Who Should I Start? Amon-Ra St. Brown or Michael Penix Jr.

Monday, November 3, 12:59 PM

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown continues to see heavy involvement in his team's passing game, recording nine catches for 97 yards on 13 targets in a Week 9 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. St. Brown has now earned double-digit targets in three consecutive contests. Across eight games played in 2025, the 26-year-old has hauled in 59 catches for 635 yards and seven touchdowns on 74 targets. Even in a Lions offense that has other talented pass-catchers, St. Brown has seen 30 more targets than Detroit's second-highest target earner, tight end Sam LaPorta. As long as he stays healthy, St. Brown remains a must-start fantasy wide receiver heading into Detroit's Week 10 matchup against the Washington Commanders.

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Penix Jr. completed 22 of his 37 pass attempts for 221 yards, three touchdowns, and zero interceptions during Sunday's Week 9 loss against the New England Patriots. He also added two rushing attempts for 19 rushing yards. Penix returned from a one-game absence and delivered his best fantasy performance of the season, finishing with three passing touchdowns for the first time in his young career. All three of those touchdown passes went to Drake London, who also accounted for more than half of Penix's passing yards. Penix fared well enough against a strong Patriots defense that we expect him to remain a solid QB1 option against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 10.
