Who Should I Start? Cooper Kupp or Jaylen Waddle

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said that wide receiver Cooper Kupp (hamstring) will return to practice next week as the team activates his 21-day window to return from Injured Reserve. The Rams are still holding out hope that Kupp can make his 2023 debut in Week 5 against the Philadelphia Eagles, but we won't have a better idea of whether that is realistic or not until the 30-year-old resumes practicing. Kupp was a first-round pick in most fantasy drafts, so those that took him will surely hope he'll be back next week and pick up where he left off as quarterback Matthew Stafford's top target. How Kupp's return will affect the roles of rookie Puka Nacua and Tutu Atwell is yet to be seen, but they will inevitably have lower fantasy ceilings if Kupp his healthy.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (concussion) has been taken off the final Week 4 injury report on Friday and will play on Sunday against the division-rival Buffalo Bills. Waddle suffered a concussion in Week 2 and was forced to sit out of the 70-20 victory over the Denver Broncos last Sunday. The 24-year-old third-year wideout returns to face the toughest defense the Dolphins have encountered this year and it's on the road, but Waddle is a must-start WR2 for fantasy managers when he's active. In his two games played, he has eight catches on 11 targets for 164 yards. Waddle will be looking to find the end zone for the first time in 2023 in a big divisional showdown in Buffalo.
