Who Should I Start? Jahan Dotson or Zay Flowers

Monday, October 2, 6:30 PM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Jahan Dotson (ankle) was included on the team's first injury report in Week 5 on Monday ahead of their Thursday night game against the Chicago Bears. The team only held a walkthrough, but it was estimated that Dotson was a limited participant. The 23-year-old's status is now in question for this week, but as long as he doesn't suffer any notable setback, he figures to be good to go. Dotson has gotten off to a slow start so far in 2023, but he did score his first touchdown of the year in the Week 4 overtime loss to the Philadelphia Eagles while securing four of nine targets for 27 yards. If he's healthy enough to play this Thursday, he could have an even bigger game coming against Chicago's porous defense.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers may not have found the endzone yet this season but he now has caught 21 of his 25 targets through three games. The rookie saw another 10 targets against the Colts and hauled in eight of them for 48 yards while also getting one carry for just two yards. In PPR formats, Flowers has produced reliable fantasy stat lines since he tends to see a lot of close-range targets. The passing game still seems to be working out some kinks, so Flowers and company could improve as the season goes on. Week 4, however, will be a tougher challenge against the Browns defense.
