Who Should I Start? DeVante Parker or Courtland Sutton

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.

Across 16 games this season, Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton has recorded 73 receptions for 1,012 yards and seven touchdowns on 122 targets. The 30-year-old has re-emerged as his team's clear WR1 in recent weeks, earning 42 targets across four games in the month of December. Sutton had a down game in Week 17, recording just four catches for 40 yards. However, he had logged 323 receiving yards and three touchdown grabs across his last four games heading into the week. In Week 18, Denver will take on the Los Angeles Chargers. The Chargers have been a very tough pass defense so far this season, ranking fifth in the NFL in total passing yards allowed (3,173). However, Los Angeles may be resting key pieces on defense in Week 18, such as safety Derwin James and defensive end Khalil Mack, in preparation for the playoffs. Sutton should see plenty of targets and profiles as a high-end fantasy WR2 in Week 18.
