He didn't turn it into much production, with the Seattle Seahawks' entire offense struggling on Sunday, but Paul Richardson saw a solid seven targets against the Green Bay Packers. The seven looks tied for a team-high -- three more than any other Seahawks wide receiver -- and accounted for a hefty 25.9% of the team's targets. For context, only 9 wideouts saw 26% or more of their team's targets overall in 2016.

Jermaine Kearse averaged 5.5 targets per game as Seattle's number-two wide receiver last season. Combining Richardson's Week 1 workload with the fact that they elected to trade Kearse and start Richardson means that he could continue to see plenty of opportunities moving forward, although Tyler Lockett may continue to see more snaps as he gets back to game shape following last season's broken leg.

The Seattle offense is also unlikely to continue struggling the way they did this week. They finished 2016 ranked 14th in Adjusted Passing NEP per play, and Richardson's volume will likely start to include a fair number of scoring opportunities, as well.
