Who Should I Start? Greg Dortch or Quintez Cephus

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Greg Dortch caught the team's first touchdown on a five-yard out-route in the 17-15 win over the Los Angeles Chargers. It was his only catch of the game, as Dortch was targeted just twice in Monday's victory. After being announced as the team's primary slot receiver going into the season and following a solid Week 1 performance, Dortch has not lived up to the production that some expected. The Cardinals also returned wide receiver Zay Jones from suspension, which impacted Dortch's snap count. Although he was able to find the end zone, his role may not have the potential to be fantasy-relevant. The Cardinals will travel to Miami to face the Dolphins in Week 8, and Dortch is likely not an option for fantasy managers.

The Los Angeles Rams have signed wide receiver Quintez Cephus to their practice squad amid injuries to their top two receivers, Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua. Cephus hasn't played in an NFL regular-season game since 2022, when he was with the Detroit Lions. The Rams' passing game struggled in Week 2 against the Cardinals, mainly after Cooper Kupp exited the game. Their current wide receiver group consists of Demarcus Robinson, Tyler Johnson, Jordan Whittington, and Tutu Atwell. The Rams did not place Kupp on injured reserve, indicating they expect him back within the nefew of weeks. Cephus is a depth move, and fantasy managers do not need to consider adding him to their rosters ahead of this week's matchup with the San Francisco 49ers.
