Who Should I Start? DeVante Parker or Cooper Kupp

Monday, May 20, 8:11 PM

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVante Parker announced his retirement on Monday evening. The 31-year-old, who signed with the Eagles in March, was once one of the NFL's most promising wideouts. He spent most of his career in Miami, where he had the best season of his career in 2019 by amassing 1,202 yards and nine touchdowns off 72 receptions. Parker spent a few more years in Miami before suiting up for the Patriots over the last two seasons. However, he was nowhere near as productive as he was in 2019, so New England released him. The 31-year-old will finish his NFL career by totaling 690 catches for 5,660 yards and 27 touchdowns.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp will enter his second matchup against his former team, the Los Angeles Rams, in Week 16. The Rams are 24th against opposing wide receivers in fantasy, but Kupp's volume has been so low for most of the season that he has been very inconsistent for fantasy. Kupp recorded five receptions on seven targets in Week 15. However, Kupp's seven targets marked just the fifth time he had exceeded four targets in a game all season. With fellow wide receiver Rashid Shaheed's role with this offense growing, and tight end AJ Barner playing a factor, it is difficult to predict another seven-plus target game for Kupp. Kupp is a bench option for now in case his role is increasing down the stretch of the season, but he is a very risky starting option in Week 16.
