Who Should I Start? Joshua Palmer or Jayden Higgins

Saturday, October 4, 6:41 PM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Joshua Palmer has seen his involvement in the offense diminish significantly since his strong Week 1 showing. After drawing nine targets in the season opener, Palmer has managed just seven combined over the past three games, falling behind Khalil Shakir and Keon Coleman in the pecking order. Through four weeks, he's totaled only 10 receptions for 138 yards, failing to provide consistent fantasy production or scoring upside. With Buffalo's passing attack spreading the ball around and Palmer's role shrinking each week, fantasy managers can safely move on in all formats. There are likely more impactful options available on the waiver wire capable of offering higher volume and better week-to-week reliability than Palmer at this point in the season.

Houston Texans wide receiver Jayden Higgins only had one catch in Week 4 against the Titans, but he made the most of it, hauling in a 26-yard touchdown strike from C.J. Stroud. He only played 31 snaps compared to Xavier Hutchinson's 48 snaps, but he was the more productive option, even though he only had one target. The No. 34 overall pick in the NFL Draft is still battling for playing time and not making a significant enough impact to be a fantasy option just yet. However, he does have the potential for big plays like he showed last week and could work his way into a larger role as the season progresses. For now, he's not a strong starting option, though, since he's only the No. 67 WR in RotoBaller's Week 5 rankings.
