Who Should I Start? Jerry Jeudy or Chase Brown

Monday, September 15, 8:24 PM

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy is off to a decent, yet unspectacular, start to the 2025 season. Through two games, Jeudy has caught nine of his 16 targets for 117 scoreless yards as the Cleveland offense has struggled mightily thus far. The veteran's receiving yardage is good enough to lead the Browns so far, showing just how much moving the football has been an issue. Jeudy will look to break out at home in Week 3 against the Green Bay Packers. The Packers have been tough on defense thus far, as they shut down the Detroit Lions' receivers in Week 1 and gave up just 92 receiving yards and a touchdown combined to Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel in Week 2. Jeudy is looking like a WR4 in fantasy unless the Browns can straighten out their offensive issues.

Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown had only 43 yards off 21 carries in the Week 1 win over Cleveland. His 2.0 yards per carry was a tough pill to swallow for fantasy managers. Still, he at least found the end zone, so the afternoon wasn't a total flop. The same can't be said for the rest of the Bengals offense, with Joe Burrow throwing for 113 yards and one touchdown. To make matters worse, Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins combined for five receptions. Despite the subpar offensive showing, Cincinnati managed to pull off a narrow one-point victory. With a win in the books, Brown and company will host the Jaguars in Week 2. Without question, the Bengals have struggled to begin the season in the last few years. However, Brown and company have a great chance of turning things around. Although he sometimes struggles picking up yards on the ground, his versatility as a pass-catching back makes a difference. Sunday's game is expected to be one of the highest-scoring contests on the schedule, so both offenses may be clicking on all cylinders. All things considered, Brown should be more productive in Week 2, especially if Burrow can get the offense into the Red Zone more than he did against Cleveland. Keep Brown rolling in all fantasy lineups.
