Who Should I Start? Joshua Palmer or Bryce Young

Friday, October 31, 12:07 PM

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said that wide receiver Joshua Palmer (ankle, knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 9 contest against the Kansas City Chiefs, according to Maddy Glab of BuffaloBills.com. Palmer returned to practice on Thursday, but he was moving around gingerly and will now end up missing a second straight game. Struggling second-year wideout Keon Coleman wasn't able to take advantage of Palmer sitting out in last week's blowout win over the Carolina Panthers, catching three of four targets for 30 yards. With the 26-year-old Palmer missing another game, Elijah Moore, Tyrell Shavers, and Curtis Samuel should battle for WR3 snaps again behind Coleman and Khalil Shakir, but it's really hard to trust anyone outside of Shakir in starting fantasy football lineups at the moment, especially in a tough matchup against KC's defense.

Bryce Young went 11-for-20 for 102 yards and one interception in the Carolina Panthers' 16-13 upset victory over the Green Bay Packers in Week 9. After missing last week's game due to an ankle injury, Young logged his worst fantasy performance of the 2025 season this week, registering only 4.0 fantasy points. The third-year quarterback also recorded the lowest number of passing yards in a game, failing to pass for a touchdown for the first time this season, and had his lowest completion percentage since Week 1 (55%). Despite Young's struggles, the Panthers won this game through strong performances on defense and the running game. Rico Dowdle scored the Panthers' two touchdowns, while the defense held the Packers to one TD and two field goals. Fantasy players who roster Young in superflex leagues can consider starting him against the Saints in Week 10. New Orleans allowed four TD passes to Matthew Stafford in Week 9.
