Who Should I Start? Mason Tipton or Pat Bryant

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.

Through the first nine games of his NFL career, Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Pat Bryant has recorded 10 catches for 149 yards and a touchdown on 19 targets. With Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. (concussion) sidelined by a concussion, Bryant has stepped into the WR3 role in Denver over the past two weeks. However, Mims Jr. logged three full practices this week and does not carry an injury designation into the team's Week 11 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. Bryant should still see some snaps against Kansas City, but the return of Mims Jr. limits his breakout potential. The Chiefs are also a difficult matchup, as they have allowed the fifth-fewest passing yards (1,763) in the NFL so far this season. Bryant should remain off the radar of fantasy managers in Week 11.
