Amon-Ra St. Brown total receiving yards for Thursday's Christmas Day game between the Detroit Lions and Minnesota Vikings was coming in with an over/under of 74.5.
St. Brown leads the Lions in targets (144), receptions (98), receiving yards (1,194) and receiving touchdowns (11) and was just named to his fourth consecutive Pro Bowl but is questionable for Thursday's game as he deals with a knee injury. The sportsbooks do expect him to play.
He caught 4-of-9 targets for 54 yards in the Lions’ Week 16 loss to the Steelers.
Justin Jefferson caught 6-of-8 targets for 85 yards in the Vikings’ Week 16 win over the Giants.
He comes in with an over/under receiving yards total of 61.5 for Thursday's game.
From NBC Edge:
Jefferson has been seeing WR1 volume all year. He hasn’t given fantasy managers a WR1 performance in months. While he might not crack the top 12 for Week 16 when all is said and done, this is still his best showing by total yards since Week 6. Six catches are his best mark since Week 8. Jefferson notably converted multiple third downs with more than 10 yards to go. One came from J.J. McCarthy on the opening drive and the other was a miraculous, toe-dragging catch on a Max Brosmer toss near in the second half. With McCarthy banged up and Brosmer likely to start next week, Jefferson will be stuck on the WR2/3 border for the fantasy football championship week.
