Who Should I Start? Davante Adams or Jakobi Meyers

Saturday, December 27, 6:51 PM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams (hamstring) is now downgraded to doubtful ahead of the Monday Night matchup versus the Atlanta Falcons. Adams was initially questionable after not practicing all week due to a lingering hamstring issue. Now, Adams is doubtful to suit up for Week 17. Adams hasn't played since aggravating his hamstring problem during the Week 15 matchup against the Detroit Lions. Fantasy managers should check back on Monday night for Adams' official status, but have other plans, as he's unlikely to play. Konata Mumpfield, Xavier Smith, and Tutu Atwell should see an increased target share if Adams is unable to play. Mumpfield saw eight targets last week and could offer FLEX value in deep leagues for Week 17.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers is among the safer options at wide receiver this week against the Indianapolis Colts. The Jaguars' offense is clicking, and Meyers has been the most consistently targeted option for Trevor Lawrence. He has had at least six targets in every game since Week 11 and has usually been able to muster at least a good chunk of yards or a touchdown. Against the Colts in Week 14, he earned his most targets of the season with the Jaguars, with 10, but only managed four catches for 39 yards, but salvaged his fantasy day with a touchdown. Given his consistent involvement with the offense, Meyers is a safe play in Week 17 for managers looking for someone reliable to start in their fantasy championship.
