Who Should I Start? Ashton Dulin or Lil'jordan Humphrey

Friday, August 9, 10:12 PM

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Ashton Dulin (hamstring) missed his second straight day of practice on Friday. With his and Josh Downs' (ankle) recent injuries, other wideouts on the Colts roster have been able to run with the first team. The severity of Dulin's injury is unclear, but this puts him in jeopardy of missing Indianapolis' preseason opener on Sunday. The fifth-year wideout had previously been a full-go at training camp on the heels of missing the entirety of the 2023 season with a torn ACL he suffered in August last season. The Colts have a relatively deep WR corps, and Dulin is listed fifth on the team's unofficial depth chart behind Michael Pittman Jr., Downs, rookie Adonai Mitchell, and Alec Pierce. For now, he can be safely left by the wayside until he returns to health and begins rapidly ascending the depth chart.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Lil'Jordan Humphrey had his best game of 2024 in the Week 11 blowout win over the Atlanta Falcons, catching all four of his targets for a season-high 52 yards and his first touchdown of the year. Humphrey will be looking for a second straight strong game this Sunday against the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders and their beat-up secondary. The 26-year-old played only 44% of the offensive snaps last week, though, and faces plenty of competition for targets alongside Courtland Sutton, Marvin Mims Jr. and rookies Devaughn Vele and Troy Franklin. Rookie QB Bo Nix has been spreading the ball around all year to wideouts not named Sutton, too, making it mostly a crapshoot for which receiver might have the best game behind Sutton. Fantasy managers playing him as a WR5/flex in deep leagues are merely hoping for a couple big plays and potentially another TD.
