Who Should I Start? Ja'Marr Chase or Malik Nabers

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase had four catches for 35 yards in Sunday's narrow loss to the Chiefs. After nearly sitting out Week 1 against the Pats, the wideout finished with six catches for 62 yards. While that wasn't what fantasy managers were hoping for, it was still better than what he produced in Week 2. The former LSU Tiger hasn't met expectations through the first two weeks of the 2024-25 campaign. However, there's no way to justify keeping him out of the starting lineup when the Bengals meet the Commanders for a Monday Night Football showdown. Hopefully, with the distraction of contract talks now on hold until after the season, he'll turn things around.

New York Giants rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers was a bright spot in Sunday's 21-18 loss to the Washington Commanders, hauling in 10 catches for 127 yards and a touchdown on a massive 18 targets. Nabers showcased his big-play ability, averaging 12.7 yards per catch and notching a cath-and-run 28-yard reception. Nabers did have a crucial drop at the end of the game, but that rookie errors can be expected as he adjusts to the NFL. Despite the Giants' struggles, fantasy managers can take solace in his hefty target share and reliable production, proving he's more than just a deep threat. With his combination of volume and playmaking ability, Nabers is a legit WR1 with huge upside.
