Who Should I Start? Ainias Smith or Trey Palmer

Sunday, January 26, 1:51 PM

According to the team, Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver Ainias Smith is inactive for Sunday's NFC title game against the Washington Commanders. The rookie wideout will be a healthy scratch. The Texas A&M product was also inactive during the first two games of the playoffs. Throughout the regular season, Smith saw a limited role as he caught just three passes through the first 17 weeks. However, in Week 18, Smith caught all four of his targets for 35 yards and a score. Fantasy managers should expect A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, and Jahan Dotson to operate as the top wideouts in the Philadelphia offense in this contest.

Tampa Bay wide receiver Trey Palmer (hamstring) is dealing with a hamstring injury that is holding him out of training camp. Going into his third year in the NFL, Palmer has typically been a depth chart filler on the Bucs, and they just added rookie Emeka Egbuka in the 2025 draft after Jalen McMillan already leaped past him on the depth chart in the 2024 season. Still on his rookie deal, Palmer is signed through the 2026 season and will need all of the reps he can get to compete with the newcomers on the depth chart for future upside. With the massive depth chart in Tampa Bay, Palmer will likely remain off the fantasy radar for now.
