DeMario Douglas Is a Risky Week 9 Fantasy Play Against the Green Bay Packers

DeMario Douglas is coming off a strong game against the Miami Dolphins in which he caught all three of his targets for 76 yards and a touchdown. This added to his season total, which is now 332 yards and four touchdowns.

The speed in which Douglas has is something that has led to him being an encouraging fantasy option. As the New England Patriots get set to face the Green Bay Packers, this is a matchup where Douglas should end up actually being benched in fantasy.

Douglas has thrived with big plays, but those won’t come as easily against the Packers as they are allowing the second-fewest explosive pass rate in the NFL. Douglas can still produce, but without his explosive element, there is concern that his output could be limited compared to what managers are used to getting from him.
