Who Should I Start? Britain Covey or Isaiah Williams

Sunday, August 24, 1:38 PM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Britain Covey caught four of six targets for 32 yards during Saturday's preseason finale against the Cleveland Browns. The 28-year-old ultimately contributed in all three preseason games, but Week 3 was his best outing. He finishes this summer with nine catches, 76 yards, zero touchdowns, and a pair of punt returns. He's certainly on the roster bubble as Week 1 approaches, as the Rams already have wide receiver depth and would plug in Xavier Smith as their primary punt returner if he makes the team. If Covey is cut loose, he'd likely generate interest for a practice squad or roster spot elsewhere.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Isaiah Williams caught all four of his targets for a total of 35 yards during Thursday's preseason loss against the New York Giants. Undrafted out of Illinois, Williams is now firmly in the mix for a depth role after a solid showing in Week 1 of the preseason. He showcased considerable quickness and change of direction skills in the loss, even earning a shoutout from head coach Dan Campbell following the game. Williams has less than one month (and two more games) to show the coaching staff why he's worthy of a coveted 53-man roster spot.
