Who Should I Start? Marquise Brown or Jayden Reed

Tuesday, November 11, 10:00 PM

After failing to reach 50 receiving yards in any game between Week 2 and Week 8, Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown hauled in two catches for 73 yards on four targets in his team's Week 9 loss to the Buffalo Bills. However, with Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy ahead of him on the Chiefs' wide receiver depth chart, Brown's upside coming out of Kansas City's Week 10 bye is limited. He has not earned more than four targets in any game since Rice returned from the suspension that sidelined him for the first six games of 2025. Brown's big-play ability allows him to maintain some level of fantasy relevance. Still, he will be difficult to trust on a week-to-week basis as long as Kansas City's top pass-game targets can stay on the field. The Chiefs have a tough matchup in Week 11 against the Denver Broncos, making Brown a player for fantasy managers to avoid.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (collarbone, foot) appears to be ramping up his rehab, according to Rob Demovsky of ESPN. Reed is still on Injured Reserve, but he was "working up a sweat" on a side field during Thursday's practice. The Packers have yet to open up Reed's 21-day practice window, but that might not be far off. The 25-year-old former second-rounder is rehabbing from a broken collarbone and a fracture in his foot that has kept him sidelined since Week 2. Despite the long layoff, Reed should become a big part of Green Bay's offense when he's back in the fold. Early in his career, he's proven to have a nose for the end zone, scoring 18 touchdowns (15 receiving, three rushing) in his 35 games (24 starts). The Packers have a crowded wideout room, but Reed, who is currently rostered in 35% of Yahoo leagues, deserves to be stashed in fantasy with his return looming.
