Who Should I Start? Brandon Aiyuk or Dyami Brown

Monday, November 3, 7:30 PM

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said on Monday that the team will not open wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk's (knee) 21-day practice window this week, according to Matt Barrows of The Athletic. Shanahan mentioned recently that Aiyuk was getting closer to returning to practice, but apparently it won't be this week. The 27-year-old has been on the Physically Unable to Perform list all year after tearing his ACL and MCL on Oct. 20 last year. San Fran is still holding out hope that the former first-rounder will be able to help them this year, but fantasy managers stashing Aiyuk shouldn't be as confident that he'll be able to help out in 2025. In addition to Aiyuk, the Niners have been without Ricky Pearsall (knee) since Week 4 due to a sprained PCL. Jauan Jennings, Kendrick Bourne, and Demarcus Robinson have been the team's starting receivers in three-wide sets in recent weeks.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dyami Brown suffered a concussion during the fourth quarter of Sunday's Week 9 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders. He was ultimately ruled out for the remainder of the game, in accordance with the NFL's concussion protocol and policy. Brown finished the game with seven targets, three catches, and 25 receiving yards. The 26-year-old will now have seven days to clear concussion protocol before Sunday's game against the Houston Texans. If he is unable to do so, Tim Jones would likely earn more snaps behind Parker Washington and Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle).
