Fantasy Football Start 'Em Sit 'Em 2022 NFL Week 9: Wide receiver rankings

Week 9 Fantasy Football Wide Receivers: Sit 'Em

Allen Robinson II - Los Angeles Rams vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

With the exception of Cooper Kupp and Tyler Higbee, the Los Angeles Rams have been extremely disappointing in the 2022 Fantasy Football season. Newcomer Allen Robinson II was projected to make a major impact with the team this year, but he has mostly failed to do so.

Robinson currently ranks just 59th in total PPR fantasy points this year. He has also finished outside of the top 75 in four of his seven games this season. He is unlikely to turn things around against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. They rank in the top 12 in Fantasy Football points allowed per game to wide receivers.

Rondale Moore - Arizona Cardinals vs. Seattle Seahawks

Rondale Moore bounced back nicely in Week 8 after a disastrous Week 7 performance. When DeAndre Hopkins made his first appearance of the season, Moore was targeted just twice by Kyler Murray. He carved out a bigger role in game two, earning eight targets.

Moore has finished inside the top 40 in fantasy points just once this season, making him difficult to trust outside of favorable matchups. Week 9 isn't one of them. The Seattle Seahawks allow the third-fewest Fantasy Football points per game to wide receivers.

Jakobi Meyers - New England Patriots vs. Indianapolis Colts

Jakobi Meyers has been the lone bright spot in the New England Patriots' passing game. He currently ranks inside the top 30 wide receivers in Fantasy Football. He has finished in the top 40 in PPR points in each of his last five games, including two top-10 finishes.

While Meyers is a decent Fantasy Football option any week, he should be avoided in Week 9, if possible. The Indianapolis Colts are one of only two teams, along with the Denver Broncos, allowing fewer than 20 fantasy points per game to opposing wide receivers.
