Who Should I Start? Kalif Raymond or Jaylin Lane

Sunday, October 12, 7:10 PM

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond (neck) is officially active for Sunday's Week 6 contest against the Kansas City Chiefs. He was listed as questionable after logging back-to-back limited practices. Raymond had been a productive special teamer through the first four weeks of the season and also caught at least one pass in each of those games. However, he exited early in Week 5, finishing with a three percent snap share and zero receptions. He'll look to return to his Week 4 form, which included two catches, 13 receiving yards, and a special teams touchdown. For now, given his role behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams in a crowded offense, Raymond can be left on waivers.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Jaylin Lane has made a big impact as a punt returner this season and has made plays when his number has been called on offense. Lane has seen more time on offense with top wide receivers Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) and Noah Brown (quad, knee), both dealing with mult-game absences. Lane caught only one ball in Washington's Week 5 win over the Chargers, but it came on a crucial 3rd and 16 deep in their own territory in the second quarter that helped sustain the drive and lead to their first touchdown of the game. And if Deebo Samuel Sr. (heel) is unable to go, Lane would likely be in line to take some of those designed and underneath targets to get the ball in his hands. Samuel looks like a true game-time decision, which is a frustrating situation on Monday night. The rookie wide receiver has upside against a Bears defense that has allowed the sixth most PPR points per game to opposing wide receivers through four games this season.
