Who Should I Start? Gabe Davis or Troy Franklin

Friday, November 28, 6:37 PM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Gabe Davis was signed from the practice squad to the active roster on Friday. Davis has been elevated each of the last two weeks, but will now join the active roster. There's a spot available for Davis with Curtis Samuel (elbow) heading to the injured reserve. Davis has been quiet with four receptions for 62 yards during his first two games of the season. The Bills are extremely banged up at wideout right now, so Davis might offer some fantasy value. The 26-year-old shouldn't be considered anything more than a deep league flex option ahead of the Week 13 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Troy Franklin has operated as the team's No. 2 wide receiver opposite Courtland Sutton for the vast majority of the season. However, his role in the offense has decreased lately, beginning in Week 13 against the Washington Commanders. The second-year wideout played 37 offensive snaps in that game, his lowest all season at that time, but his 68.8% route share still aligned with his season average of 71.6%. Both marks plummeted in the Week 14 win over the Las Vegas Raiders, as his snaps were cut in half to just 19 and his route share dipped to a season-low 39.5%. Rookie third-rounder Pat Bryant has seemingly overtaken him as the No. 2 option opposite Sutton. After leading the Broncos in targets for most of the season, Franklin's role has been cut back due to his inconsistent hands and limitations as a run-blocker. He profiles as a low-ceiling flex option heading into Week 15 against a tough Green Bay Packers defense.
