Who Should I Start? Amon-Ra St. Brown or George Pickens

Tuesday, December 2, 3:55 PM

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle), who suffered a low-grade ankle sprain in the Thanksgiving Day loss to the Green Bay Packers last Thursday, is up in the air for the Week 14 game this Thursday night against the Dallas Cowboys. "I'm not sure right now, if I'm being honest. It's still up in the air. I'ma try to be out there for the guys, for my teammates, but I couldn't answer that question right now," St. Brown said when asked about his chances of playing against Dallas. The 26-year-old has yet to practice this week, leaving St. Brown on the wrong side of questionable for Week 14. Head coach Dan Campbell said that St. Brown will play if he's able to, but he'll likely have to practice on Wednesday to avoid being ruled out entirely. If St. Brown cannot go on Thursday, Jameson Williams could be in line for another massive target share, with rookie Isaac TeSlaa also in play as a touchdown-dependent flex in fantasy.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens (calf, knee) was listed as limited on the team's practice report on Monday with calf and knee injuries, according to Todd Archer of ESPN. It's the second straight week that Pickens has been on Dallas' injury report with multiple injuries. The 24-year-old was working through calf and knee ailments last week, too, but he was ultimately cleared for the Thanksgiving Day win over the Kansas City Chiefs and caught six of a season-high 13 targets for 88 receiving yards. He took a back seat to teammate CeeDee Lamb in that one, but he could easily bounce back for better production this Thursday night against a Lions defense that hasn't stopped much of anything in recent weeks. Fantasy managers should have Pickens locked into starting lineups in Week 14 for what should be a high-scoring affair.
