Who Should I Start? Christian Kirk or Jerry Jeudy

Houston Texans wide receiver Christian Kirk (hamstring) won't play on Monday night versus the Seattle Seahawks. The wideout was limited during Friday's practice before not suiting up for Saturday's session. It's unknown how severe the injury is. However, it's not good news for a player who's struggled to stay healthy all year. Kirk has appeared in three games for the Texans this season, amassing 10 grabs (16 targets) for 109 yards. Fantasy managers will have to wait and see if he can get healthy enough to suit up against the 49ers in Week 8. In the meantime, Jayden Higgins and Xavier Hutchinson are in line to see more targets behind Nico Collins, giving both players a higher ceiling for Week 7.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy caught two of his four targets for 17 yards in a 31-6 win over the Miami Dolphins in Week 7. Jeudy was quiet on a rainy, windy day in Cleveland, which saw the Browns attempt just 18 passes and throw for only 116 yards. While the weather played into Jeudy's slow performance in Week 7, it doesn't account for his disappointing second season with the Browns. Jeudy has now caught just 22 passes for 257 scoreless yards through seven games. He will look to bounce back in a Week 8 road matchup against a New England Patriots defense that is allowing the 11th-most fantasy points per game to wide receivers in fantasy thus far. Jeudy sets up as a low-end WR4/flex option for Week 8.
