Who Should I Start? Marvin Mims Jr. or Xavier Legette

Friday, November 21, 3:30 PM

Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. probably finds himself on the waiver wire in most fantasy football leagues with the Broncos headed on their bye in Week 12. Mims caught six of seven targets for a season-high 85 yards in the team's miraculous comeback win over the New York Giants in Week 7, but then he suffered a concussion the following week against the Dallas Cowboys and missed Weeks 9 and 10. In his return to action in Sunday's big win over the Kansas City Chiefs, the 23-year-old played a season-low 24% of the offensive snaps and was not targeted at all. The former second-rounder still has plenty of big-play ability, but during his time away with a concussion, Troy Franklin and rookie Pat Bryant became more involved on offense, and that could continue in Week 13 for a Sunday night contest against Washington. Until further notice, Mims is off the fantasy radar as Denver's WR4.

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Xavier Legette (hip) is practicing on Thursday after injuring his hip late in the Week 12 overtime win over the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday, according to Joe Person of The Athletic. Head coach Dave Canales said that Legette was a full participant on Thursday, which means he should be fine to play on Monday night versus the San Francisco 49ers. The 24-year-old had one of his best performances of the year on Sunday before injuring his hip, catching four of his eight targets for 83 yards and a touchdown. It was Legette's third touchdown of the year and first since Oct. 19. The former first-rounder has been Carolina's No. 2 this year behind rookie Tetairoa McMillan, but he's been pretty inconsistent for his fantasy managers. Legette has had only two games with over 31 receiving yards. The Niners have been a top-10 matchup for opposing WRs this year, but Legette's volatility makes him a boom/bust WR4/flex in fantasy in Week 12.
