Who Should I Start? Christian Kirk or Jaylen Waddle

Saturday, November 2, 9:22 PM

According to Adam Schefter, before Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Christian Kirk's (collarbone) injury, the Pittsburgh Steelers had a deal in the works to acquire him. Per Schefter, league sources told ESPN there was a "reasonable chance" that Kirk would be heading to the Steel City. However, that plan was derailed when the 27-year-old suffered a broken clavicle that effectively ended his season. The NFL Insider noted that Pittsburgh is still looking to upgrade their wide receiver corps before the Nov. 5 trade deadline and that they've been "making calls and checking on any and all available wide receivers." With the last call for trades quickly approaching, we'll know if they're successful or not over the next 36 hours. Stay tuned.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (knee) was not seen at the portion of Friday's practice open to the media and is listed as doubtful for the Week 16 contest on Sunday against the visiting San Francisco 49ers at Hard Rock Stadium. Waddle suffered a knee injury early in the Week 15 loss to the Houston Texans and never returned, and now it looks like he'll sit out for at least one game. In addition, Dee Eskridge (knee) is also doubtful, so the Dolphins figure to be short-handed at wideout this weekend. Malik Washington should step into the WR2 role behind All-Pro Tyreek Hill, but for fantasy purposes, he still won't be a recommended option as a flex play in starting lineups with a trip to the fantasy championship on the line. If anything, Hill, tight end Jonnu Smith and running back De'Von Achane will be targeted more through the air.
