Who Should I Start? Josh Reynolds or Dontayvion Wicks

Monday, September 16, 12:35 AM

Denver Broncos wide receiver Josh Reynolds caught four of his five targets for a team-high 93 yards in the team's 13-6 loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates on Sunday in Week 2. Reynolds has now led the Broncos in receiving yards in each of the first two games of the season. His four receptions were tied for second on the team, while his five targets were also tied for second with Lil'Jordan Humphrey and running back Javonte Williams. The 29-year-old was on the injury report this week due to an Achilles injury, but he appeared fine on Sunday and has now developed a nice little bond with struggling rookie quarterback Bo Nix. The inexperienced QB has mostly spread the ball around in an inefficient offense through two weeks, but Reynolds has been the biggest beneficiary. He's worth a look as a bench stash in deeper fantasy leagues but can't be considered much more than a low-upside WR4/flex in a bad offense.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks had a solid day's work in the Packers' 16-10 win at home against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 2. Wicks earned a team-leading four targets, hauling in three of those targets for 26 yards. The lone passing touchdown from starting quarterback Malik Willis was scored by Wicks as he caught a 14-yard touchdown late in the first quarter. With just 14 passing attempts to go around for the Packers, Wicks made the most of his opportunities. While he's still behind in the pecking order among the team's wide receivers, Wicks is utilized plenty in the Packers' offense. For fantasy purposes, Wicks is tough to trust, so he's not going to be a recommended start in fantasy football when the Packers head to Tennessee to face the Titans in Week 3.
