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

Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. enjoyed an early-season stretch that saw him finish as a top 20 fantasy wideout in two of four weeks, topping out at WR8 in a Week 4 win over the Bengals. Over the past seven weeks, though, he has been a non-factor for fantasy, missing time with a concussion, and seeing little involvement since returning in Week 13. Heading into the first round of the fantasy playoffs, he no longer needs to be rostered, and he projects as RotoBaller's WR70 in a Week 15 matchup with a Packers defense that has been top-10 for most of the season at limiting opposing fantasy wide receivers.

After missing 10 games due to collarbone and foot injuries, Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed returned to the field for his team's Week 14 matchup against the Chicago Bears. In his first game back, the 25-year-old played 47% of Green Bay's offensive snaps and hauled in four receptions for 31 yards on four targets. Now that he's back in the fold, Reed profiles as the Packers' WR3 alongside Romeo Doubs and Christian Watson. However, Green Bay also has wideouts Dontayvion Wicks, Matthew Golden, and Bo Melton as capable pass-catchers in reserve roles. The Packers' deep wide receiver room limits Reed's playing time and target upside. Additionally, Green Bay has a very difficult matchup in Week 15 against the Denver Broncos. Entering the week, Denver ranks 4th in the NFL in yards per pass attempt allowed (6.3). Between the matchup and the playing time ceiling, Reed profiles as a low-end WR3/flex option for fantasy managers in Week 15.
