Who Should I Start? Jaylin Noel or Chimere Dike

Saturday, November 8, 5:38 AM

Houston Texans wide receiver Jaylin Noel had a few good weeks while filling in for Christian Kirk, but with Kirk back from his hamstring injury last week, Noel didn't have a catch and lost three yards on his only carry to finish with negative fantasy points. The rookie from Iowa State still has upside, but he's not likely to be involved enough in this week's contest to be relevant for fantasy. With Davis Mills replacing C.J. Stroud (concussion), the offense will likely be more conservative, and Kirk and Nico Collins will do most of the heavy lifting at receiver since they're back from injury. This week, Noel is only the No. 81 WR in RotoBaller's rankings, leaving him well outside of a starter spot in almost all formats.

Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Chimere Dike recorded a 67-yard punt return for a touchdown in Week 9 but was otherwise held in check, finishing the game with one catch for five yards on three targets. Dike had recorded 11 catches for 163 yards and a touchdown over his last two games heading into the week, so his Week 9 production was a bit of a letdown for fantasy managers. Still, the 23-year-old's playing time is trending in the right direction, as he's now played at least 87% of Tennessee's offensive snaps in each of its last two games. Dike appears to be emerging as a key weapon for Titans quarterback Cameron Ward. Tennessee's overall struggles as an offense limit Dike's fantasy ceiling, but he should still be rostered in all leagues with 12 or more teams as the Titans hit their Week 10 bye.
