Who Should I Start? Allen Lazard or Tre' Harris

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.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Tre' Harris has seen his playing time steadily rise as the season has gone along. Harris hit a season high in snap (82.8%) and route share back (84.6%) in Week 6 with Quentin Johnston out, catching four of five targets for 27 yards. His route share has been between 22.5% and 35.9% every week since then, but he spiked back up to 50% in Week 11, his second-highest rate of the year. He caught his only target for 12 yards, and it was likely a result of the Chargers taking a beating in a blowout 35-6 loss to the Jaguars, but it was positive news for the rookie regardless. The rookie second-rounder is buried in a deep Chargers wide receiver room, and it will be tough for him to make a big impact this season without an injury.
