Who Should I Start? Marquise Brown or Emeka Egbuka

Tuesday, December 2, 10:43 PM

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown scored his fifth receiving touchdown of the year in the Thanksgiving Day loss to the Dallas Cowboys last Thursday, but it came on only two catches (two targets) and 20 yards. It seems like ages ago when Hollywood had 10 catches on 16 targets for 99 yards back in the season-opening loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. The 28-year-old pass-catcher had at least five targets in the first five games of the year when Rashee Rice was suspended -- Xavier Worthy also missed two games with a shoulder injury during that stretch. Since Week 5, Brown has not been targeted more than four times in a game as he's been phased out of KC's offense. In the last seven games, he has 15 catches on 20 targets for 202 yards and four scores. In a part-time role for the Chiefs, we would recommend keeping Brown on your bench in deeper fantasy leagues against the Houston Texans and their top-ranked defense in Week 14 on Sunday Night Football.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Emeka Egbuka hasn't found much success over the last few weeks. Egbuka has been held to 40 receiving yards or fewer in three of the last four games. The rookie wideout has shown great flashes, but has also posted a good amount of duds. It's also worth noting that quarterback Baker Mayfield (shoulder) is extremely banged up right now, so it's unclear how well he'll be in the passing game this weekend. Egbuka has tremendous upside, but has the floor of a WR3 for the upcoming Week 13 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals.
