Kendrick Bourne, the Arizona Cardinals wide receiver, didn’t mess around in Week 1, hauling in eight catches for 75 yards during their win over the Los Angeles Chargers. If you bleed green and blue like I do, you gotta know what this means for our upcoming Week 2 matchup.
Bourne’s Big Week 1
This guy was absolutely dialed in, catching all eight of his targets. Seriously, *all eight*. That’s not just good, that’s perfect, grabbing everything thrown his way. Only Trey McBride, another Cardinals player, stacked up more catches and yards than Bourne in that game. His performance was so strong it put him at WR17 in PPR fantasy formats even before that Monday night game was even played. He clearly made a statement with that kind of production.
What This Means for Our Defense
So why are we talking about an Arizona receiver so much right now? Because Bourne is already becoming a huge waiver wire target, and he’s going to be a flex candidate when the Cardinals come to town for Week 2. That means he’s definitely going to be a key piece for the Arizona offense when they face our Seattle Seahawks next week. Our secondary and pass rush need to know this guy is coming in hot, ready to make plays.
Bourne showed he can be a real problem for defenses right out of the gate. The challenge for our Seahawks is clear: shut this guy down and make sure he doesn’t repeat that Week 1 magic against us in Week 2.
