Lions WR Isaac TeSlaa caught both of his targets for 41 yards and a score in Saturday's preseason finale against the Texans. The TD came on a 'go' ball down the right sideline. TeSlaa got a step on his defender and made a smooth over-the-shoulder catch in the end zone.
HC Dan Campbell on TeSlaa: "He just continues to get better and better. Every time he makes a play, every time he does something, you gain the trust of everyone around you. ... We're very pleased with where he's at after six weeks of camp. ... I think there’s a place for him to help us early in this season.”
TeSlaa wraps up the preseason with 10 catches on 13 targets for 146 yards and three TDs. He tested as a 99th percentile athlete in the pre-draft process and has looked like it on the NFL field, flashing impressive burst, speed, and leaping ability.
TeSlaa is stuck in a crowded Lions offense and will still likely open the season no higher than fourth on the WR depth chart. But he could push WR Tim Patrick for the No. 3 spot, which would at least get TeSlaa on the field a good amount. At that point, an injury to either WR Amon-Ra St. Brown or WR Jameson Williams could make TeSlaa a fantasy factor.
He's become an exciting late-round target in best ball drafts and is squarely on the waiver-wire watchlist in lineup-setting leagues.
A quick look at the most important matchup data to consider when making Week 10 start/sit decisions, including implied points, projected plays, WR/CB matchups, and adjusted fantasy points allowed.
