Who Should I Start? Amon-Ra St. Brown or Tutu Atwell

Sunday, September 14, 6:12 PM

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown put together an unbelievable performance against the Chicago Bears on Sunday. St. Brown was fairly quiet in the season opener with four receptions for 45 yards in the Week 1 loss. He completely exploded in Week 2 giving fantasy managers an epic afternoon. St. Brown hauled in nine of his 11 targets for 115 yards and three touchdowns in the win. The Bears secondary had absolutely no answers for St. Brown all afternoon long. The superstar wideout recorded his first career three-touchdown game. The Lions offense erupted for 52 points, but we'll see if they can keep it going next week against the Baltimore Ravens. St. Brown should be viewed as a mid-range WR1 for that one.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Tutu Atwell was unable to haul in his lone target during Sunday's Week 2 win over the Tennessee Titans. Atwell was projected to be the Rams' No. 3 receiver this season, and in a pass-heavy offense, that role sometimes leads to fantasy value. However, with two games in the books, it has become clear that Atwell is a non-factor. He has just one catch for four yards so far. Fantasy managers holding out hope will point out that the 25-year-old receiver has maintained a 42 percent snap share, but volume is volume, and Atwell hasn't been able to put together much of a rapport with Matthew Stafford so far. Early in the season, he remains behind players like Davante Adams, Puka Nacua, Jordan Whittington, and Tyler Higbee in the pass-catching pecking order.
