Who Should I Start? Chase Claypool or Garrett Wilson

Saturday, July 5, 10:37 PM

Free-agent wide receiver Chase Claypool (toe) is hoping to sign with an NFL team. The 2020 No. 49 overall pick was spectacular as a rookie, amassing 62 catches for 873 yards and 11 touchdowns. Since then, he hasn't been as productive. finding the end zone only six times. After stops in Pittsburgh, Chicago, and Miami, Claypool was in line to suit up for the Buffalo Bills heading into the 2024 campaign. Unfortunately, he tore a ligament and tendon in his toe before eventually being released by the team. With the injury behind Claypool, he is eager to get back on the field while claiming to be stronger and faster than ever. "I am back to being the strongest and fastest I've ever been and couldn't be more excited to step back out on the field and let my actions speak for themselves," said the 26-year-old. "I deeply and truly believe that the pieces will align, and I will work my way into the position to show off what's been suppressed these last two years." It appears he is more motivated than ever. Although Claypool should see attention from fantasy managers if he signs with a club, he could have a tough time getting close to the level of production he had in his inaugural year. Still, the wideout is worth monitoring in case he ends up inking a deal with a team where he'll have the opportunity to get involved.

New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson (knee) has informed the media that he feels great and that he is good to go for Sunday's matchup with the Cleveland Browns. Wilson has posted 36 receptions for 395 yards and four touchdowns through six games this season, despite the team ranking last in passing yards with just 156.5 per game. The Jets' lackluster passing attack, combined with the Browns' fourth-ranked pass defense, paints a concerning picture for Wilson this week, but he should be viewed as a flex play, garnering a large target share in the offense.
