Who Should I Start? Noah Brown or Ray-Ray McCloud III

Saturday, December 6, 4:41 PM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Noah Brown (groin, knee) was activated off injured reserve and will play in Week 14 against the Minnesota Vikings. Brown's 21-day practice window was opened last week, but he was ultimately held out for Week 13's game against the Denver Broncos. The 29-year-old wideout has missed 10 consecutive games due to groin and knee injuries. Washington's offense is now as close to full health as it's been all season, with No. 1 wide receiver Terry McLaurin returning last week and second-year quarterback Jayden Daniels (elbow) returning on Sunday. Brown will be fourth in the pecking order for targets behind McLaurin, Deebo Samuel Sr., and Zach Ertz in his return, and profiles only as a deep league option in Week 14 against the Vikings.

According to Dan Salomone of Giants.com, the New York Giants have elevated wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud III from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Sunday's matchup with the hosting Chicago Bears. McCloud III will suit up for a second consecutive game for the Giants after joining the squad roughly two weeks ago. In his debut, the 29-year-old played the second-most snaps of all New York wideouts (91%). However, he was targeted just once (1/5). While he may boast more work as he becomes more comfortable in his new surroundings, the Giants' passing offense has not found consistent success supporting multiple fantasy wide receivers. McCloud III will rank as RotoBaller's PPR WR88 for his clash with Chicago.
