Who Should I Start? Devaughn Vele or Chimere Dike

Friday, December 19, 2:45 PM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Devaughn Vele (shoulder) has been placed on injured reserve, ending his season before the team's Week 16 matchup with the Jets. Vele suffered the season-ending shoulder injury during the fourth quarter of a Week 15 win over the Panthers and had already been ruled out for Sunday. Vele had established a strong rapport with rookie quarterback Tyler Shough, regularly seeing target shares in the high-teens to mid-20s, and his absence should see tight end Juwan Johnson step in as the team's number two pass-catching option behind Chris Olave. Olave, who has seen double-digit targets only once since Shough took over as starter, but has found the endzone in three of his last five games, could once again see the type of heavy volume that defined his early season and is RotoBaller's WR11 for Week 16.

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Chimere Dike is beginning to become a bigger piece in the offensive gameplan. Dike didn't have much of a receiving role early, but has been one of the better pass-catchers in Tennessee down the stretch of the season. The rookie wideout has scored three touchdowns over his last five games. He has finished with three or more receptions in four of those contests. Dike will head into a tough matchup against the New Orleans Saints defense. A unit that has allowed the third-fewest receiving yards to wideouts this season. The Titans' offense is difficult to trust, but Dike could offer FLEX appeal in deep leagues for Week 17.
