Who Should I Start? Jerry Jeudy or Jaxon Smith-Njigba

Saturday, October 11, 8:05 AM

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy is off to a slow start to his 2025 season. Jeudy has caught just 15 of 35 targets for 197 scoreless yards in five games thus far. While the volume has been there for Jeudy, he has struggled with efficiency while catching passes from both Joe Flacco and Dillon Gabriel. Jeudy will look to turn things around against the Pittsburgh Steelers on the road in Week 6. The Steelers have struggled to slow opposing passing attacks this year, allowing the seventh-most fantasy points per game to opposing wideouts through four games. While the matchup is enticing, Jeudy's lack of production this year leaves him as a desperation flex option this weekend in fantasy.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver continued his unbelievable 2025 campaign with a 162-yard explosion against the Jaguars in Week 6. Smith-Njigba is positioning himself in such a way that gives him a legitimate shot at finishing as the WR1 overall in fantasy. JSN has developed a quick chemistry with quarterback Sam Darnold. He has scored at least 18.3 PPR fantasy points in every game but one this season. He is already on pace to top his career high of six touchdown receptions as well. Smith-Njigba's production is matchup proof. He seems to be able to find room against zone coverage and beat defensive backs in man coverage with ease. Darnold continues to look for Smith-Njigba in every situation. Houston will provide an interesting test for JSN in Week 7, but he should absolutely remain in every lineup.
