Who Should I Start? Courtland Sutton or Jordan Addison

Wednesday, November 5, 7:32 PM

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton will look to resume his spot as the team's No. 1 wideout against the Las Vegas Raiders on Thursday night, despite having three different games where he caught one reception. In Week 9 against the stingy Houston Texans, Sutton's lone catch ended up going for a 30-yard touchdown reception that jump-started the Denver offense towards their comeback win. Counterpart Troy Franklin has been the leader in targets for the past two weeks straight. Still, it's arguable that Sutton's alpha spot in the offense isn't being threatened, as he just signed a four-year contract extension in July and continues to find the end zone. As RotoBaller's WR11 for the week, continue looking at Sutton with weekly scoring upside as a back-end WR1.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison remains a quality WR3/flex option when his team takes on the Detroit Lions in a Week 9 meeting of NFC North foes. It remains to be seen how the USC product meshes with starting quarterback J.J. McCarthy, with whom Addison has never appeared in a regular-season game. McCarthy has played in just two games since the start of 2024, and Addison was suspended for both of them. Addison has a decent matchup against a Lions team that has surrendered 14 passing touchdowns in seven games, which is one of the worst marks in the league, but Minnesota has had major issues protecting the quarterback. The Vikings rank 31st in sack rate and managed a miserable 47 plays last week in a loss to the L.A. Chargers, though Addison accounted for the team's only touchdown. Addison has shown steady fantasy appeal this season, giving managers reason to believe he can perform even in the midst of the Vikings' struggles.
