Who Should I Start? JuJu Smith-Schuster or Isaac TeSlaa

Saturday, November 8, 10:29 AM

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster has fallen off the fantasy radar after three lower-volume outings. The veteran receiver saw his snap share fall from 63 percent to 36 percent when Rashee Rice returned from suspension in Week 7, and he's been held to fewer than one-third of the snaps ever since then. During that three-week span, he had six total catches, bottoming out last week with just one target, one catch, and two receiving yards. The 28-year-old now finds himself behind Rice, Travis Kelce, Xavier Worthy, and Marquise Brown in the pecking order. As long as those pass catchers stay healthy, Smith-Schuster will remain off the fantasy radar on the other side of the Chiefs' Week 10 bye.

Detroit Lions rookie wide receiver Isaac TeSlaa has recorded eight catches for 120 yards and four touchdowns on 14 targets across 13 games so far this season. The 23-year-old's most productive stretch has been over the last two weeks, where he's hauled in four receptions for 55 yards and two touchdowns on five targets. The Lions have played each of their last two games without wide receiver Kalif Raymond (ankle), which has opened the door for TeSlaa to fill the team's WR3 role alongside Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams. However, Raymond returned to practice in a limited capacity this week and is officially listed as questionable for Detroit's Week 15 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. If Raymond returns, it could significantly impact TeSlaa's playing time. Should Raymond remain sidelined, TeSlaa could have flex appeal as a touchdown-dependent dart throw for deep-league fantasy managers in Week 15.
