Ja'Marr Chase

Joe Burrow returned to action this week and wasted no time rekindling his affinity for throwing Chase the football. Chase racked up a gaudy 30 percent target share. His 110 yards were 75 more than any other Bengal. Chase Brown also caught seven passes and no other player brought in more than two balls. Chase and Burrow weren't on the same page for every throw, but Burrow still gave him looks at every level of the field, including a deep shot that netted the Bengals' 43 yards. It was their longest play of the day. As you'd expect, Chase will contend for the WR1 overall spot in a likely shootout with the Bills next week.

After a slow start to the year, Brown has quietly turned into one of the league's most efficient runners over the past two months. He has averaged over five yards per carry in five of his past six games. Burrow's return kept that momentum rolling as he posted 5.2 yards per carry. With Tee Higgins out this week, Brown also stepped up through the air, tying Ja'Marr Chase for a team high in catches. Brown has at least six catches in three of his past four appearances. The only downside of his Week 13 performance is that Samaje Perine mixed in for 14 carries. Perine was far less effective, averaging a measly 2.8 YPC, but the Bengals' coaching staff didn't seem to care. He will continue to be a thorn in Brown's side heading into Week 14. A phenomenal matchup versus the Bills' run defense will keep Brown in the RB1 mix next week.

Chase brought in seven of 14 targets for 110 yards in the Bengals' 32-14 win over the Ravens on Thursday night.
