Who Should I Start? A.J. Brown or Chase Brown

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown converted his lone target into an eight-yard reception during Thursday's season opener against the Dallas Cowboys. It was an uncharacteristically quiet day for the veteran receiver, as he wasn't targeted until the Eagles' final offensive drive of the game. There's no question that he is still the alpha receiver in Philadelphia, so this seems to be a mere blip from which he should be able to bounce back. He'll have a chance to get redemption during Week 2 in a potential shootout against the reigning AFC champion Kansas City Chiefs.

Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown had a slow start to the 2024 campaign, at least in the first three games. However, after establishing himself as the clear No. 1 option on the depth chart, there was no looking back. He would go on to finish the year by finding the end zone 11 times while barely missing the 1,000-yard rushing mark. The Bengals will begin the year with a Week 1 matchup versus the Cleveland Browns. Brown didn't play his best in two meetings with the Browns in 2024, combining for 33 carries for 135 yards and only 27 yards off five grabs. To be fair, he had trouble from a consistency standpoint against all of the teams in the AFC North. Although that makes him a risker DFS option, he's still a must-start in season-long fantasy setups.
