Who Should I Start? Allen Robinson or Trent Sherfield

Detroit Lions wide receiver Allen Robinson II brought in his lone target for 21 yards during their victory over the San Francisco 49ers on Monday evening. Robinson's lone reception came in the third quarter. While the vast majority of the passing opportunities went to Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams, Sam LaPorta, and Jahmyr Gibbs, it is a positive sign for Robinson to see more targets than the presumed No.3 option, Tim Patrick. Robinson has now seen at least one target in two of his past three contests. However, given how often Jared Goff looks to his top pass-catching options, Robinson may only see a handful of targets in each game moving forward. As a result, fantasy managers should not view Robinson as a viable play in Week 18 and in any postseason competitions.

Free-agent wide receiver Trent Sherfield Sr. is signing with the Denver Broncos on Tuesday on a two-year, $8 million deal, sources tell FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz. Sherfield will join the Broncos in 2025 after playing in 17 regular-season games (one start) with the Minnesota Vikings last year and catching only eight of his nine targets for 83 yards and one touchdown. The 29-year-old pass-catcher has been with five different teams (Cardinals, 49ers, Dolphins, Bills and Vikings) in the last five seasons, with his best year coming in 2022 with Miami, when he posted a 30-417-2 line in 17 games (four starts). The Vanderbilt product spent the first three years of his NFL career in Arizona before bouncing around on a year-to-year basis. Sherfield is unlikely to make much noise with the Broncos next season while competing for a secondary role with the likes of Marvin Mims Jr., Devaughn Vele and Troy Franklin.
