Who Should I Start? Cooper Kupp or Jerry Jeudy

Monday, January 26, 12:50 PM

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp found the end zone in a revenge game on Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams in Seattle's NFC Championship victory. Kupp, who played for the Rams for the first eight seasons of his career, caught four of his six targets for 36 yards and a touchdown in the 31-27 win. The 32-year-old veteran's touchdown grab came in the fourth quarter to put Seattle up for good in the back-and-forth affair. Kupp is no longer in the prime of his career, and he was more of a low-upside role player for the Seahawks in 2025, but he has been more of a factor on offense during two postseason contests. In wins over the Rams and San Francisco 49ers in the playoffs, Kupp has nine catches for 96 yards and a touchdown. He'll look to keep it going in two weeks in the Super Bowl against a New England Patriots defense that allowed the sixth-fewest receiving yards (2,014) during the regular season.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy has had a quiet season and is unlikely to make an impact in Week 17 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Last week against the Buffalo Bills, Jeudy played just 72% of the offensive snaps, his lowest snap share since Week 12, yet still posted a 94% route participation rate. The veteran wide-out brought in three of his four targets for 12 yards, which has been his average target share since rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders took over as the starter in Week 12. Despite this low production, Jeudy is still running routes on nearly every drop-back and remains the preferred wide receiver option, accounting for 38% of all WR targets over the last five games. Rain is expected in Cleveland at kickoff, which may put a damper on an already lackluster Browns air attack. Even though the Steelers' pass defense has given up the third-most passing yards per game this season in the league, they have stiffened since Week 13, allowing the sixth-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers. Jeudy profiles as a deep-league WR4/FLEX due to his opportunities and large target share, which may increase if rookie tight end Harold Fannin J. (groin) misses Week 17 due to his injury sustained during Friday's practice.
