Who Should I Start? A.J. Brown or Jordan Addison

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown caught nine of 13 targets for 175 yards and two touchdowns during the team's 34-31 overtime win over the Washington Commanders. The 26-year-old led the receiver corps in targets by a wide margin for the second week in a row and had an even bigger performance while catching his first two touchdowns of the season. Fantasy managers' fears that Brown was taking a back seat to teammate DeVonta Smith have been quelled. The fifth-year receiver will travel to Los Angeles next week to take on a better than previously thought Rams defense, which ranks toward the top of the league against fantasy wide receivers. With that said, Brown will be a must-start in that matchup.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison will look to keep his strong start to his rookie season going as the Vikings take on the Chargers in Week 3. Addison has found the end zone in each of his first two games this season, and he now draws a matchup with the Chargers' secondary that has looked abysmal, allowing a league-high 9.6 yards per attempt. Addison could do some damage on limited volume in this one, as he has caught just seven passes through two games, however, the USC product has turned it into 133 yards and two touchdowns. Addison will have to compete for targets with Justin Jefferson and T.J. Hockenson, but quarterback Kirk Cousins has attempted 44 in both games this season. He is by no means a must-start, but fantasy managers can treat him as a FLEX option this week.
