Ja'Marr Chase Fantasy

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase finished with only four catches for 81 yards during the win over the Dolphins on Thursday night. Once again, the sophomore was overshadowed by a fellow wideout, with Tee Higgins accumulating seven receptions for 124 yards and a touchdown. It's fair to say Chase hasn't met expectations so far this season. However, he's due to rebound at some point, and it could happen as soon as the Week 5 divisional showdown versus the Ravens.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase had 10 catches for 129 yards and a score in Week 1 against Pittsburgh. However, his production has dipped over the last two games, with the wideout combining for only 11 receptions for 83 yards and a touchdown. With Miami next on the itinerary, the former LSU Tiger has an excellent opportunity to make some noise for fantasy managers. The Dolphins defense hasn't done an effective job getting to the quarterback this season, which may allow Chase more time to run his routes and get some deep shots from Joe Burrow. In addition, Miami has allowed 497 air yards, the fifth-worst mark in the NFL. With Dolphins safety Brandon Jones (chest) and cornerback Xavien Howard (groin, glute) in danger of missing this one, the odds that Chase will have an impactful showing on Thursday night continue to increase.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase had a team-high 10 targets during the win over the New York Jets in Week 3. Yet, despite catching six of them, he only amassed 29 yards on the afternoon. Fortunately, he found the end zone, his second of the year. It's safe to say the 22-year-old hasn't lived up to expectations this season. In all fairness, the Bengals offensive line has limited Joe Burrow from making his throws. However, Chase will likely explode at some point, so fantasy managers should keep him going against the undefeated Dolphins on Thursday night.
