Who Should I Start? Jalen Tolbert or Tre Tucker

Sunday, October 5, 8:39 AM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Jalen Tolbert has been seeing an increased role in the offense over the last few weeks. In the last two games, Tolbert has hauled in seven of his 12 targets for 85 yards. The 26-year-old has played over 80 percent of the offensive snaps during those games. The absence of CeeDee Lamb (ankle) has helped Tolbert, but it hasn't given him great fantasy value. Tolbert is worth a stash in deep leagues at the minimum. He should be considered a low-end flex option for the upcoming Week 5 matchup against the New York Jets.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tre Tucker hauled in four catches for 62 yards on six targets in his team's Week 5 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. The 24-year-old now has 19 catches for 286 yards and four touchdowns through his first five games of 2025. Tucker's production is mostly buoyed by a 145-yard, three-touchdown game in Week 3. Still, he's not a bad option for fantasy managers in deeper leagues to have on their bench, particularly with Raiders tight end Brock Bowers (knee) currently battling a knee injury and uncertain to play in Week 6. Tucker should be rostered in all leagues with 12 or more teams and profiles as a boom/bust WR4/flex option in Week 6 against the Tennessee Titans.
