Who Should I Start? Anthony Miller or Olamide Zaccheaus

The Athletic's Jeff Zrebiec reports that per the Baltimore Ravens' personnel notice on Wednesday, the team re-signed wide receiver Anthony Miller to a Reserve/Futures deal. Miller spent the vast majority of the 2024 campaign in Baltimore on their practice squad and wasn't elevated to the active 53-man roster until Week 16. The 30-year-old former second-round selection by the Chicago Bears in the 2018 NFL draft out of Memphis only ended up playing in two regular-season games for the Ravens and caught his only target for a gain of 16 yards. He was also active for both of the team's playoff games with Zay Flowers (knee) out and caught all four of his targets for 28 yards against the Steelers and Bills. Miller will stick around in Baltimore this offseason and heading into training camp this summer as valuable depth behind Flowers, Rashod Bateman and Nelson Agholor.

Chicago Bears wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus made an immediate impact in his debut under head coach Ben Johnson. He caught four of seven targets for 42 yards in the Week 1 loss to Minnesota, operating as Chicago's clear WR3. Zaccheaus played 44% of the snaps and ran a route on 59% of dropbacks, both behind only Rome Odunze and D.J. Moore. Notably, he was on the field for 87% of the snaps in one-tight end sets, cementing his defined role in the offense. Week 2 brings an appealing matchup with the Lions, who allowed the most receiving yards to wideouts in 2024. Former Bear receiver Keenan Allen shredded Detroit twice last season, averaging 23.2 half-PPR points per game against them. While Zaccheaus has a chance to stay involved, his role still caps his upside. He's a deep-league flex consideration but should remain out of lineups in most fantasy formats.
