Who Should I Start? Jalen Nailor or Emeka Egbuka

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jalen Nailor should be avoided in most formats when his struggling offense goes on the road to play Green Bay in Week 12. The Vikings have counted on Nailor in big spots -- like a game-clinching catch at Detroit and a fourth-quarter touchdown against Baltimore -- but his overall volume, 3.7 targets per game, hasn't been enough to rely upon on a week-to-week basis. Additionally, the Vikings are having a hard time simply staying on the field. During the past three weeks, Minnesota has averaged 58 plays as quarterback J.J. McCarthy has struggled to acclimate to the NFL. With Nailor set to face a Green Bay defense that ranks ninth overall against half-PPR receivers, managers should look for a better option this week.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Emeka Egbuka doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's Week 12 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. Egbuka has been battling an illness this week, but it's not serious enough to hold him out of this contest. The rookie wideout has slowed down in the second half after his epic beginning to the year. Egbuka has been held to 50 receiving yards or less in three of his last five games. The hope is that he'll rebound in what should be a high-scoring affair against the Rams this weekend. Egbuka has too much upside to keep out of fantasy lineups right now. However, he's probably not anything more than a WR2 at the moment
