Who Should I Start? Davante Adams or Marvin Harrison Jr.

Monday, December 29, 7:17 PM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams (hamstring), who came into Monday night listed as doubtful, is officially inactive versus the hosting Atlanta Falcons in Week 17. It will be the second straight game that Adams will miss due to a lingering left-hamstring injury. The 33-year-old veteran is expected to be held out in the Week 18 regular-season finale this Sunday against the division-rival Arizona Cardinals as well. In last Thursday night's crazy overtime loss to the Seattle Seahawks, Xavier Smith and Konata Mumpfield stepped up in Adams' absence behind star receiver Puka Nacua to combine for five catches and 97 receiving yards. In addition to Smith and Mumpfield, tight ends Davis Allen, Terrance Ferguson, and Colby Parkinson should remain more involved in the passing attack. Adams is fully expected to be ready to return for the wild-card round of the postseason.

Arizona Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon said on Monday that wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. (foot) suffered a new foot injury in Sunday's loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. Harrison missed Weeks 14 and 15 due to a heel injury that was on the opposite foot of the one he injured in Week 17. Gannon said that Harrison will play in the Week 18 regular-season finale this Sunday against the division-rival Los Angeles Rams "if he is healthy enough to play." Given all of the 23-year-old's injuries this year and the fact that the Cardinals have nothing to play for, fantasy managers still playing for a championship this week shouldn't be holding their breath for Harrison. Even if Harrison ends up suiting up, he probably won't be on the field all that much as the No. 3 target behind Michael Wilson and star tight end Trey McBride.
