Austin Carr scores in Saints’ win.

Carr made a nice three-yard catch in traffic at the front of the end zone for his lone reception in the Week 11 win over the Eagles. This was Carr’s first touchdown reception as a Saint, and he’ll look to catch more moving forward. Carr isn’t a fantasy option right now, though.

Benjamin Watson did not catch a pass in Week 11.

Watson didn’t appear to get much playing time against the Eagles. The veteran tight end could always be good for a score with Drew Brees throwing him the ball, but he offers a zero-point floor each week.

Dan Arnold catches two passes against the Eagles.

Arnold gained 25 yards on his two receptions, including a 23-yard reception, in the Saints’ Week 11 win. Arnold isn’t a recommended fantasy option right now.

Josh Hill catches two passes in Saints’ win.

Hill gained 26 yards on his two receptions against the Eagles. The number of weapons in the Saints offense makes it difficult to trust Hill in fantasy lineups.

Keith Kirkwood catches three passes in Week 11.

Kirkwood gained 33 yards on his three receptions, doing his damage early in the game before other members of New Orleans’ offense had huge games. Kirkwood is playing well and appears to have the trust of Drew Brees, so he’s not a bad FLEX option in deep leagues.

Michael Thomas scores in Week 11.

Thomas was targeted four times against the Eagles, but as usual he was extremely efficient with his opportunities, catching four passes for 92 yards and a touchdown. The score was a 23-yarder where he beat the corner off the line of scrimmage and had the help of Drew Brees beating the safety with a dime to the front pylon. Thomas also added a 30-yard reception in the blowout win. In Week 12 against the Falcons, Thomas will be about as safe as it gets in fantasy lineups.

Travis Benjamin held without a catch in Week 11 loss.

Benjamin was targeted three times, but he and Philip Rivers haven’t connected in nearly a month. The speedster can stay on the waiver wire heading into Week 12.
