Who Should I Start? Justin Jefferson or Jameson Williams

Sunday, November 30, 6:57 PM

Playing alongside an undrafted rookie at quarterback, Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson caught just two of six targets for four yards in a 26-0 loss on Sunday at Seattle. Jefferson had negative receiving yardage until late in the fourth quarter as Minnesota looked woeful yet again, this time behind first-time starting quarterback Max Brosmer. The rookie tossed four interceptions, including one for a touchdown, as Minnesota gained only 162 total yards on the day. The Vikings have scored just 42 total points the past four weeks, making the prospect of starting any player on this offense -- even one as good as Jefferson -- a tough sell at the moment. Minnesota will return home to play Washington in Week 14.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams had one of the most productive games of his career in Week 13 against the Green Bay Packers, recording seven catches for 144 yards and a touchdown on 10 targets. After Lions wideout Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) went down early in the game with an ankle injury, Williams stepped up as the team's WR1. St. Brown is officially listed as questionable for the team's Week 14 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys, but he was a non-participant in practice all week. Even if St. Brown can play, he'll likely be somewhat limited, and the Lions will still be without star tight end Sam LaPorta (back) and depth wideout Kalif Raymond (ankle). All things considered, there's a solid chance that Williams will be the go-to target once again for Lions quarterback Jared Goff against the Cowboys. On paper, Dallas is a favorable matchup, as they currently rank last in the NFL in both passing yards (3,234) and passing touchdowns (28) allowed. Williams profiles as a must-start fantasy wide receiver in Week 14.
