Who Should I Start? Brandin Cooks or Dyami Brown

Monday, January 6, 9:26 AM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Brandin Cooks led the team with nine targets in Sunday's 23-19 loss to Washington. Despite the heavy volume, Cooks struggled to produce. He caught just three passes for 15 yards and added a rush for a five-yard loss. The veteran was not on the same page as quarterback Trey Lance, who missed him in the end zone multiple times. The 31-year-old has a voidable contract going into the offseason, so there is a chance that he has played his final game with Dallas.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Dyami Brown caught three of his five targets for 42 yards during their loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship. Brown continued his postseason emergence as he tallied the third-most yards on the team, trailing only Zach Ertz and Terry McLaurin. However, he did lose a fumble. His longest reception of the game went for 24 yards. During the first two rounds of the playoffs, the North Carolina product tallied 93.5 yards per game with a score. This was a stark contrast to his regular season performance, where he tallied just 19.3 yards per game. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor Brown's status during the offseason, as he could have a path to continue this breakout into 2025 if he retains a spot in the starting lineup.
