Who Should I Start? Andrei Iosivas or Jordan Whittington

Tuesday, October 28, 6:29 PM

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Andrei Iosivas has plenty of talent, but he's constantly overshadowed by Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins in Cincinnati. Iosivas has yet to score in eight games in 2025 and was unable to haul in any of his three targets in the Week 8 upset loss to the New York Jets on Sunday. It was the third time that the 26-year-old has been held without a catch in eight games, and he has gone over 50 yards receiving just once, when he caught five of a season-high seven targets for 82 yards in the Oct. 5 loss to the Detroit Lions. The good news is that Iosivas played 80% of the team's offensive snaps in the loss to New York. It hasn't helped Iosivas that quarterback Joe Burrow (toe) is on Injured Reserve. Veteran Joe Flacco has been solid under center for the team in his three starts, but the vast majority of his looks are going to either Chase or Higgins. Iosivas cannot be started in fantasy lineups for a Week 9 tilt against the Chicago Bears.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Jordan Whittington will move up the depth chart for Sunday's Week 7 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Rams will be without top wideout Puka Nacua (ankle) for this game. That means, Whittington could move into the No. 2 role behind Davante Adams for this game. The 25-year-old has been quiet, but saw a season-high four targets and played 92 percent of the offensive snaps during last week's game. The expectation is that Whittington will be more involved with Nacua unable to play. There should be flex value here against a shaky Jaguars secondary this weekend.
