Who Should I Start? Nelson Agholor or Demarcus Robinson

Friday, December 20, 12:26 PM

The Baltimore Ravens downgraded wide receiver Nelson Agholor (concussion) to out for the Week 16 contest on Saturday against the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers due to his concussion. It doesn't come as much of a surprise after Agholor missed practice all week. Additionally, fellow wideout Rashod Bateman (foot) is questionable to play this weekend due to a foot injury that had him in a walking boot on Thursday. If the Ravens are without both Agholor and Bateman, Zay Flowers and tight end Mark Andrews will be in line for bigger target shares against a tough defense. Tight end Isaiah Likely and receivers Tylan Wallace and Devontez Walker would also be on the field more in passing situations for the Ravens. Agholor has 13 receptions for 231 yards and two TDs in 14 games on the year and hasn't really been on the fantasy radar at all. He'll hope to clear concussion protocol in time for Week 17.

Even though Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Demarcus Robinson (shoulder) has scored a career-high seven touchdowns in 14 games for the Rams this year, he cannot be trusted in starting fantasy lineups in Week 16 on the road against the New York Jets on Sunday. It's pretty impressive that Robinson has seven touchdowns while working behind target hogs Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp. The 30-year-old has been battling through a shoulder injury of late, which could be part of the reason he's gone without a catch on just two targets in the last two games against the San Francisco 49ers and Buffalo Bills. In the two previous games, he had four catches on six targets for 64 yards and a touchdown. Robinson should get more involved this weekend in New York, but against a Jets defense that has allowed the sixth-fewest half-PPR points per game to the position, we'd stay away from Robinson this week.
