Who Should I Start? Nick Westbrook-Ikhine or Jalen McMillan

Friday, November 14, 10:49 PM

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine has played a lot of snaps since the injury to Tyreek Hill (knee), but he hasn't turned that into much production. His snap share also dropped a little bit last week against the Bills, even though he still played 47% of snaps, the second-most of any receiver on the team. In that game, Westbrook-Ikhine only had one catch for seven yards and has only had four catches in the last three weeks combined. He's in a favorable matchup early on Sunday morning against the Commanders, but he's not getting enough work to be a regular contributor in most fantasy formats. He's the WR83 in RotoBaller's Week 11 rankings.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Jalen McMillan (neck) was seen on Thursday without a neck brace, and he's supposedly targeting a return in December, according to Greg Auman of FOX Sports. McMillan's 21-day practice window has not yet been opened, though, as he recovers from multiple broken bones in his neck and a severe sprain that he suffered in the preseason. It's good news that the 23-year-old might be able to return next month as the Bucs push toward a playoff berth, especially with veteran wideout Mike Evans (collarbone) unlikely to contribute again during the regular season. McMillan's role if/when he returns is unclear, though, and injured receiver Chris Godwin (leg) could also be back by then. McMillan may be the WR4 behind Godwin and rookies Emeka Egbuka and Tez Johnson when he's activated, which means he shouldn't be a priority stash in fantasy leagues at this time.
