Who Should I Start? Amari Cooper or Jake Ferguson

Friday, December 20, 4:02 PM

It's safe to call Buffalo Bills Amari Cooper (wrist) a risky fantasy football option in the team's matchup against the New England Patriots. The veteran earned 14 targets in a shootout versus Los Angeles two weeks ago. He followed that up with zero targets against Detroit (another shootout). Rookie Keon Coleman returned to the lineup last week and created a crowded wide receiver room. Cooper's been a part-time player since his arrival in upstate New York, often playing fewer snaps than Khalil Shakir, Coleman, and Mack Hollins. Cooper could also see a lot of star cornerback Christian Gonzalez on Sunday. There are no concerns about his wrist injury, but fantasy managers shouldn't trust Cooper in lineups this weekend.

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson did not make much of an impact in his second game back since missing two games due to a concussion. Ferguson was targeted four times, catching two passes for 23 yards in the Week 15 win over Carolina. The third-year tight end just does not seem to have the same connection with quarterback Cooper Rush that he has with Dak Prescott (hamstring). Ferguson will continue to be a dart throw option moving forward, but still has not found the end zone in the 2024 campaign.
