Who Should I Start? Jamison Crowder or Richie James

Saturday, September 9, 9:21 PM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Jamison Crowder has been elevated to the active roster on Saturday. The veteran wideout signed with the Commanders practice squad earlier this week. He last played with the Buffalo Bills in 2022, but only played four games with the team. Despite that, Crowder has a solid track record and is worth the gamble for the Commanders. The expectation is that he'll be a depth option for the team, so he's unlikely to start in Week 1. For the moment, fantasy managers can ignore Crowder until he earns a legitimate role in the offense.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Richie James (knee) has been placed on the injured reserve on Saturday. He wasn't able to practice all week due to an MCL injury. James only played three offensive snaps in Week 2, but has an important role on special teams. There will now be a void to fill on special teams with James out for at least the next four games. He'll be eligible to return for the Week 7 matchup versus the Los Angeles Chargers. Fantasy managers can continue to ignore James in all fantasy formats.
