Should You Start or Sit Jalen McMillan in Week 15?
McMillan was one of the breakout stories of Week 14, scoring a pair of touchdowns in the 28-13 win over the Raiders. The 21.9 PPR fantasy points were great to see, but with just 11.7 expected points to show for that role, I worry about the sustainability.
Through 13 weeks, the rookie was producing 26.7% below expectations, further increasing my concerns that last week was anything other than a flash in the pan. If you trust 2+ months of data over a strong four quarters, you’d have expected McMillan to score 8.6 points last week; if that was the case, would we be having this discussion?
He has a 50% catch rate for the season — with just 119 air yards over his past three games, there’s not enough upside in this profile for me to Flex him.
