Who Should I Start? Jameson Williams or Zay Flowers

Friday, November 7, 10:27 AM

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams has spent most of the 2025 season looking like a fantasy bust, as he's recorded just 21 catches for 355 yards and three touchdowns on 36 targets across eight games. However, Williams has recorded at least six targets, 66 receiving yards, and a touchdown in two out of his last three outings. The 24-year-old remains the ultimate high-ceiling, low-floor player. Sandwiched in between impressive outings in Week 6 and Week 9 is a zero-catch performance in Week 7. Still, Week 10 against the Washington Commanders looks like it could be a boom matchup for Williams. The Commanders are allowing the most yards per reception (13.1) in the NFL so far this season and will enter Week 10 with multiple key injuries in their secondary. Williams profiles as a solid WR3 option for fantasy managers this week against Washington.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers gets his starting quarterback back on the field for the Thursday night contest with the Miami Dolphins. While he posted a low-level WR2 performance in Week 8, his best games came during Weeks 1, 2, and 4. One of the reasons why Flowers isn't projected as a WR1 is that the Dolphins are the number-one ranked unit against opposing receivers in fantasy football this year. They allow 25.84 points to opposing receiver groups on average, and when Jackson is on the field, he tends to spread the ball around to his pass-catchers a lot more than any of their backups. So, even with the firepower returning to the offense, Flowers projects to be around WR16 this week.
