Who Should I Start? Demarcus Robinson or Noah Brown

Saturday, November 29, 4:23 AM

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Demarcus Robinson caught his one and only target for an eight-yard gain in Week 12. It was his second straight game with a single reception, bringing the 30-year-old veteran's season-long production to 13 receptions for 163 yards on 23 targets. Even amid the rash of injuries to the 49ers' offense, Robinson failed to make an impact. That is unlikely to change, now that Jauan Jennings, Ricky Pearsall (knee), and George Kittle are all active again. In Week 13, San Francisco is on the road to face the Browns, who have given up the second-fewest receptions and receiving yards to opposing wide receivers in 2025. The forecast in Cleveland calls for 25 MPH winds, rain, and snow, making it unlikely that the 49ers' open up their passing attack and provide Robinson with more work. He can be left off of fantasy football rosters this week.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Noah Brown (groin, knee) has been ruled out for the Week 13 game against the visiting Denver Broncos on Sunday night in Week 13, according to head coach Dan Quinn. The Commanders opened Brown's 21-day practice window this week, but he will stay on Injured Reserve for another week. The 29-year-old's next chance to return will be for a Week 14 tilt against the Minnesota Vikings. The good news for the Commanders is that they will be getting Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) back for the first time since he aggravated his quad injury in Week 8. When Brown does return, he'll be battling for targets behind McLaurin and Deebo Samuel Sr. and won't be a must-roster player in 12-team fantasy football leagues. Brown has played in just two games in 2025 due to his injuries and has three receptions on seven targets for 36 scoreless yards.
