Trends

"Coker is entering his second NFL season after impressing as an undrafted free-agent signing in 2024. Coker stepped into a substantial offensive role in Week 5 and his route participation cleared 50% in each of his next 10 games. He handled a 16% target share (4.6 per game) from that point forward and averaged 9.3 fantasy PPG. He did nearly all of his damage with Adam Thielen or Xavier Legette sidelined, but did flash at times nonetheless, reaching 14 fantasy points three times. Coker figures to open 2025 behind first-round pick Tetairoa McMillan, Thielen and Legette on the depth chart, so despite his strong showing as a rookie UDFA, he's a long shot for fantasy value barring an injury or two above him on the depth chart."

"Coker impressed during Carolina's preseason matchup against the Browns, scoring Carolina's only touchdown of the 30-10 loss while finishing with a 2-17-1 receiving line. The second-year pro is competing with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette for reps in three-wide sets, with rookie first-rounder Tetairoa McMillan seemingly already having entrenched himself as Bryce Young's clear No. 1 wideout. It looks like Coker will have to wait until the Panthers' preseason finale against Pittsburgh on Thursday, Aug. 21 for his next chance to build exhibition momentum, however."
