Who Should I Start? Deebo Samuel Sr. or Travis Hunter

Saturday, December 13, 12:59 PM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. (illness) has posted at least four receptions in five straight games, averaging 12.7 PPR points per game over that stretch. Samuel was added to the injury report on Friday after missing practice with an illness, and he's currently listed as questionable for Sunday's divisional game against the New York Giants. The veteran should be considered likely to suit up on Sunday, barring something changing. The former San Francisco 49er had an excellent fantasy outing in his Week 1 matchup against the Giants, hauling in seven of 10 targets for 77 yards while adding one carry for a 19-yard touchdown. If he's active, Samuel profiles as a solid WR3 option in Week 15 against a Giants defense that has allowed the fourth most PPR points per game to opposing wide receivers.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver/defensive back Travis Hunter (knee) unfortunately saw his rookie campaign come to an early end. Hunter was only able to play in seven games before suffering a season-ending knee injury that required surgery. There was speculation that Hunter might make the switch to one position following this injury. So far, the Jags have stated they plan to continue using Hunter as a two-way player. His injury occurred during a non-contact play during practice, so it doesn't sound like it had anything to do with the wear-and-tear of playing two positions. He finished his rookie season with 28 receptions for 298 yards and one touchdown.
