Who Should I Start? Emeka Egbuka or Jacory Croskey-Merritt

Sunday, September 28, 9:59 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie wide receiver Emeka Egbuka recorded four catches for 101 yards and a touchdown on 10 targets in his team's 31-25 Week 4 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 22-year-old has now recorded 18 catches for 282 yards and four touchdowns on 31 targets through the first four games of his NFL career. With veteran wideout Mike Evans (hamstring) sidelined by a hamstring injury, Egbuka and Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin tied for the team lead in targets against the Eagles in Week 4. For as long as Evans remains out, Egbuka could be the number one option in the Tampa Bay passing game for quarterback Baker Mayfield. Egbuka profiles as a must-start fantasy wide receiver going into a Week 5 matchup with the Seattle Seahawks.

Washington Commanders running back Jacory Croskey-Merritt (knee) is officially active for Sunday's Week 4 contest against the Atlanta Falcons. He missed two practices earlier this week but was able to log a full session on Friday. As a result, he was widely expected to play despite being listed as questionable. Indeed, after testing his injury pregame, the rookie has progressed enough to play against Atlanta. He'll continue to operate within a committee that also includes Chris Rodriguez Jr. and Jeremy McNichols. At best, Croskey-Merritt is a low-end RB3/flex in leagues with at least 14 teams.
