Who Should I Start? Allen Lazard or Jalen Coker

New York Jets wide receiver Allen Lazard (coach's decision) has been inactive for the last two weeks, and he's trending toward being a healthy scratch again in Week 12 against the Baltimore Ravens. Lazard went from playing 78 percent of the snaps in Week 8 to being a healthy scratch for the Jets' next game, and he has been inactive ever since, even with the Jets trying to find ways to replace Garrett Wilson (knee). So far, Adonai Mitchell, John Metchie III, Tyler Johnson, Arian Smith, and Isaiah Williams have been the Jets' preferred replacements for Wilson, leaving Lazard as the odd man out. With all five of those receivers healthy, it looks like Lazard is heading for more of the same. Don't expect him to suit up against Baltimore.

Jalen Coker caught all four of his targets for 52 total yards and finished with 11.2 PPR points in Week 11. It was the first time this season that Coker registered double-digit PPR fantasy points. Carolina is facing the San Francisco 49ers in Week 12. They rank 28th in Fantasy Points Per Game Allowed to WRs this year. Although Coker has a great fantasy matchup, he simply doesn't produce enough to take advantage of the draw. He is behind Tetairoa McMillan and Xavier Legette on the depth chart and has yet to be targeted more than four times in a single game. Coker has not caught a TD pass or reached 55 receiving yards in five games played this year.
