Who Should I Start? Logan Thomas or Lamar Jackson

Thursday, August 22, 6:15 PM

The San Francisco 49ers have decided to bring back tight end Logan Thomas on Thursday. The veteran tight end was cut by the organization two weeks ago. Thomas was dealing with an injury in camp, but he appears to be healthy now. The 33-year-old should be a decent option alongside George Kittle at the tight end spot. Last season, Thomas recorded 55 receptions for 496 yards and four touchdowns with the Washington Commanders. He could have streaming value if Kittle does miss any time. Outside of that, Thomas is unlikely to have weekly fantasy value as the No. 2 tight end in San Francisco.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (back) is listed as doubtful for Saturday's contest against the Green Bay Packers. Jackson exited their Week 16 contest with a back injury and was unable to participate in this week's practices. While the Ravens have not officially ruled out their star QB, he appears to be facing an uphill battle to suit up. During last weekend's contest, Jackson was replaced by veteran QB Tyler Huntley. In relief, Huntley went 9-for-10 with just 65 yards and no scores. Even if Jackson is able to suit up, managers should view him as a low-end QB1 with risk given his recent stretch of play. Over his last five games, Jackson has only been able to eclipse the 20.0 PPR point mark once. Huntley would carry low-end QB2 value facing a tough Green Bay defense that has allowed the 10th-fewest PPR points to opposing QBs and should not be started in any one-QB leagues.
