Robby Anderson Fantasy Overview and Current Status
Robby Anderson is a wide receiver for the New York Jets in the NFL. He has been a consistent fantasy option since entering the league, with his best seasons coming in 2018 and 2021 when he recorded over 1,000 receiving yards. In 2024, he remains a relevant flex and deep-threat option in many fantasy formats. His current fantasy ranking is in the mid-tier for wide receivers, with strong upside in PPR leagues due to his speed and route-running ability. Anderson's role with the Jets is primarily as a secondary target to Garrett Wilson, but he still produces reliable weekly numbers for fantasy managers. NFL fantasy rankings for wide receivers
In 2023, Anderson caught 44 passes for 588 yards and 4 touchdowns across 15 games. His fantasy points per game averaged around 12.5 in standard scoring, making him a viable streamer in deeper leagues. The Jets offense under new coaching staff in 2024 is expected to maintain a balanced attack, with Anderson positioned as the number two or three receiver. His salary on major fantasy platforms like DraftKings and FanDuel typically ranges from $5,500 to $7,000 in tournaments, reflecting his low-end floor and high-end ceiling potential. Anderson's durability has been a concern, as he missed 5 games in 2023 due to a hamstring injury, but he has remained healthy in training camp so far this year. ESPN Robby Anderson stats page

2024 Fantasy Football Projections
Major fantasy football sites project Anderson to finish with 55 to 70 receptions, 750 to 950 receiving yards, and 4 to 6 touchdowns in 2024.
