Kelvin Harmon Fantasy

Washington Redskins wide receiver Kelvin Harmon was targeted five times in Sunday's loss to the Cowboys. He caught three of them for 33 yards. Even with Terry McLaurin out, Harmon couldn't get going as a primary receiving threat for Case Keenum. Harmon's second half of the season was encouraging; he racked up nearly 80% of his total receiving yards in the final seven games. But even with injuries befalling Washington's WR corps, Harmon largely served a complementary role amid a group of underwhelming skill players. How he factors into the offense going forward to next season remains to be seen, but the Redskins have more pressing questions on that side of the ball.

Washington Redskins wide receiver Kelvin Harmon was largely absent from his team's offensive attack for the second week in a row on Sunday. Harmon caught two passes on three targets and accumulated just 22 total yards in a loss to the Eagles. This is a discouraging trend for Harmon after he appeared to be carving out a spot in the pecking order in late November and early December. In any case, the fantasy season is at the point where owners just have to trust what their eyes are telling them. Harmon has dropped too far off the map to be considered a realistically safe bet in the late stages of the fantasy playoffs.

Washington Redskins wide receiver Kelvin Harmon could benefit from a tough Eagles run defense on Sunday. While Washington clearly prefers to run the ball and limit what is asked of Dwayne Haskins through the air, the Redskins may not be able to get away with that game plan against a Philly defense holding opposing running backs under four yards per carry. As such, the matchup may force Washington's hand into a more pass-heavy approach than it's comfortable with. If that's how it plays out, Haskins can't just throw the ball exclusively to Terry McLaurin and Chris Thompson all day. Someone else will have to find a way to contribute, and Harmon's chances were fractionally increasing in the three games prior to last week's one-catch, four-target outing. The risk here speaks for itself, but there's at least the possibility that game script works in Harmon's favor this Sunday.
