Who Should I Start? Lamar Jackson or Bo Nix

Sunday, December 7, 9:12 PM

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson had a mediocre day as a passer in his team's Week 14 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, completing 19 of 35 pass attempts for 219 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. However, Jackson recorded 43 rushing yards on seven attempts and scored his first rushing touchdown since Week 1. The 28-year-old missed four games in October due to a hamstring injury and hasn't quite been himself since his return, averaging under 20 rushing yards per game over his last five contests heading into Week 14. While Jackson's work through the air remained below his usual standard against Pittsburgh, fantasy managers can draw some hope from the work he did with his legs in Week 14. Even amidst his relative struggles, Jackson has explosive upside and remains a must-start fantasy quarterback heading into his Week 15 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals.

After back-to-back productive games, rookie wide receiver Pat Bryant is earning praise from his quarterback, Bo Nix. Nix said that Bryant is "an every-down receiver and is getting better and better each week." In the last two games, Bryant has made eight catches on 13 targets for 124 yards, playing a 58% and 70% snap share in those games. The third-round pick from Illinois is becoming a top target for Nix, and he played the second-most snaps of any receiver for the Broncos after their bye week. Bryant and the Broncos face an easy matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 14, who have allowed the sixth-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. While Bryant is not yet a regular starter, with high praise from his quarterback and a growing role, the rookie receiver is a name to watch this week.
