Who Should I Start? Jakobi Meyers or Ja'Marr Chase

Thursday, November 6, 2:09 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers walks into an immediate opportunity to dominate the target share as they face the Houston Texans in Week 10. Meyers joins a wide receiver room absent of Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) and Travis Hunter (knee). The Jaguars are averaging just 215.3 yards per game through the air, but Meyers' biggest competition for targets this week is 23-year-old Parker Washington. Trevor Lawrence and the offense face a tough test against a Texans defense that is allowing just 177.5 passing yards per game and ranks fourth with nine interceptions on the year. Meyers is a must-start option this week, as Lawrence tests out his new weapon on day one.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase entered the Week 8 loss to the New York Jets by catching at least one touchdown in each of his previous three games. While the former LSU Tiger didn't find the end zone in that one, he still had 12 catches for 91 yards. With the Bengals coming off a disappointing loss, they will try to get on track on Sunday against the Chicago Bears. Quarterback Joe Flacco (shoulder) didn't practice on Wednesday, which is not uncommon for older players, before being limited in Thursday's session. However, panic set in for fantasy managers when he didn't practice on Friday and was slapped with a questionable designation for Week 9. Fortunately, there's reason to believe the signal-caller will be out there on Sunday. It appears Flacco and Chase have quickly developed strong on-field chemistry in a short span, so the duo should continue to connect in the meeting with the Bears. If Flacco can't suit up, Jake Browning would be back under center. Although Browning's presence would presumably lower Chase's ceiling, the wideout remains a must-start for obvious reasons.
