Who Should I Start? Laquon Treadwell or Zay Jones

The Baltimore Ravens waived wide receiver Laquon Treadwell and placed defensive back Damarion Williams (undisclosed) on Injured Reserve on Monday. Treadwell has bounced around from the team's practice squad and the 53-man roster in 2023. The 28-year-old former first-rounder only appeared in five games with Baltimore and had one reception on three targets for 16 yards in the Week 18 regular season finale against the Pittsburgh Steelers when the Ravens were resting a lot of their regulars. Williams began the 2023 season on Injured Reserve after having ankle surgery. He was activated from IR before Week 15 but was inactive for the next three games before finally making his season debut in Week 18.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Zay Jones (hamstring, knee) returned from a two-game absence for the Week 18 meeting with the Titans. He finished with six catches (nine targets) for 47 yards. However, it was enough, as the Jags couldn't beat the Titans to earn a postseason berth. Nevertheless, Jones struggled with various injuries and underwhelming play throughout the 2023-24 campaign. Although Trevor Lawrence didn't help make things easy for Jones, fantasy managers were still disappointed with how things ended. At any rate, he's not a lock to be back in Jacksonville next season. However, Lawrence must turn things around if Jones hopes to be a week-to-week fantasy option in 2024-25.
