Jaguars tight end Marcedes Lewis is on a hot streak, but is facing a poor matchup Week 17.
The Colts do a great job limiting tight ends, allowing them to average just 5.60 Fantasy points per game. Indianapolis has only allowed 20 passing touchdowns through 15 games this season. Only three have gone to opposing tight ends. The team also does a good job limiting yardage, holding tight ends below 50 yards this season.
Lewis has become a main target of Chad Henne. With Justin Blackmon suspended and Cecil Shorts out, Lewis has become the team's only reliable target in the passing game. He's now scored in four straight games, and will look to make it five against the Colts. Lewis was limited earlier in the year by an injury, and may have finally gotten over his issues in the past month or so. The team has specifically drawn up plays for him in the red zone over the past few games. It's a tough matchup, but if anyone is going to catch a passing touchdown for Jacksonville, it's going to be Lewis.
