Steelers WR George Pickens drew a game-high 12 targets in Sunday's win over the Ravens. That also marked a season-high for him and matched his largest target share of the year at 33.3% of QB Russell Wilson's pass attempts. It was his fifth game with 30% or more this season but a significant rebound vs. the previous two weeks (17.9% and 14.3%).

Those two contests stand as outliers for Pickens, who ranks 10th in the league in target share for the season. His 8 receptions vs. Baltimore marked a season high -- against a defense that arrived as the league's friendliest to WR scoring.
Pickens gets four more positive matchups over the next 5 weeks, though:
- at Cleveland
- at Cincinnati
- vs. Cleveland
- Baltimore again in Week 16
It's the league's third-best remaining schedule by adjusted fantasy points allowed to WRs.
