Who Should I Start? Cooper Kupp or Garrett Wilson

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp will enter his second matchup against his former team, the Los Angeles Rams, in Week 16. The Rams are 24th against opposing wide receivers in fantasy, but Kupp's volume has been so low for most of the season that he has been very inconsistent for fantasy. Kupp recorded five receptions on seven targets in Week 15. However, Kupp's seven targets marked just the fifth time he had exceeded four targets in a game all season. With fellow wide receiver Rashid Shaheed's role with this offense growing, and tight end AJ Barner playing a factor, it is difficult to predict another seven-plus target game for Kupp. Kupp is a bench option for now in case his role is increasing down the stretch of the season, but he is a very risky starting option in Week 16.

The New York Jets have yet to open the 21-day practice window for wide receiver Garrett Wilson (knee), according to ESPN's Rich Cimini. Head coach Aaron Glenn reiterated that the team still has to consult with doctors on Wilson's status. Wilson remains on Injured Reserve after aggravating a knee injury back in Week 10. At this point, with only four games remaining in the 2025 season, it's fair to wonder if the 25-year-old pass-catcher will be allowed to come back with the Jets out of playoff contention. With Wilson almost certain to be ruled out for Week 15 against the Jacksonville Jaguars, receivers John Metchie III and Adonai Mitchell will continue to operate as the top two receivers, but they might be taking passes from undrafted rookie quarterback Brady Cook this week with both Tyrod Taylor (groin) and Justin Fields (knee) nursing injuries.
