Who Should I Start? A.J. Brown or Xavier Worthy

Saturday, November 8, 4:20 PM

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown (hamstring) is off the final injury report ahead of Monday night's primetime matchup against the Green Bay Packers. Brown missed Philadelphia's Week 8 win over the New York Giants due to the hamstring injury, but had the Week 9 bye to rest and practiced in full every day this week. The star wideout posted his best game of the season last time he suited up in Week 7 against the Minnesota Vikings, catching four of his six targets for 121 yards and two touchdowns. That marked Brown's first two-touchdown game since Week 8 of the 2023 season. The 28-year-old has had a disappointing season to date, but could be in for a big second half as Jalen Hurts and the Eagles' passing game have gotten rolling. Brown ranks as RotoBaller's WR9 in PPR leagues for Monday night against the Packers.

Before his team's Week 10 bye, Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy was struggling to be consistently productive. In his final three games before the bye, Worthy recorded 11 catches for 111 yards and zero touchdowns on 18 targets. For the season, the 22-year-old has hauled in just 24 receptions for 256 yards and one touchdown on 40 targets across seven games. Worthy appears to have taken a clear backseat to wide receiver Rashee Rice and tight end Travis Kelce in the Kansas City passing game. Worthy has also seen his red-zone usage decrease in 2025, after scoring nine touchdowns across 17 games as a rookie in 2024. The Chiefs will face a difficult matchup in Week 11 when they travel to Denver to take on the Broncos, so Worthy's struggles may continue coming out of the bye.
