Who Should I Start? Breshad Perriman or D.J. Chark

The Indianapolis Colts released veteran wide receiver Breshad Perriman on Monday, according to a source. Perriman was trying to find a new home in Indianapolis this year after catching 20 of his 37 targets for 277 yards and two touchdowns in 17 games (three starts) the last two years with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 29-year-old former first-rounder of the Baltimore Ravens in 2015 will now look to latch on with another team before the start of the 2023 regular season. In his seven NFL seasons with the Ravens, Browns, Buccaneers and Jets, Perriman has caught 145 passes for 2,343 yards and 16 touchdowns in 80 games (25 starts).

Former Carolina Panthers wide receiver DJ Chark Jr., one of the top free-agent receivers available with less than a week until the NFL draft, spent Thursday on a visit with the Los Angeles Chargers, according to a source. The Chargers may draft a receiver as early as the fifth overall pick next Thursday night, but they still need starters and Chark could be an option to help build depth at the position now that Keenan Allen and Mike Williams are both gone. The 27-year-old Chark had a 1,000-yard season with the Jaguars in 20219 and scored eight touchdowns, but injuries and inconsistency have limited him in four years since and he hasn't been reliable for fantasy managers. Chark might be intriguing as a late-round dart throw in fantasy drafts if he were to land in LA, but it would also depend on what the Chargers do at the position in the upcoming draft.
