Peoples-Jones should serve as the No. 3 wide receiver moving forward following news that Odell Beckham (torn ACL) is out for the season, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.
Beckham left on the first drive of the game, so Peoples-Jones received his first real opportunity as a receiver afterwards. The rookie capitalized, reeling in all three of his targets for 56 yards and a game-winning touchdown. The increased volume should continue, as he's expected to slot in as the No. 3 wideout behind Jarvis Landry and Rashard Higgins. The upcoming Week 8 matchup against the Raiders is favorable too, as Las Vegas has allowed the fifth-most passing yards per game (283.3) this year.
