Davante Adams Injury Update

Las Vegas Raiders WR Davante Adams

Davante Adams was limited in practice on Saturday and has been listed as questionable with a shoulder injury. The three-time All-Pro is a top-10 fantasy start amongst receivers this week.

He is first in target share and second in raw target volume according to FantasyPros. Adams is listed first in red zone targets and in the top 15 in deep targets.

The wideout will face a Green Bay defense that plays their share of zone coverage. Adams has a 34.1 percent target share and 51.8 percent air-yard share. He has an astonishing 52.9 percent first-read share against a zone defense.

In other words, the Las Vegas star loves zone defenses. Fantasy managers should expect Adams to be a full-go and produce some points.
