Fantasy Verdicts
Derek Carr Unlucky
30 of 46 passing for 296 yards, 1 touchdown, 2 interceptions; 2 carries for 5 yards.

Verdict: The points matched the role, 11.4 expected.
No interceptions after 4 in the previous four games.

Evan Engram Ran hot
3 targets (17% of the team's), 3 catches for 38 yards and 1 touchdown.
