Who Should I Start? Jerry Jeudy or Xavier Worthy

Tuesday, October 14, 7:11 PM

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy caught five of his 13 targets for 43 yards in a 23-9 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 6. Jeudy led the team in targets but continued his season-long trend of doing very little with his opportunities as he was held to 48 receiving yards or fewer for the fourth straight game. Overall, Jeudy has caught 20 passes for 240 scoreless yards through five games as Cleveland's No. 1 receiver. He will now head back home to face off against the Miami Dolphins in Week 7. The Dolphins are allowing just the 23rd-most fantasy points per game to opposing wideouts, leaving Jeudy as a low-end flex option for his upcoming weekend.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy will face the Detroit Lions on Sunday night in Week 6. Worthy was listed as a DNP on Thursday after practicing in full on Wednesday, leaving his status for the weekend in doubt heading into Friday. The young receiver then logged a full practice on Friday and does not have an injury designation for Sunday night's game. Worthy had six catches for 42 yards in last week's 28-31 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. The speedster led the team in targets but finished fourth in yardage, averaging just 7.0 yards per reception. Worthy has been battling shoulder and ankle injuries, but has still been the team's WR1 in the absence of Rashee Rice. With Rice still suspended until Week 7, Worthy should lead the team in targets against Detroit. The Lions have scored the most points in the league this season, and the Chiefs will need to score often to keep up. In a game with a 52.5 O/U, Worthy should have plenty of opportunities to score fantasy points. Worthy is ranked WR11 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, making him an WR1 this week.
