SUMMARY
Wide Receiver Rank: #133   
Overall: #404


Avant started seven games last season, which was the second highest total of his career. He got the starts because of injury but did well in an expanded role. He had career highs in receptions and yards, topping 600 yards for the first time in his career. He had two100-yard games and multiple catches in all but five games. Even when not starting, Avant excels in his role as a No. 3 receiver for the Eagles. He is an ideal fit for this spot on the team. Avant isn't a speed burner, but runs good routes and makes some tough catches. Avant also can fill in as a starter if needed, posting some good numbers in that role when called upon.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
Avant is a serviceable reserve option in PPR leagues. He'll get you around 45 receptions for 550 or so yards. He won't score much, though, which hurts his value. He has just 10 touchdowns in six seasons.

Philadelphia Eagles WR Jason Avant posted eight receptions for a team-high 110 yards and a touchdown in Week 12 against the New England Patriots. Avant finished up the game as the de facto No. 1 receiver, as there are reports WR DeSean Jackson (foot) either left injured or was benched. Avant also left himself after having his wind knocked out, but he was able to return.
Fantasy Impact: Avant got more work with Jackson getting benched. He could have a bigger roll going forward if Jackson remains in the dog house.

Philadelphia Eagles WR Jason Avant said the team, which has a 3-5 record, will treat just about every game they play from here on out as a must-win. 'When you look at the film and thing like that, it's not a lack of effort or anything like that,' Avant said. 'It's just that we're not making the plays at the right time. I think from this point on, and even last week, we have to have a playoff mentality.'

Philadelphia Eagles WR Jason Avant had five receptions for 74 yards in Week 8 against the Dallas Cowboys. Avant has 23 receptions for 310 yards over his past four games.

Philadelphia Eagles WR Jason Avant called a players-only meeting Wednesday, Oct. 12, and he would not discuss what the team talked about. 'That stays in-house,' Avant said.
Fantasy Impact: Good to see the Eagles trying to get a handle on the situation.

Philadelphia Eagles WR Jason Avant is second to only WR Jeremy Maclin in catches with 23. He is almost halfway to reaching his career high of 51 catches set in 2010.
Fantasy Impact: Avant is worth a look in all format as he is getting consistent targets.

Philadelphia Eagles WR Jason Avant caught nine passes for 139 yards in Week 5 against the Buffalo Bills.
Fantasy Impact: Avant is the third option at receiver. He is capable of the big game but will be hit or miss.
