NFL
7 Deep Fantasy Football Sleepers for Week 15
Joe Flacco has been red hot and gets to face the Browns on Sunday. What other low-owned options should you be considering in Week 15?

Kendall Wright, WR, Chicago Bears

Yahoo! Ownership: 5%

Just when we are about to give up on Kendall Wright, he comes out with his best game of the season. This past Sunday versus the Cincinnati Bengals, Wright hauled in 10 catches for 107 yards, both season-highs.

The Chicago Bears' slot receiver had averaged just 30.8 yards per game leading up to Week 14, indicative of a season where he had more no-catch games (2) than touchdowns (1). Wright isn't all to blame for the lack of production, as the Bears run the most conservative offense in the NFL, ranking last in pass attempts, completions, and yards.

Last week though, they intentionally attacked Cincinnati with short passes, to Wright's benefit. Against a softer pass defense of the Detroit Lions in Week 15, we could see more of the same.

The Lions allow the sixth-most passing yards in the NFL (247.0) but have been worse recently. Detroit has given up 269.3 yards per game the last three weeks, including 269 to Baltimore, who ranks 30th in passing yards per game.
