Who Should I Start? Jauan Jennings or Zay Flowers

Tuesday, November 11, 8:44 PM

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings caught six of his nine targets for 71 receiving yards and a touchdown in Week 10. He also lost a fumble in the team's 42-26 loss to the Rams. The touchdown was Jennings' second in as many weeks and his third of the season. With Ricky Pearsall (knee) and Brandon Aiyuk (knee) out, Jennings is the 49ers' unquestioned WR1. Jennings' production has not met preseason expectations, especially while being targeted on 25.4% of routes run. Week 10 was just Jennings' second top-24 finish among wide receivers, but as long as he continues seeing that kind of opportunity share, Jennings is still worth keeping in fantasy football lineups. Another good week could be in store when the 49ers face the Cardinals in Week 11. Jennings was inactive when the teams met in Week 3, but Pearsall posted 117 yards on eight catches in that game.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers has already accrued 60 targets through eight games, which puts him on pace for the most in a single season through his three-year career. Unfortunately, he hasn't found the end zone since Week 1, but his heavy workload keeps him firmly in the WR2 conversation each week. In Week 10, he'll take on the Minnesota Vikings secondary, who are ranked as the eighth toughest matchup for opposing receiver groups. If you take the last three weeks into account, however, they've given up the second most fantasy points per game to receivers at 44.9 per game. Flowers should remain heavily involved, so he's projected as a high-end WR2 with a ceiling of low-end WR1.
