As we head into the last quarter of the NFL season, your fantasy team is probably has a few unexpected holes. Whether it be because of injury or just a slumping player, your team needs a boost as we head toward fantasy playoffs, and I have 3 players who can push you to a championship.
Josh Reynolds Wide Receiver Los Angeles Rams:
With Cooper Kupp lost for the year due to a torn ACL, someone will have to fill his place in LA. The Rams offense tends to run a lot of 3 wide receiver sets,so whoever takes over Kupp’s spot is in line for a lot of snaps. At this point it looks like Josh Reynolds is going to be that guy. In his first game filling in for Kupp, Reynolds caught 6 passes for 70 yards and a touchdown. Reynolds looks to be trending up in a super explosive Rams offense and could put up some huge numbers over the next 6 weeks.

Gus Edwards Running Back Baltimore Ravens:
Baltimore has pulled a full switch in there backfield, replacing Joe Flacco with Lamar Jackson and Buck Allen with Gus Edwards. Edwards was an unknown to most fans, but his tremendous week 11 open many eyes. Edwards ran for 115 yards and a touchdown in his first career start. Edwards has proved to be more effective then Buck Allen and should hold onto the starting job long term.

Tre’Quan Smith Wide Receiver New Orleans Saints
The Saints have had a full slate of injuries in there receiving core, with Ted Ginn, Cameron Merideth, and Dez Bryant all going down for the season. That has left the Saints with almost no options behind Mike Thomas. Smith has been given the opportunity for extra snaps after all the injuries and has looked stepped up. Smith has had decent games all year, and in week 11 Smith put up 157 yards on 10 catches, and should produce for the rest of the year.
