Who Should I Start? Jason Brownlee or Tyrell Shavers

New York Jets wide receiver Jason Brownlee caught three of his five passes for 29 yards in Saturday night's preseason win over the New York Giants in the Meadowlands. Brownlee produced a long gain of 16 yards through the air in Saturday's victory over the Giants. The 25-year-old former Southern Mississippi standout hardly played for the Jets in his rookie season in 2023, coming down with five of his eight passes for 56 yards and a touchdown in seven appearances, and Brownlee will likely be buried on New York's depth chart once again if he makes the roster in 2024.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Tyrell Shavers hauled in one of two targets for 21 yards in Week 16's victory over the Cleveland Browns. Despite the Bills being without Gabe Davis and Keon Coleman, both healthy inactives in Week 16, Shavers failed to capitalize on his opportunities, as the Bills totaled fewer than 100 passing yards. The second-year receiver will hope for a bounce-back in Week 17 against the Philadelphia Eagles, who have allowed the eighth-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers this season. However, there is still a window for Shavers this week. Khalil Shakir is likely to see a lot of slot corner Cooper DeJean, and Joshua Palmer is expected to be shadowed by star cornerback Quinyon Mitchell. Quarterback Josh Allen has been electric at home this season, and both tight ends, Dawson Knox (knee) and Dalton Kincaid (knee), are questionable entering this week. While he's too risky to start in fantasy championships this week, Shavers could be a cheap DFS option against the Eagles.
