Who Should I Start? Dyami Brown or Andrei Iosivas

Tuesday, November 11, 3:38 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dyami Brown cleared the league's concussion protocol and was given the green light to play in the Week 10 loss to the Houston Texans. Brown had an opportunity for more involvement in the passing game with rookie first-rounder Travis Hunter (knee) on Injured Reserve and Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) inactive, but he ended up playing just 37% of the offensive snaps while failing to catch his only target. Newcomer Jakobi Meyers led the Jags with 41 receiving yards on three catches, and Parker Washington scored through the air and on special teams. Brown has only 19 catches on 35 targets for 219 yards and one touchdown in eight games in his first year in Duval, but he makes more sense as a waiver addition in deeper leagues now that Hunter will miss the rest of the season. The 26-year-old will still be a boom/bust dart throw, though, and his short-term fantasy value will depend on whether Thomas misses more time with his ankle injury.

With star Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase sidelined by suspension in Week 12, Bengals wideout Andrei Iosivas recorded four catches for 61 yards on seven targets against the New England Patriots. While Chase will be back in Week 13 against the Baltimore Ravens, Iosivas could spend a second straight game in the WR2 role in Cincinnati. Bengals wideout Tee Higgins (concussion) is in the league's concussion protocol after suffering a head injury late in the game on Sunday against New England. Cincinnati faces a short week before playing Baltimore on Thursday night, which may make it difficult for Higgins to play in Week 13. Iosivas has proven that he can step up and provide solid fantasy production when either of Cincinnati's star wide receivers is out. In PPR leagues with 12 or more teams where he remains available, Iosivas should be a waiver-wire target.
