Who Should I Start? CeeDee Lamb or Ja'Marr Chase

Tuesday, September 2, 10:52 PM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb should be started in all fantasy leagues despite having a tough Week 1 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles. The 26-year-old is coming off a strong year in which he caught 101 passes for 1,194 yards and six touchdowns despite missing two games. Yet, those numbers represented a step down from his final statistics in both 2022 and 2023, so we know that Lamb has the potential to be even better. A big factor toward Lamb's success is the availability of Dak Prescott, who has a clean bill of health to open the 2025 season. With his talented quarterback healthy and the Cowboys expected to be trailing in several shootouts this year, Lamb has tremendous upside. This week's matchup against a well-rounded Eagles defense isn't great, but managers should still confidently deploy him as a mid-range WR1 in fantasy football.

Cincinnati Bengals star wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase hauled in one reception for 11 yards in the 31-17 win against the Washington Commanders. Chase caught a quick pass from quarterback Joe Burrow and drew a 25-yard pass-interference penalty that set up running back Chase Brown for a one-yard touchdown run. The 2024 "Triple Crown Winner" has now caught five passes for 88 yards and a touchdown, as well as scoring a touchdown that got called back due to a holding penalty. Chase enters the 2025 season as the consensus No. 1 overall pick in fantasy drafts, and if this preseason is any indication, he should be in line for another monstrous season.
