Who Should I Start? Ashton Dulin or Dominic Lovett

Saturday, October 18, 7:15 PM

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Ashton Dulin (chest) won't play in Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Chargers. He didn't practice all week, so the latest update shouldn't be surprising to anyone. The 28-year-old hasn't done much this season, totaling three grabs for 66 yards while amassing 15 yards off two carries. With Josh Downs (concussion) also ruled out, there would have been room for Dulin to see extra attention from Daniel Jones. However, the collective absences of Downs and Dulin could now mean more targets for Alec Pierce behind Michael Pittman Jr. And Tyler Warren.

Detroit Lions rookie wide receiver Dominic Lovett was targeted nine times during his team's 34-7 preseason loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, hauling in five catches for 31 yards. The 22-year-old also featured prominently on special teams, returning a kick for 22 yards and a punt for 19. A seventh-round pick out of Georgia, Lovett recorded 59 catches for 607 yards and six touchdowns in 14 games with the Bulldogs last season. He figures to be competing with veteran Kalif Raymond for Detroit's WR4/return specialist role. Raymond has been a steady contributor across four seasons in Detroit heading into 2025, but he's entering his age-31 season, and his 17 catches in 2024 were his fewest since 2020. Lovett would need multiple injuries in the Lions' receiver room to be fantasy relevant in 2025, but a strong preseason could assure him of a roster spot.
