Who Should I Start? Luke McCaffrey or Chimere Dike

Tuesday, November 4, 4:48 PM

The Washington Commanders have placed wide receiver Luke McCaffrey (shoulder) on injured reserve after suffering a broken collarbone during the opening kickoff of their blowout loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night. McCaffrey has been an impactful kick returner and made multiple splash plays on offense this season, but is now expected to miss the remainder of the 2025 season. The second-year wideout out of Rice had the third-highest yards per kick return (29.6) and scored three touchdowns on only 11 total receptions as a receiver. The Washington Commanders have been wiped out by injury this season, especially at wide receiver. Veteran Deebo Samuel Sr., rookie Jaylin Lane, and the recently signed Treylon Burks will all be expected to see an increase in targets over the second half of the season.

Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Chimere Dike recorded a 67-yard punt return for a touchdown in Week 9 but was otherwise held in check, finishing the game with one catch for five yards on three targets. Dike had recorded 11 catches for 163 yards and a touchdown over his last two games heading into the week, so his Week 9 production was a bit of a letdown for fantasy managers. Still, the 23-year-old's playing time is trending in the right direction, as he's now played at least 87% of Tennessee's offensive snaps in each of its last two games. Dike appears to be emerging as a key weapon for Titans quarterback Cameron Ward. Tennessee's overall struggles as an offense limit Dike's fantasy ceiling, but he should still be rostered in all leagues with 12 or more teams as the Titans hit their Week 10 bye.
