Who Should I Start? Charlie Jones or Ben Skowronek

Sunday, December 15, 11:49 AM

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Charlie Jones (groin) remains out of action for the Week 15 contest on Sunday against the Tennessee Titans. Jones didn't practice on Wednesday or Thursday but was upgraded to a full practice on Friday before being given a questionable tag for Sunday's game. However, the 26-year-old has been ruled out for his sixth straight game this weekend, meaning running back Khalil Herbert and Isaiah Williams should continue to serve as the team's kick and punt returners, respectively. Jones, a fourth-round selection in 2023, has played in only eight games in his second year in the NFL and has caught his only target for a five-yard gain. When healthy, he's primarily an option on special teams for the Bengals as a returner and is off the fantasy radar. He had seven catches for 64 yards and no touchdowns in 11 games as a rookie.

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Ben Skowronek (hip) has returned to action for Saturday's game against the Baltimore Ravens. Skowronek exited in the second quarter due to a hip issue, but was able to get back on the field shortly after halftime. He hauled in both his targets for 25 yards before exiting the contest. He's mainly a special teams player, but is seeing more chances as a wideout with George Pickens (hamstring) still out. However, Skowronek remains behind Calvin Austin III, Van Jefferson, and Mike Williams in the pecking order.
