Scotty Miller Fantasy

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers placed wide receiver Scotty Miller (toe) on Injured Reserve with a severe turf-toe injury on Wednesday. Miller will be out for at least three weeks and possibly longer. The 24-year-old saw the field more in the Week 3 loss to the Los Angeles Rams with Antonio Brown on the COVID-19 list, catching his first two passes of the season for 11 yards. If Brown is forced to miss another game this Sunday night against the New England Patriots, Tyler Johnson would likely serve as the No. 3 receiver behind Mike Evans and Chris Godwin. Johnson would probably only be worth a look as a DFS sleeper if tight end Rob Gronkowski (ribs) is inactive or limited during the game.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Scotty Miller (toe) is dealing with severe turf toe, according to head coach Bruce Arians. Miller is expected to miss a significant amount of time and is likely to go on Injured Reserve as a result. That means that he'll miss at least three weeks of action. With Antonio Brown and Jaydon Mickens out in the Week 3 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, Miller played 32 offensive snaps and caught two passes for 11 yards. Brown and Mickens could return in Week 4 against the New England Patriots, but Tyler Johnson figures to see more playing time with Miller out for the foreseeable future. After seeing only three targets in the first two games, Johnson saw six targets and caught three of them for 63 yards on Sunday.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Scotty Miller had a successful sophomore NFL season in 2020, posting his career-high totals with 33 receptions for 501 yards and three scores on 53 targets in 16 games. Miller was certainly a well-liked target of QB Tom Brady and that bodes well for the WR seeing targets in 2021. Miller should be considered as the WR4 on the team for this season and though there will be a lot of competition for targets, he should be expected to see some looks here and there. Because he isn't one of the top options in this receiving game, Miller shouldn't be considered anything more than a flex in deeper leagues.
