Who Should I Start? Davante Adams or Terry McLaurin

Tuesday, January 6, 6:14 PM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams (hamstring) was listed as a full-go on the team's estimated injury report on Tuesday, according to Sarah Barshop of ESPN. Adams was held out of the final three regular-season games as a way to ensure that he'd be closer to 100% for a postseason run. The 33-year-old should be active for Saturday's Wild-Card matchup against the hosting Carolina Panthers, and he shouldn't have any restrictions in terms of workload. Despite missing time going into the playoffs, the Pro Bowl pass-catcher should be viewed as a top-five fantasy receiver in playoff leagues. Adams finished the 2025 campaign with a league-high 14 touchdown receptions despite missing the final three games, and he added a healthy 60 receptions for 789 yards in his 14 games. Adams is quarterback Matthew Stafford's No. 1 target in the red zone.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin has provided a major lift to the passing game since returning in Week 13. McLaurin has compiled 16 catches on 26 targets for 259 receiving yards and two touchdowns, ranking 16th among wide receivers in yards over that span. The 30-year-old wideout has a golden matchup on Christmas Day against a Dallas Cowboys defense that is allowing a league-high 8.8 yards per pass attempt over the last five games. However, the Ohio State product could be catching passes from journeyman quarterback Josh Johnson, with Marcus Mariota (hand, quadriceps) uncertain to play after missing two straight practices to open the week. McLaurin still profiles as a solid start with upside in Week 17 as Washington's clear top target, ranking as RotoBaller's WR14 in PPR leagues.
