Eagles WR DeVonta Smith nabbed 9 receptions for 183 yards and a TD. The 79-yard score marked his longest career reception. And Smith's 11 targets led his nearest teammate (A.J. Brown) by five.
2025 Fantasy Football Impact
Smith led a resurgent Philly passing game that delivered a particularly strong second half.
He spent the first half garnering five targets among Jalen Hurts' 11 total attempts and catching four passes vs. just five total receptions for the rest of his team.
For the game, Smith accounted for:
- 47.8% of the team's targets
- 47.4% of receptions
- 56.1% of receiving yards
... and one of the team's three total TDs.
Brown remains the better weekly target bet, but this game serves as a reminder that Smith can lead the Eagles in receiving in any given week. Smith has garnered 10+ targets in two of his past three outings and 9+ in three of his past five.
It also marked the third straight week that Hurts set a season high in passing yards. That should make Philly passing-game pieces easier to bet on in fantasy lineups the rest of the way.
Week 8 brings an upside rematch with the Giants. That starts the fifth-best remaining schedule for WR scoring, according to our strength of schedule page.
