Who Should I Start? Marvin Mims Jr. or Jayden Reed

Friday, November 14, 7:39 PM

Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. (concussion) was able to practice in full this week and has been cleared to face the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday in Week 11. Mims suffered a concussion in Week 8 and missed the last two games, but he'll be back as the Broncos look to separate themselves further atop the AFC West division. It's good news for a struggling Denver offense, but things won't get any easier this weekend against a tough KC defense that is coming off its bye. The 23-year-old Mims is a big play waiting to happen, but he hasn't had enough volume in 2025 to be a realistic WR4/flex play in 12-team fantasy football leagues. Coming into Week 11, has taken a back seat to second-year man Troy Franklin, catching 22 of 32 targets for 234 yards and one touchdown in eight games. Mims' return will also put a dent in Franklin's upside in a bad matchup.

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.
