Who Should I Start? Adam Thielen or Jakobi Meyers

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Adam Thielen earned just one target in Week 14 but could be in line for additional opportunities against the Miami Dolphins in Week 15. Thielen surprisingly logged the second-most snaps of any Steelers receiver in his debut with the team last week, trailing only DK Metcalf. With Calvin Austin III (calf) popping up on the injury report late in the week, Thielen could emerge as the unquestioned WR2 in Pittsburgh on Monday night. Still, this isn't a particularly easy matchup, as the Dolphins are surrendering the ninth-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing wideouts this season. He can't be trusted to provide consistent fantasy value down the stretch, but Thielen's role and developing chemistry with quarterback Aaron Rodgers are worth monitoring in deeper leagues.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers has excelled since being acquired from the Las Vegas Raiders at this year's trade deadline. Meyers has scored in three straight games and has totaled 22 receptions for 284 yards on 31 targets in five games with the team. The Jaguars are 4-1 since trading for him, with the 29-year-old wideout emerging as Trevor Lawrence's favorite target. Brian Thomas Jr.'s return in Week 13 hasn't slowed Meyers down, as he's compiled 16 targets in the past two weeks. Meyers should remain productive on Sunday against a New York Jets defense that has struggled all season. Fantasy managers can confidently fire him up as a solid WR2 option in Week 15.
