Who Should I Start? Jalen Nailor or DeMario Douglas

Monday, September 22, 4:09 PM

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jalen Nailor didn't do much in the team's 48-10 blowout win over the visiting Cincinnati Bengals in Week 3 on Sunday in his last chance at an elevated role in Minnesota's passing attack. Nailor secured three of his five targets from veteran quarterback Carson Wentz for 37 yards, which was third on the team. His 37 yards were actually the most he's had in three games in 2025 in what was his best chance for an elevated workload with Jordan Addison suspended for the first three contests. Addison is set to make his season debut in Week 4 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, so the 26-year-old Nailor will likely have a reduced role. So far this year, Nailor has seven receptions on 13 targets for 96 scoreless yards. He belongs on the waiver wire in 12-team fantasy leagues with Addison making his return.

New England Patriots wide receiver DeMario Douglas is off the fantasy radar heading into Week 4 against the Carolina Panthers. The 24-year-old receiver has struggled to strengthen his rapport with Drake Maye this year, catching just five of his 13 targets for a measly 13 yards. Douglas has always been a short-yardage receiver with low touchdown totals, but his track record as a target hog seemed to give him some fantasy relevance in PPR drafts last month. That relevance has quickly slipped away as Douglas can now be dropped in most fantasy leagues. He's particularly unappealing this week as he faces the Panthers, who have surrendered the fewest catches, second-fewest receiving yards, and second-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers in 2025.
