Who Should I Start? Cedric Tillman or Matthew Golden

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.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Matthew Golden (wrist) put in a full practice on Friday after two limited sessions on Wednesday and Thursday, and Golden will be good to go when the Packers head to Denver to face the Broncos. Returning to game action in Week 14, Golden earned just a single target from quarterback Jordan Love on four pass routes. Head coach Matt LaFleur stated Golden would be limited to "pass situations only" when talking about Golden's role in Week 14, so clearly, that limited his fantasy points potential. With all of the pass-catching options for the Packers healthier heading into Week 15, Golden may have trouble getting on the field with players like Christian Watson, Jayden Reed, Romeo Doubs, and others ahead of him. Golden is a very risky bet for fantasy success in Week 15 against a stout Denver defense.
