In those 3, the overall numbers are almost as balanced, with Higgins averaging 7.3 targets, Chase averaging 7.0, and Boyd averaging 6.

That said, Boyd has checked in with only 4 and 5 targets in two of those games, and had one big game with 9 targets.

It's something to keep an eye on. Our top 3 RB targets have dropped from 6.1 targets per game last year down to 4.8 this year, but part of that is losing Gio and upgrading at WR.

Chris Evans looks just as competent in the passing game so far. Every time we throw to him it’s seems like it’s a 1st down, or pretty close. I hope we get him more and more involved as time goes on. I’d rather see him get the ball out in space than waste a down throwing to Drew Sample.
