Who Should I Start? Brandin Cooks or Terry McLaurin

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Brandin Cooks (knee) was a full participant in practice on Thursday and Friday and was removed from the final Week 3 injury report, meaning he will make his return against the Arizona Cardinals. Cooks suffered an MCL sprain in the season opener and was held out of the Week 2 win over the New York Jets. The Cowboys didn't need to throw the ball in the 40-0 blowout over the New York Giants in Week 1, so Cooks had just two receptions for 22 yards in his Cowboys debut. The same could be true this Sunday against the 0-2 Cardinals, so Cooks isn't exactly an intriguing flex play for fantasy managers this weekend while coming off a knee injury.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin caught all six of his targets for 41 yards in Sunday's loss to the Buffalo Bills. In a dreadful outing for the Commanders, McLaurin acted as Sam Howell's security blanket. While leading Washington wideouts with six targets, he appeared to be the only one with at least some actual success. The final score leaves much to be desired for Washington, but there appears to be a solid connection building between their second-year quarterback and their veteran receiver. Hopefully, McLaurin can build upon this outing in Week 4 against the Philadelphia Eagles.
