Kendall Wright, WR, Chicago Bears

Yahoo! Ownership: 8%

Over the last two weeks, Kendall Wright has cemented himself as the go-to receiver for Mitchell Trubisky in the Chicago Bears' offense. He has had his best two games of the season in Weeks 14 and 15, bringing in 17 catches for 188 yards. That has ranked him as the ninth-best receiver in PPR leagues during the stretch (35.8 fantasy points). In fact, only Michael Thomas and Jarvis Landry have caught more passes the last two weeks than Wright. In Week 16, the Bears will be hosting the winless-Cleveland Browns -- everyone's favorite fantasy target.

Slot receivers like Wright have thrived against the Browns. Golden Tate and Adam Thielen brought in 97 yards and a score earlier this year against them, while Randall Cobb racked up 8 catches versus Cleveland just two weeks ago. Overall, the defense ranks 29th in the league in points allowed (25.3) while giving up 27 passing touchdowns this season, tied for the second-most in the NFL, making the Bears' offensive weapons nice plays in Week 16.
