Who Should I Start? Davante Adams or Rashee Rice

Friday, December 12, 3:06 PM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams (hamstring) will carry a questionable designation into Sunday's Week 15 matchup with the Lions, according to head coach Sean McVay. However, McVay added that he would be very surprised if his All-Pro wideout is unable to play. In his first season in Los Angeles, Adams has paired with third-year receiver Puka Nacua to form one of the most feared tandems in the league, helping to propel Matthew Stafford into the MVP conversation. Adams has proven particularly dangerous near the goal line, where his 11 receiving touchdowns from inside the 10-yard line match the next two players (Amon-Ra St. Brown and Christian McCaffrey) combined. While he was unable to find the endzone in a Week 14 win over the Cardinals, Adams has still recorded 11 touchdowns across his last seven games and is RotoBaller's WR5 heading into Sunday.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice was held in check by the Houston Texans in last week's loss. The Chiefs WR1 caught four passes for 34 yards, finishing third on the team in receiving yardage. Despite his lackluster performance, Rice still finished with a team-high eight targets, demonstrating the team's determination to keep him involved. The 26-year-old may once again struggle to find success this week against the Los Angeles Chargers. The Chargers defense is allowing the second-fewest fantasy points to opposing wide receivers this season, making them one of the most difficult matchups at the position. Rice has been the team's focal point on offense since his return, so he should continue to be heavily involved despite the matchup. Rice was also listed on the injury report with a hamstring injury this week, but was a full participant in every practice and does not have an injury designation for Sunday's game. Rice is ranked WR4 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, making him a top-end WR1 option again this week despite his recent struggles.
