- Jonathan Taylor is arguably the best bet for a multi-touchdown game this week: Taylor’s usage and success in the red zone this season are already elite, and he draws a great matchup this week.
- Christian McCaffrey’s dominance spreads to the red zone as well: McCaffrey is dominating touches for the San Francisco 49ers, both on the ground and through the air, and he has a positive matchup to deliver again this week.

The high-scoring areas of the field are the most valuable areas of opportunity for our fantasy football assets. This report will keep track of each team’s top performers in that area of the field, as well as the players getting the most opportunities in the red zone. Adding even more fantasy value to this report, we’ll also include each team’s opponent and their effectiveness when defending in the red zone to identify our best matchups.
Note: Plays called back due to penalties or plays with pre-snap penalties will not be included within the player data.
