Rest-of-Season Outlook and Availability
Nailor is listed questionable.
Outlook
Vegas paid him three years and $35 million to fix exactly that. With minimal receiver competition added and Nailor slotting as a primary perimeter option, the projected jump to roughly 42-566-4 is well within reach if his target rate climbs. He flashed top-seven weekly WR ceilings whenever he saw five-plus looks last year. Full outlook

Jalen Nailor Rest-of-Season Outlook
depth WR for deep leagues only
Preseason Projection vs. Reality
He finished WR61 last season at 5.9 points per game.
Our Take After Week 4
Through 4 games he's WR88 at 2.5 PPR points per game, against 5.9 over 17 games last season (WR61). He's running behind last season's pace.
Last season he ranked 62nd of 142 in target volume (11.3% target share), 57th of 142 in downfield role (17.5% air-yards share) and 100th of 142 in efficiency (1.12 yards per route run). Efficiency is the soft spot. Kirk Cousins is his quarterback.
The next favorable matchup is the Bills in Week 6 (4th against WRs).
Read our preseason outlook (June 2026)
Published June 17, 2026. Kept for reference; the take above replaces it.
Nailor's 2025 line tells the story of a buried but efficient field-stretcher: 53 targets on a 72.7% route share, 444 yards and four scores, with 12.38 air yards per target and a 17.5% air-yards share that outran his 11.3% target share. The efficiency was real too, a 0.198 EPA per play and 50.9% success rate, with 12 red-zone looks signaling more scoring upside than his snap count allowed. He simply never commanded the ball, posting a 0.292 WOPR and just 1.12 yards per route run.
Vegas paid him three years and $35 million to fix exactly that. With minimal receiver competition added and Nailor slotting as a primary perimeter option, the projected jump to roughly 42-566-4 is well within reach if his target rate climbs. He flashed top-seven weekly WR ceilings whenever he saw five-plus looks last year. At an ADP near 151, he's a sensible late dart with weekly WR3 equity.
