Who Should I Start? Kirk Cousins or Keke Coutee

Wednesday, March 13, 8:49 PM

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins (Achilles) said his recovery from a torn right Achilles that he suffering on Oct. 29 (Week 8) has been progressing "up and to the right." He also said that he's "optimistic to be full speed at practice" before the team breaks for summer in June. It's quite the optimistic statement from the 35-year-old veteran, but even if he's not quite full-go at the end of the team's offseason program, Cousins should be able to take part in training camp at the end of July. It's especially important since Cousins will be learning a new offense in Atlanta and trying to gel with his new receivers. The talent surrounding him shouldn't be a problem, as he'll have Bijan Robinson, Drake London and Kyle Pitts to work with. Fantasy managers should be more considered about an aging QB coming off a serious injury.

The Miami Dolphins released wide receiver Keke Coutee on Monday. Coutee started the offseason with the New Orleans Saints but latched on with the Dolphins earlier this month after he was released. He now finds himself back on the open market mere weeks before the start of the 2023 regular season. The 26-year-old former fourth-round pick of the Houston Texans in 2018 out of Texas Tech spent the last two years with the Indianapolis Colts, catching only two passes for 25 yards in 10 games (zero starts). In his three seasons in Houston, he caught 83 of his 117 targets for 941 yards and four touchdowns in 23 games (10 starts). Coutee is obviously way off the fantasy radar right now.
