Who Should I Start? A.J. Brown or Puka Nacua

Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio reports that the Philadelphia Eagles are "shopping" wide receiver A.J. Brown, without officially putting him on the market. Brown has been the subject of trade rumors since early October, though every report to this point has insisted he is not being shopped and will remain in Philadelphia. After missing last week's game with a hamstring injury, Brown broke out in Week 7 with 121 yards and two touchdowns. The Eagles are on their bye this week, and it will be worth monitoring how the situation develops. Still, it seems unlikely that a team in the Eagles' position would move one of its top offensive weapons.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua (rib) is scheduled to have a scan for the rib injury that he suffered in Sunday's blowout win over the New Orleans Saints, according to head coach Sean McVay. The Rams said on Sunday that Nacua could have come back into the game, but they were being overly cautious with the game already in hand. McVay said he feels "optimistic... in regard to where we're potentially heading." It sounds as though the Rams are expecting the 24-year-old to be ready for a big divisional game in Week 10 against the San Francisco 49ers, but we won't know for sure until later this week. Although Nacua was injured in Week 9, he still managed to produce for his fantasy managers before departing, catching seven of his eight targets for 95 yards and a touchdown in the 34-10 victory. If Nacua is active in Week 10, he'll be a must-start against San Fran's banged-up defense.
