Who Should I Start? Cedric Tillman or Xavier Legette

Sunday, December 14, 11:55 AM

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Cedric Tillman (concussion, ribs) is officially active on Sunday to face the hosting Chicago Bears in Week 15. Tillman managed to clear the league's concussion protocol despite not practicing on Wednesday or Thursday. The 25-year-old is also battling through a rib injury as well and might not be 100% for this weekend's game in the Windy City. Tillman could have a bigger role in Cleveland's passing attack with tight end David Njoku (knee) out, but he's still a pretty hard receiver to trust as a WR4/flex in starting fantasy lineups, even in deeper leagues. In the three games that rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders has started, Tillman has only two catches for 28 yards. Tillman scored in the first two weeks of the season but hasn't found the end zone since, and he only has 18 receptions on the year for 197 yards on 35 targets.

Xavier Legette was once again not very busy in the Panthers' Week 15 loss to the New Orleans Saints. The Carolina WR caught two of his three targets for 39 yards and finished with 5.9 PPR points. Although this is the most PPR points Legette registered since Week 11, he has been mostly irrelevant in fantasy football through the season. In 14 games played, Legette has only two double-digit PPR finishes. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are facing the Carolina Panthers in Week 16. Tampa Bay ranked 18th in Fantasy Points Per Game allowed to the WR position in the last four weeks leading up to Week 15. Even with a middling matchup, Legette's volume has been too inconsistent to warrant a roster spot during the fantasy playoffs.
