Who Should I Start? Bub Means or Savion Williams

Wednesday, August 13, 6:12 PM

The New Orleans Saints placed wide receiver Bub Means (leg) on season-ending Injured Reserve on Wednesday, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Means suffered a serious lower-leg injury in the preseason opener against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday and will now miss the entire 2025 season. Before his injury on Sunday, he caught one pass for a gain of 12 yards. It's definitely a blow to the Saints receiving corps after the 24-year-old fifth-rounder last year caught nine of his 15 targets for 118 yards and one touchdown in seven games (one start) in his rookie season. Means also missed the final nine games of his first year in the league with an ankle injury, so he has quickly developed an injury-prone label. Means will now rehab his leg in hopes of being ready for the start of the 2026 season.

Green Bay Packers rookie wide receiver Savion Williams has mostly been used in a gadget role on offense this season. Williams has just one catch for one yard and four rush attempts for 23 yards through the first three games of his NFL career. Even after an injury to Packers wideout Jayden Reed (collarbone, foot), Williams remains buried on the team's wide receiver depth chart behind Romeo Doubs, Dontayvion Wicks, and Matthew Golden. Williams could see even less playing time once veteran wide receiver Christian Watson (knee) makes his return to the field. The 23-year-old rookie should be off the radar of redraft fantasy managers until there are signs of a significant change in role.
