Who Should I Start? Marquise Brown or Terry McLaurin

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.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin extended his scoring streak to four games on Sunday afternoon. Facing the Eagles, McLaurin brought in five of his six targets for 60 yards and a score. McLaurin found the back of the end zone on a 32-yard pass from Jayden Daniels in the second quarter. McLaurin finished the afternoon with the second-most yards and targets, in which he trailed Olamide Zaccheaus in both statistics. Over his past four contests, McLaurin has tallied six touchdowns while tallying at least 70 receiving yards in all but one game. The 29-year-old should be set up well for another productive showing next weekend against the Atlanta Falcons who have allowed the fifth-most PPR points to opposing wideouts this season.
