Who Should I Start? Baker Mayfield or Jerry Jeudy

Friday, November 21, 5:18 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield is cleared to play this weekend after dealing with an illness throughout the week. Mayfield will have a tough challenge ahead of him against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 12. Last week, Mayfield completed 16-of-28 passing attempts for 173 yards with one touchdown and one interception in the loss to the Buffalo Bills. Mayfield has been held to under 200 passing yards in two of his last three games. It's not all his fault as Mayfield is working with a skeleton crew on offense. The hope is that Chris Godwin (leg) will be able to make it back on the field this weekend. Regardless, Mayfield should be able to offer low-end QB1 value for this weekend in what should be a high-scoring affair.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy had his best game of the season in the Week 11 loss to the New York Jets, catching six of his 12 targets for 78 yards and his first touchdown of the season. Fantasy managers who had picked Jeudy up off the waiver wire were hoping he'd continue that momentum into Week 12 versus the Baltimore Ravens, but it didn't happen. The 26-year-old caught three of seven targets for just 21 yards in the loss. The good news is that he led the team with seven targets, but the bad news is that rookie quarterback Dillon Gabriel left the game with a concussion and did not return. Gabriel will not play this Sunday against the Las Vegas Raiders, leaving fellow rookie Shedeur Sanders to make his first NFL start. Sanders completed just 25% of his passes in relief of Gabriel last Sunday and is a serious dice roll this weekend. It will be very difficult to trust Jeudy in a starting lineup spot in fantasy in Week 12.
