Who Should I Start? Cedric Tillman or Emeka Egbuka

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Cedric Tillman (concussion, ribs) is officially listed as questionable for his team's Week 15 matchup against the Chicago Bears. Tillman missed practice on both Wednesday and Thursday of this week. The 25-year-old has battled through an injury-filled 2025 season to this point, recording 18 receptions for 197 yards and two touchdowns on 35 targets across nine games played. If Tillman is unable to play in Week 15, Browns wideouts Jerry Jeudy, Isaiah Bond, and Gage Larvadain could all be in line for an uptick in targets and playing time. Cleveland has definitively ruled out tight end David Njoku (knee) and top pass-catching running back Dylan Sampson (calf, hand), so the team's target distribution against Chicago could be quite condensed.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie first-round wide receiver Emeka Egbuka has struggled to produce any consistent numbers over the last month of the season. Egbuka has finished with 42 receiving yards or fewer in four straight games. His target share has been there, with eight targets or more in seven consecutive contests. Unfortunately, Egbuka and quarterback Baker Mayfield aren't on the same page right now. Egbuka's fantasy value could drop even more going forward with veteran Mike Evans (collarbone) trending in the right direction to return in Week 15. Egbuka figures to lose targets to Evans and Chris Godwin Jr. to close out what has been a strong first NFL season. The rookie wideout has enough big-play potential to warrant a look for the Thursday night matchup versus the Atlanta Falcons, but fantasy managers might want to temper their expectations for him as a WR3/flex.
