Who Should I Start? Noah Brown or Roman Wilson

Wednesday, September 3, 3:50 PM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Noah Brown (knee) was listed as a limited participant on the Wednesday on the team's first injury report of the year, according to Dan Salomne of Giants.com. Brown was injured all the way back in June in minicamp, but now we know he's been tending to a knee injury. It's good news that he's practicing at all, but he might have to get in a full practice the next two days to avoid a questionable tag heading into the Week 1 regular-season opener on Sunday against the division-rival New York Giants. Now that Terry McLaurin is no longer holding out, the 29-year-old Brown won't be a realistic starting lineup option in fantasy if he's active this weekend after the addition of Deebo Samuel Sr. to the offense. He is competing primarily with Luke McCaffrey for Washington's WR3 role in 2025.

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Roman Wilson finished with two receptions for 72 yards on four targets in a 17-14 preseason loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The second-year pro did all of his damage in the contest's opening quarter. He ran past multiple defenders to secure a 42-yard deep ball from Mason Rudolph and later found space on a crossing route to gain 30 yards on a pass from Skylar Thompson. After a rookie season plagued by injuries, Wilson has shown promise heading into the 2025-2026 campaign. With teammate Calvin Austin III (abdomen) currently injured, Wilson has a clear path to earning the WR2 role behind D.K. Metcalf. The 24-year-old will look to build on this strong performance in Pittsburgh's final exhibition game against the Carolina Panthers.
