Who Should I Start? Cedric Tillman or Caleb Williams

Monday, September 15, 8:11 PM

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Cedric Tillman continued to show a nose for the end zone in his team's lopsided Week 2 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. Tillman was mostly quiet, but he salvaged his afternoon with a fluky 18-yard touchdown grab to finish with a two-catch, 22-yard line in the loss. The veteran wideout has now scored in each of his two games to open the season, as he has carved out fantasy value as a flex/WR4 type in leagues. Tillman will hope to keep it going in a tough Week 3 home matchup against the Green Bay Packers, but fantasy managers might want to temper expectations due to the difficult matchup.

Chicago Bears head coach Ben Johnson said the team is working with quarterback Caleb Williams on being more consistent with his footwork to improve his accuracy as a thrower. Per ESPN's Courtney Cronin, Johnson said that there were "probably three or four" throws from Williams' Week 1 performance against the Minnesota Vikings that "we would want back." Williams completed 60% of his 35 pass attempts against Minnesota for 210 yards and a touchdown. He gets a decent matchup in Week 2 against a Detroit Lions defense that may be without All-Pro safety Kerby Joseph (knee). Still, Williams is tough for fantasy managers to trust until he proves he can be more consistent. Williams profiles as a fantasy QB2 in Week 2 who can be started in Superflex leagues but should be avoided in single-QB formats.
