Who Should I Start? Noah Brown or Jack Bech

Washington Commanders wide receiver Noah Brown (ribs) has been ruled out for the remainder of his team's Week 15 matchup against the New York Giants due to a rib injury. Brown suffered a back injury earlier in the game that he was able to return from, but his day is now done due to a rib ailment. The 29-year-old recorded one catch for 28 yards on one target before exiting the game. It's been an injury-marred 2025 for Brown, as he's appeared in just four games for Washington this season. Without him, Commanders wideouts Jaylin Lane and Treylon Burks could both see more playing time alongside star wide receivers Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel Sr.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jack Bech is coming off the best game of his rookie season. He caught all six of his targets for 50 yards while playing 82% of the snaps last Sunday against the Denver Broncos. He's certainly trending up in fantasy football after his big game, but his floor will take a hit this week with Kenny Pickett starting at quarterback over Geno Smith (back, shoulder) in Week 15. He could also suffer from a difficult matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles, who have allowed the 10th-fewest fantasy points and second-fewest touchdowns to opposing wide receivers in 2025. Bech could certainly replicate last week's strong showing, but he could also struggle to develop any sort of rapport with Pickett while playing against a very solid Eagles secondary. As a result, the rookie ranks as the overall WR69 in RotoBaller's Week 15 fantasy football rankings, and he can be benched or dropped in most leagues.
