Who Should I Start? Jordan Whittington or Jermaine Jackson

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Jordan Whittington looked to be settled in as the fifth or sixth option to start the season. Now, Whittington might find himself with an every week role. The Rams are expected to be without both Puka Nacua (knee) and Cooper Kupp (ankle) for multiple games. That being said, Demarcus Robinson, Tyler Johnson, and Tutu Atwell figure to be the starters heading into Week 3. Whittington figures to be the primary backup receiver and should see some action as well. He hauled in both his targets for 22 yards in the Week 2 loss to the Arizona Cardinals. The sixth-round rookie isn't a must-start option, but could be worth holding in deep leagues or dynasty formats with the Rams shorthanded.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Jermaine Jackson (undisclosed) was waived and reverted to the IR on Sunday. The rookie receiver and return specialist suffered an undisclosed injury and will spend some time on the IR while the team tries out some more receivers in the meantime. They've been thin at the position through the early stages of training camp which prompted them to bring in Samson Nacua and Marquez Callaway. Jackson has a chance to come back and make the team, but it seems to be an uphill battle unless the injury issues continue with the receiving corps.
