Darren Waller detonates for 200 yards, 2 touchdowns in Raiders win
Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller caught 13 passes on 17 targets for 200 yards and 2 touchdowns in a 31-28, Week 13 win over the Atlanta Falcons.
What It Means:
The yards are a career-best and the catches set a new season-high as the Jets simply couldn't do anything to stop Waller. It was his second 100-yard game of the year and also Waller's second outing with double-digit receptions. Waller is unlikely to find nearly as much success in Week 14 against an Indianapolis Colts defense that has been one of the league's best against tight ends.
Waller led all players on Sunday with 38.5 FanDuel points and he's second only to Travis Kelce among all tight ends this year in targets (102) and receptions (77). Waller will face a Colts defense in Week 14 allowing the third-fewest FanDuel points per game to tight ends (6.6).
