Who Should I Start? A.J. Brown or Justin Jefferson

The Philadelphia Eagles are "looking to get A.J. Brown involved more and early" on Sunday against the Kansas City Chiefs, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. He noted that the Eagles had several plays dialed up for Brown to get more targets last week, but they didn't work out, and the star receiver finished Week 1 with just one reception. Based on Garafolo's comments, it appears that last week should be treated as an anomaly, and Brown will be more involved in Week 2. An increased target share could come naturally for Brown as the Eagles will be without Dallas Goedert (knee), who caught seven passes in the season opener.

Following a humbling loss to the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday, Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson said the team is being patient with their new starting quarterback, J.J. McCarthy. The superstar receiver still managed 81 yards on three catches, but the Vikings' offense has been mostly awful through two games. The second-year quarterback played in just his second NFL game on Sunday, which Jefferson noted after the loss, saying, "We're not expecting him to be perfect." McCarthy has struggled, though so have the rest of the Vikings, who allowed a whopping 16 pressures on Sunday and ran for only 78 yards. They'll look for a better showing in Week 3 against Cincinnati.
