Who Should I Start? Mason Tipton or Beaux Collins

Sunday, August 17, 5:27 PM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Mason Tipton continues to impress in the preseason, recording six receptions for 100 yards in Sunday's 17-17 tie against the Jaguars, including a 45-yard reception downfield on a great ball from second-year quarterback Spencer Rattler. Tipton's speed also drew a 45-yard pass interference penalty, setting up a Saints field goal to start the third quarter. He has shown that his quickness could play a key role for New Orleans this season, as he also caught a 54-yard touchdown in the first preseason game against the Chargers off a pass from Tyler Shough. With veterans Brandin Cooks, Cedrick Wilson Jr., and Dante Pettis on the roster, it remains to be seen how significant Tipton's role will be behind solidified starters Chris Olave and Rashid Shaheed. Still, he is a player to monitor if his usage expands in the regular season.

New York Giants wide receiver Beaux Collins worked with the first team offense on Tuesday following the departure of Jalin Hyatt (leg), who exited practice with an apparent leg injury. Star wideout Malik Nabers (toe) is sitting out minicamp with a toe injury. According to Giants reporter Art Stapleton, Collins caught a touchdown from Russell Wilson in 7-on-7 drills and is making an impact as an undrafted rookie free agent. Collins spent three seasons at Clemson before one year at Notre Dame, totalling 132 receptions for 1,780 yards and 14 touchdowns in 48 collegiate games. New York's wide receiver group behind Nabers leaves a lot to be desired, so there's a real path toward making the 53-man roster for Collins. He should be on the radar in deeper dynasty fantasy football setups.
