Jalen Coker Sees Role Shrink

Panthers WR Jalen Coker ranked second on the team with 36 receiving yards in Sunday's win over the Saints. But he caught just two passes among 3 targets while seeing decreased usage vs. Week 8.

2024 Fantasy Football Impact

Coker ran a route on just 45.3% of Carolina dropbacks, ceding the starting spots to fellow rookie Xavier Legette and David Moore.

Coker figures to face a bigger challenge as soon as Week 10, if veteran WR Adam Thielen's ready to return.

Coker's more of a potential long-term fantasy asset than a 2024 redraft target.
