Who Should I Start? Jaxon Smith-Njigba or Xavier Worthy

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba caught 10 of 11 targets for 110 yards in a Week 11 win over the San Francisco 49ers. Smith-Njigba led the Seahawks in targets and dominated the middle of the field. The question coming out of the Seahawks' bye was how they might use Smith-Njigba moving forward. If the last two games are any indication, he is going to be a focal point in the offense. Prior to his last two games, Smith-Njigba had been relatively inconsistent. He had a decent target share, but he was a middle-of-the-road wide receiver in fantasy. On a day in which quarterback Geno Smith only threw for 221 yards, it is encouraging that Smith-Njigba had 110 receiving yards. He is starting to build a lot of momentum in this offense.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy caught four passes for 61 yards and a touchdown in the 21-30 loss to the Buffalo Bills. Worthy looked like he was in for a big game with one carry, four catches, and a touchdown early on, but he was held without another touch for the remainder of the contest. The Chiefs were handed their first loss of the season, but it was encouraging to see Worthy be an essential piece of the offense. Worthy will look to carry this momentum into next week's contest against the Carolina Panthers, who rank 14th in fantasy points allowed to opposing wide receivers this season. Despite this strong showing, it won't be easy to trust Worthy in starting lineups until he displays some consistency from week to week.
