Who Should I Start? Marquise Brown or Jordan Addison

Tuesday, December 24, 2:35 PM

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown will face the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 17. Brown returned from injured reserve in Week 16 against the Houston Texans. Brown was second on the team in catches and targets on 27% of snaps in his first game back. The 27-year-old demonstrated his ability to get open in crucial situations and make explosive plays, which bodes well for his production moving forward. Brown will hope to be more involved against the Steelers, who rank ninth in fantasy points allowed to opposing wide receivers this season. Brown is ranked WR47 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, putting him in flex range this week. It won't be easy to start Brown in the fantasy playoffs with just one game under his belt this season, but fantasy managers can consider it.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison brought in 5-of-8 targets for 35 yards and a touchdown in his team's 27-24 win against the Seattle Seahawks. Addison was Minnesota's second-leading wideout on the day, but it didn't amount to much while target-hog teammate Justin Jefferson racked up 144 yards and two touchdowns on his 13 targets (ten receptions). Still, the 22-year-old came through for fantasy managers that stuck with him -- notching his seventh TD in the last eight games. While it wasn't the most productive outing from a yardage standpoint, Addison's owners can take solace in that he was still heavily involved -- commanding at least eight targets for the fifth time since Week 11. The former first-round pick will get a tougher ask in the fantasy championship next weekend against the Green Bay Packers secondary.
