Who Should I Start? Jalen Coker or Jack Bech

Monday, December 8, 9:26 PM

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Jalen Coker missed the first six weeks of the season due to an injury. Once he returned, Coker was quiet on the field during his first few games. The 24-year-old has picked up his play lately, which could make him an intriguing waiver-wire option coming out of Carolina's Week 14 bye week. Over the last three games, Coker has recorded 11 receptions for 158 yards and one touchdown. Coker appears to be gaining more trust after seeing a season-high six targets in the Week 13 upset win over the Los Angeles Rams. He has put himself on the fantasy radar and could be worth snagging in deep leagues ahead of the Week 15 matchup against the division-rival New Orleans Saints.

Las Vegas Raiders rookie wide receiver Jack Bech is expected to have an expanded role during the Week 14 matchup versus the Denver Broncos, with fellow rookie Dont'e Thornton Jr. (concussion) ruled out. The Raiders are banged up with only three healthy wideouts right now. Last week, Bech hauled in two of his three targets for 22 yards in the loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. He played 56 percent of the offensive snaps, which was the most for Bech since Week 7. The rookie wideout figures to see more of the field on Sunday, but production isn't guaranteed, especially against one of the best defenses in the NFL. The Raiders have struggled to move the ball in the passing game this season. Bech should be viewed as a risky flex option, even in the deepest of leagues, for Week 14.
