Who Should I Start? Gabe Davis or Andrei Iosivas

Thursday, November 20, 5:17 PM

The Buffalo Bills elevated wide receiver Gabe Davis to the 53-man active roster for Thursday night's game against the Houston Texans after placing receiver Mecole Hardman (calf) on Injured Reserve, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Hardman was injured in his season debut with Buffalo in Sunday's win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and will now be forced to miss at least four games. The 27-year-old won't be eligible to return until Dec. 14 against the division-rival New England Patriots. Davis also made his season debut last weekend with Buffalo, catching three of his four targets for 40 yards in the 44-32 win. Veteran Curtis Samuel (elbow, neck) is also out for Thursday night, and second-year wideout Keon Coleman could be a healthy scratch for a second straight week. Meanwhile, Khalil Shakir missed practice time with a personal issue this week, and tight end Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) is out. Davis could have a bigger role in Week 12, albeit against the best defense in the NFL.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Andrei Iosivas is in line for an expanded role in Week 12. Through 10 games, he's caught 19 of 35 targets for 256 yards and one touchdown, averaging 5.2 PPR points per game. With star receiver Ja'Marr Chase suspended for the week, the Bengals will lean on Tee Higgins, Iosivas, and Mitchell Tinsley to fill the void. Higgins is expected to draw coverage from Patriots shutdown corner Christian Gonzalez, along with safety help, which should leave Iosivas in more favorable matchups. As Cincinnati fights to keep its season alive, Iosivas could become a key piece of the game plan. He profiles as a high-floor fantasy option and a low-end WR3 for Week 12 against New England.
