5 NFL Stats to Know Through Week 11

Kenny Golladay Amassed 25.3 PPR Points

It was widely expected that Kenny Golladay would begin to see an uptick in usage after the Detroit Lions traded away Golden Tate, and over the last two games, this expectation has been met. Golladay has a combined 27 looks in the last two weeks, with 14 of them coming in Week 11.

Golladay converted these targets into eight receptions for 113 yards and a score, giving him a career-high 25.3 PPR points against the Carolina Panthers. Fellow wide receiver Marvin Jones sat out the Week 11 game, which certainly helped skew targets towards Golladay. But you still have to do something with the targets, and Golladay did just that. The eight receptions were a career high, while he finished a yard short of equalling his previous best mark in yardage.

Given the short turnaround this week, it is possible that Jones will miss the Thanksgiving matchup against the Chicago Bears. Golladay saw 13 targets against the Bears in Week 10, and if Jones is forced out once again, Golladay could be in line for another healthy dose of targets.
