Who Should I Start? Davante Adams or Jauan Jennings

Friday, December 19, 5:27 PM

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said that wide receiver Davante Adams (hamstring) likely won't play in Week 17's matchup against the Atlanta Falcons, per Adam Grosbard of the Los Angeles Daily News. The 33-year-old wideout missed Thursday night's matchup against the Seattle Seahawks after aggravating a hamstring injury during Week 15's win over the Detroit Lions. The star wideout has had an incredible first season in Los Angeles, hauling in 60 receptions for 789 yards and a league-leading 14 touchdowns on 114 targets in 14 games. Star receiver Puka Nacua should continue to see a heavy dose of targets in Adams' absence, with Konata Mumpfield, Xavier Smith, Tutu Atwell, and Jordan Whittington vying for opportunities behind him.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings tallied two more touchdowns in Week 15 but again turned in a low-yardage game with just 37 yards against the Titans. Jennings has at least one touchdown in five of the 49ers' last six games, but is averaging 47.2 yards per game during that stretch. He could be in store for a more productive day in Week 16, when San Francisco faces the Indianapolis Colts, which has surrendered more receiving yards to slot targets than any other team. Jennings has played out of the slot more frequently than any other receiver for San Francisco this season. If Ricky Pearsall (knee/ankle) is unable to play, then Jennings would likely see a slight bump in targets on Monday, as well. Jennings projects as a WR2 and can be plugged into starting lineups in Week 16.
