Who Should I Start? Chris Godwin Jr. or Jauan Jennings

Thursday, December 4, 6:06 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin Jr. (leg) is getting healthier following a fractured fibula that he suffered back in Week 5. Godwin returned from his fibula injury in the Week 12 loss to the Los Angeles Rams to catch two of his four targets for just nine yards. The 29-year-old saw the field more in last week's win over the Arizona Cardinals and caught three of five targets for a season-high 78 yards. He was still limited with his leg injury in Wednesday's practice, but he upgraded to a full practice on Thursday and should continue to see his role grow as he heads into the Week 14 divisional game against the New Orleans Saints. Godwin has WR3/flex appeal for fantasy managers in his third game back, although his target share could be negatively affected if Mike Evans (collarbone) comes off IR to play for the first time since breaking his collarbone in Week 7.

Across 11 games this season, San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings has recorded 41 catches for 458 yards and five touchdowns. As the 49ers hit their bye in Week 14, the 28-year-old is playing some of his best football. Across his last five games, Jennings has recorded 23 catches for 246 yards and four touchdowns on 33 targets. While San Francisco has other talented weapons on their offense, Jennings continues to play a highly consistent role in the team's passing game. He's seen at least six targets in six out of his last seven games played. Additionally, it appears 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk (knee) may not take the field at all in 2025 after San Francisco voided guarantees in his contract while he works his way back from a knee injury. Jennings looks like the WR1 in San Francisco and should remain a solid starting option for fantasy managers down the stretch of the season.
