cobb still not himself
Randall Cobb has been a bust this season. Should fantasy owners use him on a Thursday?

The good news is that Cobb is finally trending up. He's scored double-digit fantasy points in PPR for every game since the Week 7 bye. Perhaps this is due to James Jones cooling off or maybe quarterback Aaron Rodgers is improving.
Cobb gets his second game of the year against the Detroit Lions. In the first outing, he caught five passes for 53 yards. The Packers are in a dome for this one, so the weather won't be a factor. Plus, Rodgers doesn't have bad home-road splits.
Fantasy impact: As much as Cobb hasn’t been great, he looks like he should be able to get it going. Fantasy owners can view him as a mid-level WR2.
