Who Should I Start? CeeDee Lamb or Brian Thomas Jr.

Friday, September 26, 6:35 PM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (ankle) has been ruled out for the upcoming Week 4 matchup against the Green Bay Packers. As expected, Lamb won't suit up this weekend after suffering a high-ankle sprain during last week's loss to the Chicago Bears. Lamb is expected to miss multiple weeks due to this injury, but the team waited until Friday to officially rule him out. His absence should mean increased roles for George Pickens, Jalen Tolbert, and KaVontae Turpin. Also, tight end Jake Ferguson should also see a boost in value with Lamb sidelined.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (wrist) doesn't carry an injury designation ahead of the Week 4 matchup with the 49ers. Thomas has been battling a wrist injury. Fortunately, he logged full practices throughout the week. Thomas had a stellar rookie year, amassing 87 catches (133 targets) for 1,282 yards and 10 touchdowns. However, he struggled in the Jags' first three games of the 2025 campaign, catching only seven passes for 115 yards. With that in mind, Thomas has been targeted 25 times this season, so it's obvious he remains a go-to option for quarterback Trevor Lawrence. While the 22-year-old still can't be trusted fully from a fantasy standpoint, there's really not a scenario where managers can feel comfortable keeping him out of the starting lineup, especially considering his upside. It's also worth noting that Dyami Brown (shoulder) may not play.
