Who Should I Start? DJ Chark or CeeDee Lamb

The Atlanta Falcons have released veteran wide receiver DJ Chark, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. The team signed Chark in late July after wide receiver Darnell Mooney (shoulder) went down with a shoulder injury early in training camp. While Mooney has yet to return to the field, Chark's release could be an indication that Atlanta is confident that Mooney will not miss significant time. It could also simply mean that Chark was not part of the team's 53-man roster plans, regardless of Mooney's status. With Chark no longer in Atlanta, veteran KhaDarel Hodge looks like the top candidate to receive more playing time while Mooney is sidelined.

After missing three games due to a high-ankle sprain, Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb returned to the field in Week 7 and showed little sign of rust. Lamb recorded five catches for 110 yards and a touchdown on eight targets in his team's 44-22 win over the Washington Commanders. The 26-year-old has now hauled in 21 catches for 332 yards and a score on 32 targets across four games played, one of which he was forced to leave very early on after injuring his ankle. The Cowboys' offense is averaging over 250 passing yards and 30 points per game so far this season, which should put Lamb in a position for monster production on a week-to-week basis. Now that he's back on the field and appears fully healthy, Lamb is a must-start fantasy wide receiver heading into his team's Week 8 matchup against the Denver Broncos.
