NFL
8 Fantasy Football Sleepers for Week 14

Pierre Garcon, WR, Washington

While this matchup looks like a rough one on the surface with the Philadelphia Eagles ranking third in Adjusted Defensive Passing NEP per play, they have actually allowed the league's sixth-most fantasy points per game to opposing wideouts. They've also conceded big games through the air recently, having allowed 20-plus fantasy points to at least one wideout in each of their last six games.

Pierre Garcon has seen nice volume, averaging a shade over seven targets per game while accounting for a team-high 20% of Washington's passing targets over their last four games.

While that volume gives Garcon a reasonable floor, Washington's receiving weapons also offer nice upside on a weekly basis, as the team ranks fifth in goal-line pass-to-run ratio. They have a 23.25-point implied total this week, and that will likely spell some scoring opportunities in the passing game.
