Who Should I Start? Jauan Jennings or Jahmyr Gibbs

Sunday, December 14, 9:24 AM

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings should benefit from a favorable matchup against the Tennessee Titans in Week 15. While the Titans' pass defense has been better than their run defense, they've still allowed the sixth-most receiving yards and seventh-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers in 2025. Jennings has been one of the more dependable targets in San Francisco, scoring a touchdown in four of his last five games. During that span, he ranks as the overall WR20 in PPR leagues. He'll face competition from Christian McCaffrey and lose some targets to George Kittle, but there's no denying that Jennings is the best true wide receiver on the 49ers, especially with Ricky Pearsall catching just five passes over his last three games. Jennings is the overall WR23 in RotoBaller's latest fantasy rankings, and he should be started in all leagues.

Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs posted an underwhelming performance in his team's Week 15 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, recording 58 scrimmage yards and zero touchdowns on 17 touches. The 23-year-old's 3.4 yards per touch against Los Angeles was his third-worst mark of the season and his worst since Week 9 against the Minnesota Vikings. On the bright side, Gibbs continues to be a featured player in the Lions' passing game. He saw seven targets in Week 15 and has earned 38 targets across five games since Detroit tight end Sam LaPorta (back) was placed on Injured Reserve with a back injury. Gibbs also out-snapped fellow Lions running back David Montgomery 52 to 18 in Week 15, marking the fifth straight game where Gibbs has logged at least 20 more snaps than his backfield running mate. Despite the frustrating showing against the Rams, Gibbs remains a must-start fantasy running back in Week 16 against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
