Who Should I Start? Keenan Allen or Emeka Egbuka

Friday, September 26, 3:44 PM

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen once again proved to be quarterback Justin Herbert's most trusted option in the team's 23-20 win over the Denver Broncos, catching seven of 11 targets for 65 yards and a touchdown. The veteran commands a stellar 26.2% target share and a 40% red-zone target share over three games, making him a consistent scoring threat. Facing the 0-3 New York Giants' vulnerable secondary, Allen could be set up for an active day. Though the potential for the Chargers to lean on the run game if the score gets out of hand could slightly cap his volume. RotoBaller raises Allen to WR25 this week. He is a borderline WR2 and a strong start in all formats, especially PPR.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie wide receiver Emeka Egbuka recorded four catches for 101 yards and a touchdown on 10 targets in his team's 31-25 Week 4 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 22-year-old has now recorded 18 catches for 282 yards and four touchdowns on 31 targets through the first four games of his NFL career. With veteran wideout Mike Evans (hamstring) sidelined by a hamstring injury, Egbuka and Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin tied for the team lead in targets against the Eagles in Week 4. For as long as Evans remains out, Egbuka could be the number one option in the Tampa Bay passing game for quarterback Baker Mayfield. Egbuka profiles as a must-start fantasy wide receiver going into a Week 5 matchup with the Seattle Seahawks.
