Who Should I Start? JuJu Smith-Schuster or CeeDee Lamb

Saturday, October 11, 11:08 AM

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster could be entering his final week of fantasy relevance. Through five games, the veteran has caught 16 of 21 targets for 168 yards and a touchdown, primarily operating out of the slot. Smith-Schuster has been a steady part of the Chiefs' passing attack, logging 74% of snaps and routes, but that role is likely to diminish soon. With Rashee Rice set to return from suspension in Week 7, Smith-Schuster's playing time and target share could take a significant hit. For Week 6, however, he draws a favorable matchup against a Lions defense that's allowed the fourth-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. Smith-Schuster carries deep-league FLEX appeal in what could be his final start-worthy week for Kansas City.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (ankle) was upgraded to a full practice participant on Friday and was removed from the Week 7 injury report, according to Jon Machota of The Athletic. Lamb will officially return to play on Sunday against the division-rival Washington Commanders for the first time since suffering a high-ankle sprain in the Week 3 loss to the Chicago Bears. Fellow wideout KaVontae Turpin (foot) will also return for Dallas after missing the last two games. The 26-year-old said on Thursday that he was expecting to return this weekend and that he won't be on any workload restrictions in his first game back. Well, there you have it. Lamb will be back as Dallas' WR1 and will be returning to a plus matchup against Washington's secondary. Get him back into your starting lineups. Lamb's return will relegate George Pickens to WR2 duties.
