10 Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Targets Heading Into Week 2
Tarik Cohen flashed in the preseason and saw a huge workload on Sunday. Who else should you look to add to your roster as the dust settles following a hectic Week 1?

Allen Hurns, WR, Jacksonville Jaguars

Another big injury story this week was Allen Robinson going down with a torn ACL, which will cost him the entire season.

Robinson accounted for 24% of the Jacksonville Jaguars targets last year and 37% of their air yards (ranking 8th in the NFL), and his absence leaves a ton of volume unaccounted for.

The Jags only attempted 21 passes as they played with a lead all game against the Houston Texans, and Allen Hurns' 4 targets were tied for a team-high, accounting for a pretty solid 19.0% of their total.

Jacksonville isn't going to spend the whole year playing with the kind of game script that they were afforded in Sunday's 29-7 victory. Hurns should see a significant bump in volume moving forward with Robinson out.
