Even though Jermaine Gresham (Achilles) was upgraded to questionable after getting in some limited practice last week, Ricky Seals-Jones looks poised to continue playing a big role in the Arizona Cardinals' offense.
He hasn't yet done much damage in fantasy football in 2018, but he did notch 6 targets in each of his first two games. Those 12 targets leave him tied for eighth among tight ends to start the year. Those are also good for second on the team, behind Larry Fitzgerald (15) and ahead of David Johnson (11).
While he was never likely to keep up the huge 1.79 point-per-target pace he hit last year, his 0.88 in 2018 is especially low. Among tight ends with at least 50 targets in 2017, the average in that category sat at 1.03, while only 5 of the 26 posted a mark below 0.90. Even if we don't see Seals-Jones reach his lofty 2017 mark again, 2018's sample-size is still smaller than last year's was, and we can likely expect an improvement in efficiency moving forward.
