Who Should I Start? Davante Adams or Terry McLaurin

Sunday, December 14, 7:30 AM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams (hamstring) is expected to play in Sunday's Week 15 contest against the Detroit Lions, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Head coach Sean McVay previously said that he thought Adams would be able to suit up, and Schefter's report aligns with McVay's comments. The veteran receiver has appeared in all 13 games so far and was listed as questionable to face Detroit. He posted a modest four catches for 29 yards last week, but prior to that, he put together an impressive six-game touchdown streak. Adams ranks as the overall WR6 in PPR leagues this year with 56 catches, 718 yards, and 14 trips to the end zone. He should be viewed as a top-10 fantasy receiver for Week 15 as the Rams host the Lions.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin will look to bounce back following last week's underwhelming fantasy performance against the Minnesota Vikings. He's trending in the right direction with a more favorable matchup in Week 15 against the New York Giants. The Giants have allowed the fourth-most receiving yards and fifth-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers in 2025. McLaurin has played in just six games this season, averaging 3.8 catches, 56.7 yards, and 0.3 touchdowns per contest. He'll be dealing with a change in quarterback this week as Marcus Mariota starts in place of Jayden Daniels (elbow), but that shouldn't have a significant effect on his fantasy value. McLaurin's best fantasy performance of the year came in Week 13 with Mariota under center, when the 30-year-old pass catcher had seven catches, 96 yards, and a touchdown in the Commanders' upset win over the Broncos. With a favorable matchup on tap, McLaurin should be viewed as a high-end WR2 in most leagues.
