Who Should I Start? Gabe Davis or Jalen Coker

Saturday, December 13, 9:54 AM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Gabe Davis has played in four games with the team this season after spending time on Injured Reserve due to a knee injury earlier in the season. Davis has played 53.8% of the offensive snaps, second-highest among Bills wideouts behind Khalil Shakir in that time, and has compiled seven receptions for 88 yards on 10 targets. The 26-year-old receiver is a trusted veteran who knows the Bills' offensive system and is a reliable blocker in the running game, which has earned him the right to be on the field more often than not. The floor for production isn't high for Davis in a spread-out and low-volume Bills passing attack, though, and he profiles as a deep-league flex option in Week 15 against the New England Patriots.

The Carolina Panthers' offense was virtually non-existent in Sunday's 27-10 loss to the Seattle Seahawks, with quarterback Bryce Young throwing for only 54 yards on the day. Wide receiver Jalen Coker caught both of his targets for only 16 yards, but that was good enough to lead the team. The dud performance broke a string of six straight games in which Coker had at least three receptions. In Weeks 13, 15, and 16, the 24-year-old pass-catcher had a combined 11 receptions on 15 targets for 181 yards and two touchdown grabs as he appeared to be trending towards becoming the No. 2 WR behind rookie first-rounder Tetairoa McMillan. The entire Carolina offense should bounce back this weekend in the Week 18 game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, with the NFC South title and a trip to the postseason on the line. Don't count out Coker being a serviceable WR4/flex option in deeper fantasy football leagues.
