WR Alshon Jeffery has been a scoring machine lately for the Philadelphia Eagles. The sixth-year wideout has five touchdowns in the last four games. He will look to continue his scoring streak against the Seattle Seahawks Sunday night. Jeffery caught five passes for 52 yards and a touchdown in the Eagles’ blowout over the Chicago Bears. That marked his lowest receiving-yards total since Week 7. Jeffery has at least seven targets and four receptions in each of the last three games.

Sunday night Jeffery faces a Seahawks secondary decimated by injuries. The Seahawks lost cornerback Richard Sherman for the season and rookie CB Shaquill Griffin missed Week 12 in the NFL’s concussion protocol. They have incredible depth at corner, however. The Seahawks have been able to hold opposing receivers under 80 yards without Sherman and Griffin in the lineup.
Fantasy impact: Jeffery is on a roll, but Seattle is a different beast — the Seahawks have only given up eight touchdown receptions to wideouts this season. Jeffery does not need a lot of receiving yards to accompany his touchdown scores the last four games, however. He still should see enough action to make a fantasy impact Sunday night.
