Who Should I Start? Kendrick Bourne or Malachi Corley

Saturday, December 27, 4:41 AM

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Kendrick Bourne has seemingly regained his role as the team's third wide receiver after Jauan Jennings and Ricky Pearsall (knee, ankle). Bourne had slipped behind Demarcus Robinson on the depth chart for a few weeks, but the former has outsnapped the latter in both of the 49ers' games coming out of their Week 14 bye. Bourne's involvement has been minimal, even after drawing a start last week while Pearsall was held out due to injuries. Pearsall is questionable for Week 17, as is tight end George Kittle (ankle), who is a game-time decision. Bourne's fantasy value rests on the availability of his teammates. Should both be shelved, then Bourne would have flex appeal against a soft Bears secondary, but if either or both are active, then it is hard to see Bourne eclipsing the five targets he saw last week.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Malachi Corley (concussion) has been ruled out for the remainder of his team's Week 14 matchup against the Tennessee Titans after suffering a concussion. The 23-year-old recorded one carry for two yards before getting injured. Cleveland has utilized Corley in a gadget role this season, as he entered the week with six carries for 77 yards and five receptions for 34 yards across eight games played with the Browns. Corley's absence could lead to a few more touches for Browns running backs Quinshon Judkins and Dylan Sampson. Corley is unlikely to be sidelined long-term, but he will miss the remainder of Week 14 at a minimum.
