Who Should I Start? Jauan Jennings or Xavier Worthy

Thursday, December 11, 10:26 AM

After a slow start to the 2025 season, San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings has proved himself as a must-start receiver moving into the fantasy playoffs. Jennings has caught a touchdown in four of his last five starts and has averaged 13.9 PPR fantasy points per game since Week 9. His hot streak has gotten him back to his WR1 role in San Francisco, ahead of Ricky Pearsall and Brandon Aiyuk. With Aiyuk (knee) unlikely to play in 2025, Jennings has no reason to slow down. He faces the Tennessee Titans in Week 15, who have allowed the sixth-most receiving yards to wide receivers in 2025, and struggled to maintain Browns rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders in the snow in Week 14. Fantasy managers can fully trust Jennings as a starting option in the fantasy playoffs, as he looks to extend his touchdown streak following the bye.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy has often taken a backseat to Rashee Rice and Travis Kelce this season, but this week, he will also have to contend with one of the toughest defenses in the league. Worthy caught four passes for 61 yards and rushed twice for 13 yards in last week's Thanksgiving loss to the Dallas Cowboys. The speedy wideout finished second on the team in receiving yardage, but it should be tougher sledding this week against Houston. The Texans defense has allowed the third-fewest fantasy points to opposing wide receivers this season, which does not bode well for Worthy, given his lower target share. Worthy is ranked WR40 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, making him a deeper league flex option in Week 14.
