. . KEON ZIPPERER. C+.

We were all impressed when Zipperer bulldozed the entirety of the state of Tennessee for a touchdown last weekend. But, that’s kind of all he’s done this year, which is why I have him as a C+.

On the season he’s got 9 catches for 119 yards, 44 of which were on the TD in Knoxville. These aren’t bad numbers by any stretch in this offense.

Zip has been good in the run-blocking game and has answered the bell when he’s targeted on passing downs.

I’d expect his involvement to remain static for the rest of the season, with about 3-4 receptions a game, and I’d hope to see a few more red zone targets for him to try and score.
