Who Should I Start? CeeDee Lamb or Jauan Jennings

Wednesday, October 15, 2:07 PM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (ankle) returned to practice on Wednesday, opening the possibility to suit up for Sunday's divisional clash with the Washington Commanders. Lamb has missed the past three games, opening the door for George Pickens to take on a larger role in the passing game. His potential return comes at the perfect time, as the Commanders rank just 23rd against the pass and have struggled to contain top receivers all season. If active, Lamb immediately resumes his role as a must-start WR1 and should provide a significant boost to Dak Prescott's fantasy outlook as well.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings (ribs, ankle) told ESPN's Nick Wagoner that he is currently playing through five broken ribs, as well as high-ankle and low-ankle sprains. Jennings missed Week 5 due to injury but was able to get on the field in Week 6, albeit with limited results. He saw just three targets in the Niners' loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday, catching one pass for seven yards. 49ers fans and fantasy managers will appreciate Jennings' ability to play through injury, but if he can't produce much, it's fair to question whether he would be better off focusing on his recovery and returning to the field when he's back to 100 percent. It will be important to monitor his practice status when the 49ers publish their injury reports from Wednesday through Friday. San Francisco returns to action next Sunday night against the Atlanta Falcons. A healthy Jennings is a low-end WR2 or high-end WR3/flex. However, his ranking would drop a little if he's less than 100 percent.
