Who Should I Start? Deebo Samuel Sr. or Jauan Jennings

Saturday, November 8, 2:33 PM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. has had a few down weeks after a hot start to the season. Samuel has posted just 12 catches for 67 yards on 17 targets to go with three carries for three yards over his past three games. The veteran missed Washington's Week 7 matchup in Dallas due to a heel injury, which could be impacting his performance. Samuel will be without second-year quarterback Jayden Daniels (elbow) for a few weeks, which will likely hurt Samuel's production a bit. In Marcus Mariota's three starts, Samuel has still been solid and leads the team in targets (15) and receptions (11), but is third in receiving yards (94) and has scored one touchdown. Samuel has a solid matchup in Week 10 against a Lions defense that has allowed the sixth most PPR points per game to opposing wide receivers. Samuel ranks as RotoBaller's WR21 in PPR leagues for Sunday.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings caught six of his nine targets for 71 receiving yards and a touchdown in Week 10. He also lost a fumble in the team's 42-26 loss to the Rams. The touchdown was Jennings' second in as many weeks and his third of the season. With Ricky Pearsall (knee) and Brandon Aiyuk (knee) out, Jennings is the 49ers' unquestioned WR1. Jennings' production has not met preseason expectations, especially while being targeted on 25.4% of routes run. Week 10 was just Jennings' second top-24 finish among wide receivers, but as long as he continues seeing that kind of opportunity share, Jennings is still worth keeping in fantasy football lineups. Another good week could be in store when the 49ers face the Cardinals in Week 11. Jennings was inactive when the teams met in Week 3, but Pearsall posted 117 yards on eight catches in that game.
