Who Should I Start? Davante Adams or Terry McLaurin

Sunday, October 19, 1:27 PM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams had an excellent fantasy day on Sunday by catching five of his eight targets for 35 yards and three touchdowns in a 35-7 rout of Jacksonville. The veteran didn't do much from a yardage perspective, but created maximum value from his red-zone targets. Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford found Adams for touchdowns of two, one, and one yard as L.A. dominated the game from start to finish. Playing without Puka Nacua (ankle), Adams didn't get much volume, but the Rams ran nearly as many runs as passes thanks to creating an early lead. They'll take their bye next week before playing New Orleans in Week 9.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) is out for Sunday's divisional game against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 7, according to Ben Standig of The Athletic. There was optimism that McLaurin might return to action this weekend for the first time since injuring his quad in Week 3 when he was limited in Wednesday's practice. However, the 30-year-old was downgraded to a DNP on Thursday and will be held out for a fourth straight game. Fantasy managers need to keep him on their benches. Deebo Samuel Sr. (heel) has already missed two practices this week and could also be in question to play against Dallas. Washington placed Noah Brown (groin, knee) on Injured Reserve this week, which is why they added former Titans first-round wideout Treylon Burks to their practice squad on Thursday. With McLaurin officially out and Samuel questionable, more targets could be coming for Luke McCaffrey, rookie Jaylin Lane, and tight end Zach Ertz.
