Who Should I Start? KaVontae Turpin or Derius Davis

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver KaVontae Turpin converted five targets into four catches for a team-high 53 receiving yards during Thursday's Week 13 win over the New York Giants. Turpin is primarily a special teams contributor and is typically inconsistent on offense, but we can't ignore that he has three-plus catches and 50-plus yards in two of his last three games. His expanded role was particularly surprising this week given that Brandin Cooks made his return from injured reserve, so Turpin was fourth on the depth chart. The 28-year-old should be avoided in leagues with 14 or fewer teams, but he's at least worth monitoring in deeper formats.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Derius Davis scored a key touchdown in a Week 16 win over the Denver Broncos on Thursday Night Football. Davis appeared to be much more involved in this game, recording one carry and two targets, but shuffling around in the backfield several more times throughout the game. Davis scored his touchdown on a perfect 19-yard pass from Justin Herbert in the fourth quarter. In total, he lost three yards on the ground with his one rush but gained 31 yards through the air with his two catches. Davis was an important part of the Chargers win but is unlikely to develop much fantasy value for the remainder of the season.
