Who Should I Start? Davante Adams or JuJu Smith-Schuster

Saturday, December 6, 10:06 AM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams continues to exceed expectations, and he extended his terrific touchdown streak to six games last week. During that six-week span, he has 11 trips to the end zone and ranks as the overall WR3 in half-PPR leagues. Perhaps the biggest hole in Adams' game has been his catch volume. He hasn't caught more than six passes in a single game this year, and he's averaging a relatively modest 4.3 catches per game. However, he has made up for it with his absurd touchdown efficiency. He's on pace to break his career-best 18 touchdowns in a single season, needing just four more touchdowns over the final five games. Adams has shown that he can co-exist with Puka Nacua in fantasy football, with Adams being the touchdown threat while Nacua is the target and yardage machine. The 32-year-old ranks as the overall WR7 in RotoBaller's fantasy rankings for Week 14 against the Arizona Cardinals, and he should be started in all leagues. Arizona has allowed the 12th-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers in 2025, but Adams has shown that he is matchup-proof.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster has fallen off the fantasy radar after three lower-volume outings. The veteran receiver saw his snap share fall from 63 percent to 36 percent when Rashee Rice returned from suspension in Week 7, and he's been held to fewer than one-third of the snaps ever since then. During that three-week span, he had six total catches, bottoming out last week with just one target, one catch, and two receiving yards. The 28-year-old now finds himself behind Rice, Travis Kelce, Xavier Worthy, and Marquise Brown in the pecking order. As long as those pass catchers stay healthy, Smith-Schuster will remain off the fantasy radar on the other side of the Chiefs' Week 10 bye.
