Should I Start Denzel Boston?

Friday, October 2, 5:19 AM

Cleveland Browns rookie wide receiver Denzel Boston caught four of seven targets for 89 yards in the 27-24 win over division rival Pittsburgh. With quarterback Deshaun Watson off to a strong start to his 2026 season, Boston has produced, including a 60-yard reception down the left sideline. The rookie has now had three 45+ yard receptions in four games and remains a major part of the Browns' passing attack. He also saw elite usage again Thursday night, playing 95% of the snaps and running 100% of the routes. As long as Watson continues to play well and feed the Browns' young, talented weapons, Boston will be a WR3 in fantasy formats. However, reliance on big plays could make him a volatile option moving forward.
