Who Should I Start? Justin Jefferson or Drake London

Friday, November 21, 3:24 PM

The Minnesota Vikings are going through a rough patch right now, but Justin Jefferson remains a WR1 candidate when the team travels to Green Bay in Week 12. The Vikings are averaging just 58 plays during their past three games with quarterback J.J. McCarthy, during which the offense has been a mess of drops, penalties, and bad throws. Through all of it, Jefferson still ranks 13th overall among PPR receivers, and he's still earned at least nine targets in seven straight games. Green Bay ranks ninth overall against half-PPR receivers, presenting a difficult matchup for an offense already struggling. But even as the Vikings appear committed to riding with McCarthy's ups and downs, Jefferson is still a superstar who should be in fantasy lineups come Sunday.

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London (knee) has been ruled out of Sunday's divisional matchup with the Saints. London left the team's Week 11 loss to the Panthers with what was later revealed to be a PCL sprain. With second-year quarterback Michael Penix Jr. (knee) placed on injured reserve earlier this week, the Falcons travel to New Orleans shorthanded on offense. Wide receiver Darnell Mooney and tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. will presumably be tasked with absorbing some of London's 9.6 targets per game. While Mooney has topped 35 yards only once since returning from a hamstring injury in Week 7, he has displayed chemistry with Kirk Cousins in the past, topping 100 yards twice in 2024 and recording all of his career-high five receiving touchdowns with Cousins under center.
