Who Should I Start? CeeDee Lamb or Tetairoa McMillan

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.

Tetairoa McMillan wasn't very busy in Week 13, but still made a notable impact in the Panthers' stunning 31-28 victory over the Los Angeles Rams. The rookie WR was targeted just twice, his lowest target count of the season. However, McMillan caught a 43-yard touchdown pass in the fourth quarter that proved to be the game-clinching score. McMillan has now caught TD passes in three consecutive games, and he finished Week 13 with 11.3 PPR points. In Week 15, after a bye, Carolina will face the New Orleans Saints in a Week 10 rematch. In the first meeting against the Saints, McMillan finished with 60 yards on five receptions. New Orleans ranked 20th in Fantasy Points Per Game allowed to WRs in the four weeks leading up to Week 13. Although he did not see much volume in Week 13, McMillan has a favorable matchup in Week 15, where he is likely to see more targets. Due to his solid fantasy floor this season, McMillan is worth considering as a WR3 or flex start.
