Who Should I Start? Joshua Palmer or Travis Hunter

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Joshua Palmer did not make an impact in Week 3's 31-21 win over the visiting Miami Dolphins, catching his lone target for a gain of five yards. The former Los Angeles Charger saw nine targets in Week 1, but has had minimal output since then, accounting for just three receptions over the prior two weeks. Furthermore, his snap share has diminished in each game, hitting a low in their matchup with the Dolphins (43%). For now, it appears Buffalo prefers fellow wideouts Keon Coleman and Khalil Shakir in two-wide sets. Additionally, tight end Dalton Kincaid will siphon away his fair share of looks, making Palmer more of a low-floor WR5 option with modest upside in shootouts.

Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Liam Coen said that injuries at wide receiver and/or cornerback won't affect rookie two-way star Travis Hunter's usage. Right now, Hunter is playing just one position at receiver and one at cornerback, although he will build more versatility in years to come. When Dyami Brown (shoulder) was injured in the Week 3 win over the Houston Texans, Parker Washington played more instead of Hunter. The Heisman Trophy winner has played out of the slot for 63 percent of his routes through his first three NFL games, and he's caught 10 of his 16 targets for 76 scoreless yards. The 22-year-old had just one catch on two targets for 21 yards last week and was more involved on defense than ever before, which is not what his fantasy managers want to see. It sounds like Hunter's role on offense won't necessarily increase if Brown cannot play in Week 4 against the San Francisco 49ers.
