Injury flagged players are usually identifiable as outliers in these chars. This week in WR, Danny Amendola is still questionable, which also explains the high variance of Kembrell Thompkins.
As you can see, the WR rankings this week are not as tiered as they usually are. They are fairly well behaved until WR45 or so, where it starts to get noisy.
