Who Should I Start? Ashton Dulin or Deven Thompkins

Sunday, October 5, 12:37 AM

ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports that Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Ashton Dulin could be in store for increased snaps this Sunday when his team squares off with the Las Vegas Raiders at home. Dulin is poised to be the beneficiary of an expanded workload this weekend, with teammate Alec Pierce (concussion) set to miss another game, and Adonai Mitchell falling out of favor with the coaching staff. Mitchell made two egregious errors in Week 4 that each resulted in a touchdown being taken off the board. Fowler notes that while Mitchell will be active in Week 5, he's expected to see limited involvement. Mitchell actually out-snapped fellow WR Josh Downs last weekend, but it remains to be seen if Dulin would be used in a similar role. With that in mind, he'll be better off avoided for fantasy.

The Carolina Panthers have agreed to terms on a deal with wide receiver Devin Thompkins. The 24-year-old spent the first two seasons of his career with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He was waived by the team in late May after finishing with 22 receptions in 22 games with the team. Thompkins was often times used as the No. 4 or even 5th option on the depth chart. He didn't get a ton of chances, so maybe he'll see an increased workload in Carolina. He'll rejoin coach Dave Canales who was with the Bucs last season. Maybe Canales can unlock something we haven't seen from Thompkins.
