Who Should I Start? Amon-Ra St. Brown or Jordan Whittington

Sunday, November 23, 6:12 PM

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown bounced back with a fantastic performance against the New York Giants in Week 12. Last week, St. Brown was held to two receptions, but he wouldn't be stopped this weekend. The superstar wideout hauled in nine of his 13 targets for a season-high 149 receiving yards and a touchdown in the win. His lone score came as an 11-yard grab in the second quarter. St. Brown will take his 75 receptions for 885 yards with nine touchdowns into a Thanksgiving matchup against the Green Bay Packers in Week 13. He'll be an obvious WR1 for that game and going forward for the rest of the season.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Jordan Whittington has maintained a sizable snap share within his offense, but he continues to be a low-volume option. He has played at least 40% of the snaps in every game he has been healthy for this season, but he hasn't surpassed 6.2 fantasy points (PPR) in a single contest so far. In fact, over his last two full games, he has just one target, one catch, and nine receiving yards. The Texas product has also started to see more special teams opportunities, returning a pair of kicks in Week 11. Now, even in a relatively favorable matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 12, Whittington is not a reliable fantasy option. He ranks as the overall WR89 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy rankings. As long as Puka Nacua and Davante Adams are healthy, Whittington can be left on waivers.
