What to expect from Ricky Pearsall in NFL Week 10
Pearsall's role in the offense
Ricky Pearsall has emerged as a key piece of the Los Angeles Rams' offense in recent weeks. The rookie wide receiver has caught at least four passes in each of his last three games, and he has scored a touchdown in two of those contests. Pearsall is expected to continue to play a significant role in the Rams' offense in Week 10 against the Arizona Cardinals.
Pearsall is a versatile receiver who can line up in the slot or on the outside. He is also a dangerous runner after the catch. Pearsall's speed and athleticism make him a matchup nightmare for opposing defenses.
Pearsall's matchup against the Cardinals
The Cardinals' defense has been one of the worst in the NFL this season. They are allowing an average of 29.5 points per game, and they have given up at least 30 points in six of their nine games.
Pearsall should have a good opportunity to produce against the Cardinals' defense. He is likely to draw coverage from cornerback Byron Murphy, who has been struggling this season. Murphy has allowed a passer rating of 107.3 this season, and he has been targeted 56 times, which is the most in the NFL.
Pearsall's fantasy outlook
Pearsall is a good fantasy option in Week 10. He is a high-upside receiver who has a good matchup against the Cardinals' defense. Pearsall is a strong start in all fantasy formats.
Here is a projection for Pearsall's fantasy performance in Week 10:
- Receptions: 5-7
- Receiving yards: 70-100
- Touchdowns: 1-2
