Who Should I Start? Malik Washington or Chimere Dike

Friday, November 14, 10:39 PM

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Malik Washington found the end zone for the second time in the last three weeks on Sunday against the Bills, and he caught multiple passes for the eighth week in a row. He has a good matchup against the Commanders this week, but his yardage totals have been underwhelming in the Dolphins' conservative passing scheme. While Washington has 30 catches, he only has 192 yards this year, and last week, he only had nine yards on his two catches. He saved his fantasy week with a touchdown against the Bills, but this week he's the No. 52 wide receiver in RotoBaller's rankings, even against the Commanders, who give up the third-most fantasy points to receivers. The Dolphins haven't given him many chances for big plays, although his volume of targets and catches does make him a deep league option to monitor.

Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Chimere Dike (chest) was listed as a full participant in Wednesday's practice despite leaving the Week 11 loss to the Houston Texans early with a chest injury. Dike should be fine to play in Week 12 versus the visiting Seattle Seahawks in a game in which the Titans are probably going to have to throw often. Meanwhile, fellow rookie Elic Ayomanor (hamstring) didn't practice on Wednesday after getting hurt on Sunday, and Calvin Ridley (leg) is done for the season after breaking his leg. The 23-year-old Dike could be in line for a heavy target load this weekend against Seattle, which would make him an attractive flex consideration in fantasy football. The fourth-rounder has caught only three passes for 19 yards in the last two games, but he did have 11 catches on 12 targets for 163 yards and a touchdown in Weeks 7 and 8 combined.
