Who Should I Start? Jerry Jeudy or Darnell Mooney

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy has struggled to be efficient for most of the 2025 season, recording 38 catches for 497 yards and two touchdowns on 85 targets across 13 games. However, Cleveland's recent quarterback switch from Dillon Gabriel to Shedeur Sanders could prove to be a boost for Jeudy's production. In Cleveland's Week 14 loss to the Tennessee Titans, Jeudy recorded three catches for 76 yards and a touchdown on five targets. Sanders threw for 364 passing yards in the game, which was the first time a Cleveland quarterback had reached even 250 passing yards since Joe Flacco did it in Week 1. If Sanders is truly raising the ceiling of the Browns' offense, Juedy could be in line for a strong close to the season. He profiles as a low-end fantasy WR3 in Week 15 against the Chicago Bears.

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Darnell Mooney was limited to just one catch on four targets for six yards this past week, his fifth one-catch performance of the season in 11 games played. The 28-year-old has had an opportunity to become the team's top receiver with Drake London (knee) missing the last three weeks due to injury, however, that role appears to have been occupied by tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. The 5-foot-11 wideout played on just 77 percent of the team's offensive snaps in Week 14, while David Sills V logged 94 percent and the aforementioned Pitts totaled 92 percent. The veteran will have another chance to carve out an expanded role in Week 15 versus the Buccaneers on Thursday Night Football, with London ruled out again and against a pass defense that is middle of the road in terms of fantasy points allowed to opposing wide receivers, but a unit that has yielded the sixth-most yards in the NFL through the air this season. For what it's worth, Mooney had a touchdown reception overturned last week because he stepped on the sideline before securing the pass, which could have been his second touchdown in the last three games despite the limited volume. Still, considering the situation at quarterback and Mooney's inability to garner sufficient targets, he falls outside the WR3 range this week, making him more of a boom/bust Flex play on TNF.
