5 players who disappointed in fantasy football in Week 8
Davante Adams
Davante Adams is struggling with the Las Vegas Raiders and it isn't entirely his fault. He finished the game on Monday night against the Detroit Lions with only one reception for 11 yards on seven targets.
However, two of those targets could have been long touchdowns if Jimmy Garoppolo had thrown catchable passes. Unfortunately for Adams, it has been like this for most of the season.
In Week 3, Adams had his best game this year with 13 receptions for 172 yards and two touchdowns but since that game has not had more than 75 receiving yards in a game and no touchdowns. In fact in his last four games, he has had four or fewer receptions in three of them.
Davante Adams is still a Top 5 wide receiver in the NFL but unfortunately is producing like a WR3. It is tough to bench him in fantasy football at this point but if this trend continues, there may not be any other options.
