Two more catches in loss
Erickson caught two of his five targets for 29 yards in Sunday's 13-12 loss to the Chiefs.
ANALYSIS
The 31-year-old joined the active roster Week 11 and, after injuries to Joshua Palmer (knee) and Keenan Allen (heel), somewhat miraculously emerged as the team's top target. finishing with 16 receptions for 232 yards, both of them higher figures than his past three seasons combined. It's safe to say the veteran wideout won't be a highly sought-after free agent despite the positive small sample size, but it's possible Erickson could at least make a preseason roster given his special teams acumen.

Erickson has appeared in 99 NFL games but has only 96 career catches, as the 30-year-old wide receiver has played predominantly on special teams. He'll compete for a roster spot with the Jets in 2023 and could contribute as a return man, but Erickson's unlikely to carve out a substantial role on offense.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
On roster bubble?
Erickson may have a hard time making the Bengals' final roster in 2020 due to some offseason additions, ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Erickson has been a nice story since earning a spot on the team after going undrafted in 2016. However, the Bengals are already deep at wide receiver and still added rookie pass catchers Tee Higgins and Scotty Washington during the offseason. The Wisconsin product's value on special teams also diminished last year, as he was relegated to punt returner only. He is on the last year of a two-year contract and could save the team $1.9 million if ultimately let go.
