Should You Start or Sit Travis Hunter in Week 4?
A month ago, we were wondering just how good this offense could be. We were worried about the run game, but confident that Liam Coen could maximize this pass game and result in plenty of value at cost across the board.
- Week 1: 27 routes, 6 defensive snaps
- Week 2: 27 routes, 39 defensive snaps
- Week 3: 27 routes, 41 defensive snaps
Life comes at you fast.
Now, the rush game is the only thing we can trust. Travis Hunter is now a defender who plays offense, and we have to assume that sticks until proven otherwise. The next time he hits 35 receiving yards in a game will be his first as a pro, and while he continues to show glimpses (his lone catch last week was a five-yard pass that he took for 21 after making two defenders miss on a first-and-20 play), things are very much trending away from us.
I think you’re crazy if you’re cutting ties completely with Hunter after three games, but there’s also no way he’s deserving of a look at your flex spot, even against a hobbled 49ers defense.
If you want some exposure to this unique talent, embrace low ownership and do it through DFS.
