Who Should I Start? Cooper Kupp or Chris Olave

Sunday, December 22, 8:44 PM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp only had three catches on three targets Sunday for 24 yards in the Rams' win over the Jets on Sunday afternoon. The Rams relied heavily on Kyren Williams and the ground game, leaving Kupp with limited work while Matthew Stafford totaled just 110 passing yards. In his 11 games this season, Kupp has caught 66 passes for 681 yards and six touchdowns. It was a step forward from his performance last week without a catch, but he's gone quiet at the worst time for fantasy owners while Puka Nacua has taken over as the focus of the passing attack.

New Orleans Saints Chris Olave (concussion) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. Olave was ruled out for Monday's game against the Green Bay Packers and has been sidelined since Week 9 due to a concussion. The 24-year-old was designated to return from injured reserve last week and is trending in the right direction toward playing in Sunday's game against the Las Vegas Raiders. He will need to be officially activated later this week in order to have a chance to suit up in Week 17. Olave would give the banged-up Saints wide receiver corps a boost after catching 32 passes for 400 yards and a touchdown over eight games. The former first-round pick would be a low-end WR3 this week if active. The Saints were recently shut out, and New Orleans' offense has been downgraded, with Derek Carr (hand) sidelined. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor the situation and hope Olave can return to action for fantasy championship week.
