Who Should I Start? Andrei Iosivas or Jalen McMillan

Saturday, December 13, 1:09 PM

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Andrei Iosivas has only two touchdowns this season after finding the end zone six times in 2024. With Tee Higgins (concussion) sidelined heading into the Week 15 game versus Baltimore, Iosivas has gained more attention from fantasy managers in need of a streaming option. Higgins wasn't available in Week 13 against the Ravens, although Iosivas didn't benefit, catching only one pass for 29 yards. Cincinnati and Baltimore will do it again on Sunday. However, despite Higgins' absence, Joe Burrow still has plenty of options at his disposal, meaning Iosivas isn't a lock to see an uptick in targets. While the 26-year-old has a higher upside than normal, he still isn't a safe option. Fantasy managers should proceed with caution.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Jalen McMillan (neck) will make his 2025 season debut in Week 15 on Thursday Night Football versus the division-rival Atlanta Falcons. McMillan was activated from Injured Reserve on Wednesday, but was listed as questionable to play this week. The 24-year-old second-year wideout suffered multiple fractures and ligament damage in his neck in a preseason game in August, but he's finally ready to contribute down the stretch for Tampa. With veteran Mike Evans (collarbone) also back for the first time since breaking his collarbone in Week 7, the Bucs' receiving corps is finally back to full strength for the first time this year. McMillan had a pretty big role in the offense to close out his rookie campaign with Chris Godwin Jr. on the shelf, and he finished with a 37-461-8 line in 13 games. However, in a crowded WR room this year and with limited snaps likely coming in his first game back, McMillan won't be a recommended fantasy play against Atlanta.
