Who Should I Start? CeeDee Lamb or Puka Nacua

Friday, December 5, 8:18 PM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (concussion) "had a good day" on Friday after suffering a concussion in the Thursday night loss to the Detroit Lions, according to head coach Brian Schottenheimer. The head coach said the extra days going into the Week 15 game against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, Dec. 14, should help get him back. The 26-year-old hit his head hard on the turf while trying to make a catch in the third quarter and was quickly ruled out. The good news for fantasy managers is that he caught six of eight targets for a season-high 121 yards before getting hurt. There's no guarantee that Lamb will clear the league's concussion protocol in time to play next Sunday, but it definitely helps that he'll have extra time before that contest. With Lamb's status up in the air for next week, Ryan Flournoy, who had nine catches (13 targets) for 115 yards and a TD on Thursday, will be a top waiver-wire target in fantasy leagues.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua caught seven of his 11 targets for 167 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday's Week 14 win over the Arizona Cardinals. Nacua looked terrific in this divisional battle, scoring touchdowns of 28 and 31 yards. This was his first multi-touchdown game of the year, and he finished just three yards shy of his season-high in receiving yards. The 24-year-old is a top-three fantasy receiver in 2025 despite dealing with an injury near the middle of the season. He's known for being a high-yardage, high-volume receiver, but he's a major touchdown threat, so Sunday's explosive game was a welcome surprise. He should continue to be deployed as a high-end WR1 in all leagues ahead of Week 15 against the Detroit Lions, which will be a revenge game opportunity for Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford.
