Who Should I Start? Christian Kirk or Romeo Doubs

Saturday, November 1, 5:27 AM

Houston Texans wide receiver Christian Kirk is set to return in Week 9 from a two-game absence due to a hamstring injury, but he steps into a brutal matchup against the Broncos, who have allowed the second-fewest wide receiver fantasy points this season. Kirk has missed two games on two occasions this season with hamstring issues, and in his three healthy contests has totaled 10 catches on 16 targets for 109 yards. The Texans have young receivers who stepped up while Kirk was out, so it will be very interesting to see how the veteran works back into the mix on Sunday. He is the WR58 in RotoBaller's rankings for Week 9, so he's tough to start in most formats unless bye weeks and injuries have you desperate for PPR production.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs had mediocre fantasy production in the first three weeks of the 2025 NFL season. Since Week 4, however, Doubs has been excellent and has cemented his spot as the top wide receiver target for the Packers. In the last five games, Doubs has averaged 8.2 targets, 5.4 receptions, and 64 receiving yards, providing a much-needed floor for the Packers this season. Now, with Tucker Kraft's season-ending knee injury, Doubs will be relied on even more as the unquestioned top target for the Packers. At the very least, Doubs keeps his consistent production going through the rest of the season, but if he adds some more looks without Kraft, then he can add some true fantasy ceiling to that solid floor. With double-digit fantasy points in four of his last five games, Doubs should be a fantasy WR3 in a tough matchup against the Eagles in Week 10.
