Who Should I Start? Malachi Corley or Luke McCaffrey

Wide receiver Malachi Corley is set to join the Browns' active roster in a corresponding move that shifted Cedric Tillman (hamstring) to the injured reserve. Corley was signed to the Cleveland practice squad shortly before the regular season. In 2024, Corley was drafted in the third round (65th overall) by the New York Jets but was never able to carve out a prominent role in their offense. As a rookie, Corley caught just three of his six targets for 16 yards. He added 26 yards on two rushing attempts. Fantasy managers in deeper dynasty formats should monitor his status as he could be given opportunities in the Cleveland offense if Tillman were to miss a significant portion of the season. For now, Jerry Jeudy and rookie Isaiah Bond figure to serve as the team's top wide receivers.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Luke McCaffrey hasn't had a massive role on offense this season, but he has made a handful of big plays. The second-year wideout has recorded 11 receptions for 203 yards and three touchdowns on 15 targets this season. With Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) out, McCaffrey should have some more opportunities for targets on Sunday Night Football against the Seattle Seahawks. Plus, he should benefit from having quarterback Jayden Daniels back as the starter. The 24-year-old has only two games with a route share above 50% this season, so he will need to be efficient on the limited targets he receives. McCaffrey's route share could tick up in Week 9, but he's likely to remain in a reduced role and will need to hit on a few big plays to deliver fantasy value.
