Who Should I Start? Kevin Austin Jr. or Kaden Davis

Sunday, January 4, 8:27 AM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Kevin Austin Jr. is expected to have an expanded role in Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons. The Saints will be without Chris Olave (illness) and Mason Tipton (groin) for the regular-season finale. The absence of those players should push Austin into the No. 1 wideout role in this offense. With all the injuries to the Saints' wideouts, Dante Pettis should also see an increase in target share on Sunday. Austin made himself known to the league when he hauled in four receptions for 52 yards and a touchdown in Week 17's win over the Tennessee Titans. Austin was able to do that with Olave healthy for that game, which means he should be able to produce more without him this weekend. Fantasy managers with something on the line this week can use Austin as a FLEX play, or in DFS contests, might want to target Austin as he's priced at only $3,400 on DraftKings.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Kaden Davis caught all three of his targets for 23 yards and two touchdowns in a 30-10 win over the Carolina Panthers in preseason action on Friday. Davis made a splash in the win, catching both of Shedeur Sanders' touchdown passes in the contest. The second-year wideout played sparingly for the Browns on special teams in 2024 but is looking to carve out a larger role as a pass-catcher heading into his sophomore season. He will look to stay hot in Cleveland's second preseason game, which will be next Saturday against the Philadelphia Eagles.
