CAR WR Devin Funchess - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 vs. Miami Dolphins

Devin Funchess should be the main guy in Carolina following the trade of Kelvin Benjamin to the Bills. He’s already been acting as the primary target for much of the season, averaging 7.2 targets per game, and he hasn’t been targeted less than 6 times since Week 1. Funchess had 5 catches for 86 yards last week, and he has shown significant improvement in all aspects of his game this year.

This week, Funchess faces a Dolphins pass defense that has been very average this season. They rank 15th in passing touchdowns allowed and 14th in passing yards allowed per game. Funchess is a high-floor player with a large target share, and he should be good for WR2 numbers this week in all league formats.

CAR WR Devin Funchess - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 vs. Atlanta Falcons

Devin Funchess only caught 2 passes for 11 yards last week against the Bucs, but he was targeted 6 times on the day, and he is now the WR1 on the team after the Panthers traded Kelvin Benjamin to the Bills before the Tuesday trade deadline.

Funchess will face a Falcons defense ranked 14th in passing yards allowed per game and is pretty average across the board defensively. Regardless of the matchup, Funchess has WR2 potential each week with Benjamin out of the picture. Fantasy owners should grab him and use him in all league formats.

CAR WR Devin Funchess - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 at Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Devin Funchess had 4 catches for 41 yards last week against the Bears as the Panthers struggled to move the ball. He was targeted 8 times, however, and he has been targeted at least that many times in five straight games. Funchess looks light years ahead of where he was his first two seasons and is worth a roster spot in all league formats.

This week, Funchess has WR2 upside against a Bucs defense that has allowed more fantasy points per game to the WR position than any other team this year. While he’s not a consistent option by any means, the matchup says he’s worth a gamble if you need some bye week relief.

CAR WR Devin Funchess - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 at Chicago Bears

Devin Funchess had a disappointing game against the Eagles, catching only 3 passes for 36 yards. However, he was targeted 9 times and was still an active part of the offense, making it likely that his increased role and value over the past four games should continue, at least to some extent.

This week, Funchess faces a Bears defense that has been very average against the pass, but 6-of-8 touchdown passes they’ve allowed this year have been to opposing WRs. He should be considered a fringe WR2/WR3 option in most leagues due to his heavy volume over the past few games.

CAR WR Devin Funchess - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 vs. Philadelphia Eagles

Devin Funchess is averaging 5.5 catches, 63.25 yards, and 0.75 touchdowns over his past four games, and has 7 receptions in each of his past two games. He had 53 yards and a touchdown against the Lions last week and looks like he’s taken a leap in his third season.

This week he faces an Eagles pass defense allowing the second-most fantasy points per game to opposing WR. He should benefit from continued improvement throughout the Carolina offense. He may be a bit touchdown dependent, but could be worth considering as a low-end WR2 in this matchup.

CAR WR Devin Funchess - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 at Detroit Lions

Devin Funchess caught 7-of-9 balls thrown his way last week against the Patriots for 70 yards and a pair of touchdowns. He has now been targeted 19 times over his last two games and looks to have taken a step forward in his third season.

It’s hard to trust Funchess, especially against a Lions pass defense that has given up only 4 touchdown passes all season, but he’s definitely worth rostering given his recent production, and he should be considered a low-end WR3 option in most leagues this week given the volume of targets he’s been receiving since Greg Olsen was hurt in Week 2.

CAR WR Devin Funchess - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 at New England Patriots

Devin Funchess has 8 receptions and 16 targets over the past two games. While his 126 yards over that span doesn’t pop out, the increased usage in the passing game is encouraging. Funchess may stand to benefit from additional targets after the Greg Olsen injury from Week 2 and with Kelvin Benjamin on and off the field with nagging injuries.

This week, Funchess has some deep, deep sleeper potential against a Patriots team that has allowed 8 touchdown passes this season and the most passing yards to opposing offenses in the league. Don’t sit a more reliable option for him, but if you’re desperate, Funchess could benefit from additional looks against a vulnerable defense.
