Who Should I Start? DeSean Jackson or Miles Boykin

Wednesday, November 29, 10:12 AM

Veteran wide receiver DeSean Jackson is retiring from football after a 15-year NFL career that featured three Pro Bowls, one All-Pro selection, and seven seasons of at least 900 yards receiving. The 2008 second-round pick spent time with the Philadelphia Eagles, Washington Redskins, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Los Angeles Rams, Las Vegas Raiders, and Baltimore Ravens. Last season, he totaled 153 yards with Baltimore. Overall, he posted 641 receptions for 11,263 yards, and 58 receiving touchdowns. He also recorded four rushing touchdowns and four punt return touchdowns.

The New York Giants signed free-agent wide receiver Miles Boykin on Tuesday, according to Ari Meirov of the 33rd Team. The former third-round pick in the 2019 NFL Draft out of Notre Dame spent the last two seasons with the Pittsburgh Steelers after three years with the Baltimore Ravens. In 73 NFL games, the 27-year-old has hauled in just 38 receptions for 498 yards and seven touchdowns. Although New York has one of the weakest wide receiver groups in the league, it's hard to find a path toward fantasy football success for Boykin based on his lack of productivity to begin his career. In all likelihood, he will be a backup wideout or fail to make the 53-man roster ahead of Week 1.
