Who Should I Start? Devaughn Vele or Jordan Whittington

Monday, November 18, 10:12 AM

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Devaughn Vele quietly had a strong performance in the 38-6 blowout win over the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday in Week 11, although he wasn't on the receiving end of one of rookie quarterback Bo Nix's career-high four touchdown passes. Vele finished with four receptions on five targets for 66 receiving yards. Both his targets and yards were second on the team behind Courtland Sutton. The 26-year-old seventh-rounder out of Utah has had some impressive moments in his first NFL season, and while his 66 yards were his second-highest yardage total of the year, he's also failed to reach 40 yards in five of his seven games. Vele will continue to develop alongside Nix but can't realistically be trusted in starting fantasy lineups as anything more than a boom/bust WR5/flex in deeper leagues.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Jordan Whittington (shoulder) is officially inactive for Sunday's game against the Seattle Seahawks. He had been listed as questionable after logging limited practices ahead of Week 9. The 24-year-old has been dealing with an injury ever since Week 7, and it's going to result in him being sidelined for at least one more game. Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua continue to be the only must-start fantasy receivers within the Rams' offense.
