Who Should I Start? James Proche or Zay Flowers

Wednesday, March 26, 10:50 PM

The Tennessee Titans announced on Wednesday that they signed free-agent wide receiver James Proche II to an undisclosed deal. Proche will head to the AFC South after spending the last two seasons playing for the Cleveland Browns, where he had only three receptions on eight targets for 21 yards and no touchdowns in 19 games played (one start). The 28-year-old former sixth-round pick (201st overall) by the Baltimore Ravens in 2020 out of SMU has mostly specialized as a kick returner on special teams in his career, returning 68 punts for 591 yards and four kickoffs for 60 yards in his five NFL seasons. Expect Proche to compete for kick-return duties in Tennessee this summer in training camp. In 62 total games played, Proche has 28 receptions for 299 yards and no touchdowns on 48 targets on offense, so he won't suddenly become fantasy relevant in Tennessee.

According to the team, Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers (knee) is officially inactive for Sunday's playoff game against the Buffalo Bills. Flowers sustained this knee injury during their Week 18 victory over the Cleveland Browns. The top wideout has been unable to practice each of the previous two weeks. Flowers was able to do a pre-game workout but was unable to turn the corner in time to suit up. Flowers has enjoyed a strong sophomore campaign as he eclipsed the century mark for the first time in his career and tallied four scores. As a result, fantasy managers should expect Rashod Bateman and Mark Andrews to lead the passing attack this evening. Bateman is a solid WR2 in DFS formats, as he should continue to see an increase in targets operating as the top option on the depth chart.
