Who Should I Start? Gunner Olszewski or Justin Shorter

Sunday, December 14, 11:45 AM

New York Giants wide receiver Gunner Olszewski (concussion) is officially inactive for Sunday's Week 15 contest against the Washington Commanders. He had been listed as questionable and won't suit up despite logging a full practice on Friday. Olszewski has primarily played on special teams lately, so his absence won't have a major impact on the Giants' offense or fantasy football. Look for Devin Singletary to step up as New York's primary kick returner this week.

The Las Vegas Raiders have made a series of back-of-roster moves, elevating third-year wide receiver Justin Shorter to the active roster and signing veteran receiver Phillip Dorsett to fill his spot on the practice squad. The Raiders were able to open a roster spot after moving Amari Cooper to the Reserve/Retired list following his unheralded retirement announcement on Thursday. At 6'4" and 227 pounds, Shorter was drafted by the Buffalo Bills in 2023 but spent his rookie season on injured reserve. He spent 2024 between the Raiders' active roster and practice squad as he transitioned to playing tight end. He made ten regular-season appearances without registering a stat. While the Raiders search for any depth in the wide receiver room, Shorter's signing should have no significance to fantasy managers.
