Who Should I Start? Donovan Peoples-Jones or Tyrie Cleveland

The Detroit Lions signed wide receiver Donovan Peoples-Jones to their practice squad on Thursday after releasing him on Tuesday. In other moves, the team placed defensive lineman John Cominsky (knee) on Injured Reserve and released safety C.J. Moore from the practice squad. Peoples-Jones will remain in the Detroit organization as wideout depth to start the 2024 regular season. He began last year with the Browns before joining the Lions for eight games (one) start, where caught just five passes for 58 yards. The 25-year-old former sixth-round pick by the Browns in 2020 out of Michigan struggled last year after a career year in 2022 in Cleveland in which he had a 61-839-3 line in 17 games (14 starts). DPJ should eventually see time in Detroit again in 2024 if any of the receivers on the 53-man roster go down with an injury, but he's currently off the fantasy radar.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Tyrie Cleveland (head, neck) was carted off the field during Thursday's preseason matchup versus the Browns. Luckily, the update wasn't as bad as expected, with the wideout officially diagnosed with a concussion and sprained neck. He's expected to make a full recovery. Cleveland has appeared in 23 games during his career, all in Denver, amassing just eight catches for 91 yards. He signed with the Eagles during the offseason, but he'll need to scratch and claw to make the active roster for Week 1, assuming he's healthy by then.
